Chemical Changes and Equations An Investigation of Four Types of Chemical Reactions
Synthesis Magnesium ribbon is heated in air Mg (s) + O 2 (g) MgO (s) Water is added to the product MgO (s) + H 2 O (l) NH 3 (g) But, where does the N come from?
Synthesis Magnesium ribbon is heated in air Mg (s) + O 2 (g) MgO (s) Mg (s) + N 2 (g) Mg 3 N 2 (s) Water is added to the product Mg 3 N 2 Mg 3 N 2 (s) + H 2 O (l) NH 3 (g) +Mg(OH) 2 (aq)
Decomposition Copper (II) Carbonate is heated CuO (s) CuCO 3 (s) CO 2 (g) + How do you know CO 2 is a product? CaCO 3 (s) + Ca(OH) 2 (aq) H 2 O (l) CO 2 (g) + CaCO 3 (s) + So why did it clear up?
CO 2 (g) + H 2 O (l) H 2 CO 3 (aq) H 2 CO 3 (aq) 2H + + CO H + + CaCO 3 H 2 CO 3 (aq) + Ca 2+
Single Displacement HCl (aq) Zn (s) +ZnCl 2 (aq) + Zinc is added to hydrochloric acid H 2 (g) How do you know the gas is hydrogen? H 2 O (g) + O 2 (g) H 2 (g) +
