Explain how a chemical reaction occurs using the following terms Reactant
Product
Activation energy
Bond
Endothermic
Exothermic
Rate

For a chemical reaction to occur, activation energy is required. Using the activation energy, reactants form products by breaking bonds which require energy. This type of reaction is an endothermic reaction. When products are formed, bonds are formed back by releasing energy. This type of reaction is an exothermic reaction. When activation energy is used for a reaction, a catalyst is not required. Adding a catalyst to the reaction causes the rate of reaction to increase.

The speed of  sound:   sound travels  at different speeds depending on what it istraveling through. of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid)  sound waves travel the slowest through  gases, faster  through  liquids, and fastest  through  solids.
