Types of Chemical Reactions
Predicting Products of Chemical Reactions
Mr. Lee says: The Activity (Reactivity) Series allows us to see which elements are "stronger" or more reactive, and that can replace other elements in reactions. The higher an element is on the chart, the more reactive it is. This means it is likely able to "kick out" an element that is in a compound. We see this clearly with single replacement reactions.
Adding pure magnesium to a solution of HCl will produce a single-replacement reaction (giving magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas) because Mg is more reactive than H, so Mg will kick H out of the compound, and take its place. |

Gas Laws & Pressure
. Pressure and Volume: Boyle's Law (constant temperature) (Tyler DeWitt)
The term for constant temperature is isothermic. Iso- means "same" or "one" and -thermic means temperature. The animation to the left represents Boyle's Law. For a gas, the relationship between P and V is inverse. |
Volume and Temperature: Charles' Law (constant pressure) (Tyler DeWitt)
The term for constant pressure is isobaric. -baric means pressure. The animation to the left represents Charles' Law. For a gas, the relationship between V and T is direct. |
Pressure and Temperature: Guy-Lussac's Law (constant volume) (Tyler DeWitt)
The term for constant volume is isovolumetric. The animation to the left represents Gay-Lussac's law. For a gas, the relationship is direct between P and T. |

Gas Density
Density of a Gas at STP
Calculating the density of a gas at STP is simple: Divide the molar mass of the gas by 22.4.
