It takes too long to use words and word equations don t tell us how many atoms are involved. Cu 2 CO 3(s) + H 2 O (l) CO 2(g) + 2 CuOH (aq) 1 Gu 2016
The Law of Conservation of Mass:. All chemical equations must be. Cu 2 CO 3(s) + H 2 O (l) CO 2(g) + 2 CuOH (aq) Element Reactants Products Critical thinking: Fred just learned about the law of conservation of mass and wanted to test it for himself. He found a chemical reaction to use to investigate. He reacts 25 g of reactant X with 5 g of reactant Y. The reaction turned purple, became hot, and he saw some steam. When Fred weighed the products, he found that it weighed only 20 g. Fred decided that his Science teacher was wrong. Rules for writing balanced equations: 1. Coefficients must be whole numbers (no decimals) 2. Never change subscripts 3. Simplify coefficients if you can Tips for success 1. Balance metals first 2. Balance H last 2 Gu 2016

2.3 What are Acids and Bases? (WB P.87 88) Acids Bases Where do we find them? Properties Chemical Formula taste will corrode rocks, metals, your skin conductive contains the H + is bonded to an anion and is usually the first one written in the chemical formula taste, is will corrode your skin conductive contains the OH is bonded to a cation and is usually the last one written in the chemical formula. When Mixed with Water ph HCl H + + Cl The more H + an acid releases, the stronger the acid NaOH Na + + OH The more OH a base releases, the stronger the base Practice: Identify if the following compounds are acids, bases, or neither (not acid, not base). Acid Base Neither HCl NaOH HF H 2 O 2 Mg(OH) 2 H 2 SO 4 SiH 4 HNO 3 C 2 H 4 H 2 6 Gu 2016
2.4 What is ph? (WB P.84 85, 87 88) ph is what we use to measure how acidic or how basic a solution is. It is a measure of how much there is in solution, or its concentration. VERY ACIDIC VERY BASIC ACIDIC solution BASIC solution NEUTRAL solution H + OH H + H + H + OH H + OH H + OH OH H + H + H + OH OH H + OH OH OH H + H + OH OH H + OH 7 Gu 2016
Water is actually slightly ionic. It will break down to H + and OH. About 1 in 1 million water molecules will do this. Can you see why water is neutral? So, what do the numbers on the ph scale actually mean? Every 1 ph change = 10x Practice: Calculate the relative acidity of solutions. 1. How much more acidic are tomatoes than eggs? 2. How much more acidic is soap than bleach? 3. How much more acidic is lemon than water? 8 Gu 2016
