Chemical Energy
|
The energy stored in the chemical bonds within a substance
|
|
Chemical Equation
|
A representation of the chemical reaction in which the reactants and the products are expressed as formulas
|
|
Combustion Reaction
|
A chemical reaction in which a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen, often producing heat and light
|
|
Decomposition Reaction
|
A chemical reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances
|
|
Double Replacement Reaction
|
A chemical reaction in which two compounds exchange positive ions and form two new ions
|
|
Endothermic Reaction
|
A chemical reaction that absorbs more energy than it releases
|
|
Exothermic Reaction
|
A chemical reaction that releases more energy than it absorbs
|
|
Molar Mass
|
The mass of one mole of a substance
|
|
Mole
|
An amount of a substance that contains approximately 6.02 x 1023 particles of the substance
|
|
Oxidation Reduction Reactions
|
A chemical reaction in which electrons are transferred from one reactant to another
|
|
Products
|
A new substance formed as a result of a chemical reaction
|
|
Reactants
|
A substance that undergoes a change in a chemical reaction
|
|
Single Replacement Reaction
|
a chemical reaction in which one element takes the place of another element in the compound
|
|
Synthesis Reaction
|
A chemical reaction in which two or more substances reacts to form a single substance
|
|
Coefficients
|
A number that appears before a formula in a chemical equation to show the relative proportions of each reactant and product
|
|
Law of Conservation of Mass
|
The law of conservation of mass states that mass is neither created nor destroyed
|
|
Types of Chemical Reaction
|
Synthesis
Decomposition Single Replacement Double Replacement |
|
What happens to the chemical bonds when a chemical reaction occurs
|
Chemical reactions involve the breaking of chemical bonds in the reactants and the formation of bonds in the product.
|
|
How to Identify an Endothermic or Exothermic Reaction
|
Exothermic: releases heat, kJ in the products
Endothermic: absorbs heat, kJ in the reactant |
|
What factors increase and decrease reaction rates
|
Temperature: Particles move faster, collide more
Surface Area: increases exposure, more collisions Movement: increase exposure; collisions Concentration: more reacting particles Catalysts: lowers energy barrier required to break when colliding |
