IS9 23 notes
I. Chemical Changes (23.1/721-5)
A. Chemical Reactions
1. Change one or more substances into new substances
2. Reactant + reactant = product
3. Reactant = product + product
B. Conservation of Mass
• Mass remains constant in a chemical reaction.
• Mass is neither created, nor destroyed.
C. Chemical Equations
• Chemical symbols (Mg, O)
• Chemical formulas (MgO)
3. Coefficients – numbers of each element or molecule on each side of the reaction
4. Subscripts – small, lower numbers showing the number of atoms in each molecule in it’s formula
II. Chemical Equations (23.2/726-9)
A. Overview:
• Mg + O2 MgO + Energy
• Magnesium + Oxygen = Magnesium Oxide
• Balanced:
2 Mg + O2 2 MgO + Energy
B. Balanced: Same # of atoms of each element in the reactants as in the products
C. Balancing Chemical Equations
1. Same # of atoms on each side of equation:
Step one
2. Mg + O2 MgO
Mg 1 Mg 1
O 2 O 1
Step two
2. Mg + O2 2 MgO
Mg 1 Mg 2
O 2 O 2
Step three
2. 2 Mg + O2 2 MgO
Mg 2 Mg 2
O 2 O 2
• Samples:
Li + H2O à LiOH + H2
Fe + O2 à FeO
Fe + Cl2 à FeCl3
4. AM p728 (Ignore the “aq” & “s”. )
III. Classifying Chemical Reactions
(23.3/730-3)
A. Synthesis
• 2 or more simple substances react to form a new more complex substance
• 2 Na + Cl2 2 NaCl
B. Decomposition
• A complex substance breaks down into 2 or more simpler substances.
• 2 H2O 2 H2 + O2
C. Single-Replacement
• An uncombined element replaces an element that is part of a compound.
• 2 Na + 2H20 2 NaOH + H2
• Each Na replaced one H
D. Double-Replacement
• Different atoms in two compounds replace each other.
• MgCO3 + 2 HCl MgCl2 + H2CO3
IV. Reaction Rates & Energy
(23.4/774-740)
A. Energy Exchanges
• Bonds use and release energy
• Activation energy – energy needed to start a reaction
B. Exergonic Reactions
• Energy is released (usually in the form of heat and/or light)
-
Exothermic - releases heat
• Ex. burning of methane gas
• Draw diagram, p 738
C. Energonic Reactions
• Energy is absorbed (usually heat or light)
-
Endothermic - absorbs heat
• Ex. instant ice packs
• Draw diagram, p 736
D. Kinetics
• – study of reaction rates (how quickly reactants turn into products)
effected by:
temperature
pH
concentration
agitation (stirring)
surface
pressure
catalyst/inhibitors
