==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
An [[exothermic]] process is one that gives out [[energy]]. This usually causes surroundings to increase in [[temperature]].
===About Exothermic Processes===
: Most [[Chemical Reaction|chemical reactions]] are [[exothermic]] with means they release [[energy]] to the environment and this is observed by an increase in [[temperature]].
: [[Freezing]], [[Condensing]] and [[Depositing]] are [[exothermic]] changes because it releases [[energy]] when it happens. The [[material]] has less [[after]] it has happened. However, there is usually no increase in [[temperature]] because the [[material]] is being cooled to [[State Change|change state]].
