Resumo de Recurso

Questão Responda
neutralisation reaction base + acid = neutral liquid
displacement reaction when a stronger element displaces a weaker one
combustion reaction burning something in oxygen
metal + acid reaction always results in hydrogen and a salt
thermal decomposition reaction breaking something down with heat
precipitation reaction when a solid forms in a liquid
reactants the substances before they react to each other
products the substances produced after the reaction
balanced equation an equation with an equal amount of substances on both sides of the arrow
state symbols used to represent states of matter s = solid l = liquid g = gas aq = aqueous
element made up of atoms of one type (hydrogen)
compound contains two or more different atoms chemically bonded together (carob dioxide)
mixture contains 2 or more substances mixed together (sand and water)
atom smallest particle that can exist on its own
molecule a group of two or more atoms chemically bonded together
isotopes different atomic forms of the same element which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
relative atomic mass the average mass of all atoms of that element
relative abundance the proportion of one isotope in an element
endothermic energy is transferred from surroundings to reactants. reactants become colder
exothermic energy transferred from reactants to surroundings. reactants become hotter
isomer isomers have the same molecular formula but different spatial arrangement
alkene unsaturated hydrocarbons with one double bond
activation energy the minimum energy needed to start a reaction
catalyst provide an alternate reaction pathway, speeds up the rate of reaction without changing the contents or itself, lowers the activation energy
hydrocarbon compound made up of only hydrogen and carbon
homologous series a group of organic chemical compounds that have similar structure, listed in order of size
viscosity quantity that describes a fluids resistance to flow
volatile evaporates rapidly
complete combustion when a fuel burns in air and makes carbon dioxide and water
incomplete combustion when oxygen supply is poor so methane and soot (carbon) is produced
cracking the breaking up of long chain hydrocarbons into smaller, more useful compounds
crude oil a mixture of hydrocarbons made up of living things and burned to give energy (fossil fuel)
fractional distillation the process of separating constituents of a liquid mixture by heating it and condensing separately the components according to their boiling points
independent variable the part of a reaction that you change
dependent variable the part of a reaction that you measure
control variable the things you keep the same to make it a fair test
