Questions and Answers

What happens when hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are mixed together without a spark?

Nothing much happens.

What is stoichiometry concerned with when looking at a chemical equation?

The number of atoms in the equation and the balance of substances needed for the reaction.

How do chemists measure heat, and what are heat sources and heat sinks?

Chemists measure heat in units called Joules. Heat sources have higher temperatures than the surrounding area, while heat sinks have lower temperatures.

Where is the energy stored when you burn a piece of wood, and how is it related to the Sun?

<p>The energy released when burning a piece of wood comes from the chemical bonds in the wood, which originally stored the Sun's energy through photosynthesis.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Explain the collision theory in relation to rates of reaction.

<p>The collision theory states that as more collisions in a system occur, there will be more combinations of molecules bouncing into each other, leading to a higher chance of completing the reaction and an increase in the reaction rate.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How does the concentration of essential elements or compounds affect the rate of a reaction?

<p>Low concentrations of essential elements or compounds result in slower reactions.</p> Signup and view all the answers
