Chemistry C3

?
Why is graphite a good lubricant?
It has layers of carbon particles. These layers slide over each other.
1 of 10
Give 3 examples of exothermic reactions.
Combustion, respiration, burning & reactions between metals and acids.
2 of 10
What does 'exothermic' mean?
A reaction which lets our heat.
3 of 10
Give 3 examples of carbon structures.
Carbon-60 (buckminster fullerine/C60), diamonds & graphite.
4 of 10
What is batch production?
Production in small amounts.
5 of 10
How do you work out percentage yield?
actual yield/predicted yield X 100
6 of 10
Why does increasing concentration increase reaction rates?
There are more particles in the same volume and that means an increaed success rate.
7 of 10
Why does increasing the temperature increase reaction rates?
The heat gives particles more energy which means particles move faster and therefore have an increased rate of successful collisions.
8 of 10
Why does using powders instead of small solids increase reaction rates?
The powder has a larger surface area which means more particles are exposed and ready to react.
9 of 10
What are allotropes?
Different structures of the same particles.
