1The combustion of fossil fuels is an exothermic reaction that releases a significant amount of energy.
2Can you explain why the exothermic reaction in the experiment caused the thermometer to rise so rapidly?
3The new material is designed to undergo an exothermic reaction when exposed to high temperatures, which can be harnessed to generate electricity.
4In an exothermic process, the system loses energy to the surroundings, which can lead to a decrease in entropy.
5The researchers studied the exothermic decomposition of the compound to understand its thermal stability and potential applications.
