Chapter 2 Flash Cards

AB
SolutionA mixture in which one or more substance are uniformly dissolved in another substance.
SolventIn a solution the substance in which a solute is dissolved.
acidAny substance that increases the concentration of hydrogen (H=) ions when added to a water solution.
redox reactionAoxidation reaction in which electrons are transferred between atoms.
hydronium ionThe H3O+ ion
oxidation reactionA chemical reaction in which a reactant loses one or more electrons, becoming more positive in charge
endergonic reactionReaction that involve a net obsorption of free energy.
hydroxide ionThe OH- ion
enzymeAre an imortant class of catalysts in living things.
dissociationThe separating of a molecule into simpler molecules, atoms, radicals, or ions.
saturated solutionA solution in which no more solute can dissolve.
bufferChemical that neutralizes small amounts of acids or bases added to a solution.
exergonic reactionChemical reactions that involve a net release of free energy.
activation energyamount of energy required for a chemical reaction to start and to continue on its own.
reduction reactionA chemical reaction in which a reactant gains one or more electrons, becoming more negative in charge.
catalystA chemical that reduces the amount of activation energy needed for a reaction but is not a reactant.
free energyThe energy in a system available for work.
pH scaleA numeric range that quantifies the relutive concentrations of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions in a solution.
baseany substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) ions when added to a water solution.
alkalineIt refers to bases
experimentIs based on a comparison of a control group with an experimental group.
bufferChemical that neutralizes small amounts of acids or bases added to a solution.
SamplingIs the technique of using a sample, that is, a samll part ot represent an entrie population. It has to be large and random.
Control groupIs an experiment a group or individual that serves as a standard of comparison with another group or individual to which ti is identical except for one factor.
Indepencent VariableAn experimentally manipurated variable.
energyIs the ability to do work or cause change.
Dependent VariableIs the results from the independent variable.
soluteA substance dissolved in a solution.
experimental groupIt has change the Independent variable.
ObservationTypically employs one or more of the five senses to preseive bojects or events.
PredictionIs a statement made in advance that states the results taht will be obtained from testing a hypothesis. If the hypothesis is true.
aqueous solutionA solution in which water is the solvent
concentrationA mcasuremement of the amount of solute dissolved in a fixed amount of solvent.
dataInclude any and all information that scientists gather in trying to answer their questions.
HypothesisIs a statement that both explains their observations and data and can be tested.
controlled experimentA test of variables using a comparison of a control group with an experimental group.
InferenceIs a conclusion made on the basis of facts or premises rather thaan on direct observations.
ModelIs essentially an explanation supported by data.
TheoryIs a broad and comprehensive statement of what is thought to be true.
StateThe rate at which atoms or molecules of a substance move dtermines is state: solid, liquid, or gas.
reactantA compount or atom involved in a chemical reaction.
ProductA compound formed by a chemial reaction.
