Chemical Reactions test study guide

QuestionAnswer
Reactants are on what side of the chemical equation? the left
Products are on what side of the chemical equation? The right
-> means (hint: this indicates the result of a reaction) yields
-> on top of <- means a reversible reaction
(s) means a solid
down arrow means (also an alternative to s but...) a precipitate
(l) means a A liquid
(aq) means an aqueous solution
(g) means a gas
up arrow means a gaseous product
What can you put above the yield arrow to show that a reactant is heated? a triangle or heat
What do you put to indicate the pressure at which a reaction is carried out (other than normal 1 atm pressure)? (hint: it also goes above the yield arrow) __atm
What do you put to indicate that the pressure at which a reaction is carried out exceeds normal atmospheric pressure? (hint: it goes above the yield arrow) pressure
What do you put above the yield arrow to show a specific temperature used? __degrees celcius
What do you put above the yield arrow to show a catalyst? its chemical formula
what are the 7 diatomic elements (meaning that they are written as 2 (or a diatomic molecule) in a CHEMICAL REACTION BY ITSELF)? hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, bromine, fluorine, iodine, chlorine
Coefficients go where? in front of chemical formulas
What do coefficients do? balance the chemical equation
What is the general form of a synthesis (also called composition or combination) reaction? A+B --> AB
Synthesis reactions are the only ones in which one ___ is formed? product
element + element -> binary Ionic compound
metal oxide + water -> metal hydroxide
nonmetal oxide + water -> oxyacid
metal oxide + nonmetal oxide -> a salt (cation + anion)
What is the general form of a decomposition reaction? AB-->A+B
Decomposition reactions are the only ones in which one ___ is used? reactant
binary ionic compounds -> elements
metal hydroxide -> metal oxide + water
metal carbonate -> metal oxide + carbon dioxide
metal chlorate -> metal chloride + oxygen

What is the general form of a single replacement reaction? A + BX-->B + AX
An active metal replaces _ in a compound another metal
An active metal will replace _ in an acid H (hydrogen)
An active halogen will replace _ in a compound another halogen
an active metal + water -> metal hydroxide +hydrogen
You have to check to see if a single replacement reaction can work with what? the activity series
An element on the activity series can replace any element below it but not... above it
What do you write if a single replacement reaction doesn't take place? (hint: it goes on the product side) no reaction
What is the general form of a double replacement reaction? AX + BY--> AY + BX
What types of formations can a double replacement reaction make? precipitate, water, and gas
What is a precipitate? an insoluble compound
how is water made from a double replacement reaction? neutralization (acid + base)
What do you use to see if a double replacement reaction has a precipitate? solubility rules
How do you identify a combustion reaction? (x,y, and z are subscripts) by a hydrocarbon (CxHy) or a carbohydrate (CxHyOz)
What do the identifiers of a combustion reaction burn in the presence of? oxygen
What are ALWAYS the products of a combustion reaction? CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water)

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.
