Welcome to our exploration of chemical reactions! Today we'll learn about exothermic and endothermic reactions. Chemical reactions can either release energy to their surroundings or absorb energy from them. This fundamental difference affects the temperature changes we observe during reactions.
An exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that releases energy, usually in the form of heat or light, into its surroundings. When this happens, the temperature of the surroundings increases. You can think of it as the reaction giving off energy to the environment. A common example is combustion, like when wood burns and releases heat and light.
