A chemical reaction that releases energy is called?
Exothermic reactions
What is the difference of endothermic reaction from exothermic reaction?
An endothermic reaction requires heat to form products. An exothermic reaction produces heat when it forms products.
Are titrations endothermic or exothermic?
In thermometric titration the reaction enthalpy is used to follow the chemical reaction. I guess it dépends on the titration reaction it can be exothermic or endothermic. ΔHr (molar heat of reaction) negative (indicating an exothermic reaction) or positive (indicating an endothermic reaction
What is the name given to reactions which take in heat?
An endothermal (or endothermic) process is the name of the process in which heat is taken in. In an exothermal (or exothermic) process, heat is released.
Is the chemical reaction for the combustion of magnesium endothermic or exothermic?
Exothermic (gives off heat - and light!).
What is the difference between a exothermic chemical reaction and a endothermic chemical reaction?
energy released by the reaction or energy absorbed.
What is the diffrencence between exothermic reaction and chemical reaction?
Exothermic reaction is just one of the two possible chemical reactions: either exothermic or endothermic. (No difference but heat release)
What is the chemical formula of a exothermic reaction?
Impossible to answer. Exothermic reaction is just one of the two possible chemical reactions: either exothermic or endothermic. (No difference but heat release)
A chemical reaction that releases energy is called?
Exothermic reactions
A reaction that gives out energy?
... is an exothermic reaction (opposite of 'endothermic')
What is the opposite of exothermic?
The opposite of exothermic is endothermic. Exothermic reactions are those which give off energy in the form of heat. Endothermic reactions require energy.
What is a chemical reaction that absorbs heat?
An endothermic reaction absorbs heat, an exothermic reaction releases heat.
What is the difference between endothermic and exothermic?
An endothermic reaction absorbs heat. It cannot proceed without the addition of heat. An exothermic reaction releases heat. Since heat causes chemical reactions to go faster, an exothermic reaction can "feed on itself" and get out of control, releasing damaging amounts of heat and, if proceeding in a closed container, causing an explosion.
Is the chemical reaction in flameless ration heaters classified as an endothermic or an exothermic reaction?
Exothermic. Its a heater.
What is the different between endothermic and endothermic?
The difference between endothermic and exothermic energy is that exothermic energy is the reaction that releases energy and endothermic is the reaction in ehich energy is absorbed.
Is the reaction inside a chemical heat pack endothermic?
The reaction is exothermic.
What is the difference of endothermic reaction from exothermic reaction?
An endothermic reaction requires heat to form products. An exothermic reaction produces heat when it forms products.
