SKILLBUILDER 7.1 Evidence of a Chemical Reaction FOR MORE PRACTICE Example 7.16; Problems 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34. Which of the following is a chemical reaction? Why? (a) butane burning in a butane lighter (b) butane evaporating out of a butane lighter (c) wood burning (d) dry ice subliming EXAMPLE 7.1 Evidence of a Chemical Reaction Which of the following is a chemical reaction? Why? (a) ice melting upon warming (b) an electric current is passed through water, resulting in the formation of hydrogen and oxygen gas that appear as bubbles rising in the water (c) iron rusting (d) bubbles forming when a soda can is opened Solution: (a) Not a chemical reaction; melting ice forms water, but both the ice and water are composed of water molecules. (b) Chemical reaction; water decomposes into hydrogen and oxygen, as evidenced by the bubbling. (c) Chemical reaction; iron changes into iron oxide, changing color in the process. (d) Not a chemical reaction; even though there is bubbling, it is just carbon dioxide coming out of the liquid.

Write a balanced equation for the combustion of liquid octane (C8H18), a component of gasoline, in which it combines with gaseous oxygen to form gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water. 1.Write a skeletal equation by writing chemical formulas for each of the reactants and products. Review Chapter 5 for nomenclature rules. (If a skeletal equation is provided, skip this step and go to Step 2.) 2.If an element occurs in only one compound on both sides of the equation, balance it first.

Solution: EXAMPLE 7.4 Balancing Chemical Equations Write a balanced equation for the reaction of solid aluminum with aqueous sulfuric acid to form aqueous aluminum sulfate and hydrogen gas. Use your knowledge of chemical nomenclature from Chapter 5 to write a skeletal equation containing formulas for each of the reactants and products. The formulas for each compound MUST BE CORRECT before you begin to balance the equation. Since both aluminum and hydrogen occur as pure elements, balance those last. Sulfur and oxygen occur in only one compound on each side of the equation, so balance these first. Sulfur and oxygen are also part of a polyatomic ion that stays intact on both sides of the equation. Balance polyatomic ions such as these as a unit. There are 3 SO42– ions on the right side of the equation, so put a 3 in front of H2SO4.
EXAMPLE 7.4 Balancing Chemical Equations Continued Balance Al next. Since there are 2 Al atoms on the right side of the equation, place a 2 in front of Al on the left side of the equation. Balance H next. Since there are 6 H atoms on the left side, place a 3 in front of on the right side. Finally, sum the number of atoms on each side to make sure that the equation is balanced. The equation is balanced.

Balance the following chemical equation. Solution: EXAMPLE 7.5 Balancing Chemical Equations Since Cl occurs in only one compound on each side of the equation, balance it first. There is 1 Cl atom on the left side of the equation and 3 Cl atoms on the right side. Balance Cl by placing a 3 in front of HCl. Since H and Fe occur as free elements, balance them last. There is 1 Fe atom on the left side of the equation and 1 Fe atom on the right, so Fe is balanced. There are 3 H atoms on the left and 2 H atoms on the right. Balance H by placing a 3/2 in front of H2. (That way you don’t alter other elements that are already balanced.) Since the equation now contains a coefficient fraction, clear it by multiplying the entire equation (both sides) by 2.
