Want this question answered?
i am not sure but i think it is endothermic
It is true to say that it could be either, but most would agree that cooking food is endothermic - food takes in the heat during cooking, and doesn't release it while cooking. The heat is circulated through the food when it is cooking, making it endothermic. Some foods release the heat, but this is only after the food has been cut.Cooking an egg is an endothermic process. The egg absorbs the heat from the water and does not release it. Perhaps if you are making hard boiled eggs you could say that it is both - endothermic while cooking and exothermic while cooking. Though the cooking process is absolutely endothermic.
Cooking an egg is an endothermic process because the heat from the stove is inputted to the egg so it can cook. Also, baking bread is an endothermic process because it it cooking by the input of the heat. They are like the same concepts.
endothermic reaction
Energy must be continuously added for the chemical reactions to take place.

An egg would be endothermic. Energy to cook the egg would be absorbed by the pan.
Endothermic basically means "warm-blooded", so it includes all mammals and birds. Humans, dogs, cats, rats, hippos, rhinos, elephants, and giraffes are all examples of endothermic creatures.
The egg requires heat to be cooked. This means that in order to start the frying "reaction", a certain number of joules of heat have to be added to the frying pan, which transfers the heat to the egg. The egg solidifies as a result of the frying reaction.If frying the egg was exothermic, the egg would produceheat when fried (which would be very strange!).
An endothermic reaction is one which requires the continuous input of energy. Although some reactions require energy to start them off, e.g. combustion of wood, they will then continue to react and will emit energy, mainly in the form of heat, in an exothermic reaction. Baking a cake requires a continuous source of energy (i.e. the heat from an oven). If you turn the oven off, the cake will not continue cooking by itself. It is therefore endothermic.
Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions that use heat as part of the reactant. Heat is absorbed into the reaction in order for it to continue. Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that release heat as a product of the reaction.
A few examples of Endothermic reactions are cooking and egg, melting ice cream, and boiling water.
