Meanings

Endothermic - Involving a net ABSORPTION of energy

Exothermic - Involving a net RELEASE of energy

Exothermic Reactions

Some reactions transfer energy from the reacting chemicals to the surroundings. These are called Exothermic Reactions. The energy released, often HEATS UP the surroundings. From this, we can measure a RISE in temperature.

Endothermic Reactions

Some reactions transfer energy from…
