Why is respiration considered an exothermic reaction? Explain.

Answered by admin @ 20/08/2021

An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which energy is liberated out.

Respiration is considered as exothermic reaction because energy is released in this process.

Glucose combines with oxygen present in our cells to form carbon dioxide and water along with energy.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ----> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy
