•The study of energy change during a chemical reaction is known as energetics.
•The study of energy change during a chemical reaction is known as energetics.
What is Energetics?What is Energetics?
The total energy stored in a substance is called the ‘heat content’ or enthalpy, with symbol H.
△△ H = Enthalpy of products – Enthalpy of reactants
△△ H = Hp – Hr
Heat may be absorbed or evolved. Reactions are therefore divided into two types: endothermic and exothermic.
It is a reaction that absorbed absorbed heatheat from the surroundings and the enthalpy change of the reaction is positive.

In most situations, a hot pack may be stored at the patients bed side to keep them warm. It
is simple and safe enough to use, even by the patients
themselves.
The Principle of The Principle of the the Hot PacksHot Packs
Principle:Principle: If a saturated solution remains
undisturbed as it is cooled, it often passes the point at which it would normally crystallize, reaching a supersaturated state.
It is an equilibrium that the solution turns to crystals and at the same time The crystals turn back to solution.

In fact, there are two In fact, there are two types of hot packs --- non-types of hot packs --- non-reusable hot pack and reusable hot pack and reusable hot pack reusable hot pack

Non-reusable hot pack ---adding chemicals together and releasing heat
The reusable hot pack is more preferable as:
•it can be reused until the container breaks;
•The cost-efficiency ratio is much higher;
•Also, it is more environmental friendly.

v). To reuse the chemicals, we can simply heat the crystals until the system completely becomes liquid.
Then, allow them to cool and the pack is ready to be reused.

The crystal formed in the above reaction may tend to expand and break the test tube. To avoid this problem, we can reheat the test tube to melt the contents to liquid.
The hot solution can be quickly cooled in an ice bath if one is in a hurry.
