Energy must be continuously added for the chemical reactions to take place.
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.
Energy must be continuously added for the chemical reactions to take place.
Yes, cooking can involve endothermic reactions, particularly in processes like baking or boiling. For example, when baking bread, heat is absorbed to cause the dough to rise, and when boiling pasta, heat is absorbed to cook the noodles. In these cases, energy is required to break chemical bonds and facilitate the transformation of ingredients, which characterizes an endothermic process.
An egg would be endothermic. Energy to cook the egg would be absorbed by the pan.
Cooking is considered an endothermic process because it requires the absorption of heat energy from the surroundings to transform raw ingredients into cooked food. During cooking, heat is absorbed to break chemical bonds in food molecules, leading to changes in texture, flavor, and nutritional properties. This energy input is essential for processes like boiling, baking, and frying, where the temperature of the food increases as it cooks.
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!).
endothermic
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.
The melting of ice is an example of an endothermic process. Heat energy is absorbed from the surroundings to break the hydrogen bonds holding the ice together, resulting in the ice melting into water.
Freezing is exothermic, as the substance that is freezing loses energy to its surroundings.
