The word means: exo- "out" and -thermic "heat". So when heat is lost that is this sort of change of state. Endothermic is the opposite of exothermic.

Is freezing an endothermic change or a exothermic change?

It is an exothermic change


Is freezing an example of an exothermic chemical change?

No because in an exothermic change energy is released not taken in. Melting would be an example of exothermic change.

Which physical state changes are EXOthermic?

Freezing and condensing.


Which state changes are exothermic and endothermic?

freezing is exothermic, melting is endothermic, evaporation is endothermic, condensation is exothermic.


Is Freezing of ethanol endothermic or exothermic?

Freezing of ethanol is an exothermic process. During freezing, ethanol transitions from a liquid state to a solid state, releasing heat to the surroundings as the molecules arrange into a more ordered structure. This release of heat energy indicates that the process is exothermic.


Is freezing an example of endothermic or exothermic change?

Freezing is an exothermic process because heat is released when a substance changes from a liquid to a solid, lowering the temperature of the surroundings.


Which phase change is an exothermic process?

Change of phase from gas to liquid to solid are exothermic reaction. Condensation, deposition and freezing are exothermic processes that undergo change in phase.


What is a change in state from a liquid to a solid state?

Freezing is the change in state from liquid to solid.


Witch of the following phase changes is an exothermic change?

An exothermic phase change is one that releases heat to the surroundings. Among common phase changes, freezing (liquid to solid) and condensation (gas to liquid) are exothermic processes. During these changes, energy is released as the substance transitions to a more stable state.


Is freezing mercury a change of state?

Yes, freezing anything is a change of state.


Freezing is a change of state true or false?

Yes, freezing is change of state, from liquid to solid. Freezing is a physical change, not a chemical change.
