Snow formation in clouds.
Burning of a candle.
Rusting of iron.
Burning of sugar.
Formation of ion pairs.
Reaction of Strong acid and Water.
Explanation:
An exothermic reaction is defined as a reaction that releases heat and has a net negative standard enthalpy change. Examples include any combustion process, rusting of iron, and freezing of water. Exothermic reactions are reactions that release energy into the environment in the form of heat.
