Lattice - structure of ionic and metallic
Titration - to find the concentration of an unknown solution
Standard solution - a solution of accurately known concentration
pH indicator - identify the end-point of the experiment (titration)
Concordant - results with values within 0.2 of each other.
Pipette - accurate volumetric measurement.
unsaturation - contains C=C (decolourise Br2 water)
precipitation reaction - a solid is formed
Homologous Series - same general formula, similar chemical properties
Isomer - same molecular formula, different structure
isotope - same atomic number, different mass number
Making a salt:
add the insoluble base (carbonate) to the acid, until it stops fizzing
Filtration
evaporation
Addition reactions of alkene
hydrogenation (adding H2 to make alkane)
hydration (adding water to make alcohol)
halogenation (adding a halogen)
Reactions of alcohol
dehydration (remove water to make an alkene)
