Q

combustion reaction

A

combustion reactions happen when something organic reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide gas and water.

17
Q

single displacement reactions

A

single displacement reactions happen when a pure element replaces another element in chemical compound

18
Q

double displacement reaction (precipitation reaction)

A

double displacement reactions happen when the cations of two ionic compounds switch places and forms a solid

19
Q

acid base reaction

A

also known as neutralization reactions, are just double displacement reactions in which water is formed.

20
Q

alpha particle/decay

A

Alpha particles, also called alpha ray or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together. they have a positive charge. alpha particles can be stopped by a sheet of paper

21
Q

beta particle/decay

A

A beta particle, also called beta ray or beta radiation, is a high-energy, high-speed electron emitted by the radioactive decay of an atomic nucleus during the process of beta decay. Aluminum can stop a beta particle.

22
Q

gamma ray/decay

A

gamma rays have no mass and no charge. they are made up of electromagnetic waves. lead can stop gamma rays

23
Q

isotope

A

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number. All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.
