Ch. 11 Chemical Reactions Review

Chemical reactions...

• occur only in living organisms.
• create and destroy atoms
• only occur outside living organisms
• produce new substances. 

When the symbol Δ is placed over the yields sign in a chemical reaction it means...?

• Heat is supplied to the reaction
• a catalyst is needed
• yields 
• precipitate

Chemical equations...

• describe chemical reactions
• show how to write chemical formulas
• give directions for naming chemical compounds
• describe only biological changes

Symbols used in equations, together with the explanations of the symbols. are shown below. Which set is correct?

• (g) grams
• (l) liters
• (aq) dissolved in water
• (s) solid product

In the chemical equation

• a gas is formed by the reaction
• the reaction is reversible 

A catalyst is 

• the product of a combustion reaction
• not used up in a reaction
• on of the reactants in single-replacement reactions
• a solid product of a reaction
