The Law of Conservation of Mass: In any chemical reaction matter cannot be created or destroyed. H2 (g) + O2 (g) H2O (g) O O O O H H H H H H H H 2 2 We call this equation unbalanced because the atoms are not conserved.
Balancing Rules: You cannotchange the formulaof any reactant or product. You canonlychange the coefficients in front of the reactants and products. 3 H2O

In nature there are millions of possible chemical reactions. • Chemists have discovered that many reactions are similar. • Once the chemist knows the type of reaction, then the products of the reaction can be predicted. • So, the chemists have classified the reactions.
Key Words • Synthesis reactions • Decomposition reactions • Single replacement reactions • Double replacement reactions • Combustion reactions
Synthesis Reactions (Combination): 2 or more substances react to form a single substance. A + B C S S O O O O +
2 Na + S Na2S H2 + O2 H2O K + Cl2 KCl Fe + O2 Fe2O3 2 2 2 2 2 4 3
Decomposition Reactions: A single compound splits apart, into two or more simpler compounds. C A + B S S O O O O +
