Answers
Respiration is a burning process of food in body to produce energy. Respiration is considered as an exothermic reaction because, in respiration process, oxidation of glucose takes place which produces a large amount of heat energy which stored in the form of ATP. This is shown in following chemical equation.
It involves the burning of sugar with oxygen, within the cells of every living organism to produce the energy needed for all the reactions of life along with water and carbon dioxide as waste products. Respiration is another exothermic reaction. and this reaction releases energy.
Brushing your teeth, washing your hair, and lighting your stove are all examples of exothermic reactions. Keep reading to learn about combustion, neutralization, corrosion, and water-based exothermic reactions.
