release of an odour from the solution
The energy needed to statr a chemical reaction is the 'Activation Energy' , which is given the symbol (Ea).
What term refers to the amount of energy needed to begin a chemical reaction
Two types of energy changes that can occur in a chemical reaction are (1) endothermic and (2) exothermic. Endothermic is where energy is added to the system and exothermic is where energy is given off by the system.
Endothermic Reaction. Exothermic is a chemical reaction in which energy must be provided.
Adding a catalyst will make the reaction happen faster because the catalyst makes the Activation Energy (the energy required for the reaction to take place) to lower. Meaning more molecules can acquire this lower number of energy. A chemical reaction that involves a catalyst is a special type. A catalyst, in a given chemical reaction, is something that is both an input *and* an output of the reaction equation. What that means, practically, is that a small amount of catalyst is enough to process any amount of the other inputs. (More catalyst means that a given amount will be processed faster.)

Chemical reaction.
A chemical reaction
Yes.
Exothermic Reaction
In a glow stick a chemical reaction occur; the energy is released.

Two types of energy changes that can occur in a chemical reaction are (1) endothermic and (2) exothermic. Endothermic is where energy is added to the system and exothermic is where energy is given off by the system.
Combustion, burning, releases more heat that is taken in to start the reaction.
A catalyst can speed up the rate of a given chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. However, the catalyst does not change the total free energy from reactants to products.
