chemical reaction Flashcards
the amount of a product produced by a chemical reaction
yield
a chemical compound produced through a chemical reaction
product
a chemical that speeds up a chemical reaction without being consumed in the reaction
catalyst
an instrment that measures the amount of light of a specicic wavelenth absobed by a chemical compound
spectrophotometer
the forces between atoms that hold those atoms together to form chemical comopunds
Atomic bonds
a description of a chemical compound using the letter designations of the elements
formula
describes a chemical reaction by showing the formula of all reactants and products
Chemical equation
anything that has mass and takes up space
matter
an insolated comtainer thatprevents a chemical reaction from gaining or losing heat due to its surroundings
calorimeter
the smallest particle of matter that still had the properties of an element
atom
what is the law of conservation of energy
no energy can be created or distroyed
what is the law of conservation of matter
no matter can be created or distroyed
if the mass of the reactants increase what happens to the products
they also increases
what can the concentration of reactants affect
the rate of chemical reaction
what must be balenced on both sides of a chemical equation
reactants and products
