Exothermic
Burning a match is an exothermic change because energy is being released.
Burning calories when exercising is an exothermic process because it involves the release of energy in the form of heat. The body breaks down stored molecules like glucose and fat to provide energy for muscle contractions during exercise.
Yes. A giraffe is endothermic, able to regulate its own body heat. It is a mammal, and all mammals and birds are endothermic. The term 'endothermic' is the correct name for an animal that is warm-blooded.
Reactions with oxygen (air) involved, like burning paper, are exothermic. Exception: formation of many nitrogen-oxygen compounds (NOx) are endothermic.
The burning of a fuel transforms chemical energy into heat and light energy.
An example of an endothermic process is evaporating. Evaporation requires an input of energy to convert liquid water into water vapor, so it is an endothermic process.
No, burning sugar is exothermic because it releases energy in the form of heat and light. The chemical reaction between sugar and oxygen produces carbon dioxide and water, along with energy that is released in the form of heat and light.
Honey is pure sugar. Sugar is about the worst for burning fat.
Any time you burn something, it's exothermic.
Exothermic, for within an endothermic (situation) there would be a drop of temperature *excuse my spelling if you would* , therefore to continue burning it will need to absorb the heat, where as exothermic reactions energy will be released as heat.
