Exothermic means the release of energy so such reactions are responsible to increase the temperature of surroundings.

Neutralization is an exothermic chemical reaction and thus heat is given out.

What two types of energy change can occur in a chemical reation?

Two types of energy change that can occur in a chemical reaction are endothermic or exothermic. An exothermic reaction causes an increase in temperature and an endothermic reaction causes a decrease in temperature.

How might a thermometer help you decide if there was any chemical change on mixing iron and charcoal?

For a chemical change to occur, there must be a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction would be either endothermic (uses energy, mostly heat), or exothermic (produces energy, again mostly heat). Any change in temperature of the reactants, as measured by a thermometer, will tell you not only ifa chemical reaction occurred, but also which kind of chemical reaction. No temperature change usually indicates that no reaction has occurred, a decrease in temperature would indicate an endothermic reaction, while an increase in temperature would indicate an exothermic reaction.


What effects does temperature have on chemical changes?

Generally the speed of reaction increase when the temperature is increased.
