What is a Product?
A product is the substance that you get when you combine two or more reactants.
What is a Reactant?
A reactant is a substance or molecule that is a oart if a chemical reaction.
What is Chemical Energy?
Chemical energy is the energy that is released when a compound reacts and forms completely new compounds.
What is an Exothermic Reaction?
An exothermic reaction is when heat energy is released during the reaction, such as if you combine isooctane and oxygen, energy is released to break the bonds.
What is an Endothermic Reaction?
An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is required to make the reaction. When you put hydrated barium hydroxide and ammonium nitrate together, the energy required is so high that the air around it would condense and freeze.
What is a Synthesis Reaction?
A synthesis reaction is when two or more substances combine to make a completely new compound.
What is a Decompisition Reaction?
A reaction where a single compound breaks down to make two or more substances.
What is Electrolysis?
The process where an electrical current is used to produce a chemical reaction, such as decompisition of water.
What is a Combustion Reaction?
The oxidation reaction of an organic compound, in which heat is released.
What is a Single-Displacement Reaction?
A reaction which one element takes the place of another element in a compound.
What is a Double-Displacement Reaction?
A reaction which a gas, solid precipitate, or molcular compound forms from an apparant exchange of atoms or ions between two compounds.
What is an Oxidation-Reduction Reaction?
Any chemical change in which one species loses electrons and the other gains electrons, which is also known as redox reaction.
What is a Radical?
Organic group that has one or more elctrons that are able to bond.
What is a Chemical Equation?
A chemical equation is a representation of a chemical reaction that uses symbols to show the relationship between the reactants and the products.
What is a Mole Ratio?
The relative number of moles of the substances required to produce a given amount of product in a chemical reaction.
What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?
The total mass of the reactants is always the same as the total mass of the products.
What is a Coefficient?
A coefficient is the number before a molecule or element that says how many of those specific molecules there are.
What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?
The law of conservation of mass states that mass can not be created or destroyed, only change form
What is the Law of Definite Proportions?
The law states that a compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions, regardless of how the compound is made or how much of the compound is formed
What is a Catalyst?
A substance that changes the rate of which a chemical reaction takes place.
What is an Enzyme?
Enzymes are proteins that speeds up metabolic reactions in plants and animals and they are never completely used up.
What is a Substrate?
A part, substance, or element that lies beneath and supports another part.
What is Chemical Equilibrium?
A state of balance in which the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.
