Enthalpy of a reaction or energy change of a reaction D H, is the amount of energy or heat absorbed in a reaction. If the energy is required, D H is positive, and if energy is released, the D H, is negative.
A reaction in which energy is absorbed from the surroundings is called an endothermic reaction. In endothermic reactions the enthalpy of the products is greater than the enthalpy of the reactants. Because reactions release or absorb energy, they affect the temperature of their surroundings.
