The body releases energy by respiring (respiration) Respiration is the chemical reaction of which your body makes energy from the food in our cells in our body
There are two types of respiration;
Aerobic Respiration - This type releases energy from food
The equation for this is - Glucose + Oxygen -----> Carbon Dioxide + Water + ENERGY
Anaerobic respiration - also releases energy from food, But this produces Lactic acid and energy instead
The equation for this is - Glucose --------> Lactic Acid + Energy
An exothermic reaction releases energy to its surroundings.
A reaction that releases energy is exothermic.
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat. The energy released during the reaction increases the temperature of the surroundings. This type of reaction commonly involves the formation of bonds which releases more energy than is required to break the existing bonds.
The general term for a chemical reaction that releases heat is an exothermic reaction. The energy released is called enthalpy.A reaction that releases energy is called an exothermic reaction.
combustion
Yes, energy is release in the process. It involves the breaking down of a molecule into smaller subunits.
Decomposition reaction involves breaking of bonds. Huge amount of energy is released.
An exothermic reaction releases energy to its surroundings.
A reaction that releases energy is exothermic.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases energy in the form of heat or light. This type of reaction usually feels warm to the touch and may involve combustion or decomposition of reactants. Examples include burning wood, rusting iron, and neutralization reactions.
Exothermic reactions
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy in the form of heat. The energy released during the reaction increases the temperature of the surroundings. This type of reaction commonly involves the formation of bonds which releases more energy than is required to break the existing bonds.
No that is false. Increasing temperature favors the reaction that absorbs energy, not that releases energy as heat.
Energy is often absorbed during a decomposition reaction because the reactant breaks down into smaller molecules or atoms. This process typically requires energy input to break the existing chemical bonds.
Exothermic reaction
A reaction that releases energy is usually termed exothermic reaction. Energy is usually released as heat.
