Water and Chemical Reactions Flashcards
The oxygen side of water has this kind of charge.
Slightly negative
Because water has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is described as this.
Neutral
The hydrogen side of water is slightly positive because of these.
Protons in the hydrogen nuclei are positive
This is the attraction of water molecules to water molecules.
Cohesion
In water, the electron cloud swarming mostly around oxygen has this charge.
Negative
Cohesion causes this.
Surface Tension
In water, this has a greater force of attraction of electrons than the hydrogen nuclei.
The oxygen nucleus, because it has 8 protons attracting the electron cloud while the hydrogen each only have 1 proton attracting electrons.
Adhesion is the attraction of water to . . .
molecules OTHER than water.
This is what happens to bonds during chemical reactions.
Bonds are broken &/or formed.
Reactants get turned into these during chemical reactions.
Products
This is what happens to atoms during chemical reactions.
They are rearranged.
This is the name for those substances that BEGIN a chemical reaction.
REACTANTS
This is the name of the substances that are generated in a chemical reaction.
PRODUCTS
This is another name for a chemical change.
Chemical reaction
During chemical reactions, energy levels can change but the amount of matter . . .
remains constant.
