  1. Chapter 8Chemical Equations Objectives: Be able to identify chemical equations Write and balance chemical equations Describe the information given in any chemical equation Identify types of chemical equations Understand and describe the roles of heat in chemical reactions

  2. Chemical Reactions • A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are converted into new substances with different physical and chemical properties • Why do chemical reactions occur?

  3. The Chemical Equation • In a chemical reaction atoms are neither created nor destroyed. All atoms present in the reactants must also be present in the products. • Reactants: • Products: • Reactions involve

  4. The Chemical Equation • Word Equation: • “reacts with” • “yields” or “produces” • Example: Sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas to produce sodium chloride

  5. The Chemical Equation • Formula Equation (chemical equation): • Example: Sodium metal reacts with chlorine gas to produce sodium chloride

  6. The Chemical Equation • Magnesium reacts with nitrogen to produce magnesium nitride (remember diatomic molecules) • Silver (I) nitrate reacts with copper to form copper (II) nitrate and silver • When heated, calcium carbonate decomposes to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide • Ammonia reacts with hydrogen chloride to form ammonium chloride

  7. The Chemical Equation • Conditions required to carry out the reaction sometimes included • , etc. • Physical state of substances often included • (s) = • (l) = • (g) = • (aq) = • See table 8.1

  8. Writing and Balancing Equations • Equations must be BALANCED • Steps to follow: • Write a word equation for the reaction • Write the

  9. Writing and Balancing Equations • Balance the equation • Count and compare • Balance each element, one at a time, by placing whole numbers (coefficients) in front of the formulas • Check all other elements and make adjustments as needed • Do a final check – all atoms should be balanced

  10. Writing and Balancing Equations • Balance the following: Mg + N2 Mg3N2 AgNO3 + Cu  Cu(NO3)2 + Ag CaCO3  CaO + CO2 NH3 + HCl  NH4Cl

  11. What Information Does an Equation Tell Us? • What the • The • The number of molecules or formula units of reactants and products in the reaction • The number of • The number of

  12. What Information Does an Equation Tell Us? • P4O10 + 12HClO4 6Cl2O7 + 4H3PO4 • We will use this information in Chapter 9…

  13. Types of Chemical Equations • Reactions are classified based on how atoms or groups of atoms are rearranged during the reaction • Book lists 4 types • I want you to know 5 types

  14. Synthesis (Combination) Reaction • Two (or more) substances combine to form a new compound ** Only ONE product***

  15. Synthesis (Combination) Reaction • Metal + Oxygen  Metal oxide • Nonmetal + Oxygen  Nonmetal oxide • Metal + Nonmetal  Salt • Metal Oxide + Water  Metal hydroxide • Nonmetal Oxide + Water  Oxy-acid

  16. Decomposition Reaction • A single compound reacts to give two or more substances • Usually requires heat and/or a catalyst

  17. Decomposition Reaction • Metal Oxides. Some decompose to yield free metal plus oxygen; others given another oxide, and some resist decomposition by heating • Carbonates and hydrogen carbonates decompose to yield CO2 when heated • Miscellaneous reactions in this category:

  18. Single-Replacement Reaction • An element reacts with a compound displacing an element from it • If A is a metal, A will replace B to form AX, provided A is a more reactive metal than B • If Y is a halogen, it will replace X to form BY, provided Y is a more reactive halogen than C • Activity series can help make predictions • Table 8.2

  19. Single-Replacement Reaction • Metal + Acid  Hydrogen + Salt • Metal + Water  Hydrogen + metal hydroxide or metal oxide • Metal + Salt  Metal + Salt • Halogen + Halide Salt  Halogen + Halide Salt

  20. Single-Replacement Reactions • K, Ca, and Na • Mg, Al, Zn, and Fe • Ni, Sn, and Pb • Cu, Ag, Hg, and Au do not displace hydrogen

  21. Double-Replacement Reaction • Appears to involve the exchange of parts of the reactions • Ions of two compounds exchange places in an aqueous solution to form 2 new compounds • A precipitate (an insoluble solid compound formed during a reaction in solution) is often formed • Heat may be produced • Gas bubbles may be produced

  22. Double-Replacement Reaction • Neutralization of an acid and a base • Formation of a precipitate • Metal oxide + acid  salt + water (and heat)

  23. Double-Replacement Reaction • Formation of a gas • Gas can be produced indirectly

  24. Combustion Reactions • A reaction of a substance with oxygen, usually with the rapid release of heat to produce a flame • Organic compounds (with carbon) usually produce CO2 • If a compound contains hydrogen, water is a product

  25. 5 Types of Reactions • Identify each: • AX + BY  AY + BX • A + B  AB • A + BX  AX + B • AX  A + X • Hydrocarbon + O2  CO2 + H2O

  26. Heat in Chemical Reactions • Energy changes always accompany chemical reactions • Exothermic reactions • Endothermic reactions

  27. Heat in Chemical Reactions • Heat of Reaction • Activation energy • See figures 8.1 & 8.2
