Moment 5 Flashcards
reactants
on left side
products
on right side
coefficient
number before the element, indicates the ratio of reactants to products in terms of moles
unbalanced equation
one that does not follow the law of conservation of mass
octet rule
gain or lose electrons until outer level is 8. change can be in composition or configuration.
the substance undergoing a change
reactant
reagent (agent)
partner in reaction less transformed than the reactant (such as catalyst)
the final result of reaction
product
reaction conditions (PCCTS - strayed)
temp, pressure, concentration, occurring in a solution, presence or absence of catalyst.
combination reactions (just combine to 1)
two or more reactants combine to form a single product, ie A + B – . also called synthesis or addition reactions
decomposition reactions (just decomp)
chemical reactions where single compound breaks down into component parts or simpler compounds, ie A — B + C
most decomposition reactions are…
endothermic, heat needs to be added
thermal decomposition caused by…
heat
electrolytic decomposition due to…
electricity
types of separation processes (separation is FCCD)
filtration, crystallization, distillation and chromatography
separation…(into like piles)
sorts compounds after decomposition into like substances
single substitution, displacement, or replacement reactions occur when…
one reactant is displaced by another to form the final product
single substitution can be…
cationic or anionic
ions or bonds are exchanged by 2 compounds to form different compounds - examples (missed compounds - substitute the exchange - MISDD)
double displacement, double replacement, substitution, metathesis, ion exchange
double replacement reaction (just replacing, not changing)
chemical reactants exchange ions but the oxidation stays the same
indicator of double displacement (double tomogenesis)
formation of solid precipitate
acid/base reactions - which one gives, and which one accepts?
acid donates a proton, while base accepts proton
acid and base reactions form a…(think chem) and the base becomes____
salt and water. when the proton is donated, the base becomes water and the remaining ion forms a salt.
of atoms does not change during a…(atom at the Met)
metathesis reaction. even exchange.
