Best Answer

The amount of heat produced in a reaction is not fixed. It depends upon the total amount of energy change that has taken place in the reaction altogether.

Not only this, all reactions do not produce heat. In some cases we have to supply energy from external sources to get the reaction started.

How much what? How much of the products? This depends entirely on how much of the reactants there are and the chemical reaction.

Do a chemical reaction produce heat and light?

Chemical reactions can produce heat and energy but not all chemical reactions produce them. Exothermic reactions produce heat and energy (possibly in the form of photons/light), while endothermic reaction absorb them.

Is an exothermic reaction will produce heat and will be reabsorbed to increase the rate of reaction?

Have you heard of Haber-Bosch process of production of ammonia. This is an example of the question you asked. If we apply the required heat in the beginning of the reaction we do not need to apply it again as its exothermic reversible reaction and will use the heat to continue the reaction. But the rate of reaction is not increased.


What kind of animal does not produce much internal heat?

Cold-blooded animals do not produce much body heat. Most do not produce any at all.


How is the chemical reaction that occured when the Hindenburg erupted into a fire ball described?

The gas bag of the Hindenburg dirigible was filled with hydrogen gas. The reaction was, at least initially, combination of hydrogen with oxygen from the air to produce water and much heat. The heat eventually triggered other reactions, such as oxidation of the passengers. Reaction of other materials with oxygen to produce gaseous products is generally called "combustion".
