| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Law Of Conservation of Mass | Energy can neither be created nor destroyed |
| Physical Change | Changes affecting a substance's physical form |
| Chemical Change | Changes affecting a substance's chemical composition |
| Element | A part of the periodic table. A type of atom. |
| Chemical Formula | How the molecule is created (w/ elements) |
| Element (Diatomic Molecule) | A molecule with only 1 element |
| Compound of Molecule | Multiple elements making up an element |
| Chemical Equation | Representation of a chemical reaction |
| Chemical Reaction | How 2+ element combine together to create a compound |
| Reactant (in a chem. equ.) | The left side, the individual elements |
| Products (in a chem. equ.) | The combination of the reactants |
| Coefficient (in a chem. equ.) | The # of a molecules |
| Subscript (in a chem. equ.) | The amount of an atom in a compound |
| Ionic Compound | a chemical compound in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds |
| Covalent Compound | a compound in which the atoms that are bonded share electrons rather than transfer electrons from one to the other |
| Metallic Compound | A metallic compound is a compound that contains one or more metal elements. |
| Synthesis | purposeful execution of chemical reactions to get a product, or several products |
| Decomposition | separation of a chemical compound into elements or simpler compounds |
| Single Replacement | when an element or ion moves out of one compound and into another |
| Double Replacement | two reactant ionic compounds exchange ions to form two new product compounds with the same ions. |
