Solution Steps

Step 1: Understanding the Question

The question asks for the term used to describe a process that releases heat. This is a basic concept in thermodynamics.

Step 2: Analyzing the Options

The options provided are:

  • Endothermic
  • Exothermic
  • Energetic
  • Electric
Step 3: Identifying the Correct Term

In thermodynamics, a process that releases heat to its surroundings is known as an "exothermic" process. An "endothermic" process, on the other hand, absorbs heat. The terms "energetic" and "electric" do not specifically relate to the release of heat.

Final Answer

The correct answer is \(\boxed{\text{exothermic}}\).
