Chapter 10 Notes, Part I Parts of an equation Types of reactions
What is a chemical reaction? • A chemical reaction: the act of changing substances into new substances with new and different chemical and physical properties.
A Chemical Equation • A chemical equation : shows what is going on in a chemical reaction. • Instead of writing down the entire sentence “hydrogen reacts with oxygen to form dihydrogen monoxide (water)”, you could write…
reactants The substances you have before a chemical reaction occurs (found on the left side of the equation) products The substances you have after a chemical reaction occurs (found on the right side of the equation) 2H2 + O2a2H2O
subscripts How many atoms of an element are in a compound coefficients How many substances are in the reaction 2H2 + O2a2H2O
2H2 + O2a2H2O The arrow reads as “produces”, “yields” or “reacts to form”
Word Equation • This indicates the reactants and products of chemical reactions. reactant 1 + reactant 2 → product 1 iron (s) + chlorine (g) → iron(III) chloride (s) This reads: “Iron and chlorine react to produce iron(III) chloride.”
Skeleton Equation • Uses chemical formulas instead of words to identify your reactants and products. Word: iron (s) + chlorine (g) → iron(III) chloride (s) Skeleton: Fe (s) + Cl2 (g) → FeCl3 (s)
Chemical Equation • A skeleton equation that shows that the number of atoms of each reactant and each product is equal on both sides of the arrow, also called balanced. Word: iron (s) + chlorine (g) → iron(III) chloride (s) Skeleton: Fe (s) + Cl2 (g) → FeCl3 (s) Chemical: 2Fe (s) + 3Cl2 (g) → 2 FeCl3
Iron reacts with oxygen gas to produce iron (III) oxide 4Fe + 3O2a2Fe2O3
Other symbols in an Equation • (s) = substance is solid • (l) = substance is liquid • (g) = substance is a gas • (aq) = substance is dissolved in water • D = heat • A formula written above or below an arrow means it is a catalyst (a substance that speeds up a reaction without being used up by it.)
Types of reactions • There are five types of reactions • Synthesis • Decomposition • Single replacement • Double replacement • Combustion
Synthesis Reaction • Synthesis reaction: 2 or more elements or compounds combine to form a single substance. • It will follow the form A + BaAB • Example: Fe + SaFeS
Decomposition Reaction • 1 substance breaks down into 2 or more substances. • It will follow the pattern ABaA + B • Example: CaCO3aCaO+CO2
Single Replacement Reaction • 1 element replaces another element in a compound. • Generally follows the formula: AB + CaA + CB • Example: Mg+Zn(NO3)2aZn+Mg(NO3)2
Double Replacement Reaction • The exchange of 2 positive ions between 2 reacting compounds, forming two new compounds as a product. • Generally follows the formula: AB + CDaAD + CB • Example: Na2S+Cd(NO3)2a2NaNO3 + CdS
Double Replacement Reaction Example: Na2S+Cd(NO3)2a2NaNO3 + CdS *Activity Series: A specific metal can replace any metal listed below it, but not a metal above it. Na Cd (btwn Fe & Ni)
Combustion Reaction • A compound reacts with oxygen to producing energy as heat and light. • Most of the time, it is a hydrocarbon reacting with oxygen, and the outcome is always carbon dioxide and water • Follows the form: A + O2aCO2 + H2O • Example: CH4 + O2aCO2+ 2H2O
What type of reaction is: • NaCN + H2SO4a 2HCN + Na2SO4 • Zn + 2HCl a ZnCl2 + H2 • 2C2H6 + 7O2a 4CO2 + 6H2O • 2H2 + O2a 2H2O
