Unit 3:A/B Review

Terms for Chemistry.

TermDefinition
Evidence of a Chemical Reaction Temperature Change (Hot or Cold); Creates a gas; Bubbles; Smell; Color change (Conditional)
Reactants Substances you start with
Products New substances created
Solid (s) One of the states of matter, solidified
Liquid (l) One of the states of matter, liquefied
Gas (g) One of the states of matter, evaporated
Aqueous (aq) Elements in water (H20)
Yields Arrow (-->) Always go left to right; Always addition NOT subtraction; Represented by yields, reacts to form, creates, forms, combusts, etc.
Diatomic Elements H2, O2, N2, Br2, Cl2, I2, F2
Law of Conservation of Matter Mass cannot be created or destroyed, It simply changes form
Most Common Driving Forces Produces a solid, produces a gas, produces water, produces electricity (transfer of electrons.)
Synthesis A + B --> AB
Decomposition AB --> A + B
Single Displacement/Replacement A + BC --> AC + B
Double Displacement/Replacement AB + CD --> AD + CB
Combustion Reaction Hydrocarbon + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
Precipitation Reaction AB(aq) + CD(aq) --> AC(aq) + BC(s)
Acid/Base Reactions acid + base --> salt (Metal & Halogen or Polyatomic ion) + water (H2O)
Molecular Equations Complete reaction for all formulas of reactants & products
Ionic Equations All parts show their ions
Spectator Ions Ions that do not participate in the reactions: still in aqueous solutions
Net Ionic Equation Shows only those components that are directly involved in the reaction
Oxidation Reduction (Redox) Synthesis reactions of metals with non-metals (can be single displacement or another type on occasion.) Electrons are transferred from the metal to the non-metal
Oxidation Losing electrons; oxidized (Remember OilRig!)
Reduction Gaining electrons; reduced(Remember OilRig!)
Rules for Oxidation States/Numbers (1-3) 1.) Sum of Oxidation #s in an ENTIRE compound must equal 0 2.) Sum of Oxidation #s in polyatomic ions equals the charge of the ion 3.) The oxidation state of uncombined elements and diatomic elements is 0
Rules for Oxidation States/Numbers (4-7) 4.) In ionic compounds the oxidation # equals the ionic charge 5.) Oxygen is almost always -2 6.) Hydrogen is 1+ except when paired with metals, then its -1 7.) Covalent compounds: most electronegative has the negative ox #
Stoichiometry A branch of chemistry that deals w/ the relative quantity of reactants & products
The Mole/Avogadro's Number 6.02 x 10^23
Molar Mass/Formula Weight The mass (in grams) of 1 mole if a substance based on its chemical formula.
Percent Composition The % of a compound that is one element vs another
Empirical Formula Provides info about the ration #s of atoms in the compound. Steps: Percent to mass, mass to mole, divide by small, multiply 'til whole
Meaning of Coefficient Coefficients are the mole relationship for various reactants and products of a reaction. (Molar Ratio)
Mass to Mass Mass A - Mole A Mole A - Mole B Mole B - Mass B
Hydrates/Hydrous Molecule attached to water (H2O)
Anhydrous No water molecules (H2O)
Limiting Reactant The reactant that runs out first and stops the reaction
Excess Reactant The leftover reactant(s)
Theoretical Yield 100%; often called the "researched" yield
Actual Yield >100%; often called the "experimental" yield
Percent Yield Actual Yield/ Theoretical Yield x 100

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
