Endothermic reaction. Dissolution of ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) in water is an endothermic reaction, i.e. the energy is absorbed from the surroundings: NH4NO3 -> (NH4)+ + (NO3)-. Here 30 g of ammonium nitrate is added to a beaker with 120 mL of water, initially at 25 degrees Celsius (left frame). After ammonium nitrate is dissolved, the temperature drops to 12.7 degrees Celsius (right frame). | |
