The products in a decomposition reaction?

The products in a decomposition reaction depend on what the reactants are in that decomposition reaction. The products will be different depending on the reactants.


What are the reactants and products of the forward reaction?

The reactants are on the left side of the equation, and the products are on the right side of the equation. The reactants are used up in a chemical reaction, and the products are the substances made by the reaction.


The rate of chemical reactions depend on what four things?

Factors affecting the reaction rate: - Concentrations of the reactants- Temperature- Pressure- Stirring- Catalysts- Granulometry (and the surface area) of the reactants- Reaction order- Type of the reaction- The solvent used- External factors as irradiationetc.


Does endothermic have high or low activation energy?

An endothermic reaction would not necessarily have either a high or low activation energy; it could be either and would depend on the reactants. Also, the activation energy alone does not determine if a reaction is endothermic or exothermic; a low or high activation energy could be part of an endothermic or exothermic reaction, again depending on the reactants.

What is the starting material in a chemical reaction?

Check your local newspaper, online ads, and local signage for places to lease. As for what is the best kind of space for a small business, that would depend on what type of small business you're planning on opening.


How do chemists indicate a reversible reaction when writing a chemical equation?

Theoretically, chemical equations are reversible but in reality this is not true. Combustion is not normally written as a reversible reaction unless in an extreme hypothetical sense. Generally, one cannot tell if a chemical equation is reversible. It is a matter of experience and study.


What other two ways of increasing rates of reaction?

There are 4 ways to speed up rate of reactionTemperature - if you increase this then ther will be more molecules with sufficient energy to reach 'over' the activation energy barrierConcentration - there are more molecules, so more collisionsCatalyst (or enzyme in bio-organic reactions) - this is a substance that speeds up the rate of reaction as it lowers the activation energy reaction 'barrier', meaning more collisions will be succesfulSurface Area - if one of the reactants is a solid then breaking it up it into smaller pieces will increase surface area at which more molecules can collide to react.It's all based on the collision theory.


What is the enthalpy of reaction-?

the heat released or absorbed in a reaction


What is a collision?

A collision boundary is two plates colliding into each other creating a subduction zone. The heavier/slower plate dives 20-60 degrees down from the surface and the lighter/faster plate is crushed and forms folded mountains along the boundary.


What is true of the enthalpy reaction?

Its value does not depend on which reaction are added


A pressed polystyrene top was used to cover the polystyrene cup after the acid and base solutions had been mixed?

So long as the reactants and any solvent were ionic and water respectively, nothing. If there was an organic component to the reaction mix, it would depend on what that organic component was - it could dissolve the cup.
