An endothermic process is a chemical process that absorbs energy in the form of heat. Frying an egg involves an endothermic process, as the egg absorbs heat energy from the frying pan. Any chemical process in which a substance takes heat from the surrounding environment is endothermic.
An exothermic process, by contrast, releases energy in the form of heat. Burning a log of wood involves an exothermic process, as the burning wood releases heat, ash and smoke into the surrounding environment.
