Chapter 8 Notes, Part I Parts of an equation Types of reactions
What is a chemical reaction? • A chemical reaction is 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 elements 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”
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
Other symbols in an Equation • (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.)
What is: • The name of something that speeds a reaction, but is not used up? • The name of what you have before a reaction takes place? • The symbol for heat? • The number that shows there are more than one of the entire compound?
Types of reactions • There are five types of reactions • Combination • Decomposition • Single replacement • Double replacement • Combustion
Combination Reaction • A combination reaction occurs when two or more elements or compounds combine to form a single substance. • It will follow the form A + B a AB • Example: Fe + S aFeS
Decomposition Reaction • A decomposition reaction occurs when one substance breaks down into two or more substances. • It will follow the pattern AB a A + B • Example: CaCO3aCaO+CO2
Single Replacement Reaction • One element replaces another element in a compound. • Generally follows the formula: AB + C a A + BC • Example: Mg+Zn(NO3)2aZn+Mg(NO3)2
Double Replacement Reaction • The exchange of two positive ions between two reacting compounds, forming two new compounds as a product. • Generally follows the formula: AB + CD a AD + CB • Example: Na2S+Cd(NO3)2aCdS+2NaNO3
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 + O2a CO2 + H2O • Example: CH4 + O2a CO2 + 2H2O
What type of reaction is: • NaCN + H2SO4a 2HCN + Na2SO4 • Zn + 2HCl a ZnCl2 + H2 • 2C2H6 + 7O2a 4CO2 + 6H2O • 2H2 + O2a 2H2O
