Toxins Unit – Investigation II Lesson 1: The Language of Change
ChemCatalyst • Below is a chemical “sentence” describing the formation of a very toxic substance, hydrogen cyanide. • NaCN (s) + HCl (aq) NaCl (aq) + HCN (g) • What kinds of information does this chemical notation contain? List at least four pieces of information contained in this chemical notation. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
The Big Question • How do chemists describe chemical reactions, and what kinds of evidence do they look for to verify that their descriptions are correct? Unit IV • Investigation II-X
You will be able to: • Identify the different components of a chemical equation and use that information to predict the outcome of the reaction it represents. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Notes • The previous chemical “sentence” is called a chemical equation. A chemical equation describes change. (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Notes(cont.) • The substances you start with before the change takes place are on the left side of the arrow. If there is more than one substance and they react with one another, they are called reactants. • The substances you end up with after the change takes place are on the right side of the arrow. They are often referred to as products. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Activity • Purpose: In this experiment, you will carry out the reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium bicarbonate, and then do some analysis of the products that form. (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
(cont.) • Safety note: Hydrochloric acid is dangerous and causes burns. Do not get hydrochloric acid on your skin. In case of a spill, rinse with large amounts of water. Wear goggles. (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
(cont.) (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
(cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Making Sense • Describe how a chemical equation keeps track of a chemical reaction. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Notes • HCl(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) • NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Check-In • Consider the following reaction between sodium cyanide and a solution of hydrochloric acid. • NaCN (s) + HCl (aq) NaCl (aq) + HCN (g) • Describe in detail what you would observe if you carried out this reaction. • Describe the products that you would have. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Wrap-Up • Chemical equations help chemists keep track of the substances involved in chemical and physical changes. • Chemical equations indicate the reactants and products of chemical reactions. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Toxins Unit – Investigation II Lesson 2: Making Predictions
ChemCatalyst • Consider the following reaction: • AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) • KNO3(aq) + AgCl(s) • What do you expect to observe if you carried out the reaction? • Translate the above chemical equation into writing, describing what is taking place. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
The Big Question • How do chemists predict the products of reactions and write the chemical reactions they represent? Unit IV • Investigation II-X
You will be able to: • Use chemical reactions to predict expected real-world observations and use real-world observations to write the chemical reaction they represent. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Activity • Purpose: This lesson provides you with practice translating chemical equations.You will have the opportunity to check you predictions by completing the laboratory procedure associated with each equation. (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
(cont.) • Safety note: Do not touch the dry ice with your fingers. It causes burns. NaOH, Ca(OH)2, and NH4OH are caustic. Do not get them on your skin. In case of a spill, rinse with large amounts of water. Wear goggles. (cont.) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Making Sense • Make a list of all the different types of things that you observed today that are associated with changes in matter. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Check-In • No Check-In exercise. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Wrap-Up • Chemical equations allow chemists to predict and track changes in matter. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Toxins Unit – Investigation II Lesson 3: Spare Change?
ChemCatalyst • The following two equations both describe what happens when dry ice is placed in water: • CO2 (s) CO2 (g) • CO2 (s) + H2O (l) H2CO3 (aq) • What differences do you see in these two equations? • Why do you think two equations are needed to describe what happens? Unit IV • Investigation II-X
The Big Question • What are the differences between physical changes and chemical changes? Unit IV • Investigation II-X
You will be able to: • Convert back and forth between chemical reaction notation and real world observations, and identify each change as either chemical or physical. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Notes • In a chemical equation describing a physical change, the chemical formulas do not change in going from reactants to products. However, the phase (s, l, & aq) does change. • In a chemical equation describing a chemical change, the chemical formulas of the reactants are different from those of the products. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Activity • Purpose: This activity provides you with practice distinguishing between physical and chemical changes using only the chemical equations. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Making Sense • Compare your observations for each reaction to the chemical equations. If you were asked to classify a reaction as a physical or chemical change, which would you prefer to have, a set of observations or chemical equations? Explain your thinking. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Notes • CaCl2 (s) CaCl2 (aq) • CaCl2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2 Cl– (aq) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Check-In • Does the following chemical equation describe a physical change or a chemical change? Explain how you can tell. • C17H17O3N(s) + 2C4H6O3(l) • C21H21O5N(s) + 2 C2H4O2(l) Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Wrap-Up • Chemical changes involve the formation of new substances. Physical changes, such as phase changes, involve a change in form. • Chemical equations often provide more straightforward information about the type of change than mere observations. Unit IV • Investigation II-X
Toxins Unit – Investigation II Lesson 4: Scrub the Air
ChemCatalyst • In enclosed spaces such as on a space station or in a submarine, the breathing of the occupants causes a natural build up of carbon dioxide, CO2. Too much CO2 in the air is highly toxic. • List two ways to use chemical change to eliminate CO2 (g). Unit IV • Investigation II-X
The Big Question • How does molecular bonding affect the outcome of chemical reactions? Unit IV • Investigation II-X
