An endothermic reaction or process takes place when the system absorbs heat energy from the surrounding environment. In an exothermic reaction or process, energy is released into the environment, usually in the form of heat, but also electricity, sound, or light.
Endothermic reactions are the opposite. The new bonds require more energy. This comes from heating the substances, or sometimes, comes from the surrounding environment. Absorbing heat energy from the environment makes everything decrease in temperature so the reaction 'feels' cooler.
