It depends on a few things. If you mean thermodynamically stable, then no. The product of an endothermic reaction is higher in potential energy than the reactant(s) and will eventually release that energy and revert back (if it doesn't go on to some other product).

If you mean kinetically stable, then maybe. It really depends on the relative energy of any intermediates formed in the conversion of reactant(s) to product(s). This relative energy is also known as activation energy. If the activation energy is high, then the product would be relatively stable. If the activation energy is low, then the product would not be stable.

In an endothermic reaction are the products more or less stable than the reactants and explain your answer?

The products of an endothermic reaction are less chemically stable. They required an input of energy to create so naturally they are at a higher energy state.


What is the difference of endothermic reaction from exothermic reaction?

An endothermic reaction requires heat to form products. An exothermic reaction produces heat when it forms products.


When the products of a reaction are cooler than the reactions?

The reaction is endothermic


Do endothermic reaction have reactants with more energy than its products?

Kinetic energy has more energy than products.


What is the sign of the enthalpy change for an endothermic reaction?

Endothermic reaction: In an endothermic reaction, the products are higher in energy than the reactants. Therefore, the change in enthalpy is positive, and heat is absorbed from the surroundings by the reaction therefore enthalpy change show positive sign in a endothermic reaction..


What is the name of a reaction that occurs when products become colder?

Endothermic.


Which is the best term to describe a chemical reaction in which the reactants have more potential energy than the products?

What is the sign for Energy change of an endothermic reaction?

The products of the reaction will have less energy than the reactants


which of the following describes an endothermic reaction?

Hf, products > hf, reactants


How is an endothermic reaction indicated in an equation?

heat is included as one of the products


What is a chemical reaction that absorbs heat?

An endothermic reaction absorbs heat, an exothermic reaction releases heat.


How can endothermic and exothermic reactions work alike?

Endothermic and exothermic reactions are similar in that both have reactants and products. They are different in that exothermic reactions release energy through reacting and endothermic reactions absorb it.
