- Chemical reactions usually cause a change in temperature.
- Chemical reactions you should know are:
Key Stage 3
Meaning
A Chemical Reaction is when the atoms in molecules break their bonds and form new bonds, usually with other atoms.
About Chemical Reactions
- Most chemical reactions are irreversible.
- In a chemical reaction the atoms rearrange to form a new substance.
- Chemical reactions often need some energy to start, like combustion where the fuel needs to be heated to start.
- If a chemical reaction gives off more energy than it needs to start then it is called an Exothermic Reaction. In these reactions the temperature increases.
- If a chemical reaction takes in more energy than it gives out then it is called an Endothermic Reaction.
In these reactions the temperature decreases.
