What is a substance or molecule that participates in the chemical reaction?
Reactant
What is the substance that forms a chemical reaction?
Product
What chemical reaction requires energy input (when the energy is absorbed)?
Endothermic
What chemical reaction releases energy to the surroundings?
Exothermic
When two or more substances combine it is?
Synthesis
When a compound breaks to form two or more substances it is?
Decomposition
When it gets dissolved?
Solute
When it does the dissolving?
Solvent
Solutions are all?
homogeneous
Different/ easily separated
Heterogeneous
Same/ uniformed
Homogeneous
Substance that changes the rate (speeds up reaction) of a chemical reaction without being consumed or changed significantly.
Catalyst
Homogeneous mixture throughout which two or more substances are uniformly dispersed
Solution
Reaction where one element takes the place of another
AX+B=BX+A
Single displacement
Reaction were two compounds are displaced (switched).
AX+BY=BX+AY
Double displacement
