The equilibrium that exists in a closed system when the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.

Card 8
Front
A diagram showing alternative routes between reactants and products that allows the indirect determination of an enthalpy change from other known enthalpy changes using Hess' law.

Card 9
Front
The process in mass spectronomy that causes a positive ion to split into pieces, one of which is a positive fragment ion.

Card 10
Front
The reaction of an alcohol with a carboxylic acid to produce an ester and water.

Card 11
Front
If a reaction can take place by more than one route and the initial and final conditions are the same, the total enthalpy change is the same for each route
Back
Card 12
Front
The catalysis of a reaction in which the catalyst has a different physical state from the reactants
Back
Card 13
Front
The breaking of a covalent bond with both of the bonded electrons going to one of the atoms, forming a cation and an anion.
Back
Card 14
Front
A reaction with water or aqueous hydroxide ions that breaks a chemical compound into two compounds.

Card 15
Front
When a system in dynamic equilibrium is subjected to a change, the position of equilibrium will shift to minimise the change.
