Across
- 3. Type of reaction where a single reactant breaks down into two or more simpler products.
- 8. A symbolic representation of a chemical reaction using formulas and symbols.
- 9. Type of reaction where one element replaces another in a compound.
- 10. A small number written below an element symbol indicating the number of atoms in a molecule (e.g., the "₂" in H₂O).
- 11. A number placed in front of a chemical formula to balance the equation.
- 12. A chemical equation that shows the formulas of reactants and products but is not balanced.
- 13. Type of reaction where two or more reactants combine to form a single product.
Down
- 1. The starting substances in a chemical reaction, found on the left side of the equation.
- 2. Type of reaction where two compounds exchange elements to form two new compounds.
- 4. The substances formed in a chemical reaction, found on the right side of the equation.
- 5. A chemical equation where the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides, ensuring the law of conservation of mass is followed.
- 6. Type of reaction where a substance (usually a hydrocarbon) reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
- 7. A representation of a substance using chemical symbols and numbers (e.g., H₂O, CO₂).
- 8. The one or two-letter abbreviation for an element (e.g., H for hydrogen, O for oxygen).
