Yes, the halogens, particularly fluorine and chlorine are strong oxidizers like oxygen.

Substances can "burn" in these gases and produce a flame.

What Are some similities between photosynthesis and endothermic reaction?

It is a exothermic reaction. So there is nothing similar.


How are exothermic and exothermic reaction are different and how are they the same?

Endothermic and exothermic reactions are similar in that both have reactants and products. They are different in that exothermic reactions release energy through reacting and endothermic reactions absorb it.

Can a exothermic reaction be used to fire an engine?

Yes, exothermic reactions are commonly used to power engines, such as in combustion engines where fuel undergoes exothermic reactions to generate heat and drive the pistons. This process is used in vehicles like cars and airplanes to provide propulsion.


What is an endothermic compound and what is an exothermic compound?

An endothermic compound absorbs heat or energy from its surroundings during a chemical reaction, causing a decrease in temperature. An exothermic compound releases heat or energy into its surroundings during a chemical reaction, causing an increase in temperature.


Summarize the process of alcoholic fermentation in yeast?

Anaerobic respiration, namely alcoholic fermentation. This process is very similar to glycolysis, except for the fact that alcoholic fermentation replaces one enzyme with two enzymes that change pyruvic acid into ethanol and carbon dioxide.


How can endothermic and exothermic reactions work alike?

Endothermic and exothermic reactions are similar in that both have reactants and products. They are different in that exothermic reactions release energy through reacting and endothermic reactions absorb it.


What happens when you mix phosphorus triiodide and water?

Phosphorus triiodide reacts violently with water, so the reaction is exothermic. If a large amount of phosphorus triiodide is mixed, an explosion will most likely occur. If it is a small amount, then it will be similar to the reaction of potassium with water.
