When one or more substances are changed into different substances a chemical reaction has occurred. • Reactants Products • Word equations use names of chemicals • Chemical equations use the chemical formulas
Example • Iron + sulphur iron (II) sulphide + energy • Fe (s) + S (s) FeS (s) + energy • NOTE: energy is released in this reaction and is therefore a product...sometimes more energy is absorbed and it is a reactant • States of matter are identified in brackets beside each chemical.
(s) = solid • (l) = liquid • (g) = gas • (aq) = aqueous • Another example: • Fe (s) + CuSO4 (aq) FeSO4 (aq) + Cu (s) + energy

Matter and mass can not be created nor can it be destroyed • The mass of the reactants is equal to mass of the products
Counting Atoms • subscripts indicate the number of atoms for the element preceding it • Ex. CaF2 has 1 calcium atom and 2 Fluorine atoms • Coefficients in front of a molecule indicate that number of molecules • Ex. 4H2O is 4 molecules of water: therefore there are 8 hydrogen and 4 oxygen atoms • Polyatomic ions can be counted together (do not separate the elements • Ex. Fe(NO3)3 there are 3 nitrates with iron: therefore there are 1 iron atom, and 3 nitrate ions
Balancing • Count atoms on the left and then the right • For elements which are not balanced you may use COEFFICIENTS ONLY and not change the subscripts on any of the molecules
Example: Ca + O2 CaO • Ca = 1 Ca = 1 • O = 2 O = 1 • Calcium is balanced however the Oxygen is not...place a 2 in front of CaO. • Ca + O2 2CaO • Oxygen is now balanced with 2 on each side however now there are 2 Calcium atoms on the right...so that means there are 2 on the left. • Balanced equation is • 2Ca + O2 2CaO
Synthesis • Elements react and combine to form a new compound: • A + B AB • Example: Iron + Oxygen • Fe + O2 Fe2O3 • Balanced??? 4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3 • Example: H2 + O2 H2O • Balanced?? 2H2 + O2 2H2O
Decomposition • Molecules are broken down into smaller molecules or individual elements • AB A + B • Example: hydrogen peroxide • H2O2 H2O + O2 • Balanced???? 2H2O2 2H2O + O2

Single Displacement • Exchange of an ion with an ion from another compound • A + BX B + AX element A has displaced element B from the compound BX • Example: Fe + CuCl2 Cu + FeCl2 • In the reaction Iron displaces the copper from the copper chloride in solution...recall in this reaction the iron turns copper in colour and the blue solution turns clear (due to the iron (II) chloride now in solution).
Double Displacement • The exchange of ions between two different compounds...often produces a solid precipitate • AX + BY BX + AY in this equation cations A and B have displaced each other • Example: • Fe(NO3)3 + NaSCN Fe(SCN)3 + NaNO3 • Recall in the above reaction two clear solutions resulted in a dark red precipitate being produced (the sodium thiocyanate)

Combustion • reactions with oxygen to produce oxides • Fuel + oxygen oxide + energy • Energy produced is mainly heat and light • Most fuels are hydrocarbons which also produce water vapour and as a byproduct • Complete combustion • Propane + oxygen carbon dioxide + water • 2C3H8 + 7O2 4CO2 + 6H2O • NOTE: every carbon from the hydrocarbon is converted into carbon dioxide
Incomplete Combustion: • When there is not enough oxygen • Carbon monoxide (poisonous gas) and carbon (soot) are also produced • Example: • 2C2H6 + O2 CO2 + 2CO + C + 6H2O • Other Combustion reactions: elements will also react to produce oxides. • Example: magnesium burns to produce magnesium oxide similar to carbon producing carbon dioxide • 2Mg + O2 2MgO • ** combustion of elements are synthesis reactions

Acids • Are sour tasting, water soluble and highly reactive • conduct electricity due to ionic properties • HCl - H+ and Cl- ions • Common acids are recognized from the H at the beginning of chemical formulas • HCl (hydrochloric acid), H2CO3 (carbonic acid), H2SO4 (sulfuric acid)
Bases • Are bitter tasting, water soluble and feel slippery to the touch in solution • Also good conductors of electricity due t ionic nature • Most bases are recognized from the hydroxide in the formula • NaOH (sodium hydroxide), KOH (potassium hydroxide)
pH • 0 -----------------------7---------------------------14 • High H+ Equal OH- and H+ High OH- neutral weak acid Weak Base Very strong base Very strong acid
pH scale is logarithmic • Each change in 1 pH is equivalent to 10X difference in strength • Example a pH of 3 is 10x more acidic than an acid with pH of 4...and an acid with pH 3 would be 1000X more acidic than an acid with pH of 6 • Similarly a base with pH of 9 is 10x stronger than a base with pH of 8 • note that for bases the strength increases with higher pH...whereas acid strength increases with lower pH
Neutralization • HCl + NaCl NaCl + HOH • H2CO3 + KOH K2CO3 + HOH • Acid + Base Salt + Water
