Yes.

Example:

Nitrogen Triiodide NI3

This is a very unstable compound due to the loan pair on the nitrogen.

2NI3 --> N2 + 3I2

Nitrogen gas is very stable and is a thermodynamic sink causing a large amount of energy (explosive) to be released during its formation.

What is energy of radiant objects such as fire?

Radiant energy is exothermic energy. Fire is a chemical reaction that produces heat. This heat is released as a result of the exothermic chemical reaction.


What reaction releases energy?

exothermic reactions release energy, like a fire, which releases heat ( also endothermic reactions requires and takes/absorbs energy for its reaction like photosynthesis which requires sunlight)

Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic, and what is the enthalpy of the reaction?

The reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases heat. The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, indicating that it is exothermic.


What is the type of heat reaction which occurs when heat is given off by the reaction?

Heat is released during an exothermic reaction.


Is fire exothermic?

This is an incomplete question. You mean to say, "Is fire an exothermic reaction?". Even when the question is phrased this way, it still doesn't make sense. Fire is a product of a reaction, meaning energy (in form of heat) is produced. If fire is being produced, then the reaction that caused the release of heat is the exothermic reaction, not the fire.


A chemical reaction in which heat is released is?

exothermic reaction .


A reaction that releases energy in the form of heat?

An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat. This type of reaction typically results in a rise in temperature in the surrounding environment. Examples include combustion and neutralization reactions.
