Evaporation
Melting
What are reactions that involve interactions between matter and heat?
Oxidation
Combustion
Thermal Decomposition
Is respiration an example of oxidation?
Yes, as you respire, oxygen reacts with glucose to produce Carbon dioxide, water and energy
What are the chemical reactions that involve matter and light?
Photography
Photosynthesis
What are chemical reactions that involve matter and electricity?
Electrosis
What are the processes called inelectrosis?
Electropltiny
Refining of metals
What are the 3 reactions for mixing?
metal + acid = hydrogen + salt
Carbonate + acid = carbon dioxide + salt + water
acid + alkali = salt + water
What substance has PH level of 7?
Distilled water
When calcium carbonate mix with hydrochloric acid, what is produced?
carbon dioxide + calcium chloride
How do you test if carbon dioxide is produced?
Add limewater, if the limewater turns chalky, then there is presence of carbon dioxide
What are examples of neutralization?
Sodium hydroxide + sodium hydochloride
What is a source for sulphur dioxide?
Acid rain
Burning of fuel
What are chemical reactions that bring harm to our environment?
Rusting
Burning
Food Decay
What are examples of indicators?
Universal indicator
red and blue litmus paper
What turns Blue litmus red?
acid
What happens to the blue litmus paper when it comes into contact with sodium hydroxide?
It will remain blue
What PH value does green represent
neutral (7)
Are acid and alkaline conductors of electricity?
Yes
