Combinations of Matter. SIGNS OF CHEMICAL RXNS
E N D
SIGNS OF CHEMICAL RXNS Color change - new substances might reflect different colors of light. Heat change - the container may get hotter or colder. Gas produced - bubbles or smoke may be observed. Precipitate formed - an insoluble solid might form in a liquid.
CONDITION FOR A CHEMICAL RXN: • reactants have ability to form chemical bonds. • Bonds are formed by valence electrons of reactant atoms.
“If valence electrons of substances brought together do not match to complete the Octet Rule, there will be no chemical reaction”.
1 WORD EQUATION Copper oxide (ore) plus hydrogen gas produce copper metal plus water
2 CHEMICAL EQUATION CuO + H2 Cu + H2O
Coefficient Subscript Element 5H2
Reactants Products CuO + H2--> Cu + H2O BALANCED EQUATION 1 copper 1oxygen 2 hydrogen 1 copper 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen
Reactants Products 2 H2 + O2--> BALANCED EQUATION
Reactants Products __H2O __H2 +__ O2--> BALANCED EQUATION
Reactants Products 2 H2 + O2--> 2 H2O BALANCED EQUATION 4 hydrogen2 oxygen 4 hydrogen 2 oxygen
Chemical Equation:a way to represent chemical reactions on paper. 2 H2 + O2--> 2 H2O
Law of conservation of mass: “During a chemical rxn, atoms are neither created nor destroyed. The number of atoms remains constant throughout the reaction. Since the number of atoms doesn't change, the mass must remain constant as well”.
Equations must be balanced because:Atoms can be neither created nor destroyed in an ordinary chemical reaction, so there must be the same number of atoms on both sides of the equation.
Balance equations by changing coefficientsnever by changing formula subscripts

When a flashbulb is set off, Magnesium combines with oxygen to form Magnesium oxide.
Chemical reaction types: synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, double replacement, andcombustion.

Example: element + element compound A + B C
2Na + Cl22NaCl 4Fe + 3O22Fe2O3
REACTION OF COPPER POWDER • WORD EQUATION • CHEMICAL EQUATION • BALANCED CHEMICAL • EQUATION
REACTION OF COPPER POWDER 2Cu + O2 (2CuO) Copper Oxide (2CuO) Pesticide Fungicide
compound element + element CA + B 2H2O 2H2 + O2 H2CO3H2O + CO2
Single replacement: a single element replaces an element in a compound. element + compound compound + element Zn + 2HCl ZnCl2 + H2 2Na + 2H2O 2NaOH + H2
Double replacement:two different atoms in two different compounds exchange places. compound + compound compound + compound MgCO3 + 2HCl MgCl2 + H2CO3 2KCl + Pb(NO3)2 2KNO3 + PbCl2
Combustion When oxygencombines with another compound to form water and carbon dioxide. Reaction is exothermic (produce heat). e.g. burning of napthalene C10H8 + 12 O2 10 CO2 + 4H2O
