Down
- 1. an acid which most of its molecules release hydrogen ions into solution
- 2. a strong acid readily releases a hydrogen ion in a chemical reaction; can also be used to describe the bond between different atoms
- 3. a reaction in which an acid and a base combine to produce a metal salt and water
- 4. a small molecule from which polymers are made
- 5. a molecule that contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms
- 7. a reaction that involves the combination of oxygen with a fuel or metal
- 8. a small number of active molecules (such as acid) in a solution
- 9. rate how fast or slow a reaction proceeds
- 11. an insoluble compound formed in a precipitation reaction
- 13. a long-chain molecule formed by the joining of many smaller repeating molecules (monomers)
- 14. a mixture of solute dissolved in a solvent such as water
- 15. a reaction that involves the building up of compounds by combining simpler,normally elements
- 17. process of joining smaller units(monomers) to form a long-chain molecule (polymer)
- 19. an ion that does not take part in a chemical reaction
