Synthesis |
In a synthesis two or more reactants combine to produce a single product A+B=AB |
|
Decomposition |
The breaking down if a compound into smaller compoundsor separate elements (reverse synthesis reaction) Compound=element +element |
|
Single replacement |
A reactive element and a compound react to produce another element another compound Element+compound=element+compound |
|
Double replacement |
Reaction usually involves 2 ionic solutions that react to produce two other ionic compounds Ionic solution + ionic solution=ionic solution + ionic acid |
|
Neutralization |
Acid+Base=salt+ water |
|
Combustion |
Rapid reaction of compound or element with oxygen to form an oxide and to produce heat Hydrocarbon+oxygen=carbon dioxide+water |
|
Rate of reaction |
How quickly or slowly reactants turn into products |
|
Temperature |
Increasing temo causes particles of reactants to move more quickly so they collide with each other more frequently |
|
Concentration |
Refers to how much solute is dissolved in a solution |
|
Surface area |
Measure of how much area of an object is exposed |
|
Catalyst |
A substance that speeds up rate of chemical reaction without being used up in reaction itself |
|
Catalytic converters |
A stainless steel device used in cars that has several reactions occur |
