Chemical Reaction types

Question 1

Decomposition reaction(catabolic reaction)

Answer 1

larger molecules are broke down into smaller molecules or atoms

Question 2

digestion

Answer 2

type of decomposition reaction, in which larger food molecules are broken down into smaller ones

Question 3

hydrolysis

Answer 3

decomposition reaction in which water must be broken apart in order for the reaction to occur. (Most digestion processes)

Question 4

synthesis reaction

Answer 4

Anabolic reaction, atoms or molecules are bonded to form larger molecules

Question 5

exergonic

Answer 5

one in which energy is released in the reaction. (most decomposition reactions)

Question 6

endergonic

Answer 6

one in which energy is needed in the reaction (most synthesis reactions)

Question 7

Acid

Answer 7

pH below 7

Question 8

Base(alkali)

Answer 8

pH above 7

Question 9

proton doners

Answer 9

an ionic compound which dissociates in water to release H+ ions

Question 10

The more H+ ions…

Answer 10

the stronger the acid

Question 11

Proton accepters

Answer 11

ionic compound that dissociates in water to produce a negative ion, likes to bond with H+ ions

Question 12

neutral

Answer 12

being neither an acid or a base, has a pH of 7

Question 13

salt

Answer 13

example of a neutral ionic compound

Question 14

organic compound

Answer 14

a compound composed of carbon, found in living organisms

Question 15

inorganic compound

Answer 15

a compound without carbon

Question 16

carbon atoms always…

Answer 16

form four covalent bonds to other atoms
