∙ 12y agoThere are so many examples of exothermic reactions that is the reactions in whoch energy is released.
All the oxidation reactions are exothermic reactions .
similarly hydrogenation of alkenes like ethene,cyclohexene etc. are also exothermic reactions with different energies being released during these reactions.
The cause for release of energy during these reactions is simple, if the energy relleased due to formation of new bonds that is the bonds of products is more than the energy consumed for breaking the bonds of reactants then such reactions are exothermic.
So, ENTHALPY CHANGE =Bond energy of reactants - Bond energy of Products
The amount of energy released is thus dependent on the values of bond energies.
For example in case of hydrogenation of cyclohexene, Benzene and Cyclooctene these values are 120 kj/mole, 210 kj/mole and 23 kcal/mole respectively

∙ 12y agoBurning of a candle is an example of an exothermic reaction. The reaction releases heat energy to the surroundings in the form of light and heat. This is because the products of the reaction have lower energy content than the reactants, resulting in a net release of energy.
Exothermic Reaction because the fizzing is CO2 being released as heat (energy).
No, oil itself is not an example of an exothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that release heat to the surroundings, while oil is a type of liquid formed from various hydrocarbons. Heating oil can lead to combustion, which is an exothermic reaction.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction with release of heat. As an example the burning reaction of methane: CH4 + 2 O2 ------→ CO2 + 2 H2O
No, the formation of bubbles in a soda is not an example of an exothermic reaction. It is actually a result of a physical process called carbonation, where carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in the liquid under pressure.
In exothermic reactions heat is liberated. So reaction can be reactants---->products+heat
For example in an exothermic chemical reaction.
An exothermic reaction is a reaction where heat or light energy is released. An example of this type of reaction is burning a candle.
Exothermic reaction: reaction with release of heat; for example burning of organic materials (oxydation of carbon) is a typical exothermic reaction.
Yes, burning paper is an example of an exothermic reaction because it releases heat and light energy.
An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat. This type of reaction typically results in a rise in temperature in the surrounding environment. Examples include combustion and neutralization reactions.
Exothermic Reaction because the fizzing is CO2 being released as heat (energy).

does it matter? an exothermic reaction has heat as a biproduct of the product while an endothermic reaction has heat as a part of the reactants. meaning heat is released in exothermic and absorbed in endothermic
No, the formation of bubbles in a soda is not an example of an exothermic reaction. It is actually a result of a physical process called carbonation, where carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in the liquid under pressure.
Lightning is a result of an exothermic reaction, where energy is released in the form of light and heat. The rapid movement of electrons through the atmosphere creates the visible flash known as lightning.
In exothermic reactions heat is liberated. So reaction can be reactants---->products+heat
