When I2(g) reacts
with Cl2(g) to
form ICl(g) according to the following
equation, energy is released into the surroundings.
I2(g) + Cl2(g) 2 ICl(g)
Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?
What is the sign of ΔH for the reaction (negative or
positive)?
Would the energy of the surrounding increase or decrease as a
result of this process?
