Exothermic reactions produce heat. Endothermic reactions take in heat from the surrounding area and get cold.

Where energy is given off?

Energy is given off during exothermic reactions, where the system releases heat to the surroundings. Examples include combustion reactions, neutralization reactions, and some types of nuclear reactions.


Which form of energy is released or absorbed in most chemical reactions?

If there is any type of energy given offduring a chemical reaction, it is most likely to be heat or light. However, heat and light often come together, and there are more reactions known to give heat without light than the other way around. Thus, I would go for heat then. (simply put)


What two kinds of energy changes can take place during 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.


Energy is given off in the form of heat during a?

exothermic reaction. This type of reaction releases energy to the surroundings as heat.


Is energy given off or required when chemical bonds are formed?

Yes because if you put something together the energy will change. Or if you put a chemical ( Any kind) It would change the energy that it 2was before. What kind of form of energy is it though!


What does the word exothermic change make you think of?

The term "exothermic change" typically refers to a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat. This makes me think of reactions where heat is given off to the surroundings, signifying that the reaction is exothermic.


What do chemical changes always take in or give off?

Some reactions give off heat (exothermic), others absorb heat (endothermic). All reactions increase entropy.


What is a chemical reaction in which more energy is given off than taken in?

Combustion, burning, releases more heat that is taken in to start the reaction.


The substance produced a result of a chemical reaction is?

Depends what the chemical reaction is. In all reactions energy is given off. In lot's of reactions also water (Hyrdodgen Oxide/ H2O) and CO2 in some cases. Hope that helped.


What energy that is given off the sun?

The sun releases energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation. This energy is generated through nuclear fusion reactions at the sun's core.


What occurs when energy is being given off or absorbed?

When energy is being given off, it is released in the form of heat, light, or sound depending on the source. When energy is being absorbed, it is taken in and used to perform work or to trigger chemical reactions.


Which of the following statements about the light reactions of photosynthesis are true?

The light reactions occur in the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast. The primary goal of the light reactions is to convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH. Water is split during the light reactions to provide electrons for the photosystems. The light reactions produce oxygen as a byproduct.
