  1. Section 1: The Nature of Chemical Reactions Preview • Key Ideas • Bellringer • Chemical Reactions • Energy and Reactions • Reaction Model

  2. Key Ideas • When do chemical reactions take place? • What is the role of energy in chemical reactions?

  3. Bellringer A chemical reaction takes place when a substance changes chemically to produce a new substance. • Caitlyn walks out of her front gate, and she notices that there is a little rust on the metal where there is a scratch in the paint. Is the rust an example of a chemical reaction? • Juan always crushes the aluminum cans before putting them in the recycling bin. Are the crushed cans examples of chemical reactions?

  4. Bellringer, continued • Krista notices that the leaves are beginning to change color from green into reds and oranges. Are the colored leaves examples of chemical reactions? • The ice cubes in Steven’s glass of lemonade are starting to melt. Are the melted ice cubes examples of chemical reactions?

  5. Chemical Reactions • When do chemical reactions take place? • Chemical reactions occur when substances undergo chemical changes to form new substances. • Possible signs of a chemical reaction: • gas formation • solid formation • release of energy

  6. Chemical Reactions, continued • Chemical reactions rearrange atoms. • reactant: a substance or molecule that participates in a chemical reaction • product: a substance that forms in a chemical reaction • Chemical reactions do not create the atoms of the products or destroy the atoms of the reactants.

  8. Visual Concept: Signs of a Chemical Reactions

  9. Energy and Reactions • What is the role of energy in chemical reactions? • Chemical reactions always involve changes in energy. • Energy must be added to break bonds. • Many forms of energy can be used to break bonds: • heat • electricity • sound • light

  10. Energy and Reactions, continued • Forming bonds releases energy. • Energy is conserved in chemical reactions. • chemical energy: the energy released when a chemical compound reacts to produce new compounds • The total energy that exists before the reaction is equal to the total energy of the products and their surroundings. • Energy in a chemical reaction can change form. • Energy is never created or destroyed.

  11. Reaction Model

  12. Energy and Reactions, continued • Reactions that release energy are exothermic. • The amount of energy released as the products form is greater than the amount of energy absorbed to break the bonds in the reactants. • Reactions that absorb energy are endothermic. • More energy is needed to break the bonds in the reactants than is given off by forming bonds in the products. • exothermic reaction: a chemical reaction in which energy is released to the surroundings as heat • endothermic reaction: a chemical reaction that requires energy input
