Anion - correct answer negative ion, element ends in -ide
isotope - correct answer atom of an element that has a different mass because of a
different number of neutrons, but same atomic number
Atomic Number - correct answer total number of protons in an atom; also indicates
number of electrons

endothermic reaction - correct answer A reaction that ABSORBS energy in the form of
heat
6.022 x 10^23 particles - correct answer How many particles/atoms/molecules are in
a mole?
Amount of area exposed for the reaction of a solid - correct answer Surface area
impacts rate of reaction how?
increase the # of reactants in the container, more collisions occur w/enough energy &
proper orientation - correct answer Concentration impacts rate of reaction how?
Higher temperature....more motion....more forceful or higher energy collisions -
correct answer Temperature impacts rate of reaction how?
Boyle's Law - correct answer pressure increases, volume decreases
pV = constant or p1V1 = p2V2
Charles' Law - correct answer Volume goes up, then temperature goes up, pressure
remains the same
