A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4

4. Balance this equation:

__Li + Cl2 → __ LiCl

A. 2Li + Cl2 → 4LiCl2

B. 2Li + Cl2 → LiCl2

1
 C. 2Li + Cl2 → 2LiCl
D. 3Li+Cl2→2ClLi

5. At the end of chemical reactions, what is the total mass of the reactants
compared to the total mass of the products?

A. the product is doubled

B. the product is half the mass of the reactants
C. the mass is the same
D. the mass changes depending on the reaction

6. The substances made during the chemical reaction are called ________
A. reactants
B. solution
C. products
D. problem

7. In the reaction methane + oxygen turns into carbon dioxide + water, the
methane and oxygen are called _______________.

A. reactants
B. products
C. neutralizers
D. catalysts

8. In any chemical reaction, if the mass of the products is less, then it

means:

A. A gas is produced.
B. There is error in the experiment carried out.
C. oxygen is added.
D. none of the above.

9. Which statement about catalysts in chemical reactions is not correct?

A .Catalysts are not used up in the reaction.
B Catalysts increase the energy of the reacting particles.
C Catalysts increase the rate of the reaction.
D Catalysts lower the activation energy

10.Which row explains why increasing temperature increases the rate of

reaction?
A

Descriptive questions:

1. A student investigated the rate of reaction between zinc and dilute

sulfuric acid:
Zn(s) + H2SO4(aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + H2(g)
Write the word equation for the above reaction.

Zinc + Hydrogen sulfate → Zinc sulfate + Hydrogen

2. Reactions can occur when particles collide. Rates of reactions can be

altered by changing conditions.
Explain how the rate of reaction between a solid and a liquid is altered by
reducing the size of the pieces of solid and by increasing the temperature
of the liquid.

Turning solids into smaller/tiny parts could increase the speed of a

reaction. Heating liquids speeds the process of the reaction.

3. When solid ammonium chloride is shaken with water, a colorless solution

forms and the temperature changes from 20°C to 16°C.
Give the name of the type of heat change occurring.

Endothermic reaction

 4. Catalytic converters in the exhaust systems of cars contain catalysts.
Explain what is meant by the term catalyst.

A substance that changes the rate of a reaction without being used up

5. Balance each of the following equations:

i) CaO + HCl → CaCl2 + H2O

CaO+2hCl→ CaCl2+H2O

ii) Al + 3O2 → Al2O3

iii) C3H8 + 5O2 → CO2 + H2O

C3H8+5O2→3CO2+4H2O

iv) CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

balanced

v) C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

balanced
