Is heat energy a kinetic energy or potenail energy and why?

Heat energy is a form of kinetic energy because heat is related to the motion of particles. This means heat is a form of kinetic energy. Adding heat energy to an object makes it hotter and causes its particles to move faster. That is why heat energy is a form of kinetic energy.AnswerHeat is the name we give to energy in transit from a warmer body to a cooler body. So it's NOT a form of 'kinetic energy'; what the original answer defines is 'internal energy', not heat!


Four forms of energy that might be absorbed or released during a chemical reaction?

endothermal energy (absorbs heat)exothermic energy (releases heat)light energy e.g. burning magnesium produces a bright whitechemical energyNOTE: Kinetic energy is NOT a form of energy from chemical reactions. It is a common mistake to think so e.g. when sodium (Na) is placed on a piece of filter paper on a container of water, the reason it moves is from the bubbles of gas (hydrogen, H) propelling it. It is not moving by itself.


Which chemical reaction is responsible for producing heat?

All the exothermic reactions produces heat energy whereas all endothermic reactions absorb heat from the surrounding. For example burning of a coal is a exothermic process and melting of a ice is a endothermic process.


What kind of bond does a exothermic reaction have?

Whether a reaction is exothermic or endothermic is not dependent upon the type of bond. Exothermic reactions can involve ionic or covalent bonds. When an ionic substance dissolves, it is often an exothermic reaction, as are many reactions involving covalent bonds, such as combustion.


Which type of energy is the waste energy?

Waste energy is quite often in the form of heat energy.

Is it true when a reaction is at a equilibruim increasing the temperature favors the reaction that releases energy as heat?

No that is false. Increasing temperature favors the reaction that absorbs energy, not that releases energy as heat.

What is exoyhermic?

'exoyhermic' is a typo of 'exothermic' ;D Exothermic describes a process or reaction that releases energy in the form of heat. In other words, an exothermic reaction releases heat, or gets hotter. An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs heat, or gets cooler.


What kind of energy does exothermic releases?

Releases energy in the form of heat.


A process or reaction which releases heat to the surroundings is said to be?

Reactions that require energy in the form of heat are called endothermic.


What is the reaction in which energy is released?

A reaction that releases energy is usually termed exothermic reaction. Energy is usually released as heat.


Energy is lost from a reaction in a form of what?

energy of a reaction will be lost in the form of heat.
