25
Decomposition
A reactant molecule breaks to form a simpler product
26
Exchange
Parts of different reactants recombine to form a new product
27
Reversible
When the products that form can reverse back to become reactants again, then become products again
28
Catalyst
A molecule that can change rate of the reaction without being consumed
29
Electrolyte
When a substance decomposes and releases ions in water since it can conduct an electric current
30
Electrolytes that release H+ ions are?
Acids pH from 0-6
31
Electrolytes that combine with H+ ions are?
Bases pH from 8-14
32
Inorganic chemicals (4)
