33
gives off heat to it's surroundings
exothermic
34
q<0
exothermic
35
w<0
exothermic
36

exothermic
37
work done by the system
exothermic

endothermic
42
wor done on the system
endothermic
43
states that change in enthalpy for any chemica reaction remains constant whether it occurs in one or several steps
Hess's Law
44
energy contained within the system
internal energy
45
sum of kinetic and potential energy of all components of the system
internal energy
46
denoted by "E"
internal energy
47
effect of temperature
increase in temperature causes reactant particles to move rapidly resulting to more collision
48
effect of concentration
when concentration increases, the frequency of collisions is increased and reaction is sped up
49
effect of particle size
tinier particles have greater surface area and provide much greater contact and effect more collision
50
effect of catalyst
substance that speeds up the reaction process
51
biological catalyst
enzyme
52
measured by a change in concentration of reactants and products per unit time
rates of reaction
53
rate of reaction remains the same regardless of an increase in the concentration of reactants
zero order reaction
54
r=k[A]⁰
zero order reaction
55
rate of reaction is directly proportional to the product of concentration of reactants raised to the first power

56
r=k[A]
first order reaction
57

activation energy
58
"Particles can only react if they collide with enough energy for the reaction to take place."
collision theory
59
ineffective collision
-not properly oriented -slow moving particles
60
effective collision
fast moving and correctly oriented
61
increase the rate of a chemical reaction
positive catalyst
62
