CHEMICAL EQUATIONS AND REACTIONS Unit 7 Packet - Page 2 of 15 Chemical Equation: represents with symbols and formulas the reactants and products Example: Reactants yields Products (many other words can be used here) Fe2O3 + 2 Al 2 Fe + Al2O3 Equations must: Represent known facts all reactants and products must be included Contain correct formulas Coefficients: numbers in front of compounds/elements Represents the number of moles Subscripts: numbers in the formulas They are never changed when balancing a chemical equation! Symbols used in equations are on your objective sheet! WRITING AND BALANCING EQUATIONS Diatomic molecules: Occur in pairs in their natural state (when they are alone and not ionic, not in compounds) Notice there are 7 of these and they make a 7 shape on the PT!!!!! Memorize!! (quiz): Writing & Balancing Equations l Diatomic molecules occur in pairs in their natural state (when they are alone; not in compounds) I 2, Br 2, Cl 2, F 2, O 2, N 2, H 2 (*Quiz*) I Bring Clay For Our New House or His Brown Clown Found No Oranges Inside
Unit 7 Packet - Page 3 of 15 When writing equations you must satisfy the law of conservation matter (matter can not be created or destroyed) Therefore we must have the same type and number of each atom on each side of the equation. BALANCING EQUATIONS: 1. Start with a word equation (or an unbalanced chemical equation) 2. If a word equation, convert to a formula equation (don t forget the diatomic molecules!) 3. Balance with coefficients: balance each atom one at a time balance polyatomic ions on each side of the equation as one unit balance H and O last (they often appear in more than one compound) 4. Check; if coefficients are not the lowest possible; reduce down. *****Remember NEVER change subscripts***** Examples: 1. P (s) + O2 (g) à P4O10 (s) 2. SO2 (g) + O2 (g) à SO3 (g) 3. Fe2O3 (s) + H2 (g) à Fe (s) + H2O (l)

AgNO3 (aq) + CaCl2 (aq) à Ca(NO3)2 (aq) + AgCl (s) also ( ) (contains polyatomic ions!) 5. liquid water breaks down into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas 6. methane gas + oxygen gas makes carbon dioxide gas + water vapor You try: 1. solid calcium oxide reacts with liquid bromine to make solid calcium bromide and oxygen gas 2. Ba(NO3)2 + PbO2 à BaO + Pb(NO3)4
