Chemical Reactions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is balance? | Occurs when the number and type of atoms on the reactant's and product's sides of a chemical equation are equal. |
| What is chemical change? | A change in substance that involves the breaking and reforming of chemical bonds to make new substance or substances. |
| what is chemical equation? | Chemical formulas and symbols that represents a chemical reaction. |
| What is chemical reaction? | The breaking of bonds to form a new substances(called the products). |
| What is coefficient? | A number placed in front of a chemical formula to make the number of atoms on each side of a chemical equation equal. |
| What is conservation of atoms? | Principle that states the number of each type of atom on the reactant's side must be equal to the number of each type of atom on the product's side of a chemical equation. |
| What is conservation of mass? | x |
| What is excess reactant? | A reactant that is not completely used up. |
| What is limiting reactant? | The reactant thaqt is used up first in a chemical reaction. |
| What is percent yield? | The actual yield of product in a chemical reaction divided by the predicted yield, and multiplied by one hundred to get a percentage. |
| What is physical change? | A change in the physical properties of a substancee. |
| What is polymer? | a large molecule that is composed of repeating smaller molecules called subunits or monomers. |
| What is product? | Substances that are produced in a chemical reaction from reactants. |
| What is reactant? | A substance that enters into and is altered in the course of a chemical reaction. |
| What is physical property? | The state, size, or shape of a substance. |
| What is Law of conservation mass? | Total mass of the products of a reaction is equal to the total mass of the reactants. |
| What is balanced equation | Shows the ratios of the number of molecules of reactants needed to make a certain number of molecules of products. |
| Whaqt is subscript? | Tells you the numberof each type of atom in the substance. |
| What is actual yeied? | Determined by simply measuring the mass, in grams, of the product produced in tthe actual reaction. |
| What is predicted yield? | Can be determined from the balanced equation for the reaction. |
| What is ratio? | The numerical relationship between two objects or substances. |
