Does an exergonic reaction become hot?
An exergonic Reaction will give off heat. The higher energy level (Reactants) will produce a lower energy level (products) and release energy (chemical or kinetic). An exergonic Reaction will give off heat. The higher energy level (Reactants) will produce a lower energy level (products) and release energy (chemical or kinetic).
What is the difference between exergonic and endergonic reaction?
Endergonic takes energy in to make a reaction. Exergonic releases energy when the reaction happens. An example of endergonic would be when plants use photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water molecules would be the reactants and when the plant absorbs energy like the sun, the turn it into sugar molecules that are high in energy. An example of an exergonic reaction would be wood burning. Heat and light is released.
A process or reaction which releases heat to the surroundings is said to be?
Reactions that require energy in the form of heat are called endothermic.
What can be absorbed or released as the result if a chemical reaction?
Heat
What type of reaction is characterized by a release of energy?
The general term for a chemical reaction that releases heat is an exothermic reaction. The energy released is called enthalpy.A reaction that releases energy is called an exothermic reaction.
Is burning wood an example of an exergonic or endergonic reaction?
Yes, combustion is an example of an exergonic reaction. During combustion, energy is released- making it an exergonic reaction.
What is exogonic reaction?
there is no exogonic reaction: reactions are either endergonic or exergonic. An exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat, light, etc. .. An endergonic reaction is the opposite being a reaction requiring the input of energy.
What can an exothermic reaction do?
Exergonic reactions are chemical reactions in which energy is released as heat.
What happens to the heat when an exergonic reaction occurs in living cells?
It's being released.

What is a reaction called in which heat energy is absorbed?
when energy is absorbed it is called an endergonic reaction and when energy is released it is called an exergonic reaction
What is the difference between exothermic and exergonic?
exergonic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases free energy. its final state is less than its initial state. while the endergonic reaction is a chemical reaction that absorbs free energy from its surroundings. in this process, the initial state is less than its final state. it does not occur spontaneously.
A chemical reaction that invoves heat given off is called what?
exothermic (or exergonic if discussing energy being released in any form, including heat)
What is the difference between exergonic and endergonic reaction?
Endergonic takes energy in to make a reaction. Exergonic releases energy when the reaction happens. An example of endergonic would be when plants use photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide and water molecules would be the reactants and when the plant absorbs energy like the sun, the turn it into sugar molecules that are high in energy. An example of an exergonic reaction would be wood burning. Heat and light is released.
Is fire exothermic?
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.
What is an exergonic reaction?
Exergonic reactions indicate a negative change in Gibbs free energy, which in English means that the reactions are spontaneous and do not require addition of energy. The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in blood and lungs is an example. It is the concentration gradient that runs these exchanges passively, without additional energy from the cells.
Is a fireflies light endergonic or exergonic?
It does not produce or consume heat. It is "cold light"- bioluminescence
