Question
Answer
endothermic   a chemical reaction or process in which a greater amount of energy is required to break the existing bonds in the reactants than is released when new bonds form in the product of molecules  
🗑
exothermic   a chemical reaction or process in which more energy is released than required to break bonds in the intial reactants  
🗑
law of conservation of energy   states than in any chemical reaction or physical process energy may change from one form to another but its neither destroyed or created  
🗑
heat   a form of energy that flows from a warmer object to a coller object  
🗑
specific heat   the amount of heat required to raise the remperature of one gram of a given substance by one degree of celsius  
🗑
enthalpy   the heat content of a system at a constant pressure  
🗑
more heat of fusion   the amount of heat required to melt one mole of a solid substance  
🗑
more heat of vaporization   the amount of heat required to vaporize one mole of a liquid  
🗑
rate law   the mathematical relationship between the rate of a chemical reaction at a given temperature and the concentration of reactants  
🗑
collision theory   states that atoms,ions,molecules must collide in order to react  
🗑
activation energy   the minimum amount of energy required by reaction particles in order to form the activate complex and lead a reaction  
🗑
catalyst   a susbstance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering activation energies but not itself consumed in the reaction  
🗑
chemical equilibrim   the state in which forward and reverse reactions balance each other because they occur at equal weights  
🗑
le chatlier principle   states that if stress is applied to a system at equilibium, the system shifts in the direction that relieves the stress  
🗑
entropy   a measure of anumber of possiple ways that the energy of a system can be distributed, related to the freedom of the systems particles to move and the number of ways they can be aranged  
🗑


   

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.
