Answer:

All chemical reactions is known to involve the transfer of energy.

Endothermic processes require an input of energy to proceed and are signified by a positive change in enthalpy, while exothermic processes release energy upon completion, and are signified by a negative change in enthalpy.

Step-by-step explanation:

the major difference between endothermic and exothermic reactions is seen in the words themselves. "Thermic" refers to heat, just as in the word "thermometer." "Exo" means "outside" and "endo" means "inside." Thus, an endothermic reaction pulls heat into an object or area, while an exothermic reaction expels heat

Answer:

Endothermic Reactions (Non-spontaneous) require energy to react

Exothermic Reactions (Spontaneous) don't require energy to react

Step-by-step explanation:

Doing your Homework = endothermic pathway (we need ATP)

Watching netflix = exothermic pathway (fueling this action by going down the pleasure gradient)
