Chemistry Flashcards
1
Q
What is the law of conservation of mass?
A
The mass of a set of atoms never changes over time no matter how atoms rearrange themselves.
2
Q
Word and chemical equation for photosynthesis
A
Carbon dioxide + water + (light energy) glucose + oxygen gas.
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
3
Q
Word and chemical equation of respiration
A
Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide and Water
C6H1206 + O2 = CO2 + H20
4
Q
Factors affecting chemical reactions
A
- The concentration of the reactants. The more concentrated the faster the rate.
- Temperature. …
- Catalyst
- Surface area
Light.
5
Q
Reactions of metals with carbonates. Reactants and products
A
- Metal + acid = salt + hydrogen gas
- Metal carbonate + acid = salt + water + carbon dioxide
- Metal bicarbonate + acid = salt + water + carbon dioxide
6
Q
What are some reactions where gases are produced
A
- Acid + metal = hydrogen gas
- Acid + metal carbonate = carbon dioxide
- Decomposition of water
7
Q
What is combustion:
What is corrosion:
What is decomposition:
What is neutralization:
What is precipitation:
A
- Gas + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Heat.
- wearing away due to chemical reactions, mainly oxidation (
- Then a compound breaks down to two or more substances
- acid + base = Water +salt
- cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate.
