1  Apply “Law of Conservation” to chemical equations What is stoichiometry?

2 Conservation of Mass The principle of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of the reactants must equal the total mass of the products. ReactantsProduct 140 g. + 80 g. = 220 g.

3 LecturePLUS Timberlake3 Matter Is Conserved H 2 + Cl 2 2 HCl ++ Total atoms=Total atoms 2 H, 2 Cl2H, 2 Cl Total Mass=Total Mass 2(1.0) + 2(35.5)2(36.5) 73.0 g= 73.0 g

4 Balancing Chemical Equations To describe a reaction accurately, a chemical equation must show the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation.

5 5 A Balanced Chemical Equation Same numbers of each type of atom on each side of the equation Al + S Al 2 S 3 Not Balanced 2Al + 3S Al 2 S 3 Balanced 1 Aluminum atom + 1 Sulphur atom = 2 Aluminum atoms, 3 Sulphur atoms You can ONLY add whole molecules (#’s in front), not individual atoms

6 LecturePLUS Timberlake6 Steps in Balancing An Equation Fe 3 O 4 + H 2 Fe + H 2 O Fe: Fe 3 O 4 + H 2 3 Fe + H 2 O O:Fe 3 O 4 + H 2 3 Fe + 4 H 2 O H: Fe 3 O 4 + 4 H 2 3 Fe + 4 H 2 O

7 Balancing Chemical Equations Magnesium metal (Mg) reacts with oxygen gas (O 2 ), forming magnesium oxide (MgO). To write a balanced equation for this reaction, first write the equation using the formulas of the reactants and products, then count the number of atoms of each element.

8 Balancing Chemical Equations 1. Balance the equation for the reaction of sodium metal (Na) with oxygen gas (O 2 ), forming sodium oxide (Na 2 O). Na + O Na O 2. Balance the equation for the reaction of tin (Sn) with chlorine gas (Cl 2 ), forming tin chloride (SnCl 2 ). Sn + Cl 2 SnCl 2 2 2 2

9 LecturePLUS Timberlake9 Learning Check: Fill in the correct missing numbers in the equations below. A. Fe 2 O 3 + C Fe + CO 2 1) 2, 3, 2,3 2) 2, 3, 4, 3 3) 1, 1, 2, 3 B. Al + FeO Fe + Al 2 O 3 1) 2, 3, 3, 1 2) 2, 1, 1, 1 3) 3, 3, 3, 1 C. Al + H 2 SO 4 Al 2 (SO 4 ) 3 + H 2 1) 3, 2, 1, 2 2) 2, 3, 1, 3 3) 2, 3, 2, 3

10 LecturePLUS Timberlake10 Solution A. (2) 2 Fe 2 O 3 + 3 C 4 Fe + 3 CO 2 B. (1) 2 Al + 3 FeO 3 Fe + Al 2 O 3 C. (2) 2 Al + 3 H 2 SO 4 Al 2 (SO 4 ) 3 + 3 H 2
