As NH₄NO₃ dissolves in water,the resulting solution becomes colder.Which of the following expressions is most correct?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The dissolution of NH₄NO₃ in water is an endothermic process, meaning it requires energy in the form of heat to occur. As a result, the temperature of the resulting solution should decrease. Option B (11ea7fdf_ad93_7d3a_99dd_25a79eed9776_TB2243_00) shows a decrease in temperature (indicated by the underline) and is therefore the most correct choice. Options A, C, and D show either an increase in temperature or no change, which are not consistent with an endothermic reaction.
