	Exothermic reaction - an introduction - Citizendium
		In chemistry, an exothermic reaction is one that releases energy in the form of heat.
		It is the opposite of an endothermic reaction.
		For an exothermic reaction, this gives a negative value for ΔH, since a larger value (the energy released in the reaction) is subtracted from a smaller value (the energy used for the reaction).

	The MSDS HyperGlossary: Exothermic and Endothermic
		A reaction that is exothermic will be endothermic if run backward and vice-versa.
		However, because the reaction draws heat from its surroundings, the reaction container may become cold and cause condensation or ice to form.
		Therefore, it is very important to know when a chemical reaction can generate excess heat and to take appropriate measures to deal with this.

		In an exothermic reaction, the total energy absorbed in bond breaking is less than the total energy released in bond making.
		For an exothermic reaction, this gives a negative value for ΔH, since a larger value (the energy released in the reaction) is subtracted from a smaller value (the energy used for the reaction).
		In endergonic reactions and exergonic reactions it is the sign of the Gibbs free energy that count and not enthalpy.

	Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions
		This reaction displays the endothermic process and illustrated the interaction between changes in enthalpy and entropy is spontaneous chemical reactions.
		An endothermic reaction may thus be spontaneous at constant pressure if the positive value of the heat absorbed is offset by a sufficient increase in entropy (randomness).
		In the reaction between barium hydroxide octahydrate and ammonium nitrate, the large increase in entropy is related to the increase in the number of particles present and their states (remember that two solids are combining to form a solid product and some liquid).

	Reaction Injection Molding RIM
		Resistance to weathering and aging is another plus, though extended exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays typically results in a color shift at the surface.
		When injection begins and valves in the mixhead open, the liquid reactants enter a chamber in the mixhead at pressures between 1,500 and 3,000 psi where they are intensively mixed by high-velocity impingement.
		From the mix chamber, the liquid flows into the mold at approximately atmospheric pressure and undergoes an exothermic chemical reaction, forming the polyurethane polymer in the mold.

	Mass-Energy Conservation in Reactions
		In the case of endothermic reactions the addition of energy in the form of radiation is an addition of a minuscule amount of the equivalent amount of mass.
		First, it is assumed that the reaction vessel is not moving at speeds approaching the speed of light, for then relativistic corrections to the mass would have to be taken into account.
		All that said: your present question (about an exothermic reaction in a glass container floating in vacuum) presupposes that all of the energy generated by the exothermic reaction is lost to the environment.

	Emergency Planning for Chemical Spills - Chemicals in the WorkPlace
		Exothermic reactions pose special hazards whether occurring in the open environment or within a closed container.
		In this case, however, increasing internal temperatures as well as the evolution of gases from the reaction may increase internal pressures to the point that the tank or container ruptures violently in an over-pressurization explosion, thus suddenly releasing large amounts of possibly flammable and/or toxic gases or vapors into the atmosphere.
		Once polymerization starts, an exothermic chain reaction may occur that develops high temperatures and pressures within containers and which can lead to possible explosion or violent rupture of the container and/or discharge of flammable and/or toxic gases if safety and control systems malfunction are lacking.

		Good exothermic cleaning fluxes float the oxides to the surface and then put them through an exothermic chemical reaction to separate the trapped metal droplets in the oxide.
		Rabbling an exothermic flux into the upper surface of the molten metal, causes flux to stick to the oxide particles due to its chemical affinity for hydrogen and oxides.
		Next, the exothermic nature of the flux causes the heated dross to become very hot, thus releasing the aluminum droplets back into the bath.
