the name your looking for is an "exothermic" reaction, one in which heat energy is released to the surrounding atmosphere
the other is an endothermic, which absorbs the energy around it making it a "cold" reaction

What is the heat element in plaster?
There is no specific element in plaster that produces. The chemical reaction that results when plaster is mixed with water is what produces the heat.
What is energy of radiant objects such as fire?
Radiant energy is exothermic energy. Fire is a chemical reaction that produces heat. This heat is released as a result of the exothermic chemical reaction.
Which type of chemical reaction often produces energy in the form of light heat or electricity?

Mix calcium oxide with water and then what happens?
Well, The chemical reaction when calcium is placed with water is a fizzing. It fizzes and also "produces" heat. Not sure what the chemical formula would be called however. Calcium Hydroxide possibly
What is a chemical reaction absorbs heat called?
An endothermic reaction.
What is the study of heat changes in a chemical reaction?
The study of heat is called thermodynamics.
