What is the difference between an exothermic and an endothermic reaction?
If a reaction is exothermic, it means that it gives out energy, heating up its surroundings, and so the products have less energy than the reactants.
If a reaction is endothermic, it means that it takes in energy, cooling its surroundings, and so the products have more energy than the reactants.
