Achemical reaction takes place within a test tube. after the reaction, the test tube feels warmer than it did before the reaction. the reaction was: endothermic exothermic ectothermic esothermic

The correct answer is exothermic. An exothermic reaction is a reaction that releases heat, and therefore it transfers heat to the surroundings (in this case, the tube), making it warmer. Instead, in an endothermic reaction, the heat is absorbed by the reaction. 

The chemical reactions lab we did is typically called a "copper plating lab,  because the acid solution cleaned the pennies and made the copper look shinier;   the acid solution cleaned the paperclips and made them look like pennies;   &   the copper from the pennies was removed, and then added to the paperclips.
