Chemical Reactions Review What is the difference between a What is the difference between a chemical and a physical reaction? chemical and a physical reaction?
2
Clues that a chemical reaction occurred: 1. Color change 2. Precipitate (Solid) formation 3. Bubble/gas formation 4. Heat/flame production or absorption.
3
In chemical reactions BONDS are BROKEN! BONDS are FORMED!
4
Chemical Equation Chemical Equation * Represents a chemical reaction * Represents a chemical reaction In the form: REACTANTS PRODUCTS * In the form: REACTANTS PRODUCTS * Physical states are given using symbols * Physical states are given using symbols Symbol State Symbol State (s) Solid (s) Solid (l) liquid (l) liquid (g) gas (g) gas (aq) aqueous(dissolved in water) (aq) aqueous(dissolved in water)
5
There are generally 5 types of reactions Synthesis Decomposition Single Replacement (displacement) Double Replacement (displacement) Double Replacement (displacement) Combustion Combustion
6
Synthesis Two or more simple substances combine to make a complex substance A + B AB Example: solid magnesium and oxygen gas forming magnesium oxide 2 Mg (s) + O 2 (g) 2 MgO(s
7
Decomposition One complex substance is broken down into two or more simpler substances AB A + B Example: Solid Mercury II oxide decomposes to solid mercury and oxygen gas 2 HgO(s) 2 Hg(s) + O 2 (g)
8
A single anion or cation is exchanged (a single element replaces an element in a compound) A + BC B + AC or A + BC BA + C Example: solid magnesium metal in aqueous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen monochloride) makes aqueous magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g) Single Replacement
9
Double Replacement The anions/cations are exchanged (an element from each of two compounds switch places) AB + CD AD + CB Example: aqueous silver nitrate and aqueous sodium chloride react to make solid silver I chloride and aqueous sodium nitrate AgNO 3 (aq) +NaCl(aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO 3 (aq) AgNO 3 (aq) +NaCl(aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO 3 (aq)
10
Combustion A substance reacts with oxygen and releases A substance reacts with oxygen and releases light and heat in the process light and heat in the process X + O 2 XO or X + O 2 XO or (CH) x + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O (CH) x + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 OExample: CH4 + 2 O 2 CO 2 + 2 H 2 O CH4 + 2 O 2 CO 2 + 2 H 2 O Methane gas is burned in air. It produces carbon dioxide and water.
