Question

what happens in an exothermic reaction​

Answer 1

Answer:

An endothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which more energy is needed to break bonds in the reactants than is released when new bonds form in the products. A constant input of energy, often in the form of heat, is needed to keep an endothermic reaction going.

Answer 2

Explanation:

• In the case of an exothermic reaction, the reactants are at a higher energy level as compared to the products, as shown below in the energy diagram. In other words, the products are more stable than the reactants. Overall Δ H ΔH ΔH for the reaction is negative, i.e., energy is released in the form of heat.
