Are exothermic reactions decomposition reactions or are they synthesis reactions

Synthesis reactions are generally characterized by being exothermic. Decomposition reactions are usually endothermic.

What do thermal insulators have

Thermal insulators have insulating capabilities. This means that they do not have any aspect that allows them to conduct thermal energy.

Solid metals undergo greater thermal expansion than liquids do
