Chemistry (definitions)

O. K. This is just a chemistry quiz that I did mainly for myself so that I would have something to study off of. It is a 12th grade chemistry test so just warning you that you may not know all of the definitions given to you.. But I tried to give the easier ones!!!

Its all definitions but it is multiple choice. Not too hard if you know the material. Its mostly about oxidation, reduction, and electrolysis, but they are challenging... Anyway good luck to you and congratulations on what ever score you will get!!!
