Answer:

A chemical reaction is a process that occurs when two or more molecules interact to form a new product(s).

Endothermic reactions are chemical reactions in which the reactants absorb heat energy from the surroundings to form products.

Example:

A popular example of an endothermic chemical reaction is photosynthesis. During this process, plants absorb energy from the Sun and convert it into carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

An exothermic reaction releases energy into the surrounding of the system.

Example:

the chemical reaction between sodium and chlorine results in the formation of sodium chloride (also known as common salt).
