Burning wood is exothermic and photosynthesis is endothermic.
An exothermic reaction is when something is giving off heat. Two examples of that are Mixing sodium and chlorine together. And also when using a thermite reaction of Iron and Oxide.
Heat is released during an exothermic reaction.
exothermic reaction
exothermic reactions1) Combustion: A combustion reaction is when oxygen combines with another compound to form water and carbon dioxide. These reactions are exothermic, meaning they produce heat. An example of this kind of reaction is the burning of napthalene:C10H8 + 12 O2---> 10 CO2 + 4 H2O
This is a vigorous exothermic reaction
It is an exothermic process, but it not a chemical reaction
It's a exothermic reaction because heat and light is being released.
Dissolving magnesium chloride & calcium chloride in water is exothermic reaction
Anything burning, oxidising, exploding etc.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction with release of heat. As an example the burning reaction of methane: CH4 + 2 O2 ------→ CO2 + 2 H2O
... is an exothermic reaction (opposite of 'endothermic')
It is called an exothermic reaction. Example: a burning candle
Heat is released during an exothermic reaction.
In exothermic reactions heat is liberated. So reaction can be reactants---->products+heat
Burning wood in a fire is exothermic. It gives off heat to the surroundings. In fact any reaction that gives off heat to the surroundings is exothermic.
