What is a chemical reaction?
The formation of new chemical bonds or the breaking of old chemical bonds between atoms.
What is potential energy?
Energy stored by matter due to its position.
What is kinetic energy?
The energy associated with matter in motion.
What is chemical energy?
A form of potential energy that is stored in the bonds of compounds and molecules.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
Energy can be neither created nor destroyed.
It may be converted from one form to another.
What is an exergonic reaction?
Release of more energy than is absorbed.
What is an endergonic reaction?
Absorbing of more energy than is released.
What is activation energy?
The minimum amount of energy required for a chemical reaction to occur.
Is this reaction exergonic or endergonic?
This reaction is exergonic because the reactants have more potential energy than the products.
What two factors influence the chance that a collision will occur and cause a chemical reaction?
Concentration: The greater the concentration, the greater the chance a reaction will occur
Temperature: The higher the temperature, the more likely a reaction will occur
