1
New cards
reactant
the ________- the substance that undergo a chemical change
2
New cards
product
the _______- the new substance that was formed
3
New cards
chemical equation
a chemical __________ is a representation of a chemical reaction in which the reactants and products are expressed as formulas
4
New cards
coefficients
the big numbers in front of the formula
5
New cards
reaction
when a substance undergoes a chemical change, a chemical _______ is occurring
6
New cards
mass
during a chemical reaction, the ______ of the reactants always equals the mass of the product
7
New cards
conservation of mass
the law of _______ __of__ ______ states that mass is neither created nor destroyed in a reaction
8
New cards
atoms
in order to demonstrate this, the number of _______ of each element on the left side of the arrow must equal the number of atoms on the right side
9
New cards
coefficient
you can balance the number of atoms by changing the _______ only
10
New cards
subscript and formula
you cannot change the _____ __and__ _______
11
New cards
decomposition reaction
a ________ _______ is when on compound breaks down into 2 or more products
12
New cards
synthesis reaction
a _____ _______ is a reaction in which 2 or more reactants form one product
13
New cards
double-replacement reaction
a ________-________ _____ is one in which 2 different compounds exchange ions and form 2 new compounds
14
New cards
combustion reaction
a ______ ________ is one in which a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen, often producing heat and light
15
New cards
number and type
just as we classify matter into different types, we can also classify reactions by different types based on the _____ __and__ _________ of reactants and products
16
New cards
one
a synthesis reaction is a reaction in which 2 or more reactants form ______ product
17
New cards
synthesis
decomposition is the opposite of ________
18
New cards
single
a _______- replacement reaction is a reaction in which a single element takes the place of another element in a compound
19
New cards
hydrocarbon and O2
in a combustion, the reacts are always a _____ __and__ ____
20
New cards
chemical energy
_______ _______ is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of a substance
21
New cards
exothermic reaction
if energy releases, this is an _____ ______
22
New cards
endothermic reaction
if energy is absorbed by the surroundings is an ___ ______
23
New cards
describe the energy changes that take place during a chemical reaction
during a chemical reaction, energy is either released or absorbed
24
New cards
matter cannot be created or destroyed
explain how energy is conserved during a chemical reaction
25
New cards
energy
the heat that is produced by a gas grill is a form of _______ released by the combination between propane and oxygen-- which produces carbon dioxide, water (in vapor form), and heat
26
New cards
bonds & formation
chemical reactions involve the breaking of chemical ____ __in the reactants and the__ ______ of new and different chemical bonds in the product
27
New cards
diagram
a reaction energy ______ shows the energy change between the reactants and products
28
New cards
endothermic
if the reactants energy is lower than the products, then that means the reaction absorbed energy, so this is an _____ reaction
29
New cards
released
if the reactants energy is higher than the products, then that means the reaction _______ energy, so this is an exothermic reaction
30
New cards
conservation
this principle is the law of _______ of energy
31
New cards
reaction rate
a ______ _____ is the rate at which reactions change into products over time
32
New cards
describe the factors affecting chemical reaction rates
temperature, surface area, concentration, stirring
33
New cards
collide
the reaction rate depends on how often and frequently the particles ________
34
New cards
increase
an increase in temperature will _______ the reaction rate
35
New cards
decrease
a decrease in temperature will ________ the reaction rate
36
New cards
collision
increasing the temperature increases the ________ frequency
37
New cards
higher
the smaller the particle size of a given mass, the _______ it’s surface area, so the more likely it is to react
38
New cards
increase
an increase in surface area increase the exposure of reactants to one another--which ______ the reaction rate
39
New cards
concentration
changing the _______ of the reactants changes the reaction rate
40
New cards
volume
you can change the concentration by changing the ______
41
New cards
amount
you can change the concentration by changing the ______ of the reactant
