Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions

To be able to describe an exothermic and endothermic reaction using words and diagrams

Exothermic Reaction

• Another example of a chemical reaction is an exothermic reaction

• Exothermic reactions release thermal energy to the surroundings

• In an exothermic reactions the temperature increases

These are exothermic reactions

• combustion [burning]

• heating magnesium

• neutralisation reaction [this is when an acid and alkali react together]

• rusting of an iron nail

Multiple Choice

What is an exothermic reaction?

• heat energy is given out to the surroundings

• heat energy is taken into the substance
