May 5 9:33 AM Chemical Reaction Na2O + H2O 2Na(OH) reactants yield products arrow A chemical reaction is the process by which one or more substances change into one or more new substances. Reactants are the original substances in a chemical reaction. Products are the substances that are created in a chemical reaction. Apr 2 4:23 PM 3
Characteristics of Chemical Equations Equation that represents a reaction (RXN) 1. The equation must represent the known facts All reactants and products must be identified by either experiment in the lab or from resources that report the results Apr 2 4:23 PM Characteristics of Chemical Equations, cont'd 2. The equation must contain the correct formulas This will include subscripts and correct chemical symbols following the procedures and rules in chapter 7. Mar 31 7:51 AM 4
Characteristics of Chemical Equations, con't 3. The law of conservation of mass must be obeyed This will involve balancing the number of atoms of each element on either side of the equation through the use of coefficients 4. All physical states must be identified Mar 31 7:51 AM Word and Word Equations The first step: Identify the facts What are the elements and compounds involved? What are the products?

Example: Describe, with words, combustion of methane gas with oxygen gas The combustion of methane gas produces water vapor and carbon dioxide gas Our word equation is: methane + oxygen carbon dioxide ( ) + water vapor () his is read: methane and oxygen react to yield carbon dioxide gas and water vapor Mar 2 12:13 PM The next step is to replace the words with the correctly written formulas Our word equation is: methane (g) + oxygen (g) carbon dioxide ( ) + water vapor () We know: methane: CH 4 Oxygen: O 2 Carbon Dioxide: CO 2 Water: H 2O CH 4 (g) +O 2 (g) CO 2 (g) + H 2 O ( ) Mar 2 12:16 PM 6
CH 4 (g) +O not completely 2 (g) CO 2 (g) + H 2 O(g) done!! it isn't balanced! We must obey the law of conservation of mass which states: CH 4 (g) +O 2 (g) CO 2 (g) + H 2 O(g) Mar 2 12:20 PM What do the coefficients in a chemical equation mean?. Ratio of molecules, atoms, or moles of the substances in a reaction Mar 2 1:33 PM 7
Balancing Chemical Equations The law of conservation of mass means that the number of atoms for each element on the left side of the equation (reactants) equal the number on the right (products). lets take a look at this process... Mar 31 7:55 AM Here is a description of how hydrogen and oxygen make water: Hydrogen (gas) + Oxygen (gas) gives us water vapor (gas) H O + O first problem: we know that hydrogen and oxygen are molecules... H H Mar 31 9:25 AM 8
diatomic, so we adjust the equation: H O 2 + 2 O H H next problem: count up the Number of atoms on each side of the arrow: Mar 31 9:29 AM H O 2 + 2 O H H H: 2 O: 2 oxygen is not balanced BUT H: 2 O: 1 once the correct formulas are written, changing the subscript changes the substance, so we can't do that (H 2O 2 is not water vapor, it is hydrogen peroxide!)

Synthesis Reactions Also known as "Composition Reactions" 2 or more substances combine to form a new compound General form: A + X AX *where A and X may be elements or compounds & *AX is a compound Apr 16 4:30 PM a) elements + oxygen will yield an oxide of the element almost all metals react with oxygen to form metal oxides Group I elements will form oxides of the general formula M 2 O, where M represents a metal from group I ex.1: 4Li +O 2 2Li 2 O Group II elements will form oxides of the general formula: MO, where the M represents a metal from group II. ex. 2: 2Mg + O 2 2MgO Apr 16 10:02 PM 19

Next: displacement reactions displacement: replace one thing by moving it and replacing with another Apr 23 2:35 PM Single displacement reactions 4 basic categories: Displacement of a metal in a compound by another metal Displacement of hydrogen in water by a metal displacement of hydrogen in an acid by a metal displacement of halogens A + BX AX +B Y + BX BY + X Anions do not displace cations A, B, X, Y are elements; AX, BX, BY are compounds Apr 21 7:30 PM 24
Double Displacement AX + BY AY + BX X and Y switch places Note You must start and end with: cation anion / cation anion Apr 23 2:51 PM In double displacement reactions, the ions of 2 compounds switch places a. Formation of a Precipitate When the cations of one reactant combine with the anions of another reactant insoluble or slightly soluble compound is form. 2KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(aq) The precipitate forms as a result of the very strong attractive forces between the Pb 2+ cations and the I - anions.

Apr 27 12:41 PM Is there only one reactant? Summary flow chart: if yes decomposition reaction NO? are the reactants if yes 2 simple elements or 2 simple compounds that combine to make a more complex substance?? synthesis reaction NO? NO? Are the reactants oxygen and a hydrocarbon or oxygen and hydrogen if yes combustion reaction Are the reactants two compounds composed of ions? if yes double displacement NO? Are the reactants one compound and one element NO? You have missed a clue, go back to step one and try again if yes single displacement Apr 27 12:41 PM 27
