Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions: Endothermic reactions absorb energy (usually heat) from their surroundings, while exothermic reactions release energy to the surroundings.
Identify the energy flow in the reaction: If a reaction requires energy input to proceed, it is endothermic; if it releases energy, it is exothermic.
Analyze the given options: Neutralization and combustion reactions are typically exothermic because they release heat.
Recognize that the term 'Endothermic reaction' directly describes a reaction that absorbs energy from its surroundings.
Conclude that the correct answer is 'Endothermic reaction' because it matches the definition of absorbing energy.
