Is burning gasoline an exothermic process or an endothermic process?

Solid to gas (sublimation) is endothermic (takes in heat).
In other words:
A phase change from the solid state to the gas state is endothermic.
Sublimation is endothermic (takes in energy).
Heat energy must be provided to make it work.
When there is a change of state from a solid to a liquid, a solid to a gas, or a liquid to a gas, at a constant temperature, the process is endothermic NOT exothermic. It requires energy to break the intermolecular forces that keep the molecules together, and that reduces the temperature - heat is taken in.

Is wax in a candle burning an exothermic process or endothermic?
Exothermic process
Is freeezing endothermic or exothermic?
Freezing is exothermic, as the substance that is freezing loses energy to its surroundings.
Is the process feeling cold exothermic or endothermic?
Exothermic/endothermic is a process not a feeling.
What is process that involves absorption of heat?
endothermic reaction a positive enthalpy.
Why burning a candle is an exothermic reaction not endothermic?
The reaction releases heat and light to its surroundings, so it is exothermic.
Is burning alcohol an exothermic or endothermic process?
Exothermic
Is wax in a candle burning an exothermic process or endothermic?
Exothermic process
Is burning leaves a endothermic or exothermic process?
Exothermic
Classify the burning of natural gasses in exothermic or endothermic changes?
The burning of natural gas is an exothermic process.
Is freeezing endothermic or exothermic?
Freezing is exothermic, as the substance that is freezing loses energy to its surroundings.
Is the process feeling cold exothermic or endothermic?
Exothermic/endothermic is a process not a feeling.
Is melting an exothermic or an endothermic process?
It is an endothermic process.
Is melting process a endothermic and exothermic?
endothermic
Is melting of candle an exothermic or endothermic reaction?
It is exothermic. When you put your hand close to the burning candle, does the air feel cooler or warmer? If it feels cooler, then it is drawing in heat and is endothermic (endo = in). If it feels warmer, then it is giving off heat and is exothermic (exo = out). (If the system is gaining energy (heat) than it is endothermic, releasing energy is exothermic.)
What is evaporation an exothermic or endothermic process?
Evaporation is an endothermic process.
What is process that involves absorption of heat?
endothermic reaction a positive enthalpy.
Is melting ice endothermic or exothermic change?
Ice cream melting (or pretty much anything melting) is an endothermic process in that it requires the absorption of heat energy in order to occur. An example of an exothermic process is the burning of paper which gives off heat energy.
