Is a match is lit and Burns endothermic or exothermic reaction?
yes burning a match is an examle of very fast reaction
Is lightning a match of an exothermic or endothermic reaction?
It is exothermic, since it evolves heat. ^^ according to my Chemistry teacher, it's exothermic and endothermic.
Is striking a match exothermic or endothermic?
Exothermic because the fire or spark created by striking the match is releasing energy
Is someone striking a match endothermic or exothermic?
Exothermic because the fire or spark created by striking the match is releasing energy
Difference between endothermic and exothermic?
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.
What is striking a match an example of?
Striking a match is an example of an endothermic reaction. It is also an example of simple combustion and a chemical reaction.
Is burning a match a physical change?
No, burning anything is a chemical change.
Is mostly likely a chemical change salt dissolving in water or a match burning?
A match burning is a chemical change. Salt dissolving in water is a physical change.
When a match is struck and a flame is ignited where does the energy from the fire come from and where does it go?
Burning is an exothermic chemical reaction; heat is released in the atmosphere.
What role does rubbing the match head on a rough surface have in reaction involved in the burning of a match?
Rubbing the match head mixes together the two chemicals that make up the surface of the match head. Then they react with the air and cause an exothermic reaction.
An example of a chemical change is?
Lighting A Match
What kind of reaction energy that requires energy in the form of heat?
Like baking a cake once you heat it, it becomes a new substance. With a chemical change you can never go back to what you had before. Also like a car rusting, a match being lite, and burning wood ( the new substance for wood is ash)
