Definition
  • Reactive
Term

       Properties of transition metals (Groups 3 - 12)

Definition

o   Can have varying oxidation number/Ionic Charge

Term

-          Halogens (Group 7)

Definition

o   Very reactive because almost a full shell

o   Gas at standard condition

 

o   Form salts with alkali metals

Term

-          Noble Gases (Group 8)

Definition

o   Not reactive due to full valance shells – Stable

Term
Rules of the Stock Method
Definition

-          If transition metal, state element, then roman numeral in brackets relative to the number of borrowed electrons

 

Term
How to name Covalent bonded molecules?
Definition

Use a prefix based on # of given elements in the molecule:

o   Prefixes:

§  1 = mono

§  2 = di

§  3 = tri

§  4 = tetra

§  5 = Penta

 

§  6 = Hexa….

Term
How to name Ionic bonded molecules?
Definition

No need to add prefix.

Metal first, gas second; suffix of "ide"

Term

What occurs during a    Single Displacement reaction?

Definition

AB + C ---> AC + B

Term
Double Displacement
Definition
AB + CD ---> AC + BD
Term
Decomposition
Definition
AB ---> A + B
Term
Combustion
Definition

Combustible + O---> H2O + CO2

Term
Synthesis
Definition
A + B ---> AB
Term
What is the law of conservation of mass?
Definition

Matter is neither created nor destroyed

Term
What information do the rows of the periodic table give you?
Definition

 Rows 1,2,4-8 predicts # of valence electrons

Term
What information do the periods of the periodic table give you?
Definition
Periods indicate the # of shells an element has
Term
What are the properties of an Acid?
Definition
Sour, induct electricity, react with metals to make hydrogen gas, reactions with carbonates to release carbon dioxide, turns litmus red, contains hydronium
Term
What are the properties of a Base?
Definition

o   Bitter, Slippery, Conduct electricity, substance that has hydroxide or forms in water

Term
What is an exothermic reaction?
Definition

   Exothermic reaction is the release of energy from a system to the surroundings (Heat) due to chemical reaction

Term
What is an endothermic reaction?
Definition

o   Endothermic reaction is the absorption of energy from the system (Cold) due to a chemical reaction

Term
What is the rate of reaction in reference to a chemical reaction?
Definition
Refers to the likelihood of a chemical reaction. How often, and how likely a reaction will occur due to various factors.
Term
What are the factors that affect rate of reaction, and how do they increase or decrease this rate?
Definition

Temperature - Increase of temperature will increase kinetic energy of the molecules, therefore increases rate of reaction

 

Surface Area - increase of surface area allows for more contact with reactant molecules, therefore increases rate of reaction

 

Nature of Reactants - Change of rate is different based on how reactive a reactant is

 

Catalysts - These complex compounds lower the required energy for reactions

 

Concentration - more molecules = higher likelihood for reaction
