What would likely happen if you were to touch the flask in which an exothermic reaction were occurring?

The flask might feel cool to the touch as the reactants absorb heat conducted through the flask from your body. (This assumes that the reaction is happening at temperatures below your body temperature.)

What will most likely happen if the amount of enzyme that catalyzes this reaction is increased?
The reaction will speed up.
Which Alkali metals would undergo the least exothermic reaction with chlorine?
Most likely lithium since it has a the highest ionization energy than the others.
Is burning gasoline an exothermic process or an endothermic process?
Solid to gas (sublimation) is endothermic (takes in heat).In other words:A phase change from the solid state to the gas state is endothermic.Sublimation is endothermic (takes in energy).Heat energy must be provided to make it work.When there is a change of state from a solid to a liquid, a solid to a gas, or a liquid to a gas, at a constant temperature, the process is endothermic NOT exothermic. It requires energy to break the intermolecular forces that keep the molecules together, and that reduces the temperature - heat is taken in.
When did tornadoes first happen in WA?
It is impossible to say; tornadoes have been occurring there since before anyone was around to record them. It is likely they have been occurring there since the land that would become Washington first formed.
How is feeling drowsy (sleepy) likely to affect a driver’s reaction time?
One why would you ask sorry not trying to be rude but the reaction time would be late and may not even happen
Are explosives likely to be endothermic or exothermic?
exothermic reaction
What will most likely happen if the amount of enzyme that catalyzes this reaction is increased?
The reaction will speed up.
Is solid exothermic or endothermic?
A solid is itself neither endothermic or exothermic. However the phase change from liquid to solid will likely be exothermic.
Which Alkali metals would undergo the least exothermic reaction with chlorine?
Most likely lithium since it has a the highest ionization energy than the others.

What happens when you mix phosphorus triiodide and water?
Phosphorus triiodide reacts violently with water, so the reaction is exothermic. If a large amount of phosphorus triiodide is mixed, an explosion will most likely occur. If it is a small amount, then it will be similar to the reaction of potassium with water.
During the chemical reaction starch is broken down into glucose What will most likely happen if the biochemist adds an enzyme to the reactants?
the reaction will speed up

Is a thermos endothermic or exothermic?
Endothermic: absorbs energy from surroundings in the form of heat. ie. outside temperature loses heat. Exothermic: releases energy into surroundings in the form of heat ie. outside temperature gains heat. Seeing as a thermos is supposed to MAINTAIN the temperature of its contents, it is neither.
