Exothermic processes
Exothermic processes, a fundamental concept in thermodynamics, play a pivotal role in various natural and synthetic phenomena. These processes release energy in the form of heat to the surrounding environment, resulting in temperature increases and often manifesting in observable changes such as chemical reactions or phase transitions. Understanding the principles governing exothermic processes is essential across numerous scientific disciplines, including chemistry, physics, and engineering. In this introduction, we will explore the underlying mechanisms, applications, and implications of exothermic reactions, shedding light on their significance in both theoretical and practical contexts.
