A scientific artifact. By bluegreen_fire. What is a chemical reaction?. It’s a process that always results in the combination of the chemical substances involved. The substance or substances initially involved are called reactants. The result of a chemical reaction is called the product.

What is a chemical reaction? • It’s a process that always results in the combination of the chemical substances involved. • The substance or substances initially involved are called reactants. • The result of a chemical reaction is called the product. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction
What is the law of mass conservation? • It says the mass of an object will remain constant, no matter what’s going on inside. • Or that mass and or matter cannot be created or destroyed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_mass
What is the law of energy conservation? • The total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant. • Energy cannot be created or destroyed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_energy
What is synthesis? • It’s a series of chemical reactions in order to get a product or several products. • It occurs from physical and chemical changes usually involving one or more reactions. • H2 +O2 H2O http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_synthesis
What is decomposition? • It is basically the opposite of synthesis, because instead of two or more chemicals coming together, they are breaking apart into their original elements. • H2O H2 + O2 • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_decomposition
What is combustion? • It’s a complex exothermic chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant. • The result of this is heat or both heat and light in the form of either a glow or flames. • This is an example of the combustion between hydrogen and oxygen • 2 H2 + O2 2 H2O(g) heat http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion
What is single replacement? • It’s a reaction that occurs when two different cations switch places to combine with the same anion. • The link below has a video example of single replacement. • Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 +H2 http://web.fccj.org/~smilczan/Two5/DR.html
What is double replacement? • It occurs when two ionic compounds are mixed together. • In water the compounds split apart into their respective anions and cations • Now the cations have the opportunity to swap anions. • HCl(aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl + H2O(l) • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_replacement
What are exothermic and endothermic reactions? • An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat, light, or sound. • A good example is fireworks. • C3H +5 O2 3 CO2 +4 H2O http://www.science.uwaterloo.ca/~cchieh/cact/c120/reaction.html • An endothermic reaction must absorb energy to work. • Like when you combine urea and water, the two parts of an ice pack. • 3 H2 + N2 2 NH2 http://www.citycollegiate.com/chapter2a.htm
