Overreacting Flashcards
What happens when bonds are broken?
it requires energy from the surroundings. It is called activation energy.
What happens when bonds are made?
When bonds are made it releases energy back into surroundings
What happens in all exothermic and endothermic reactions?
There is energy required and energy is releases.
What occurs during endothermic reactions?
Endothermic reactions absorb energy so the temperature decreases.
What occurs during exothermic reactions?
Exothermic reactions release energy so the temperature increases
What is an example of reactants and the products that are made?
Sodium reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen

Why does a symbol equation provide more information?
A symbol equation shows formulas amd how many atoms are in each element
How do we balance equations?
To balance an equation, you can only add or change coefficients
How does the law of conservation of matter work in relation to balanced and unbalanced equations?
