1. Unit 7: Chemical Equations Honors Chemistry

2. Evidence of a chemical reaction: A reaction has occurred if the chemical and physical properties of the reactants and products differ. heat light sound gas emitted color change odor For a reaction to occur, particles of reactants must collide, and with sufficient energy collision theory

3. activation energy: Chemical reactions release or absorb energy. energy needed to start a reaction exothermic reactions endothermic reactions The reaction in an oxy- acetylene torch is exothermic. Photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction.

4. catalyst: speeds up reaction wo /being consumed -- it lowers the activation energy (AE) AE timetime without catalystwith catalyst Examples: -- enzymes catalyze biochemical reactions -- catalytic converters convert CO into CO 2 Energy
