Question

explain the term exothermic reaction with two example​

Answer 1

An exothermic process releases heat, causing the temperature of the immediate surroundings to rise.

Examples:-

• any combustion reaction.
• a neutralization reaction.
• rusting of iron (rust steel wool with vinegar)
• the thermite reaction.

Answer 2

An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy through light or heat. It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction.

Expressed in a chemical equation: reactants → products + energy. Exothermic Reaction means "exo" (derived from the Greek word: "έξω", literally translated to "out") meaning releases and "thermic" means heat. So the reaction in which there is release of heat with or without light is called exothermic reaction.

Examples of Exothermic Reactions

• any combustion reaction.
• a neutralization reaction.
• rusting of iron (rust steel wool with vinegar)
