Worksheet Energy Changes Chemical Reactions ks3

1. The document is a worksheet about energy changes in chemical reactions for middle school science students. 2. It asks students to identify whether the temperature increases or decreases in exothermic and endothermic reactions, and to provide examples of each. 3. Students are asked to analyze temperature changes in sample reactions to determine whether they are exothermic or endothermic, and to identify the reaction with the largest energy change. 4. The document tests the students' understanding that enthalpy change is negative for exothermic reactions and positive for endothermic reactions.
