Science Chapter 8 Flashcards
Ace science
What do you call a substance that reacts with oxygen to make burning reaction
fuel
What is burning
a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen.
Give examples of fuels
Charcoal,wood,coal,natural gas and oil
Describe what happens when fuel burns
the chemical energy is changed into thermal, light and sound energy.The energy dissipate(spread out) into the surroundings
What is another term for burning
Combustion
What do you call a chemical reaction in which energy to given out to surroundings
Exothermic reaction
which reaction is the combustion of hydrogen
Exothermic reaction
Hydrogen+ Oxygen =
Water
What is an example of the exothermic reaction of other substances burning in air
Magnesium-> oxygen + Magnesium oxide
Burning magnesium that creates magnesium oxide.
Energy is given out as heat and light as the magnesium and oxygen rearrange themselves
What is an oxidation reaction
any reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen
Potassium+water=
Potassium hydroxide+ hydrogen
What is formed when a substance burn and combines with oxygen
Oxide
what type of particles/atoms water is made up of
Hydrogen and oxygen
Magnesium+ hydrochloric acid=
magnesium chloride+ hydrogen
Explain what happens in the potassium and water reaction
The bond between the hydrogen and oxygen in the water break. the atoms rearrange to form potassium hydroxide and hydrogen. Stored chemical energy is changed to thermal energy, and dissipates into the environment
sodium hydrogencarbonate+ citric acid=
sodium citrate+water++carbon dioxide
