unit 2: chapter 4

Question 1

evidence of chemical reactions

Answer 1

change in colour, energy is released, gas is produced, precipitate

Question 2

a change in colour is not always reliable

Answer 2

especially when combining things with water

Question 3

law of conservation of mass

Answer 3

total mass of reactants equals total mass of products

Question 4

word equations in chemical reactions

Answer 4

just the names (ex. hydrogen and nitrogen)

Question 5

skeleton equations in chemical reactions

Answer 5

focus on getting the right formulas, not necessarily balanced

Question 6

balanced chemical equations in reactions

Answer 6

fully balanced, final stage

Question 7

order for balancing chemical equations

Answer 7

• non-metals
• hydrogen, oxygen

Question 9

synthesis reactions

Answer 9

a + b => ab

Question 10

decomposition reactions

Answer 10

ab => a + b

Question 24

single displacement: metal and water form

Answer 24

base and hydrogen

Question 25

single displacement: for a reaction to work, the DISPLACING METAL must be

Answer 25

ABOVE the displaced element (on that activity sheet)

Question 26

double displacement: acid and sulfite form

Answer 26

H2S (g) and salt

Question 27

double displacement; acid and carbonate form
