Exothermic reactions are chemical reactions that proceed with the release of heat energy. I contrast, endothermic reactions involve absorption of heat.

The enthalpy change (ΔH) for exothermic reactions is negative while that of endothermic reactions is positive.

In the given examples, reactions that show a negative ΔH are:

NH3 + HCl NH4Cl  ΔH = -176 KJ/mol

2Mg + O2 2MgO  ΔH = -1203 kj/mol

C + O2 CO2 ΔH = -393.5 kj/mol

CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O  ΔH = -891 kj/mol
