Process which substances are changed into different substances?
Though a nuclear reaction could be the answer to this question, it is more probable that a chemical reaction is the change of one or more substances into a different substance or different substances. (The changes in nuclear reactions normally include only a single element.)Examples abound. The elements hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) combine in a chemical reaction to form water (H2O) in the following familiar reaction:2H2 + O2 => 2H2OWhen ozone (O3) breaks down spontaneously, it forms oxygen in the following reaction:2O3 => 3O2
Formation of rust?
Formation of rust is a type of chemical reaction called corrosion, Corrosion of an iron metal occurs when it reacts with either water or air to form a substance called hydrated iron oxide, also called rust.
A combination reaction occurs when a substance usually containing carbon reacts with oxygen to produce energy in the form of heat and light true or false?
FALSE. I would call this reaction a combustion reaction. I always understood a combination reaction to be a reaction between two elements or compounds to form 1 product. For example, sodium reacting with chlorine to produce sodium chloride. A combustion reaction usually forms more than one product. When burning fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil, etc.) the fuel contains compunds which are composed of mostly carbon & hydrogen. So when reacted with oxygen (or combusted) the products are carbon dioxide & water vapor, in addition to the heat & light produced.
What do you call substance with only one atom?
You call a substance with only one type of atom, an element.
What do you call a substance that flows?
A substance that flows is called "liquid".
What do you call it when oxygen is added to a substance?
When Oxygen is added to a substance it is called oxidation.
What do scientist call a substance that forms during a chemical reaction?
product
What do you call a substance speeding up a chemical process?
if at the end of the chemical THAT substance is unchanged .That substance is a catalyst. If it slows donw the reaction, it is called an inhibitor.
What do you call a chemical reaction in witch a complex substance is broken down into simpler substances?
decomposition
What do they call the gas that enters the atmosphere during the light reaction?
The gas that enters the atmosphere during the light reaction is oxygen (O2). Oxygen is produced as a byproduct when water is split during photosynthesis.
What do you call a substance that accelerates the rate of a chemica reaction?
A substance that accelerates the rate of a chemical reaction is called a catalyst.
What is the name of substance that slows reaction?
The substance that slows down a chemical reaction is an inhibitor. Instead you could also call an inhibitor an anticatalyst.-anticatalyst `antee'katlist1. (chemistry) a substance that retards a chemical reaction or diminishes the activity of a catalyst
What would you call a substance composed of 2atoms of hydrogen 1 atom of sulfur and 4 atoms of oxygen?
The substance you describe is called 'sulfuric acid'.
What happens to the atoms in copper oxide acid to call it a chemical reaction?
Copper and oxygen atoms form to create copper oxide. This is a synthesis reaction, and it can be created when copper is burned in a fire.

Is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction.?
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.
