Temperature
Average kinetic energy
Amount of energy required to steal the outermost electron
Ionization energy
Particles of an ideal gas are separated by great distances, compared to their size
Kinetic molecular theory
What happens when a bond is broken
Energy is absorbed
What happens when a bond is formed
Energy is released
What does a catalyst do
Creates an alternate pathway, increasing the rate of the reaction by lowering the activation energy
Where does oxidation and reduction occur?
Oxidation-anode
Reduction-cathode
Same molecular formula but different structural formula
Isomer
Amount of attraction for electrons in a chemical bond
Electronegativity F or closest to fluorine
Difference between potential energy of the products and potential energy of the reactants
Heat of the reaction
Atoms that bond with each other to form chains, rings, or networks
Carbon atoms
Electrical energy to chemical energy
Electrolytic cell
MaVa=MbVb
