7F:Chemical Reaction
Revision Cards on Chemical Reaction
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How can you tell when a chemical reaction has taken place? | There will be a change in colour, an energy change or a gas will be given off |
| What is the definition of decompose? | When one substance splits up into two or more products |
| What percentage of air contains oxygen? | 20% |
| What is the word equation for iron added to oxygen? | Iron + Oxygen -> Iron Oxide |
| What is acid rain? | Acid rain is rain containing sulphuric and nitric acid |
| What is the reaction when magnesium is heated? | Parts of the magnesium forms into a gas |
| How can you test for pure oxygen? | Place a burning splint into a jar or pure oxygen. Take the splint out at blow it, leaving it to glow. Oxygen will make it burst into flames again! |
| What happens when you cool down carbon dioxide to approximately -80°? | The carbon-dioxide will turn into dry ice |
| Name three gases that can put a flame out. | Carbon dioxide, helium and nitrogen |
| How are oxides formed? | Metals that are used in fireworks will burn in oxygen with a particular colour. This forms oxides! |
| How can we be sure that more energy is given off a reaction? | Heat, light and sometimes sound are given off |
| What extinguisher type is used for putting out a fire on petrol? | A foam (AFFF) extinguisher |
| What effects does a fire extinguisher have on fires? | Fire extinguishers cool the fire down or stop oxygen getting to the fuel |

| What is the definition of combustion? | The scientific word for burning |
| What is wax made up of? | Carbon joined together with hydrogen |
| Complete the word equation: Methane + Oxygen -> | Methane + Oxygen -> Carbon Dioxide + Water |
| Why is energy not written in a word equation? | It is not a chemical substance meaning it is not a product |
| What is Nitroglycerine? | Nitroglycerine is a very dangerous explosive. If you drop a bottle of Nitroglycerine, it will have enough energy to start an explosive reaction! |
| Carbon Monoxide is a very poisonous gas. Name two features of carbon monoxide. | Carbon Monoxide doesn't smell and it is tasteless |
| How is carbon dioxide produced? | When carbon is joined with oxygen in the air |
| What is the word equation for combustion? | Fuel + Oxygen -> Carbon Dioxide + Water |
| What is the name we give chemicals that are only made up of carbon and hydrogen? | Hydrocarbon |
| What is a dry powder extinguisher used for? | Putting out fires involving metals or electrical fires |
| Explain how ice is a reversible change. | Ice ca be melted into a liquid but when you place it in the freezer, it can turn back into a solid |
| How can hydrogen and oxygen be split? | Electrical energy can split them apart |
| What is rusting an example of? | Corrosion |
