Oxidation
What is the process in which an atom loses electrons.
100
Fluorine
What is the most reactive element.
100
Covalent Bond
What is the bond between two non-metals, in which the electrons are shared.
100
Temperature
What is the measurement in degrees of how hot or cold a substance is.
100
Catalyst
What is a substance that lowers the activation energy of a reaction.
200
Reduction
What is the process in which an atom gains electrons.
200
Isotope
What is an element with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons.
200
Ionic Bond
What is the bond between metals and non-metals, in which a crystal lattice formation of alternating cations and anions is formed.
200
Enthaply Change
What is the heat change in a reaction. Heat is either released or absorbed.
200
Rate of Reaction
What is the measurement of reaction, such as volume of gas produced, divided by time.
300
Electrolytic Cell
What is the cell used for plating and recovering reactive elements.
300
Zeff
What is the effective nuclear charge of an atom in which the nucleus attracts the electrons.
300
Metallic Bond
What is the bond between metals in which a sea of electrons is formed with positive centers.
300
Exothermic Reaction
What is a reaction in which heat is released. As a result, the heat change is negative and the products are more stable than the reactants.
300
Activated Complex
What is the point of maximum energy produced in a reaction. The activation energy of a reaction is equal to the activated complex minus the energy of the reactants.
400
Anode
What is the part of the voltaic cell in which oxidation occurs.
400
Ionization Energy
What is the energy required to remove an valence electron from an atom. Ionization energy increases as the number of protons in an atom increases.
400
Allotrope
What is an element with different bonding arrangements. Allotropes have different chemical and physical properties.
400
Specific Heat
What is the heat per mass unit needed to raise temperature of substance by 1 degree Celsius. Example: Water= 4.18.
400
Ways to increase reaction rate
What is increased concentration of reactants (due to increase in particle collisions), decreased particle size (due to increased surface area, therefore more collisions), and increase in temperature (due to increased speed and energy of reactants, therefore powerful collisions, and more of them).
500
Cathode
What is the part of the voltaic cell in which reduction occurs.
500
Emission Spectrum
What is the energy produced by an atom transitioning from an energized state to a relaxed state.
500
Van Der Waal's Forces
What is the intermolecular bonding in which the cations are attracted to the anions of separate molecules. This force increase as polarity of molecules increases. A dipole-dipole attraction is permanent and strong, while an instantaneous dipole is weak and easily broken because the molecules are non-polar.
500
Average Bond Enthaply
What is the energy required to break one mole of bonds of compounds in the gaseous state. The average enthalpy is found using multiple reactions consisting of similar compounds.
500
Collision Theory
What is the theory in which particles in a reaction must collide, have sufficient energy, and have correct geometry in order for a reaction to occur.
