Endothermic...... because it requires energy to take out an electron from the outer orbit of an atom.

Ionization is typically an endothermic process because energy is required to remove an electron from an atom or molecule, resulting in the formation of ions. This energy requirement is necessary to overcome the attractive forces between the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electron.

Is ionization energy exothermic?
Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from an atom. It is an endothermic process because energy is needed to overcome the electrostatic force holding the electron to the nucleus.
Are Anions are associated with exothermic or endothermic process?
Anions are not associated with either exothermic or endothermic processes on their own. The classification of a process as exothermic or endothermic depends on the overall energy change of the reaction in which the anion is involved.
What is an endothermic compound and what is an exothermic compound?
Compounds are not generally considered endothermic or exothermic. These terms refer to processes. So, the process of formation, or the process of decomposition, would be an endothermic process or an exothermic process.
What is the name given to reactions which take in heat?
Endothermic reactions absorb heat from their surroundings.
Is butter melted in a pan a endothermic or exothermic change?
This is an endothermic process.
Is freeezing endothermic or exothermic?
Freezing is exothermic, as the substance that is freezing loses energy to its surroundings.
Is ionization endothermic or exothermic?
It is exothermic. Take for example H2SO4 H2SO4 -> H+ + HSO4- This is very exothermic
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
What is evaporation an exothermic or endothermic process?
Evaporation is an endothermic process because it requires energy in the form of heat to break the intermolecular forces holding the liquid molecules together. This energy is absorbed from the surroundings, leading to a decrease in temperature.
What is process that involves absorption of heat?
endothermic reaction a positive enthalpy.
Is bond breaking an endothermic or exothermic process?
Breaking bonds produces energy making it an exothermic process.
Is wax in a candle burning an exothermic process or endothermic?
Exothermic process
Is burning alcohol an exothermic or endothermic process?
Exothermic
Evaporating alcohol endothermic or exothermic?
It is an endothermic process.
Is the dissolving of calcium chloride endothermic or exothermic?
Both beacuse in such coditions it can be endothermic or exothermic.
