Module 8 - Chemical Equations V5 Flashcards
What separates individual reactants and products in a chemical equation?
a plus sign
A product is a substance which is generated as a result of a chemical reaction.
true
Chemical equations refer to the written form of a chemical reaction.
true
The formula mass of a compound is the sum of the atomic weights of each element in its chemical formula.
true
What information is not needed to calculate percent composition?
the state of matter of the compound
The molecular mass applies to ionic compounds.
false
Coefficients refer to the amount of a specific atom.
false
What is the balancing coefficient of O2 in the following equation?
CH4(g) + ?O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(l)
2
An equation is balanced when both the reactant side and the product side of the reaction have unequal numbers of each type of atom.
false
Atomic mass and molecular mass have the same units.
false
The molar mass is the mass of one mole of a given substance.
true
What are the units of molar mass?
g/mol
A + BX → B + AX is the general formula for a single replacement reaction.
true
Decomposition reactions occur when an element which is more reactive takes the place of one which is less reactive, thus resulting in two new compounds.
false
Predict the products of the following combination reaction.
C(s) + O2 →
CO2
