Term
|
Definition
| inverse relationship between volume and pressure |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| when the forward rate of a chemical reaction is the same as the reverse rate. This only takes place in reversible reactions because these are the only type of reaction in which the forward and backward reactions can both take place. |

Definition
| when a substance loses electrons. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| compound that turns different colors at different pH values. We generally like to have the color change at a pH of around seven because that's where the equivalence point of a titration is. |

Term
|
Definition
| time required for half of the radioactive atoms in a sample to decay. When talking about chemical reactions, it's the amount of time required to make half the reagent react. |

Definition
Ionic crystal is immersed in a solvent
Ions become solvated and break away from the crystal
The crystal is completly broken apart as all of the ions become solvated, and a solution of solvated (aqueous) ions results |
