The correct terms for the two sides of a chemical equation?
given the law of conservation of mass, we now know that the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the product.
What are the starting substances that are involved in a chemical reaction called?
Substances initially present in a chemical reaction that are consumed during the reaction to make products are called "reactants".A "reagent" is a substance or compound that is added to a system in order to bring about a chemical reaction or is added to see if a reaction occurs.Although the terms reactant and reagent are often used interchangeably, a reactant is more specifically a "substance that is consumed in the course of a chemical reaction".Solvents and catalysts, although they are involved in the reaction, are usually not referred to as reactants.
What is the difference between physical and chemical changes in terms of what happens to the matter involved in each change?
In a physical change, the chemical composition of the substance does not change, it merely changes form. In a chemical change, the chemical formula changes so that fundamental properties such as density and molar mass change.
In terms of chemical bonds and electrons what kinds of changes occur between atoms when substances undergo chemical reactions?
Bonds are broken by rearrangement of electrons, and then new bonds are made, again by rearrangement (sharing, donating, etc) of electrons.
Chemical properties of diamonds?
In chemical terms, diamond is an allotrope of carbon.
What general terms does a chemical equation indicate?
Chemical formulas of reactants and products; number of molecules involved in the reaction.
What substance is on the left side of a chemical reaction?
The substances on the left side of a chemical equation are the reactants. The right hand side substances are the products.i.e. A + B -------> C + D(reactants) (products)
Do chemical changes and chemical reactions differ?
No. They are just two different terms that mean the same thing.
What is the purpose of reactants and products?
The terms reactant and product can be used to describe constituents of individual enzymatic reactions or entire metabolic pathways. Reactants (or 'substrates') are the starting materials for a reaction, products are the result of the chemical reaction.
How does the rate law show how concentration changes affect the rate of the reaction?
The rate is expressed in terms of concentrations of the reactants raised to some power.
How does the rate law show how concentration changes affect rate of reaction?
The rate is expressed in terms of concentrations of the reactants raised to some power.
How does the rate law show how concentration changes affect the rate reaction?
The rate is expressed in terms of concentrations of the reactants raised to some power.
How does the rate law show how concentrated changes affect the rate of reaction?
The rate is expressed in terms of concentrations of the reactants raised to some power.
