Q

What’s the law of conservation of mass

A

Mass is neither created nor destroyed in normal chemical reactions
(Reworded) the total mass of reactants equals the total mass of the products equals the same number of atoms
BALANCED EQUATIONS FOLLOW THIS RULE

17
Q

Know how to…

A

Balance equations

18
Q

In terms of energy content, what are the two kinds of reactions

A

Exothermic, endothermic

19
Q

What’s an exothermic reaction?

A

A reaction in which energy is released to the surroundings , the temperature of surroundings increases (gets hotter), the energy content of products is less than energy content of the reactants

20
Q

Know how to draw

A

Exothermic reaction charts

21
Q

What’s an endothermic reaction?

A

A reaction in which energy is absorbed from the surroundings , the temperature of the surroundings decreases, the energy content of products is greater than the energy content of the reactants

22
Q

Know how to draw…

A

Endothermic reaction charts

23
Q

What’s a synthesis reaction

A

Combine

Combine multiple substances to produce single, more complex, product

24
Q

What’s a decomposition reaction

A

The breakdown of a single compound to produce two or more simpler substances
1 reactant

25
Q

What’s a single displacement reaction

A

Reaction in which a single element reacts with a compound , active elements replace less active elements

26
Q

What’s a double displacement reaction

A

2 elements switch partners
Occurs in ionic compounds
Reactions in which 2 elements in different compounds exchange places

27
Q
