Next time you bake a cake, consider this. The cake dough is not really a cake, but when it's heated in the oven, a chemical reaction occurs and new bonds are formed. How does heat change things? When it comes to heat changing a chemical reaction, there are two types. One is "exothermic," a reaction that produces heat, and the other is "endothermic," a reaction that takes heat in. When you make a cake, you a producing an endothermic chemical reaction which changes batter to baked!
