Thanks for this clarification! We had fun measuring the temperature change of the baking soda-vinegar reaction, and used it as evidence that a chemical reaction can cause temperature change either way.

We use single-use hand warmers as evidence of a chemical reaction causing heat release, and talked about oxidation.
