precipitatiion

28
Q

in a _____ : Fuel + oxygen becomes carbon dioxide + water

30
Q

def. A diagram showing how potential energy changes from reactants to products, allowing you to better understand the characteristics of a given reaction

A

Potential energy diagram

31
Q

What does enthalpy describe?

A

the total internal energy in a system

32
Q

Can you measure the total energy of a system?

A

No

33
Q

def. a measure of how much energy a chemical process converts between heat and potential energy

A

change in enthalpy (ΔH)

34
Q

What’s the formula for change in enthalpy?

A

ΔH = Hproducts–Hreact

35
Q

A negative change in enthalpy signifies what kind of system?

A

Exothermic

36
Q

A positive change in enthalpy signifies what kind of system?

A

endothermic

37
Q

def. Forces that exist between individual molecules, either attracting them together, or repelling them apart

A

Intermolecular forces

38
Q

Changes in __________ forces produce changes in physical form, like changes of state and dissolution, as particles move further apart or closer together

A

intermolecular

39
Q

def. Attractive forces that exist within a molecule or compound, holding the atoms together (Really just a broader, more general term for chemical bond)

A

Intramolecular forces

40
Q

Changes in ________ forces produce chemical changes, as existing bonds break and new bonds form, resulting in new and different products

A

Intramolecular

41
Q

def. One way to measure the strength of a chemical bond, representing the amount of energy released when a bond forms and the amount needed to break it (The higher the bond energy, the stronger the bond)

A

Bond Energy

42
Q

Once started ________ reactions are self-sustaining , as some of the energy they release provides the energy required for more reactant to reach the activation energy?

A

Exothermic

43
Q

___________ reactions never have enough energy to reach activation energy on their own, and therefore require a constant input of energy to both start them and maintain their progress

A

Endothermic

44
Q

def. Any reaction that starts automatically upon mixing the reactants, without the need to add any additional energy to reach activation energy

A

Spontaneous reaction

45
Q

What two things influence reaction rate?

A

Catalysts and temperature

46
Q

Both catalysts and an increase in temperature make it _______ for the reactants to reach activation energy, making the reaction easier and the rate ________

A

easier, faster

47
