Vocabulary
Acids are substances that produce these positively charged ions in an aqueous solution.
What are Hydrogen ions (H+)?
In addition to salt, this is the other primary product formed during a neutralization reaction.
What is water?
On the standard pH scale, this number represents a perfectly neutral substance.
What is 7?
When naming compounds with transition metals, these are used in parentheses to indicate the metal's charge.
What are Roman Numerals?
In a decomposition reaction, this is the total number of reactants you will always find on the left side of the equation.
What is 1?
This reaction type is characterized by one lone element and one compound as reactants, where the lone element 'kicks out' an element from the compound.
What is single replacement?
This adjective describes the tactile feel of basic substances like soaps and detergents.
What is slippery?
If you dip blue litmus paper into a solution and it turns red, the solution is confirmed to be this.
What is acidic?
This Greek prefix is used to indicate that there are exactly four atoms of an element in a covalent compound.
What is Tetra-?
This molecule must always be present as a reactant for a reaction to be classified as combustion.
What is oxygen (O2)?
This type of reaction occurs when two simple reactants join to form a single, more complex product.
What is synthesis (or combination)?
Ammonia (NH3) is considered a base because it produces these ions indirectly when put in water.
What are Hydroxide ions (OH−)?
This term is often used as a synonym for 'basic' when describing solutions with a pH greater than 7.
What is alkaline?
The name of the ionic compound FeBr2.
What is Iron(II) bromide?
If you see the equation 2H2O --> 2H2 + O2, this specific reaction type is occurring.
What is decomposition?
Because pH is this type of scale, a substance with a pH of 4 is 10 times more acidic than a substance with a pH of 5.
What is logarithmic?
Acids are known for this destructive property, particularly regarding metals and stones.
What is corrosion?
Because the pH scale is inverse, a solution with more hydrogen ions (H+) will have this kind of pH value.
What is lower?
The correct molecular name of N2O4.
What is Dinitrogen tetroxide?
The reaction Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2, is classified as this type of reaction.
What is single replacement?
This type of compound consists of exactly one metal and one non-metal.
What is ionic?
When Nitric acid (HNO3) reacts with Potassium hydroxide (KOH), this specific salt is formed.
What is Potassium nitrate (KNO3)?
The 'P' in the term pH stands for this.
What is power or potential?
In the compound Cr2O3, the specific oxidation state of the Chromium ion
What is +3?
In a double replacement reaction, if the reactants are AgNO3 and NaCl, these are the products.
What are NaNO3 and AgCl?
