Energy is always during chemical reactions. There may be a change in the of the surroundings due to energy being taken in or given out by the molecules. Reactions in which the surroundings get warmer are called , e.g. combustion, and the reactions of , and reactions in which they get colder are called , e.g. thermal reactions. Reactions will only occur if particles collide with sufficient .
One way of representing reactions is using a reaction , which shows the energy of the reactants and products. The height of the curve from the reactants is the , and the difference between the reactants and products is the of the reaction.
When bonds are in the reactants, energy is taken in. When bonds are in the products, energy is released. A reaction is exothermic if the energy released is the amount taken in.
