Answer is
Exothermic and endothermic reactions
Explanation
On the Basis of heat the chemical reactions are of two types. i. e ,
- Exothermic reaction
- Endothermic reaction.
Exothermic reaction
- Exothermic = heat is producing. "Exo" is putted from greek language which means 'out' and "thermic" means heat. So , Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which production of heat takes place in the form of heat or can be light.
- The general chemical reaction for exothermic reaction is given below ,
- Reactants ————›» Product + Energy ( Heat ).
- The amount of energy or heat released is given by ∆H.
- Example of exothermic reaction is nuclear fission.
Endothermic reaction
- Endo = absorbing , Thermic = Heat .
- So the Endothermic reaction is opposite of exothermic reaction i. e. Endothermic reaction = Heat absorbing reaction.
- So , Endothermic reaction is defined as the chemical reaction which requires energy in the form of heat to give products.
- General reaction → Reactants + Energy ( Heat ) —————›» Products.
- Example of endothermic reaction is Evaporation , Melting of ice.
