Cards in this deck (11)
- 1Volatilitythe ease that a liquid turns into a gas. Volatility increases as boiling point decreases
- 2Refluxcontinual boiling and condensing of a reaction mixture to ensure that the reaction takes places without the contents of the flask boiling dry
- 3Esterificationthe reaction of an alcohol with a carboxyliv acid to prduce an ester and water
- 4Dehydrationa elimination reaction in which water is removed from a saturated molecule to make an unsaturated molecule
- 5Hydrolysisa reaction with water or aqueous hydroxide ions that breaks a chemical compound into two compounds
- 6Nucleophilic substitutiona type of substitution reaction in which a nucleophile is attracted to an electron-deficient centre where it donates a pair of electrons to form a new covalent bond
- 7Limiting reagenta substance in a chemical reaction that runs out first
- 8Molecular ion, M+positive ion formed in mass spectrometry when a molecule loses an electron
- 9Fragmentationthe process in mass spectrometry that causes a positive ion to split into pieces, one of which is a positive fragment ion
- 10Electrophileelectron pair acceptor
- 11Nucleophileelectron pair donor
