| A | B |
| chemical bond | force that holds two atoms together |
| exergonic reaction | reactions that release energy |
| exothermic reaction | thermal energy released |
| endergonic reaction | needs more energy for reaction |
| endothermic reaction | needs thermal energy for reaction |
| pressure | force acting on unit area of surface |
| reaction rate | speed at which reactants change into product |
| collision model | states that atoms, ions, & molecules must collide to react |
| catalyst | speeds up reaction |
| inhibitor | slows down reaction |
| reversible reaction | one that occur in forward & reverse directions |
| equilibrium | states that forward & reverse reactions or process are at same rate |
| Le Chatelieer's principle | stress applied to equilibrium process, causes opposite shift |
