Nuclear
What was the name of the operation that developed the atomic bomb?
What is the Manhattan Project?
This term describes the speed at which a chemical reaction proceeds.
What is the reaction rate?
A substance that has mass and takes up space.
What is matter?
This process finds the heat of a reaction by measuring temperature changes in a calorimeter
What is calorimetry?
In the chemical equation 4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃, what is the total number of aluminum atoms on the reactant side?
What is 4?
What particle is 0/0 Y?
What is Gamma Particle?
This is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur, often represented by the symbol Ea.
What is the activation energy?
The temperature at which a liquid starts to boil.
What is the boiling point?
In an endothermic reaction, this happens to the surrounding temperature as energy is taken in.
What is the temperature decrease?
When a reaction produces 10 grams of product from 10 grams of reactants, this demonstrates what principle?
What is the law of conservation of mass?
The random process in which a nucleus loses energy by emitting radiation. (This is usually in the form of alpha particles (Helium nuclei), beta particles (electrons or positrons), or gamma rays
What is Nuclear decay?
Increasing this factor typically increases the reaction rate by providing more energy to the molecules involved.
What is temperature?
The state of matter where particles have no fixed shape or volume but are still connected.
What is a liquid?
This reaction type gives off energy and makes the surroundings warmer.
What is an exothermic reaction?
This term describes a chemical equation that shows the same number of each type of atom on both sides.
What is a balanced equation?
What occurs when a neutron slams into a larger atom, forcing it to split into two smaller atoms?
What is Fission
According to Le Chatelier’s Principle, if a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in temperature, pressure, or concentration, it will shift in this direction to counteract the change.
What is the opposite direction of the change?
The ability of a substance to rust.
What is oxidation?
This term describes the energy needed to break one mole of bonds in gas molecules, influencing how stable a reaction is
What is bond energy?
This type of reaction involves one compound breaking down into two or more simpler substances.
What is a decomposition reaction?
What is the formula for finding a half life?
What is N(t) = N(0) * (1/2)^(t/T)?
A reaction at equilibrium will shift to produce more products when the concentration of this component is increased according to Le Chatelier's Principle.
What is a reactant?
The type of mixture that is easy to separate mechanically, like by filtering or screening.
What is a heterogeneous mixture?
In exothermic reactions, the total energy of the products is ___ than that of the reactants, resulting in the release of energy.
What is less?
This reaction type involves the exchange of ions between two compounds, resulting in the formation of new products.
What is double replacement?
