Give an example of exothermic reaction.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The chemical reactions which are accompained by evolution of heat are called exothemic reations.
Example: When calcium oxide (CaO) is added to water, calcium hydroxide `(Ca(OH)_2)` is formed with generation of large amount of heat .
`underset("oxide")underset("Calcium")(CaO_((S)))+H_2O_((l))rarrunderset("hydroxide")underset("Calcium")(Ca(OH)_(2(aq)))+"Heat"`
