Question
Answer
compound   pure substance, combinations of elements, the same throughout, broken down to the smallest molecule  
🗑
element   purest substance that cannot be broke down any further, the smallest amount, atoms  
🗑
pure substance   compound or element, one single substance  
🗑
law of constant proportions   no matter the amount, the ratio will stay the same, berthollet and proust  
🗑
atom   smallest amount that maintains its properties  
🗑
molecule   smallest amount of compound that maintains its properties  
🗑
coefficients   indicates how many molecules there are, can change to balance equation, ex. 2HCl  
🗑
subscript   indicates how many molecules there are, cannot change to balance equation, ex. H(little)2  
🗑
( )   effects whatever is inside, ex. (OH)v2  
🗑
yields   goes to, --->  
🗑
synthesis   when substances come together to make one  
🗑
decomposition   when a substance splits apart to make many  
🗑
single replacement   when one element replaces another in a compound , ex. AB + C ---> AC + B  
🗑
double displacement   when the elements in two compound switch pairings, matching the insides together and the outsides together ex. AB + CD ---> AD + CB  
🗑
diatomic molecules   Clv2,Iv2,Fv2,Brv2,Ov2,Hv2,Nv2 v=subscript  
🗑
combustion   when a fuel reacts with oxygen and yields to water and carbon dioxide, ex. CHv4 + Ov2 ---> Hv2O + COv2  
🗑

🗑
anion   negatively charged ion  
🗑
electrodes   give electrons, take electrons  
🗑
cathode   negative electrode, electron supplier, attracts cations  
🗑
anode   positively charged electrode, electron taker, attracts anions  
🗑

🗑
base   ph of 7-14, includes OH-  
🗑
acid   ph of 1-7, has only H  
🗑
photosynthesis   opposite of combustion  
🗑
