A

Products are C+D

Reactants are A+B

18
Q

The reaction that requires energy to occur is known as an ________ reaction and feels _______ to the touch.

A

Endothermic

Feels COLD to the touch

19
Q

A reaction that PRODUCES energy when it occurs is known as an ___________ reaction and feels __________ to the touch.

A

Exothermic

feels HOT to the touch

20
Q

What is the basic form of a combustion reaction?

A

C_H_

C_H_ + O2 -> CO2 + H2O

21
Q

What type of combustion occurs when there is a plentiful supply of O2?

A

Complete combustion

22
Q

What type of combustions occurs when there is a limited supply of O2?

A

Incomplete combustion

23
Q

What is the basic word equation for a neutralization reaction?

A

Acid +base -> water + salt

24
Q

What is a multivalent element?

A

An element with more than one possible charge,

They are most likely found in transition metals family located in the middle of the table.

25
What is WHMIS
Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System | The purpose is to enable employees and employers to know about the hazards of working with chemicals.
26
What are 3 substances we can use to determine whether a solution is acidic or basic?
pH paper, Litmus paper, synthetic indicators
27
What is meant by the rate of a chemical reaction?
The speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds/occurs.
28
What are the 4 factors that influence the rate of a reaction?
Temperature, particle size, concentration, and catalyst
29
How will changing each factor affect the rate of reaction?
Higher temperature-faster reaction rate Higher concentration- faster reaction rate Smaller particle size- faster reaction rate Catalyst- faster reaction rate
30
What is a catalyst?
A catalyst is a substance which speeds up a reaction, it is chemically unchanged at the end of a reaction Ex KMNO4
31
What is the basic premise of the conservation of mass?
The mass of the product you make in a chemical reaction is the same mass as in the reactants. Mass of the products=mass of reactants
32
What are 3 identifying factors that determine if a reaction resulted in a physical change?
* changes form but keeps the same chemical composition * changes the way substance looks * does not result in a new substance Melting point, colour, boiling point
33
Describe indicators of a physical change
Change in size, shape or location. | Change in state or concentration.
34
What are 5 indicators that a reaction resulted in a chemical change?
* energy taken in or given off in a form of heat or light * formation of gas bubbles * formation of a solid (precipitate) * change of colour •formation of a different odour
35
Describe the characteristics that determine if a chemical change will occur?
* reactivity * combustibility * flammability
36
What are the types of chemical reactions? (Know these!)
``` Single replacement Double displacement Acid base neutralization Combustion reaction Synthesis reaction Decomposition reaction ```
37
Naming ionic compounds
Cation keeps its name, anion drops ending and adds the suffix -ide If multivalent, use roman numerals The polyatomic ions remain the same Remember TO CRISS CROSS AND SIMPLIFY
38
Naming covalent compounds
``` Use prefixes Ex: Mono-1 Di-2 Tri-3 Tetra-4 Penta-5 Hexa-6 Hepta-7 Octa-8 ``` If the first atom in the compound contains only 1 atom, we do not use the prefix mono to indicate this Do not reduce.
39
Naming acids
Binary acid~ H with one other element ex. Hydro______acid Tertiary acid with ATE polyatomics~ Do not use the prefix hydro( only use ______ic acid Tertiary with ITE polyatomics~ do not use prefix hydro, use suffix ________ous acid
40
Naming bases
Ex. Cu(OH)3 Copper (III) hydroxide
