Chemistry Flashcards
ionic bonds vs molecular bonds which are stronger
molecular
how are ionic bonds formed
metal and non-metal
borrowing of electrons, metal and non-metal
give an example of an ionic compound
NaCl (table salt)
how are molecular bonds formed
non-metal and non-metal
sharing electrons
what is the law of conservation of mass
law of conservation of mass states that the mass of the reactants and products must be same
difference between acids and bases
acids are ph less than 7
bases ph more than 7
acids sour and bases bitter
what do acids always have
hydrogen
what do bases always have
hydroxide
what is an alkali
Its a base that dissolves in water
what is an alkaline solution
water with an alkali dissolved in it
acid + base
neutralisation reaction
salt and water
acid + metal
metal salt + hydrogen gas
acid + carbonate
salt + carbon dioxide + water
acid + metal carbonate?
same as acid + carbonate but the salt is a metal salt
metal salt, carbon dioxide and water
single displacement reaction
ab + c => ac + b
