Chemical Equations Review. CH 4 + 2 O 2 CO 2 + 2 H 2 O “ coefficients ” “ subscripts ” coefficients can be changed to achieve mass balance but subscripts are never changed to balance an equation Why?

Chemical Equations Review CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O “coefficients” “subscripts” coefficientscan be changed to achieve mass balance but subscripts are never changed to balance an equation Why? Because changing a subscript changes the compound entirely!!!
So how do we get subscripts? In ionic compounds you simply cross the ions charge values. Li + MgCl2 ??????? Single replacement reaction. Why? Li is a metal, Mg is a metal, Cl is a nonmetal Li+ replaces Mg2+ and combines with Cl- The products are Mg + LiCl The balanced equation will be 2 Li + MgCl2 Mg + 2 LiCl
Balancing a Chemical Equation • write formula for each reactant and product on the correct side of the “reaction arrow” • count atoms of each element on both sides of arrow • start with the compound which has the most complex formula • add coefficients to chemical formulas to balance numbers of each atom • trial and error begins...
What am I? Mg + HCl MgCl2 + H2 Single replacement Na2CO3 + HCl NaCl + H2CO3 Double replacement Cu + S Cu2S Synthesis
NaCl is soluble in water. Solid NaCl dissociates into Na+ and Cl- ions in aqueous solution: NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Pb(NO3)2 + 2NaI PbI2 + 2NaNO3 (aq) (aq) (s) (aq) See solubility rules
Net Ionic Equations Balanced Chemical Equation: Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaI(aq) PbI2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) “Complete Ionic” Equation: Pb2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + 2Na+(aq)+ 2I-(aq) PbI2(s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) Cancel the “spectator ions” that appear on both sides of the arrow Pb2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + 2Na+(aq)+ 2I-(aq) PbI2(s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) “Net Ionic” Equation: Pb2+(aq) + 2I-(aq) PbI2(s)
For the exam: know how to use solubility rules to predict whether an ionic compound is insoluble or not
Net Ionic Equations Revisited: • Write the (balanced!) molecular equation first • Reaction products: swap cations and anions • Predict solubility (using Solubility rules) • Write the complete ionic equation next • (s) compounds don’t ionize • (aq) compounds do ionize • ion subscripts in the molecular equation become coefficients in the complete ionic equation! • Write the netionic equation next • cancel spectator ions • The net ionic equation is a “simplified” form • of the complete ionic equation
