A type of reaction or process accompanied by the release of heat.
Exothermic refers to a chemical reaction or process that releases energy in the form of heat. This means that during an exothermic reaction, energy is being transferred from the system to the surroundings, resulting in a temperature increase.
No, not all spontaneous processes are exothermic. Spontaneous processes can be exothermic (release heat), endothermic (absorb heat), or not involve a change in heat at all. The spontaneity of a process is determined by a combination of factors such as entropy, enthalpy, and temperature.
Exos= outside , thermos=temperature or heat So within the definition itself it can be known that in exothermic reactions heat is released. In chemical reactions the energy supplied is use in breaking of bonds, but energy is release by making bonds. In exothermic reactions, the energy supplied is sufficient for chemical reaction to occur (to break existing bonds) and the excess energy is given in the form of heat (from making new bonds).If the reaction is exothermic, it means that the total energy it took to break the bonds is less than the total energy released when forming new bonds -- so net energy is released in the form of heat. for example 2H2 +O2 ----> 2H20 which is exothermic reaction. Combustion reactions in general are exothermic reactions.
Lightning is a result of an exothermic reaction, where energy is released in the form of light and heat. The rapid movement of electrons through the atmosphere creates the visible flash known as lightning.
The dilution of sulfuric acid is exothermic because it releases heat.
A type of reaction or process accompanied by the release of heat.
A small amount of energy gets the reaction started, the formation of new compounds releases excess energy. That is the definition of exothermic.
a system consists of two kinds:the endothermic and exothermic reaction.
birds are winged, bipedal , exothermic, vertebrate animals that fly and lay eggs.

no its not but if you need to measure the volume of it you drop it in water and measure the amount of water displaced
Exothermic phenomenon
Exothermic. Glucose is one of the major source of energy of the body and can only act as an energy source because its breakdown into CO2 is an exothermic reaction.
