Unit 2 Flashcards
When a chemical reaction has happened
Change in color, temp., state, sound, smell, flash of light
Law of conservation of mass
Antoine Lausier
1) Mass of reactants is equal to the mass of products
2) The number of atoms you start with will be the number you finish with
When does a double displacement reaction not happen
When both solutions are (aq)
For single displacement reactions….
Check the activity series
Combustion reactions
When a fuel burns in oxygen and produces a flame
Complete combustion
CxHy+O2 —> CO2+ H2O Releases the most energy and cleanest flame
Incomplete combustion
When oxygen supply is limited so CO, CO2, H2O and soot are produced
Metal oxides +water
Bases
Non metal oxides + water
Acids
Very acidic
More hydrogen atoms
Very basic
More hydroxide atoms
pH levels
0-6- acidic 7- neutral 8-14- basic
