Breaking calcium carbonate into quicklime and carbon dioxide needs a steady supply of heat, so the reaction absorbs energy. An endothermic reaction takes in heat from its surroundings, while an exothermic reaction gives heat out.

Platinum is a noble metal and does not combine with oxygen even when heated in air. Metals low in the reactivity series, such as gold and platinum, hold on to their electrons very firmly, so oxygen cannot pull them away under ordinary conditions.

The Union Health Secretary's letter asks states and union territories to encourage the prominent display, wherever applicable, of the package rates offered to international patients travelling to India on these visas.
