False. Not necessarily. Do not confuse kinetics with thermodynamics. Although an enzyme as a catalyst decreases the activation energy of the reaction, this says nothing about whether the reaction is ultimately endothermic or exothermic.
Yes. It can be coupled with an exergonic reaction and therefore can occur.
**See Campbell and Reece AP Biology Textbook chapter 8.3
Some enzymes can lower the activation energy of the reaction to that extent.
The type of reaction that absorbs energy is endothermic. This process takes the energy from its surroundings, absorbs it, and creates heat.
Endothermic reactions take in heat from the surroundings (and make it cooler), exothermic reactions give out heat to the surroundings making it hotter. Get too close to a sparkler and you'll find it is very hot! This is because it is an exothermic reaction.
Solid to gas (sublimation) is endothermic (takes in heat).In other words:A phase change from the solid state to the gas state is endothermic.Sublimation is endothermic (takes in energy).Heat energy must be provided to make it work.When there is a change of state from a solid to a liquid, a solid to a gas, or a liquid to a gas, at a constant temperature, the process is endothermic NOT exothermic. It requires energy to break the intermolecular forces that keep the molecules together, and that reduces the temperature - heat is taken in.
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.
Yes, vaporization is an endothermic reaction while freezing is an exothermic reaction. Think of a pot of water set of the stove. What are you doing to it? You're putting in heat in order to break the hydrogen bonds. The heat/energy is being expendedor absorbed to make the water boil. In the case of freezing (say water), the hydrogen bonds are realigning while producing heat.
The reaction is highly exothermic as heat energy is released from the system to the surroundings whereas in endothermic the heat is absorbed from the surroundings into the system and you can also observe or see the smoke coming out of the apparatus in which the reaction is occurring or taking place.Heat energy is being released in the form of smoke.Therefore the reaction is exothermic.
The type of reaction that absorbs energy is endothermic. This process takes the energy from its surroundings, absorbs it, and creates heat.
Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions that use heat as part of the reactant. Heat is absorbed into the reaction in order for it to continue. Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that release heat as a product of the reaction.
Endothermic reactions take in heat from the surroundings (and make it cooler), exothermic reactions give out heat to the surroundings making it hotter. Get too close to a sparkler and you'll find it is very hot! This is because it is an exothermic reaction.
its an endothermic reaction, because the it broke the bonds of the calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in order to make calcium oxide (CaO) and Carbon dioxide (CO2).
You would have to have an Eacthomatdid reaction of chemcal chance to change a cold pack to a hot pack.
endothermic reaction. ice - cream melts because it absorbs heat from the surrounding thus increasing its temperature. exothermic reaction is when a substance reacts with something, thus releasing heat.

Endothermic; that reaction in which energy is absorbed is called endothermic reaction, mostly the breaking of a molecule is an endothermic reaction, as for breaking process energy is required, when a molecule gets the sufficient energy it breaks. EXOTHERMIC Reaction is that in which energy is released, as combining of any two element or atoms to make a molecule, take the example of formation of CO2.
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.
In an exothermic reaction the reactants release energy to the environment when they react - like coal burning. In an endothermic reaction the reactants need to absorb energy from their environment when they react, so the reaction feels cold in your hand, or else you have to heat it continually to make it react. The products would then be at a higher energy level than the reactant were. Photosynthesis is an interesting example of an endothermic reaction, because in this example the energy supplied to make the reaction go is not heat but light. The product (sugar) is an 'energy store' which the plant (or whatever eats the plant) can use later on to release the energy in respiration.
Reactions are described by this equation: GD = HD - TDS where D = delta for change in values. GD < 0 spontaneous HD < 0 exothermic ; HD > 0 endothermic The first equation is Gibbs free energy. When G is negative, the reaction is spontaneous. In contrast, a positive number G is non spontaneous. The interesting thing is that spontaneous reactions can be EITHER exothermic and endothermic. Lets look at this: lets assume HD has a value of 100. This means TDS would have to be bigger than 100 in order to make GD a negative number. An endothermic reaction which has a positive H can still be exothermic. Here's another way to pose your question: Is an exothermic reaction spontaneous? Always. Is an endothermic reaction spontaneous? This can be either.
