Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    A ------------------ is a representation of a chemical reaction.

    Explanation
    A chemical equation is a representation of a chemical reaction, showing the reactants and products involved. It uses chemical formulas and symbols to depict the substances involved and their respective quantities. This allows scientists to understand and study the reaction, including the stoichiometry and the balance of atoms. Chemical equations are essential in chemistry as they provide a concise and standardized way to communicate and analyze chemical reactions.

    A ---------------- is a chemical equation that does not indicate the amount of reactants and products.

    Explanation
    A skeleton equation is a chemical equation that does not indicate the amount of reactants and products. It only shows the chemical formulas of the substances involved in the reaction. This type of equation is often used as a starting point for balancing chemical equations, where coefficients are added to represent the appropriate stoichiometric ratios. The lack of specific quantities in a skeleton equation allows for flexibility in representing different amounts of substances involved in the reaction.

    A ------------------- is a substance that that speeds up a reaction but is not used up in the reaction.

    Explanation
    A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a reaction by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur. It does this by providing an alternative reaction pathway with a lower energy barrier. The catalyst itself is not consumed in the reaction and remains unchanged at the end, allowing it to be reused multiple times. This property makes catalysts highly efficient and economical in chemical processes.

    The ------------- of metals lists metals in order of decresing reactivity.

    Explanation
    The reactivity series of metals lists metals in order of decreasing reactivity.

  • 5. 

    The cauculation of quantities in chemical reactions is a subject of chemestry called --------------.

    Explanation
    Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the calculation of quantities in chemical reactions. It involves determining the ratios of reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation, and using these ratios to calculate the amount of substances involved in the reaction. This is done through various stoichiometric calculations, such as mole-to-mole ratios, mass-to-mass ratios, and volume-to-volume ratios. Stoichiometry is essential in understanding and predicting the outcome of chemical reactions, as well as in determining the amount of reactants needed or the amount of products that can be obtained.

  • 6. 

    The -------------- determines the amount of product that can be produced in the reaction.

    Explanation
    The limiting regent refers to the reactant that is completely consumed in a chemical reaction, thus limiting the amount of product that can be produced. It determines the maximum amount of product that can be formed based on its stoichiometric ratio with the other reactants. Once the limiting regent is consumed, the reaction cannot proceed further and the amount of product formed is determined by the amount of limiting regent initially present.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The reactent that is not completely used up in the reaction is called ----------------------.

    Explanation
    In a chemical reaction, the reactant that is not completely consumed is known as the excess reagent. This means that there is an abundance of this particular reactant compared to the other reactant(s) involved in the reaction. The excess reagent remains in the reaction mixture even after the reaction is complete, indicating that it is not fully utilized in the reaction.
