Chemical Equations & Reactions Chemistry 6.0
I. Chemical Reactions • Definition: a process by which 1 or more substances, called reactants, are changed into 1 or more substances, called products, with different physical & chemical properties. • Evidence of a Chemical Reaction • Color change • Formation of a precipitate, ppt • Release of a gas • Energy change – heat, light, sound • Odor change • Reactions are started by the addition of energy
II. Chemical Equation • Form • Reactant + Reactant Product + Product • Symbols: (s), (l), (g), (aq) NR
Writing Chemical Equations • Two moles of water at room temperature are exposed to an electric current and produces two moles of hydrogen gas and one mole of oxygen gas. • When two moles of aluminum pellets are added to three moles of a copper(II) chloride solution, 3 moles of copper precipitate out and two moles of aluminum chloride remain in solution. 2 H2O(l) 2 H2(g) + 1 O2(g) 2 Al(s) + 3 CuCl2(aq) 3 Cu(s) + 2 AlCl3(aq)
Characteristics of A Balanced Chemical Equations • The equation must represent known facts. All substances have been identified. • The equation must contain the correct symbols and/or formulas for the reactants and products • Can be either a word equation or a formula equation • The law of conservation of mass must be satisfied. This provides the basis for balancing chemical equations. 1st formulated by Antoine Lavoisier TOTAL MASS REACTANTS = TOTAL MASS PRODUCTS Number of atoms of EACH element is the SAME on both sides of the equation.
Balancing Chemical Equations • Balance using coefficients after correct formulas are written. Coefficients are usually the smallest whole number – required when interpreted at the molecular level • Balance atoms one at a time • Balance the atoms that are combined and appear only once on each side. • Balance polyatomics that appear on both sides • Balance H and O atoms last NEVER CHANGE SUBSCRIPTS!!! **Count atoms to be sure that the equation is balanced**
BALANCING Examples • sodium + chlorine sodium chloride • CH4 (g) + O2 (g) CO2 (g) + H2O(l) • K(s) + H2O(l) KOH(aq) + H2(g) HOH • AgNO3(aq)+ Cu(s) Cu(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)

Thermochemistry • The study of the changes in energy that accompany a chemical reaction and physical changes. • Chemical Reactions involve changes in energy that result from • Bond breaking that requires energy (absorbs) from the surroundings. • Bond making that produces energy (releases) to the surroundings. • Changes in energy result in an energy flow or transfer.
surroundings Exothermic Reaction (system) surroundings surroundings surroundings Types of Reactions • Exothermic Reactions: a reaction that releases heat into their surroundings. • Heat is a product of the reaction and temperature of the surroundingsincrease. • This occurs during bond formation.
surroundings Endothermic Reaction (system) surroundings surroundings surroundings Types of Reactions • Endothermic Reactions: a reaction that absorbs heat from the surroundings. • Heat acts as a reactant and temperature of the surroundingsdecreases. • This occurs during bond breaking.
Energy & Chemical EquationsCoefficients are always interpreted as moles. Physical states are written – influences the overall energy exchanged. Very specific! • Exothermic – release energy; E product CaCl2(s) Ca+2 (aq) + 2Cl-1(aq) + 88.0kJ • Combustion reactions are ALWAYS exothermic: C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O + 2043 kJ • Endothermic– absorbs energy; E reactant 2NH4Cl(s) + Ba(OH)2·8H2O(s) + 63.9 kJ BaCl2(s) + 2NH3(g) + 10H2O • Rewrite for 1 mole of Cl-1: ½ CaCl2(s) ½ Ca+2 (aq) + 1 Cl-1(aq) + 44.0kJ
Heat and Enthalpy Changes • Enthalpy (H): the heat content of a system at constant pressure. • There is no way to directly measure the enthalpy of a substance or system. • Unit: J • Enthalpy Change (H): is the heat absorbed or released in a physical or chemical change at constant pressure. • H = Hproducts ─ Hreactants • This can be measured. • H is also known as the heat of the reaction. • Difference between the stored energy of the reactants and the products.

Hess’s Law • The enthalpy change for a reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes for a series of reactions that addsup to the overall reaction. • This is also called the Law of Heat of Summation (Σ) 3. This allows you to determine the enthalpy change for a reaction by indirect means when a direct method cannot be done.
Steps for using Hess’s Law • Write a balanced equation. • Identify the compounds. • Write the reaction from the table so the compound is a reactant or product as it appears in the balanced equation. • Write appropriate ΔH for each sub equation. • If needed, multiply the sub equation and the associated ΔH’s (coefficients). • If you reverse the equation, change the sign of the enthalpy change. • Add the sub equations to arrive at the desired balanced equation. • Add ΔH’s of each sub equation to calculate the ΔH for the desired balanced equation.
