| How is an equation written> | Reactants ----> Products |
| In any chemical reaction, an arrow between the reactants and the products is drawn out. What does the arrow symbolize? | the direction of the reaction |
| what does the law of conservation of mass state? | Mass cannot be created or destroyed during a chemical reaction. Therefore, once the reactants have been written and the products predicted, the equation must be balanced. |
| A state in which reactants are forming products at the same rate that products are forming reactants. | Equilibrium |
| Name 4 ways to increase the reaction rate | increase the temperature in the reaction, increase the surface area of the reactants, add a catalyst, or increase the concentrations of reactants. |
| If you increase the temperature in the reaction what happens? | causes the particles to have a greater kinetic energy causing them to move faster. Contact is when the chemical reactions will occur. |
| What happens when you increase the surface area of the particles in the reaction? | Gives the particles more opportunity to come into contact with one another. |
| accelerates a reaction by reducing the activation energy or the amount of energy necessary for a reaction to occur. | catalyst |
| what happens when you increase the concentration of the reactants? | It will cause more chance collisions between the reactants and produce more products. |
