There are far more spontaneous/favorable reactions that are exothermic than there are ones that are endothermic. This is because releasing heat to the surroundings is thermodynamically beneficial---it helps increase the entropy of the surroundings. So if you want to get something done, exothermic reactions tend to be good. It could also be that the heat evolved helps dissolve, loosen, etc. whatever is clogged. The other things plummers do is piping... they burn propane to heat copper pipe and solder fittings on. It is good to have an exothermic reaction there to melt the solder.
What else can I help you with?
Contrast endothermic and exothermic reactions?
Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions that use heat as part of the reactant. Heat is absorbed into the reaction in order for it to continue. Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that release heat as a product of the reaction.
Use the word exothermic in a sentence?
The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water is exothermic, releasing heat energy in the process.
How should a student use the keyword "heat" to determine if a reaction is exothermic?
A student can use the keyword "heat" to determine if a reaction is exothermic by observing if heat is released during the reaction. If the reaction gives off heat, it is exothermic.
How should a student use a thermometer to determine if a reaction is exothermic?
To determine if a reaction is exothermic, a student should use a thermometer to measure the temperature change during the reaction. If the temperature increases, it indicates that the reaction is exothermic, releasing heat.
How do you use exothermic change in a sentence?
Jack recorded the exothermic change as the reaction progressed

Can you use caulk instead of plumbers putty?
No. Use the putty.
Do plumbers use screwdrivers?
Yes.
Do plumbers use a wrench?
Yes, most plumbers use at least 3 pipe wrenches, (12", 18" and 24 " ) and a large crescent wrench.
Contrast endothermic and exothermic reactions?
Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions that use heat as part of the reactant. Heat is absorbed into the reaction in order for it to continue. Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that release heat as a product of the reaction.
Who usually uses monkey wrench?
Plumbers use them
Why do plumbers use fraction in their career?
Plumbers commonly need to use fractions in their career. The reason for this is that the pipes that they use is measured primarily in fractions, such as 1 3/4' pipe. Plumbers often have to custom make fittings, which requires them to be able to calculate in fractions in order to get a good fit.
What is an alternative to plumbers putty?
You can use silicone as a substitute, but plumbers putty is simpler and far easier to clean up. 100% SILICONE
Who uses a pipe wrench?
Plumbers mostly.ANS 2 -Well technicians probably use pipe wrenches more than plumbers nowadays.
What is exothermic use in a sentence?
Jody, a user on WikiAnswers, carried out an exothermic reaction in her Chemistry lesson at school.
