  1. Endothermic process - Wikipedia

    In an endothermic process, the heat that a system absorbs is thermal energy transfer into the system. Thus, an endothermic reaction generally leads to an increase in the temperature of the system and a …

  2. Endothermic Reactions - Definition and Examples

    Apr 8, 2020 · An endothermic reaction feels cold because it absorbs heat from its surroundings. Examples of endothermic reactions include photosynthesis, dissolving salt in water, and chemical …

  3. 7.3: Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions - Chemistry LibreTexts

    In the course of an endothermic process, the system gains heat from the surroundings and so the temperature of the surroundings decreases (gets cold). A chemical reaction is exothermic if heat is …

  4. Endothermic vs. Exothermic Reactions - ChemTalk

    If the energy of C is greater than the energy of A and B, then the reaction is endothermic, and there is net energy absorbed. If, on the other hand, C has lower energy than A and B, the reaction is …

  5. Understanding Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions

    May 8, 2025 · The word “endothermic” comes from the Greek roots: “endo” meaning “within” and “thermic” meaning “heat.” So, an endothermic reaction is one that absorbs heat from its surroundings.

  6. Endothermic and Exothermic Chemical Reactions - ThoughtCo

    Jul 30, 2024 · Endothermic and exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that absorb and release heat, respectively. Photosynthesis is a good example of an endothermic reaction.

  7. Endothermic vs. Exothermic Reactions - Diffen

    An endothermic reaction occurs when energy is absorbed from the surroundings in the form of heat. Conversely, an exothermic reaction is one in which energy is released from the system into the …

  8. Endothermic Reactions Explained | The Chemistry Blog

    Dec 4, 2024 · When a reaction draws in energy to help it happen, this is endothermic. A vital part of understanding how chemistry works, endothermic reactions play an important role across industrial …

  9. Endothermic and exothermic processes | Research Starters - EBSCO

    An endothermic process involves the absorption of thermal energy, or heat, from the surrounding environment to cause a change in matter. An exothermic process involves the release of thermal …

  10. Endothermic Reaction - Equation, Definition ... - CK-12 Foundation

    Jan 1, 2026 · An endothermic reaction is a chemical reaction in which more energy is needed to break bonds in the reactants than is released when new bonds form in the products.
