What are some examples of endothermic equations and exothermic equations?

Exothermic reactions give out heat.
some examples of exothermic reactions are :
1)burning fuel in a fire
2)the addition of acid to water
3)the thermite reaction(this one is quite a sight)
4)the haber process of producing ammonia
Endothermic reactions take in heat from their environment.
some examples of endothermic reactions are:
1)an ice cube melting
2)depressurising a can(responsible in part why deodorant feels cold)
3)dissolving ammonium nitrate in water
4)decomposition of Mercury (II) oxide(this requires a lot of heat)

Is the reaction of magnesium sulphate and water exothermic or endothermic?
The stuff is actually used in some hotpacks. It's exothermic.
Is stone exothermic or endothermic?
It depends on the situation. Suppose the stone is placed in a cup of hot water. It is now endothermic because it absorbs some of the heat. But if it is placed in a cup of frigid water, it is exothermic because it will release some of its heat as it drops in temperature. --------------------------------------------------------------- Endothermic or exothermic are terms used for processes, phenomenons, reactions not for materials.
Is an ionic compound exothermic?
A compound is never exothermic. Its reaction with some other substance is endothermic or exothermic like when calcium oxide reacts with water large amount of heat is evolved.
Is the melting of candle wax and exothermic or endothermic change?
The answer is endothermic. The wax is absorbing heat energy, not producing it, and changing from a solid state to a liquid state. If the reactants require more energy than than they are putting out during the reaction, it is said to be endothermic (absorbing of heat). If the reactants give off heat of their own (self sustaining), then it is an exothermic reaction. There are components in some types of wax that will burn, in which case that is an example of an exothermic reaction, but most wax will stop once the heat source is removed.
Is condensation exothermic of endothermic?
Condensation is generally exothermic in that the material doing the condensing will be giving up thermal energy to do so. And giving up heat energy is the exit of thermal energy, hence the name exothermic. The atoms or molecules of this consate give up some of their kinetic energy, their energy of atomic or molecular motion, that thermal energy, to condense.
What are some physical endothermic phenomenons?
Some examples of exothermic reactions are melting ice cubes, water evaporation, and baking bread. An endothermic reaction occurs when heat is absorbed from the surrounding.
Is curium endothermic or exothermic?
The terms exothermic and endothermic are applicable to chemical or physical reactions, not to materials. But because curium is an radioactive element, of course some thermal radiation is emitted.
Is the reaction of magnesium sulphate and water exothermic or endothermic?

Is stone exothermic or endothermic?

What are some examples of endothermic birds?
All of them are endothermic.
Examples of endothermic and exothermic reactions?
Exothermic reactions give out energy overall. Here are some exothermic reactions:- Combustion of fuels such as hydrogen & methane- Neutralisation of an acid by an alkali- Reaction between sulphur & ironEndothermic reactions take in energy overall. Here are some endothermic reactions:- Reactions involved in cooking- The thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate- Photosynthesis in which plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide & water to make their own food
Do chemical reaction absorb energy spontaneously or do they release them?
Some chemical reactions are exothermic, some are endothermic.
What are some examples of endothermic reactions that are endothermic as well?
All ENDOthermic reactions are of course ENDOthermic by themselves, aren't they?
Is an ionic compound exothermic?
A compound is never exothermic. Its reaction with some other substance is endothermic or exothermic like when calcium oxide reacts with water large amount of heat is evolved.
What Are some similities between photosynthesis and endothermic reaction?
It is a exothermic reaction. So there is nothing similar.
Will the temperature in a reaction always go up?
Exo- means out Endo- means in. In an Exothermic reaction thermal energy is released (goes out) and in an Endothermic reaction Thermal energy is taken up, transferring into chemical energy (goes in). So, to answer your question, no, the temperature does not go up in both an exothermic and an endothermic reaction.
Is it true that Every chemical reaction gives off energy?
yes it does <><><> No- some reactions ABSORB energy. In terms of heat energy, some are exothermic, and some are endothermic.
