|
Antonie Lavosier
|
established the law of conservation of math
|
|
atoms detail
|
atoms can be rearragned but they never loose their form
|
|
iron and air
|
when iron is exposed to air it corrodes and forms rust
|
|
alumminum and oxygen
|
when they interact alumminum oxide
|
|
copper detail
|
when it is exposed to air it corrodes and turns blue/green. this coating is called patina.
|
|
synthesis reaction example
|
hydrogen burns into oxygen to form water
|
|
decomposition detail
|
most requires heat, light, or electricity
|
|
displacement example
|
copper is placed in solution of silver nitrate. copper replaces silver nad the silver in turn forms on wire
|
|
double displacement example
|
barium nitrate's reaction wiht postassium sulfate.
|
|
dynamite expostion
|
rapid chemical reaction
|
|
energy in reactions
|
all chemical reactions release or absorb energy.
can be in heat, sound, light, or electricity the source of the energy is chemical bonds |
|
exergonic reactions example
|
glo stick
|
|
exothermic reaction example
|
burning wooden
|
|
endergoic reaction example
|
used to coat metal onto a surface like copper on a coin
|
|
endothermic reaction example
|
Epsom salt in water; salt absorbs heat making the water colder
|
|
cataylast details
|
when added to reactions the product forms more rapidly
used to speed the productions of plastics and fibers |
|
inhibitors
|
tie up reactants to keep from original reaction
brushing or spraying something with lemon juice stops catalysts from reaction |
