Chemical Reactions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| starting material in a chemical reaction | reactant |
| gets made in a chemical reaction | product |
| speeds up a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy needed | catalyst |
| having 1 atom | monatomic |
| having 2 atoms | diatomic |
| having 4 atoms | tetratomic |
| states that mass is not created or destroyed in chemical reaction [ # of atoms must be same on both sides ] | law of conservation of mass |
| AB --> A + B [reaction type] | decomposition reaction |
| A + B --> AB [reaction type] | synthesis reaction |
| AB + C --> CB + A [reaction type] | single replacement reaction |
| AB + CD --> AD + CB [reaction type] | double replacement reaction |
| CxHy + O2 --> CO2 + H2O [reaction type] | combustion reaction |
| chemical equation that is not balanced | skeleton |
| numbers placed in front to balance equation by multiplying | coefficients |
| small numbers written after atom/compound that tells the number of atoms [is NEVER changed to balance] | subscripts |
| having 8 atoms | octatomic |
| these determine if a single replacement reaction will happen | activity series of metals and halogens list |
| location of products | right side |
| location of reactants | left side |
| location of catalysts | above the arrow |
| containing water | aqueous (aq) |
| solid made from mixing liquids together | precipitate |
