  2. Standard 3a Students will know how to describe chemical reactions by writing properly balanced equations.

  3. Essential Question • Describe the 5 different types of chemical reactions that are in chemistry.

  4. Chemical ReactionsProducts and Reactants • Write compounds to react on left and compounds produced on the right. • Remember, reactants react to produce products Read as “yields”

  5. Symbols and Notation • (s) – compound is a solid • (l) – compound is a liquid • (g) – compound is a gas • (aq) – aqueous (dissolved in water, exists as ions) • ↓ - a precipitate has formed • (solid falling out of the reaction) • ↑ - a gas is evolved • (bubbling out of the reaction) • Various things can be put over the “yields” sign (→) to indicate special conditions.

  6. Reaction Types • There are five basic reaction types: • Composition or Synthesis • two or more reactants produce a single product. • Decomposition • a single reactant breaks down into its parts. • Combustion • rxn between oxygen and a reactant:

  7. Reaction Types • Single Displacement or Single Replacement • One ion kicks one of the ions in the pair out. • Double Displacement or Double Replacement • Ion pairs switch places (partners). • You must have a positive ion-negative ion pair in each position. Never a + to + or a – to - .

  8. Chemical Equations • Chemical reaction expressed with chemical equation. • Shows relative number of products and reactants required to satisfy the Law of Conservation of Mass. • Our lab reaction: • Must be written: • This balances the equation (reactants = products).

  9. Rules for Balancing Chemical Rxns • Never Change Subscripts • Balance Groups First • Balance H2O, O2, and H2 last. • We balance by adding coefficients. • Two reactant oxygens • Four product hydrogens • Properly balanced 2 2

  10. Mole Ratios • Mole ratios: • how many moles of products are produced with given number of moles of reactants. • Here, the mole ratio is 1:1:2 (1H2 : 1Cl2 : 2 HCl) • This means two moles of HCl will be produced when one mole of H2 and one mole of Cl2 react.

  11. Balancing Practice • Balance the following reactions on your own: 4 3 2 Rust 2 2 Thermite + Energy 2 5 4 2 + Energy Acetylene torch 6 6 6 + Energy Respiration
