  229. 229You can convert chemical word equations into chemical formula equations. Do so with water + energy (electricity) -> oxygen + hydrogenH2O + energy -> O2 + H2
  230. 230Atoms are neither created or destroyed, what happens to them in chemical reactions?The atoms change partners as old substances are changed into new substances
  231. 231How do we break chemical bonds?We add energy
  232. 232What happens when chemical bonds are broken?Energy is released
  233. 233Give an example of an exothermic reactionAn explosion
    (think EXothermic energy EXits)
  234. 234Give an example of an endothermic reactionA cold pack or baking
    (think ENdothermic energy ENters)
  235. 235Chemical reactions involve changes in energy; energy is either ____ or ___ during a chemical reactionProduced or absorbed
  236. 236Give a chemical equation for an exothermic reactionCombustion reactions:
    C8H18 + O2 -> CO2 +H2O + energy
    or
    Octane + oxygen -> carbon oxide + water + energy (heat)
  237. 237Give a chemical equation for an endothermic reactionCooking:
    Baking soda + energy -> carbon dioxide+ water + sodium carbonate
    NaHCO3 + energy -> CO2 + H2O + Na2CO3
  238. 238Reaction rateMeasure of how fast a reaction occurs
  239. 239CatalystA substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up in a reaction
  240. 240EnzymeA special protein molecule that regulates chemical reactions in living organisms
  241. 241InhibitorSubstances that slow down or prevent chemical reactions
  242. 242CorrosionA process whereby metals or stone are chemically degraded or broken down
  243. 243RustIron oxide, a product of the chemical reaction of iron, oxygen and moisture
  244. 244GalvanizationThe process of protecting metals by coating them with a thin layer of zinc
  245. 245ElectroplatingTo plate or coat with a metal by electrolysis
  246. 246CombustionThe highly exothermic combination of a substance with oxygen, requires heat, oxygen and fuel
  247. 247Chemical reactions can occur at ___different speeds
  248. 248Reaction rate can be measure by how quickly a _____ disappears or ____ appearsReactant, product
  249. 249What 4 things can you change to speed up a reaction rate?-Temperature (higher temp faster reaction)
    -Stirring (stirring increases rate of reaction)
    -Surface area (more surface area in contract faster reaction rate)
    -Concentration (higher the concentration faster the reaction)
  250. 250A catalyst does not affect what?The amount of products produced, only the speed at which they are produced
  251. 251Give examples of when catalysts are usedProduction of vegetable shortening, synthetic rubber and high-octane gas
  252. 252Enzymes helps reactions in the body that do what?Break down food
  253. 253Where is the enzyme that helps breakdown starch molecules?In the saliva
  254. 254Give examples of when inhibitors are used-In plant seeds to prevent germination until perfect conditions
    -Added to foods and medicines to slow down decomposition
  255. 255How do we prevent corrosion?-Applying a thing coat of paint
    -Galvanization (coating with zinc)
    -Electroplating (coating with metal using electrolysis)
  256. 256Give an example of corrosionRust
  257. 257When do we use combustion?Burning:
    -Gasoline in a car
    -Natural gas in a furnace
    -Food in our body
    -Propane in a bbq
  258. 258Products of combustion are not always ____Beneficial
  259. 259Burning fossil fuels produces what?-Water
    -Carbon dioxide
    -Smoke, soot, ash
    -Heat
    -Carbon
    -Sulfur and nitrogen oxides (NOX and SOX!)
  260. 260In combustion __ is used up and ___ is produceoxygen and energy
  261. 261In Rutherford's model, most of the space that is taken up by and atom is___Empty space
