Flashcards

Refraction

The bending of light as it passes from one medium to another, such as from air to water. This occurs because the speed of light changes in different mediums.

Neutralization Reaction

A chemical reaction where an acid and a base react to form salt and water. It is characterized by the release of heat and a pH change.

Synthesis Reaction

A type of chemical reaction where two or more substances combine to form a single, more complex product.

Decomposition Reaction

A type of chemical reaction where a single compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances.
