Are the chemical reactions of a battery an exothermic or an endothermic reaction?

EXOTHERMIC because the electrons flow from one to another so its exothermic NOT endothermic! B/c it RELEASES energy!

What is energy of radiant objects such as fire?
Radiant energy is exothermic energy. Fire is a chemical reaction that produces heat. This heat is released as a result of the exothermic chemical reaction.
Which type of chemical reaction absorbs thermal energy?
Endothermic
What created when alkaline earth metals and water combined?
When they are reacted, a base and hydrogen gas is produced. This reaction is exothermic.
Is paint drying exothermic?
As paint dries through the process of oxidation the reaction produces heat, which is an exothermic reaction.
How do you know that a chemical change took place when sodium and clorine join to form table salt?
it is an ionic and exothermic reaction i.e. when it will take place heat will be liberated
A chemical reaction that releases energy is called?
Exothermic reactions
What is the opposite of exothermic?
The opposite of exothermic is endothermic. Exothermic reactions are those which give off energy in the form of heat. Endothermic reactions require energy.
A chemical reaction that requires a net input of energy?
"Activation Energy reactions"; Endothermic reactions require energy.
Two types of chemical reactions?
Two kind of chemical reactions are exothermic and endothermic reactions. An exothermic reaction is one that releases energy. An endothermic reaction is one that absorbs energy. Hope this helps!! :)
Is combustion exothermic or endothermic?
exothermic reactions are the reactions which give out heat and endothermic reactions are the reaction which absorb heat.so combustion is an exothermic reaction.
What type of chemical absorbs energy?
The two kinds of chemical reactions are endothermic and exothermic. A chemical reaction that absorbs energy is called an endothermic reaction.
What is the diffrencence between exothermic reaction and chemical reaction?
Exothermic reaction is just one of the two possible chemical reactions: either exothermic or endothermic. (No difference but heat release)
What is the type of chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed?
Endothermic reactions.Endo- means 'inside' which is where the energy ends up.Exothermic reactions give off energy. Exo- means 'outside'. Think that a spider sheds an 'exo'skeleton, or a skin on the outside.
What is the chemical formula of a exothermic reaction?
Impossible to answer. Exothermic reaction is just one of the two possible chemical reactions: either exothermic or endothermic. (No difference but heat release)
What is the difference between an exothermic and an endothermic chemical reaction?
Nothing to explain; that is the way EXO- and ENDOthemic reactions are called by definition
How does an exothermic reaction differ from n endothermic reaction?
Exothermic reactions release heat. Endothermic reactions take in heat.
Endothermic and exothermic reaction?
An exothermic reaction releases energy, usually to the surroundings. There is a net loss of energy from the reactants. However, exothermic reactions also need a little energy to get started, but this is less than the eventual amount given out. An endothermic reaction takes in energy, also usually from the surroundings. There is a net gain of energy into the reactions. Again, a little energy is lost, but this is hardly anything compared to the amount taken in.
