Reactions and Y9 recap Flashcards
What is an exothermic reaction?
energy is transferred to the surroundings
how does filtration work?
liquid passes through the filter paper and insoluble particles get caught
where is most of the mass in an atom located
nucleus
What happens to the temperature of an exothermic reaction?
temperature increases
what is an endothermic reaction
energy is taken in from surroundings
What happens to the temperature of an endothermic reaction?
temperature decreases
give an every day use of endothermic reaction
sport injury pack
What is the energy of the products compared to reactants in an exothermic reaction
less
What is the energy of the products compered to reactants in an endothermic reaction
more
what is activation energy
Minimum energy that particles must have for a reaction to occur
how do ionic bonds form?
when metals react with non-metals by transferring electrons
how do covalent bonds form?
when a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms, usually non-metals
