Catalyst(effect on activation energy needed)
|
Catalyst-speeds up a chemical reaction
It effects activation energy b/c it adds more power to the activation energy |
|
Endothermic Reactions
|
Endothermic Reactions absorb heat energy
|
|
Exothermic Reactions
|
Exothermic Reactions release heat energy
|
|
Chemical Reaction
|
A process that produces a chemical change
|
|
Activation Energy
|
The minimum amount of energy needed to start any chemical reaction
|
|
Reactants
|
Substances that exist before the reaction begins
|
|
Products
|
The substances that form as a result of the reaction
|
|
Enzymes(2 ways your body uses them)
|
Enzymes-large protien molecules that speed up reactions needed for your cells to work properly
They help your body to convert food to fuel |
|
Inhibitor
|
An inhibitor is a substance that slows down the rate of a reaction
|
|
4 indicators of a chemical reaction
|
Sight, smell,sound,touch,taste
(a chemical reaction could be milk going sour or paper burning) |
|
Count atoms in a chemical equation
Decide if chemical equation is balanced or unbalanced |
Ag+H2 S--------->Ag2 S+H
Ag-1 H- 2 S-1 Ag- 2 H- 1 S-1 (unbalanced) |
|
How does temp., concentration, surface area, change the rate of a chemical reaction?
|
Temp-Lowering it slows down the rate Raising it speeds up a reaction
Concentration-Molecules collide @ higher concentrations and slow down @ a lower concentration Surface Area-The larger the particles the more likely they won't react, the smaller the more likely they will react. |
