[Dreamerish*~]

let's play a chemistry game
you have to name a chem term and explain what it means. the term must start with the last letter of the previous term posted by the previous person.
obviously i will start...

acidic oxide a non-metal oxide that releases H⁺ ions in solution.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Hey hey!! A chemistry game!! Right, assuming I have to start with and "e"...
Endpoint: The point in a titration where the indicator changes colour

 

[SmileyCam]

Transuranic: an element that has an atomic number greater than 92, all of which are unstable

weeeeeeeee, fun and learning, it's like math, (I like math)

 

[firehose]

Coordinate Bond A covalent bond where one atom provides both electrons to form bonding pair

 

[xiao1985]

dehydration requires concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst =p

=p harder than it looks =S

 

[Emma-Jayde]

non-electrolyte: A compund that doesn't ionize when dissolved in water

weeeeeeeee, fun and learning, it's like math, (I like math)

Yeah for maths!!!

Eutrophication - the cyclic emergence of algal blooms in bodies of water

Hmmmm.... the plot thinckens....

 

[Dreamerish*~]

neutralisation = the reaction between acids and bases to form salt and water.

hehe, easy one

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Nucleon: Collective term for protons and neutrons

 

[velox]

Nucleus: The centre of the atom, which is very dense.

 

[SmileyCam]

s, s, s, s, ummmm....
scitillation counter: device that measures the fluorescence of a substance that is excited by radiation

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Salt: an ionic compound composed of cations and anions other than hydroxide or oxide ions

 

[velox]

Saturated Compound: An organic compound containing only single bonds

 

[SmileyCam]

geez u guys r too fast, lets take turns
Emma, velox, then me

Distillation: process by which ethanol and water can be seperated

 

[velox]

Solvent: The liquid in which a solute dissolves to form a solution.

dry cell = also called lechlanche cell, consists of a zinc anode and copper cathode. non rechargeable. first portable battery.

 

[velox]

Neutron : One of the particles found in all atoms bar hydrogen.

 

[Will Hunting]

Detonation - An extremely rapid form of spontaneous combustion resulting in a local explosion

I'm surprised you guys aren't going for the periodic table yet! Everything from A-Z can be found, there

 

[velox]

Latent Heat - The energy absorbed or released during a change of state.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

titration: method of determining the concentration of a solution by adding a solution of a reactant to a solution of sample until an indicator changes color
