The energy release is exothermic although the exothermic reaction is not the goal. The goal is rapid expansion of gases in order to move the pistons away from the cylinder head. Heat is a by product....and an unwanted one at that.
Sounds like a homework question. We know that in an exothermic reaction, heat is taken out of the system and given to the surroundings. Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is pulled from the surroundings into the system. I am assuming you are thinking of the cookies as the system. So in this case, energy--in the form of heat--is being taken out of the oven and being put into the cookies. The cookies, using the energy increase in temperature, which bakes the cookies, creating the tasty little morsels of joy that cookies are.
Chemical reactions can be classified based on the type of reaction (e.g., synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement) or the energy changes involved (e.g., exothermic, endothermic). Classification helps in understanding the underlying principles and predicting the products of reactions.
The most common reaction producing heat is burning, in which fuel is combined with oxygen from the atmosphere to produce heat which is a form of thermal energy. The problem of using the heat in the most efficient way possible in engines leads to the science of Thermodynamics, a branch of physics.
Self-heating cans warm up their contents using an exothermic reaction. This reaction typically involves mixing water with quicklime (calcium oxide), which generates heat as it reacts to form calcium hydroxide.
The process of using the products of an exergonic reaction to drive an endergonic reaction is known as energy coupling. This enables coupling the release of energy from one reaction to power a reaction that requires energy input. ATP is often involved in facilitating this energy transfer.
(An endothermic process is one that absorbs heat.)"An endothermic reaction just took place between the water and the chemical.""Boiling water is an endothermic process that adds energy to the water molecules."
Photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight as an energy source. It is a complex process that occurs in plants, algae, and some bacteria.
Photosynthesis: The reaction where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen by plants using sunlight. Endothermic reactions: Reactions that involve the absorption of heat energy from the surroundings, such as the decomposition of calcium carbonate to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
Endo draws heat from around it. Exo gives off heat. Example: Ice melting is a endothermic reaction. A match lighting is an exothermic reaction.An exothermic reaction releases heat to it's surroundings. The change in energy is negative. An example is combustion of natural gas.An endothermic reaction absorbs heat, so the temperature of the surroundings drops. The energy is positive. An example is melting ice cubes.
Plants are endothermic because they use photosynthesis as their means of obtaining energy and endothermic means energy obtaining. A candle flame would be considered exothermic because it releases heat.
One way to determine if a reaction is endothermic or exothermic without using enthalpy values is by observing the temperature change during the reaction. If the temperature increases, the reaction is likely exothermic, releasing heat. If the temperature decreases, the reaction is likely endothermic, absorbing heat.

Yes. It is possinle to split water into hydrogen and oxygen using electrolysis.
By supplying energy to it.Explanation:Since an endothermic reaction, by definition, NEEDS energy to go on, it will cool down (= taking heat energy from the reactants). It will stop itself as any reaction will slow down at lower(ing) temperatures.So SUPPLY of heat is at least necessary to KEEP temperature at its minimum level of 'ongoing' reaction.
