Chemical Reactions Flashcards
Precipitate
substance to be deposited in solid form from a solution
Element
substances that cannot be chemically interconverted or broken down into simpler substances and are primary constituents of matter
Iron
no.26 magnetic silvery-grey metal chemical element of atomic material for construction and manufacturing
Atom
smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist
Proton
subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude
Electron
subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
Neutron
subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen.
Solution
liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).
Aqueious
containing water.
