Chemical Reaction Vocabulary12/4/2012 • CHEMICAL REACTION: where one or more substances break bonds and reform bonds to create NEW SUBSTANCES!
Chemical Reaction Vocabulary12/4/2012 • CHEMICAL CHANGE: when one or more substances changes it’s identity (i.e. what is inside) • Ex. When you bond H and O, two reactive gases, you get H2O which is a liquid and is not reactive. • PHYSICAL CHANGE: when one or more substances changes its appearance (i.e. how it looks; you touch nothing inside) • Ex. When you melt an ice cube into liquid water, both the ice cube and liquid water are made of H2O molecules. THEY ARE THE SAME SUBSTANCE!!!
Chemical Reaction Vocabulary 12/4/2012 • CHEMICAL PROPERTY:characteristic of an object that will tell you what it can do in a reaction; you will usually have to change the identity of the object to measure/observe • Ex. Reactivity, flammability • PHYSICAL PROPERTY: characteristic of an object that can be measured/observed without changing the identity of the object • Ex. Phase of matter, solubility, density, mass, etc…
SIGNS OF A CHEMICAL REACTION 12/4/2012 • ENERGY EXCHANGE (ENDO OR EXOTHERMIC) • ENDOTHERMIC REACTION: • Energy is taken into the reaction • EXOTHERMIC REACTION • Energy is given out during a reaction (Think EXIT; EXO) • By ENERGY we mean for example: • Heat • Light • Sound • Electricity • GAS FORMATION
Chemical Reaction Vocabulary 12/4/2012 • COLOR CHANGE • ODOR CHANGE • SOLID FORMATION (PRECIPITATE) • PRECIPITATE: • A sign of a chemical reaction in a liquid where a solid is produced • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RE-dFN7U91M AND THE BIGGEST INDICATOR: WHEN A NEW SUBSTANCE IS FORMED!!!
