Endothermic reactions are characterized by the release of heat during the reaction. A typical example is the combustion of methane, which when combined with oxygen releases water and carbon dioxide.

What is the name given to reactions which take in heat?

An endothermal (or endothermic) process is the name of the process in which heat is taken in. In an exothermal (or exothermic) process, heat is released.


A reaction that absorbs energy is called?

Endothermic-take in Heat, as opposed to exothermic which gives off heat-like a fire or explosion.


How would you know if a reaction was endothermic or exothermic?

An endothermic reaction is one in which thermal energy, or heat, is absorbed. If heat is absorbed in the reaction process, it is endothermic. By monitoring the temperature of the reactants in a reaction, an observer could identify an endothermic reaction through observation of a decrease in the temperature.


How would you expect energy to change during a chemical reaction?
