I am not entirely sure what you mean with "absorb"; a resistor - anything that has a resistance, in other words, most materials - will absorb part of the energy of any electrical current that passes through it.

What is a reaction that absorbs energy?
The type of reaction that absorbs energy is endothermic. This process takes the energy from its surroundings, absorbs it, and creates heat.
What is a non-spontaneous reaction that absorbs free energy from its surroundings?
Endothermic
What term refers to a chemical reaction that absorbs heat energy?
Absorbing energy from the surroundings is endothermic. (The opposite - releasing energy to the surroundings - is exothermic).
What is the change in the internal energy of a system that absorbs 2.500J of heat and that does 7.655J of work on the surroundings is?
5.155
What statement about the energy of a phase change is true?
Melting is an endothermic change, because ice absorbs energy from its surroundings as it melts.
The system adsorbs energy from its surroundings?
An Endothermic change is the system that absorbs energy from its surroundings.
What is a non-spontaneous reaction that absorbs free energy from its surroundings?
Endothermic
What is a reaction that absorbs energy?
The type of reaction that absorbs energy is endothermic. This process takes the energy from its surroundings, absorbs it, and creates heat.
Where does energy come from an endothermic reaction?
From the surroundings. From Wikipedia: "...a process or reaction in which the system absorbs energy from its surroundings in the form of (usually, but not always) heat."
What term refers to a chemical reaction that absorbs heat energy?
Absorbing energy from the surroundings is endothermic. (The opposite - releasing energy to the surroundings - is exothermic).
When do you know dynamic equilibrium as occurred in a solution?
When it no longer absorbs or emits energy from the surroundings.
What is the change in the internal energy of a system that absorbs 2.500J of heat and that does 7.655J of work on the surroundings is?
5.155
What statement about the energy of a phase change is true?
Melting is an endothermic change, because ice absorbs energy from its surroundings as it melts.
Why do endothermic reactions absorb heat?
a process or reaction in which the system absorbs energy from the surroundings in the form of heat.
When the kerosene gets burnt energy is released from it where does that energy come from?
You are talking about a chemical reaction here. Which is: Kerosene + Oxygen gas ----> Carbon Dioxide + Water This is an example of an exothermic reaction. Energy is stored in chemical bonds. When heat is provided to a Kerosene. It absorbs energy and its bonds break. Since Kerosene becomes cool, its absorbs energy from the surroundings. As a consequence, the surroundings heats up.
How does an endothermic process differ from an exothermic process?
An endothermic phase change is when the substance absorbs energy from its surroundings (melting, vaporization).In an exothermic phase change the substance releases energy to its surroundings (freezing, condensation)..
An endothermic reaction causes the surroundings to?
An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs heat energy from the surrounding environment. Therefore, an ongoing endothermic reaction will cause its surroundings to become colder. In contrast, an exothermic reaction radiates heat energy into its surroundings, which will cause the ambient environment to get warmer.
