3. Objective
SWBAT: identify the rearrangement of atoms in chemical reactions.

4. Connection
Yesterday we started talking about chemical reactions and how the law of conservation of mass applies to reactions.
Today we are going to continue to see that this is true by practicing counting atoms for both reactants and products in chemical equations.

5. Chemical Reactions
Chemical reactions happen when two or more substances (reactants) interact and form a new substance (product).
The new substances, can be completely different than the original substances, and have different properties.

6. Chemical Reactions
Chemical reactions can be represented by chemical equations.
Chemical equations have three parts:
Reactants (on the left)
Products (on the right)
Yield symbol (in the middle, like an equal sign)

7. Chemical Reactions Remember the Law of Conservation of Mass!
The number of atoms on the reactant side has to be equal to the number of atoms on the product side!

8. Chemical Equation example Photosynthesis
6CO2  H2O + Sunlight  C6H12O6  O2
Carbon Dioxide + Water + Sunlight  Sugar + Oxygen
How many atoms are there on each side of the yield sign?

9. Chemical Equation example Cellular Respiration
C6H12O6 + 6 O2  6 CO2 + 6 H2O
Sugar + Oxygen  Carbon Dioxide + Water
How many atoms are there on each side of the yield sign?

10. Independent work
Complete the practice problems for counting atoms. Make sure that all of the chemical reactions shown are supporting the law of conservation of matter.
