An exothermic change is a change that releases heat. Combustion

is an exothermic chemical reaction.Adding water to sulfuric acid releases

heat, called exothermic heat of mixing.

Exothermic changes are the opposite of endothermic changes that

absorb heat when they take place.

Exothermic changes are types of changes that occur during a chemical reaction. These particular changes have occurred when chemical reactions have expelled heat or energy.

Not necessarily. Although many chemical processes are exothermic a number of physical processes, such a freezing and boiling, are also exothermic.
