  • Chemical Reaction
    • It is a process where a particular substance or substances change into one or more new substances with different properties
  • Gas Production
    • Some chemical reactions result in the formation of gas. This means that substances have incomplete combustion or have insufficient supply of oxygen
    • Also called "Evolution of Gas"
  • Solid Production
    • Other chemical reactions result in the formation of solid substance or precipitate
  • Colour Change
    • There is a noticeable change in the color of the substance during a chemical reaction
  • Temperature Change
    • There is a noticeable change in the temperature during a chemical reaction
  • Exothermic
    • It occurs when the substance releases energy in the form of heat or light
    • It is often warm or hot.
  • Endothermic
    • It occurs when the substances absorbs or take in energy
    • It is often cold
  • Chemical Equation
    • It consists of symbols and formulas of the reacting substances and their products
  • Reactants
    • Are found at the left side of the equation
  • Products
    • Are found on the right side of the equation
  • Law of Conservation of Mass
    • It states that the mass of the product(s) and the mass of the reactant(s) in a chemical equation must be EQUAL
  • Addition
    • it is known as a combination or synthesis reaction.
    • Multiple reactants combine together to form a single compound
  • Decomposition
    • A compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances.
    • Are classified into thermal elctrolytic and photo
  • Single-Replacement
    • One element is substituted for another element in a compound generating a new compound and a pure element
  • Double Replacement
    • Two ionic compounds exchange cations or anions to form two new compounds. Forming a precipitate can help drive the reaction to the right
  • Combustion
    • A fuel typically a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water which generates heat and light
  • Neutralization
    • Acid and base combine to neaturalize each other in aqueous solutions usually resluting in a salt and water
