1. Chemical Reactions - Observing Chemical Change Properties and Changes in Matter Matter can undergo both physical change and chemical change.

2. Chemical Reactions - Observing Chemical Change Properties and Changes in Matter Chemical changes occur when bonds break and new bonds form.

3. Chemical Reactions - Describing Chemical Reactions Describing Chemical Reactions Cellular phone messages make use of symbols and abbreviations to express ideas in shorter form. Similarly, chemists often use chemical equations in place of words.

4. Chemical Reactions - Describing Chemical Reactions What Are Chemical Equations? A short, easy way to show a chemical reaction. Chemical equations use chemical formulas and other symbols instead of words to summarize a reaction.

5. Chemical Reactions - Describing Chemical Reactions Chemical Formulas The formula of a compound identifies the elements in the compound and the ratios in which their atoms are present.

6. Chemical Reactions - Describing Chemical Reactions 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.

7. Chemical Reactions Open System vs. Closed System Open System- A system that allows matter to enter from or escape to the surroundings. Closed System- A system that does not allow for matter to enter from or escape to the surroundings. A chemical reaction taking place inside of a plastic, sealed bag.

8. Chemical Reactions - Describing Chemical Reactions 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.

9. Chemical Reactions 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. - Describing Chemical Reactions
