What is a chemical reaction?

A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemical substances to another.

What is a chemical equation?

A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulae.

What are reactants in a chemical reaction?

Reactants are the substances that participate in a chemical reaction and are written on the left side of the chemical equation.

What are products in a chemical reaction?

Products are the substances formed as a result of a chemical reaction and are written on the right side of the chemical equation.

What is a balanced chemical equation?

A balanced chemical equation has an equal number of atoms of each element on both the left and right sides of the equation.

What happens to atoms during a chemical reaction?

Atoms are rearranged during a chemical reaction, but no atoms are created or destroyed.

What are the types of chemical reactions?

The types of chemical reactions include synthesis, decomposition, combustion, single displacement, double displacement, and redox reactions.

What is a synthesis reaction?

A synthesis reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which multiple reactants combine to form a single product.

What is a decomposition reaction?

A decomposition reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which a compound breaks down into simpler substances.

What is a combustion reaction?

A combustion reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen to produce heat and light.

What is a single displacement reaction?

A single displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which an element replaces another element in a compound.

What is a double displacement reaction?

A double displacement reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which the positive ions of two ionic compounds interchange.

What is a redox reaction?

A redox reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between species.

What is the law of conservation of mass?

The law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

What are the factors that affect the rate of a chemical reaction?

The factors that affect the rate of a chemical reaction include temperature, concentration, surface area, catalysts, and inhibitors.
