Chemical Reaction is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance‚ as opposed to a change in physical form or a nuclear reaction. Reactant is a substance participating in a chemical reaction‚ especially a directly reacting substance present at the initiation of the reaction. A word equation is an equation where only the words of the products and reactants are given. It is used to describe chemical reactions using words. A skeletal equation is a chemical

Properties of Water Water is essential for life as we know it on earth. It is used by plants and animals for basic biological processes which would be impossible without the use of water. The origin of all life can be traced back to the water in the Earth’s precambrien seas. Water is also the universal solvent. It reacts with more elements and compounds than any other substance known to man. Water is a polar molecule made up of on atom of hydrogen and two atoms of oxygen. It is attracted

Experiment #17 Classification of Chemical Substances Prepared for: Dr. Robert O’Reilly By: Kudaibergenov Baizak 20.11.2013 Nazarbayev University Introduction While many thousands of substances are known‚ they can be classified into a few simple categories based on type of bonding that exists among the atoms in the substance. Bonds are chemical forces that hold atoms together to form molecules or compounds. These categories are ionic‚ molecular and metallic substances.

Although organic reactions have been conducted by man since the discovery of fire‚ the science of Organic chemistry did not develop until the turn of the eighteenth century‚ mainly in France at first‚ then in Germany‚ later on in England. By far the largest variety of materials that bombard us are made up of organic elements. The beginning of the Ninetieth

Cheyenne Kenny September 29‚ 2014. Biology Properties Of Water Adhesion How does temperature change affect surface tension? As the temperature of a liquid increases‚ its surface tension decreases. When water heats up‚ the movement of its molecules disrupts the imbalanced forces on the surface of the water and weakens its sheet-like barrier of tightly bound molecules‚ thereby lowering the surface tension. This is why hot water is more effective when cleaning; its low surface

The notion of the atom all stared about 450 BC when a Greek scholar starting think when can something break on more‚ when are the pieces at their smallest‚ this mans name was Leucippus. Leucippus also had pupil who also thought the same way as Leucippus‚ his name was Democritus. They developed there ideas and when Democritus died his theory summed up briefly was that everything in the world was made of tiny pieced that could not be broken up any more. That how the word atom was derived from the Greek

life because living organisms use water as the medium (solvent) for chemical reactions necessary to sustain life. Water also helps maintain temperatures. Droughts are disastrous because they can wipe out crops‚ which in turn cause famine. 2. MATTER: Composed of chemical elements‚ occupies space and has mass (ex: solid‚ liquid‚ and gas states.) CHEMICAL ELEMENTS: substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by chemical reactions (ex: carbon‚ oxygen‚ gold). COMPOUNDS: Substances that

envy. The public is constantly bombarded with the idea that organic products are better. Perhaps this is true‚ but maybe it is brilliant marketing simply selling a status symbol. Envy can come from a neighbor’s luscious‚ organically grown front yard to the hybrid vehicle a co-worker drives‚ to the organic foods that consumers in a higher financial echelon seem to be able to only afford. Is this envy justifiable or is the notion of organics and its superiority a tactic of propaganda to boost the already

Development Structure of Atoms The structure of atoms developed throughout time since 410 BCE to now. “Leucippus of Miletus (ca. 435 BCE) and Democritus of Abdera (ca. 410 BCE) developed the atomic hypothesis.” Their Theory was that the world is made up of atoms moving around in empty space‚ also in continuous motion and constantly colliding into each other. The ancient Greek philosophers were the first people to have the theory of atoms and no one continued their theory until early 1803 which
