Chemistry 130 Final Examination Review Sheet
This review sheet contains an alphabetical list of chemical terms, keywords, and equations used or discussed in
Chemistry 130.
For each term or keyword, you should be able to write a few sentences about the topic and its relationships to
other topics in the same area.
For each equation, you should be able to identify the equation—by name, if it has one—and all terms with units,
and be able to solve the equation algebraically for any single term.
