Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Energy is released in which chemical reaction?
A
endothermic
B
exothermic
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chemical reactions that release energy are called exothermic. In exothermic reactions, more energy is released when the bonds are formed in the products than is used to break the bonds in the reactants. Exothermic reactions are accompanied by an increase in temperature of the reaction mixture.

Detailed explanation-2: -An exothermic process releases heat, causing the temperature of the immediate surroundings to rise. An endothermic process absorbs heat and cools the surroundings.”

Detailed explanation-3: -Where is the exothermic heat energy coming from? The heat comes from the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the reactant molecules–which is greater than the energy stored in the chemical bonds of product molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -Exothermic reactions give off energy, so energy is a product. Endothermic reactions require energy, so energy is a reactant.

Detailed explanation-5: -Introduction. In simple terms, the endothermic reactions absorb energy from the surrounding that is in the form of heat. On the other hand, an exothermic reaction releases energy into the surrounding of the system.
