Chemical Reactions1 or more substances changed into a new substance or substances
YIELD Reactants: substances about to react Products: new substances produced Reactants Products
Law of Conservation of Mass mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction
Indicators of State • (s) or (cr): solid • (l): liquid • (aq): aqueous dissolved in water • (g): gas
All Chemical Equations MUST BE BALANCEDNEVER change subscripts…Only change coefficients!
Writing Balanced Chemical Equations • Describe the reaction in words • Rewrite using formulas and symbols • (Check for diatomic elements!) • 3. Check equation for atom balance • 4. Choose coefficients that balance the equation
Synthesis: 2 or more substances combine to form another more complex substance A+B AB Decomposition: 1 substance breaks down into 2 or more simpler substances AB A+B
Single Displacement: 1 element replaces another in a compound A + BC AC + B Cu + Ag(NO3) Cu(NO3) + Ag
Double Displacement: 2 ionic compounds in solution • Precipitate • Water • Gas AB + CD AD + CB AgNO3(aq) + NaCl (aq) AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
Bond Energy • The amount of energy required to put a bond together is equal to the amount it takes to pull them apart. • Bonding to hydrogen atoms together absorbs 436 kj of energy. • When two hydrogen atoms are split how much energy is released? • 436 kj
Endothermic Reaction: net absorption of energy • More energy is required to break bonds than to form new ones • Bonds formed have greater potential energy than bonds that were broken • Ex. Ice packs Exothermic Reaction: net release of energy • Less energy is required to break old bonds than to form new ones • Bonds formed have less potential energy than the bonds that were broken • Ex. Hand warmers
Bond Energy and Conservation of Energy • Energy released in an exothermic reaction is NOT CREATED BY THE REACTION! • It was stored as potential energy in the bonds of the reactants • In an endothermic reaction the products store energy as potential energy rather than releasing it as heat.
Activation Energy • Energy that may be needed to start a reation • Used to break the bonds in the reactants
Catalyst: • A catalyst can increase the rate of a chemical reaction • Decreases the activation energy • Decreases costs making rxn more economical • The human body uses enzymes to catalyze reactions
Exploring ad Catalyst: Lab In A Nutshell • The reaction did not take place until the heated copper was added • The copper was not consumed by the reaction • Regains original color • 2Cu + O2 2CUO • CuO + C2H5OH C2H4O + H2O + Cu
