?
aqueous
dissolved in water
1 of 25
compounds
when atoms combine during a reaction
2 of 25
covalent bonds
where atoms share electrons to gain a full outer shell
3 of 25
delocalised electron
an electron that isn't associated with an atom or bond.
4 of 25
electrode
a conductor through which electricity enters or leaves an object
5 of 25
electronic structure
the state of electrons in an atom
6 of 25
electrons
carry an electric charge inside an atom
7 of 25
isotope
forms of an element with the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons.
8 of 25
mixture
when atoms have been mixed together, but there is no chemical bond between them.
9 of 25
neutralisation
when an acid and an alkali react to make a salt and water
10 of 25
elements
substances made up of atoms that all have the same number of protons and neutrons in their nucleus
11 of 25
ionic bonds
a metal loses electrons, which are transferred to a non-metal during a reaction, changing the charge of the atoms
12 of 25
solutions
mixtures of two or more substances
13 of 25
neutrons
found in the nucleus of an atom, has no electric charge
14 of 25
protons
found in the nucleus of an atom, has a positive electric charge
15 of 25
activation energy
The energy needed to start the reaction.
16 of 25
Atom economy
The way measure the atoms wasted when making a chemical.
17 of 25
Concentrations of solutions
The amount of a substance in a certain volume of a solution.
18 of 25
Collision theory
The collusion frequency during a reaction: the more colliding particles, the faster the reaction.
19 of 25
Electrolysis
Where an electrical current is passed through an electrolyte (molten or dissolved ionic compound) to cause a reaction.
20 of 25
Moles
The unit for amount of substance.
21 of 25
Oxidation
When metals react with oxygen to form oxides.
22 of 25
Percentage yield
The mass of a product made.
23 of 25
Polymers
Monomers linked together to form a long molecule.
24 of 25
Reduction
The loss of oxygen from a substance.
