Product

Back (Answer)

Substance that forms during a chemical reaction

Front (Question)

Reactant

Back (Answer)

Substance or molecule that participates in a chemical reactions - the substance reacting to something else

Front (Question)

Chemical energy

Back (Answer)

Energy released when a chemical compound reacts to produce new compounds

Front (Question)

exothermic reaction

Back (Answer)

Chemical reaction where heat is released to surroundings - combustion reactions

Front (Question)

endothermic reaction

Back (Answer)

Chemical reaction that requires heat - reactions that absorb energy

Front (Question)

synthesis reaction

Back (Answer)

Polymerization - reaction in which two or more substances combine to form new a compound

Front (Question)

decomposition reaction

Back (Answer)

Examples: digestion Reaction in which a single compound breaks down to form two or more simpler substances

Front (Question)

electrolysis

Back (Answer)

Process in which an electric current is used to produce a chemical reaction - decomposition of water

Front (Question)

combustion reaction

Back (Answer)

Oxidation reaction of an organic compound in which heat is released - oxygen is a reactant is every combustion reaction

#10

Front (Question)

single-displacement reaction

Back (Answer)

Reaction in which one element or radical takes the p,ace of another radical in a compound

#11

Front (Question)

double-displacement reaction

Back (Answer)

Reaction in which a gas, solid precipitate, or a molecule compound forms from the apparent exchange of atoms or ions between two compounds

#12

Front (Question)

oxidation-reduction reaction

Back (Answer)

Any chemical change in which one species is oxidized and another species is reduced - also called redox reaction

#13

Front (Question)

radical

Back (Answer)

Organic group that has one or more electrons available for bonding

#14

Front (Question)

reduced

Back (Answer)

Substances that accept electrons

#15

Front (Question)

oxidized

Back (Answer)

Substances that give up electrons

#16

Front (Question)

chemical equation

Back (Answer)

Representation of a chemical reaction that uses symbols to show he relationship between reactants and the products

#17

Front (Question)

mole ratio

Back (Answer)

Relative number of moles of the substances required to produce a given amount of product in a chemical reaction

#18

Front (Question)

coefficient

Back (Answer)

In italics - an equation can be balanced by putting these in front of chemical formulas

#19

Front (Question)

Law of Conservation of Mass

Back (Answer)

Mass is not created nor destroyed.

#20

Front (Question)

Law of Definite Proportions

Back (Answer)

A compound will always contain the same elements in the same proportions, regardless of how the compound is made or how much of the compound is formed.

#21

Front (Question)

catalyst

Back (Answer)

Substance that changes the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed or changed significantly

#22

Front (Question)

enzyme

Back (Answer)

Proteins that are catalysts for chemical reactions in living things

#23

Front (Question)

substrate

Back (Answer)

A part, substance, or element that lies beneath and supports another part, substance, or element - the reactant in reactions catalyzed by enzymes

#24

Front (Question)

chemical equilibrium

Back (Answer)

A balanced state
