Endothermic and Exothermic
Reactions
Energy and Reactions
Energy is involved in chemical reactions in two
ways:
1.
to break some (or all) bonds between atoms in the
reactants so the atoms can form new bonds or
2.
when the atoms or products form new bonds to make
new products.
Two Types of Reactions
We classify chemical reactions based on how the
energy of the reactants compares to the energy of
the products.
Exothermic reactions
If forming new bonds
releases more energy than
it takes to break the old
bonds, the reaction is
exothermic.
Exothermic reactions
A good example is the reaction of hydrogen
with oxygen.
Once started, exothermic reactions tend to keep
going as each reaction releases more energy to
fuel neighboring molecules.
Endothermic reactions
If forming new bonds in
the products releases
less energy than it took
to break the original
bonds, the reaction is
endothermic.
Endothermic reactions
An important endothermic reaction is
photosynthesis.
Plants need energy from sunlight to make
glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and
water.

Activation Energy
Activation energy is the energy needed to begin a
reaction and break chemical bonds in the
reactants.
Activation Energy
This is why a flammable
material like gasoline
does not burn without a
spark or flame.
Examples of
Endothermic Reactions
Most of the reactions used in industry to produce
useful materials require more energy than they
produce.
One process that uses endothermic reactions is the
refining of ores to produce useful metals.
Examples of
Endothermic Reactions
Most of the reactions used in
industry to produce useful
materials require more energy
than they produce.
The reaction taking place inside
an instant cold pack is
endothermic.
Examples of
Endothermic Reactions
When you squeeze the plastic bag the water reacts
with the ammonium nitrate crystals, and the
reaction dissolves the ionic bonds in the ammonium
nitrate.
