Chemical Reactions
Unit 7
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Chemical Reaction | -atoms of one or more substances are rearranged to form different substances (bonds are broken & new bonds are made) -a chemical change occurs |
| Chemical Equation | reactants --> products -conditions for the reaction are written above the yield--energy changes (heat) -electricity -catalysts |
| Coefficients | whole #'s -- used to balance an equation -lowest ratio |
| Signs of Chemical Reactions | some are hard to detect -Color Change -Temp. Change >endothermic >exothermic -Gas Produced-seen as bubbles >test wood splint -Precipitate Forms >insoluble solid >appears cloudy -Odor |
| Synthesis | A + Y -> AY |
| Combustion Reactions | -release light & heat -combine with oxygen |
| Decomposition | AX -> A + X |
| Single Replacement | A + BX -> AX + B -use activity chart! |
| Double Replacement | AX + BY -> AY + BX |
