LEC 12: Types of Chemical Reaction Flashcards
process that leads to a change in substances
chemical reaction
chemical reaction involves: (4)
- rearrangement of atoms or molecules into different structures
- breaking or forming of bonds between the outermost electrons of the atoms
- consume or release energy
- different from a physical change, which does not result in a change in substances
symbolic representation of a chemical reaction
chemical equation
chemical equations provide us with the means to:
- summarize the reaction
- display the substances that are reacting
- show the products
- indicate the amounts of all component substances in a reaction
chemical reactions always involve _____
change
_____, _____, and _____ rearrange to form different substances
