This is an incomplete question. You mean to say, "Is fire an exothermic reaction?". Even when the question is phrased this way, it still doesn't make sense. Fire is a product of a reaction, meaning energy (in form of heat) is produced. If fire is being produced, then the reaction that caused the release of heat is the exothermic reaction, not the fire.

∙ 9y agoFire is an exergonic reaction because it breaks down matter. After the matter is broken down, energy is released.

Can a exothermic reaction be used to fire an engine?
Yes. That is exactly what we use today. Most engines are powered by an exothermic reaction between gasoline or a similar fuel with oxygen.
