When methane is burned, it reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. This process releases energy in the form of heat and light, making it an exothermic reaction. The formation of the stronger bonds in carbon dioxide and water releases more energy than is required to break the bonds in methane and oxygen.
Yes, burning paper is an example of an exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light energy.
Burning of LPG is an exothermic reaction because it releases heat and energy in the form of light and heat during the combustion process.
Let's think about what happens in the combustion of methane. Take natural gas for example (methane) used to heat homes, or used in stoves. The product is heat, therefore heat is given off. Therefore EXOTHERMIC.
Yes, wood burning is an exothermic reaction. It releases heat and light energy to its surroundings as chemical bonds in the wood molecules are broken and new ones are formed during combustion.
When something burns it gives off heat. Therefore, it is exothermic.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction with release of heat. As an example the burning reaction of methane: CH4 + 2 O2 ------→ CO2 + 2 H2O
Burning release heat, the molecular structure of methane is destroyed and the bonding energy is released.
In exothermic reactions heat is liberated. So reaction can be reactants---->products+heat
Exothermic reaction: reaction with release of heat; for example burning of organic materials (oxydation of carbon) is a typical exothermic reaction.

An exothermic reaction involves the release of heat into a system. The burning of a candle is combustion reaction. Combustion reaction release heat, and this can be detected and measured by the burning of a candle's wax. From these testable observations it is determined fact that candle burning is indeed exothermic.
