Q

What do all molecules contain? Where is it contained?

A

Stored chemical energy
Contained within the bonds that are between the atoms that are within the molecules and within the the bonding between the molecules themselves.

Q

What is involved in reduction?

A

Loss of oxygen
Gain of hydrogen
GAIN OF ELECTRONS

17
Q

Acronym for oxidation and reduction?

A

OIL RIG

Oxidation Is Loss Reduction Is Gain

18
Q

Define the reactivity/activity series?

A

Ranks metals on their desire to lose electrons
The MORE reactive element wants to form IONS
K wants to lose electrons
Au wants to lose electrons

19
Q

Define soluble?

A

A substance that is able to be dissolved, especially in water

20
Q

Define insoluble?

A

A substance that is unable to be dissolved

21
Q

Define precipitate?

A

When a substance is deposited in solid form from a solution

22
Q

Define ionic compound?

A

A chemical compound that is held together by electrostatic forces called ionic bonds

23
Q

Define cation?

A

Positively charged ions

24
Q

Define anion?

A

Negatively charged ions

25
Q

Describe what happens when a substance dissolves?

A

The substance will begin to break down into its molecules once in the liquid.
It will separate into its ions which are not able to be seen by the naked eye.

26
Q

Define monatomic?

A

Consisting of one atom

27
Q

Define polyatomic?

A

Consisting of two or more atoms

28
Q

Define combustion?

A

Rapid chemical combination of a substance with oxygen, involving the production of heat and light.

29
Q

Define rate of reaction?

A

The speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds

30
Q

List the five ways that the rate of a chemical reaction can be controlled?

A
Temperature
Concentration
Agitation
Surface area
Catalyst
31
Q

Effect of temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction?

A

Increasing the temperature will normally increase the rate of the reaction

32
Q

Effect of concentration on the rate of a chemical reaction?

A

Increasing the concentration of the reactants will increase the rate of the reaction.

33
Q

Effect of surface area of reactants on the rate of a chemical reaction?

A

If the reactants is crushed up the rate of reaction will increase

34
Q

Effect of catalysts on the rate of a chemical reaction?

A

If a catalyst is added then the reaction rate will be sped up

35
Q

Describe what enzymes do?

A

They hold reactants molecules together until they rearrange to form products. Eg amylase

36
Q

Why are enzymes so important in digestion?

A

They break down the starches and complex carbohydrates into simple sugars for easy absorption into the body
