Chemical Reactions

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Activation Energy   What is needed to start a chemical reaction.  
🗑
Arrow(-->)   You read the arrow as "yields" in a chemical equation formula.  
🗑
Characteristics of a Chemical Reaction   Changes in energy or change in properties. Examples bubbles burning etc.  
🗑
Chemical Change   Alter the chemical properties of matter; new substances with new properties are formed.  
🗑
Chemical Equations   A shorter and easier way to show chemical reactions by using symbols instead words.  
🗑
Coefficient   A number placed in front of a chemical formula in an equation. Tells you how many atoms or molecules of each reactant must equal the total mass of the products.  
🗑
Conservation of mass   The amount of matter involved in a chemical reaction does not change. The total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products.  
🗑
Controlling rates of reaction   concentration, temperatures, surface area, catalysts, enzymes inhibitors  
🗑
Decomposition Reaction   A compound breaks down into simpler substances.  
🗑
Endothermic Reactions   An observable change in energy that shows a chemical reaction took place; A reaction that takes heat from the solution, absorbs energy, makes it feel cooler.  
🗑
Exothermic Reaction   An observable change in energy that shows a chemical reaction took place; that releases heat ; gives off energy, makes it feel warmer most chemical.  
🗑
Physical Changes   Alter only the physical properties of matter; no new substance are formed. Can be a change in size shape or color; change in phase.  
🗑
Precipitate   A solid that forms from solutions during a chemical reaction; observable change that shows a chemical reaction took place.  
🗑
Products   The material you have after a chemical reaction; written on the right side of the formula.  
🗑
Reactants   The materials you have at the beginning of a chemical reaction; written on the left side of the formula.  
🗑
Replacement Reaction:   One part of a compound is displaced by an element or compound from another substance (also called displacement reaction)  
🗑
States of Matter (pp. 46-50):   solid, liquid, and gas  
🗑
Subscripts: show the number of atoms of an element in a molecule or the ratio of elements in a compound.   Show the number of atoms of an element in a molecule or the ratio of elements in a compound.  
🗑
Synthesis Reaction:   Two substances combine to form a new compound (also called composition reaction)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
