The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The term exothermic was coined by 19th-century French chemist Marcellin Berthelot.
- The opposite of an exothermic process is an endothermic process, one that absorbs energy, usually in the form of heat.
- The concept is frequently applied in the physical sciences to chemical reactions where chemical bond energy is converted to thermal energy.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Exothermic process article was read about 18,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 39: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
