Yes because endothermic is absorbing heat and a cake absorbs heat in order to make it hot.

Is baking bread a endothermic and exothermic?

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.


Why is making brownies an endothermic reaction?

An endothermic reaction is one which requires the continuous input of energy. Although some reactions require energy to start them off, e.g. combustion of wood, they will then continue to react and will emit energy, mainly in the form of heat, in an exothermic reaction. Baking a cake requires a continuous source of energy (i.e. the heat from an oven). If you turn the oven off, the cake will not continue cooking by itself. It is therefore endothermic.


How does baking powder affect or relate to baking products?

What is chemical reaction in baking a cake?

Is baking powder a gas that makes a cake rise a chemical reaction?

Baking powder is not a gas, but it does make a cake rise by releasing carbon dioxide into the batter through chemical reaction.


Is baking a cake in an oven a chemical reaction?

Yes, because baking involve chemical changes.


Why is the process of baking a cake an endothermic reaction?

The top answer ("the temperature of the bread goes up and the temperature of its surrounding will go down") is a terrible answer because whether baking bread is endothermic or exothermic depends on whether the chemical reactions that take place in the bread release energy or bind energy. That has absolutely nothing to do with the bread getting hot in the oven. Even a brick gets hot inside an oven yet there are no chemical processes occurring.


Why do walnut skins turn black when cooked in carrot cake?

A change in matter in which energy is taken in is an endothermic change?

Its where heat is taken in in a reaction eg making a cake is an endothermic reaction as heat is taken in to start it ;)

What proteins in milk make a cake rise?

It's not the milk alone that makes a cake rise. If the recipe includes milk it probably also contains either baking powder and/or baking soda. This combination of a base (Baking soda or Baking Powder) and an acid (milk) causes a slight chemical reaction which causes the cake to rise.
