Q

What is thermo decomposition?

A

It is the breakdown of the substance using heat.

17
Q

What is meant by conservation of mass?

A

The total mass of the reactants will be the same as the total mass of the products. This is because mass has not been created or destroyed. In a chemical reaction atoms are rearranged to produce new substances

Q

What is an endothermic reaction?

A

Reaction that take in heat.

Ice pack

20
Q

What’s an exothermic reaction?

A

Reactions that give out heat. The heat EXits.

21
Q

What the word equation for aerobic respiration?

A

Glucose+oxygen———>carbon dioxide +water (+energy)

22
Q

What is the equation for oxygen debt?

A

Latic acid+oxygen ——-> carbon dioxide + water

23
Q

Word equation for photosynthesis is….

A

Carbon dioxide + water —-> glucose + oxygen

24
Q

Fermentation equation is…

A

Ethanol+carbon dioxide—-> glucose

25
What do guard cells do ?
Open and close stomata
26
What do stomata do ?
Control carbon dioxide intake
27
How do you calculate work done ?
W= f x d
28
Temperature is
The measure of the internal energy of a substance
29
If something feels hot heat is being transferred from the object to your hand. True or false

30
Where does photosynthesis take place?
In the chloroplasts
31
What do the chloroplasts contain ?
Chlorophyll
32
What does chlorophyll do?
Traps light for photosynthesis.
33
Ina leaf: what does the palisade layer do?
It is where most the chloroplasts are meaning photosynthesis occurs there.
34
What does the spongy layer do?
Contains air allowing carbon dioxide to diffuse through the leaf.
35
Why is the top of the leaf waxy?
To protect the leaf from extreme weather.
36
Why are most leaves green?
As they contain chlorophyll
