Bell ringer 1/30 What is a chemical reaction?
a process in which one or more substances change into new substance(s) having different physical and chemical properties. How molecules separate and atoms combine - LR What is the evidence for a chemical reaction? Energy Changes: heat, light, sound or electrical energy changes. New Substances: gas, solid, liquid, water, color changes, odor changes.

6.Remove the nails. Rinse or scrape the precipitate (copper metal) from the nails into your labeled 250 mL beaker. Place the nails in a labeled small beaker. Note the appearance of the nails. Place this beaker on tray labeled nails. 7. Decant solution from the 250 mL beaker. Rinse the precipitate with about 25 mL of distilled water. Try to lose as little of the solid copper as you can when you decant. After a 2nd rinse with distilled water, rinse the copper with 25 mL of 1 M HCl. Rinse one last time with distilled water. Then place the labeled jar in drying oven.

Representing reactions in chemistry as an equation
Sodium metal burns in chlorine gas to form solid sodium chloride Na (s) + Cl2 (g) NaCl (s) Reactants: starting substances (left). Products: ending substances, what's produced (right). Plus sign (+) means “reacts with.” Arrow sign () means “yields.”
5
Chemical equation symbols
Coefficients: how many units of each substance are present (whole numbers written before reactants & products). Subscripts: how many of each atom type are in a substance (subscripts in formulas). (s) = solid (l) = liquid (g) = gas (aq) = aqueous (water) solution (ppt)= precipitate Precipitate is a solid that suddenly appears when that phase was not initially present, i.e. two liquids are mixed and you get a solid.
6
Rearranging atoms activity
the rearrangement process of a chemical reaction requires that all atoms from the reactant molecules MUST become part of one of the products- conservation of mass coefficients describe how many whole particles of each substance are either consumed or formed subscripts describe the count of atoms in a substance; reactions proceed by first breaking bonds between atoms in the reactants, and then forming new bonds between these atoms to make the products.

What would happen to the ratio of copper to iron if you had placed more nails in the beaker? If you let the reaction go for less time? 4.What is the accepted ratio of copper atoms to iron atoms in this reaction? Account for differences between your experimental value and the accepted value. Write the balanced equation for the reaction.

Types of Reactions - 1 N2 + 3 H2 2 NH3

29
Types of Reactions - 2 2 KClO3 2 KCl + 3 O2
Decomposition - one reactant breaks into two or more products. AB A + B 2 A2B 4 A + B2 2 KClO3 2 KCl O2
30
Types of Reactions – 3 Single Replacement/Displacement - an element reacts with a compound, and part of the compound is replaced by the element. (Metals replace metals, and nonmetals replace nonmetals.) A + BC AC + B Cu + H2SO4 CuSO4 + H2(g)
31
Types of Reactions – 4 Double Replacement/Displacement - one compound reacts with another compound, and they change partners. (Each cation goes with the opposite anion.) AB + CD AD + CB CaCl2 + (NH4)2O CaO NH4Cl
32
Types of Reactions – 5 Combustion - a substance reacts with oxygen, and everything ends as carbon dioxide or water. CHx + O2 → CO2 + H2O CH O2 CO H2O
33
Combustion Combustion – Form of oxidation that releases a large amount of energy (HIGHLY EXOTHERMIC). Three requirements for a combustion: Fuel – reacts with oxidizing agent to release energy Oxidizing agent – substance that causes a fuel to react (usually oxygen) Ignition temperature – the required temperature needed to combust the fuel Three types of combustions: Rapid – Release a lot of energy in a short period of time Spontaneous – Fuel ignites without the need for outside energy Slow – Occurs of long period of time
34
Keeping Track of Energy During Chemical Change
A coherent way to treat energy in chemical reactions
35
Modeling Approach Use energy bar diagrams to represent energy accounts at various stages of reaction Provide mechanism for change Reconnect kinetic and chemical potential energy Focus on what is happening during the course of the reaction
36
Endothermic reaction A system of reactants that absorbs heat from the surroundings in an endothermic reaction has a positive ΔQ, because the enthalpy of the products is higher than the enthalpy of the reactants of the system. How do you know on which side to write the energy term? If you had to supply energy to the reactants, the products store more energy energy + 2H2O 2H2+ O2 (g) If uncertain, use analogy from algebra If 3 + y = x, which is greater, y or x? Consistent with generalization that separated particles have more energy
37
Endothermic reaction This is the standard energy diagram found in most texts. But it doesn’t tell the whole story.
38
Endothermic Reaction +DH Endothermic Energy Reaction progress
Energy + Reactants Products Activation Energy Products Energy +DH Endothermic Reactants Reaction progress
39
Energy Bar Graphs- Endothermic
Show energy transfers between surroundings and system Allow you to consider other energy accounts energy + 2H2O 2H2+ O2 (g)
40
Endothermic Consider role of Ek
How does heating the reactants result in an increase in Ech? Energy to rearrange atoms in molecules must come from collisions of molecules Low energy collisions are unlikely to produce molecular rearrangement
41
Endothermic Heating system increases Ek
Hotter, faster molecules (surroundings) transfer energy to colder, slower molecules (system) Now reactant molecules are sufficiently energetic to produce reaction Note intermediate stage
42
Now reaction proceeds During collisions, particles trade Ek for Ech as products are formed After rearrangement, resulting particles move more slowly (lower Ek).
43
Consider all steps in process
1.Heating system increases Ek of reactant molecules 2.Energy is transferred from Ek to Ech now stored in new arrangement of atoms 3. Resulting system is cooler - requires continued heating to bring Ek back up to level required to sustain reaction energy + 2H2O 2H2+ O2 (g)
44
Exothermic Contrast Conventional Diagram
This is the standard energy diagram found in most texts. But, again,it doesn’t tell much of the story.
45
Exothermic Reaction Reactants Products + Energy Energy Reactants -DH
10 energy = energy energy Energy of reactants Energy of products Energy Reactants -DH Products Reaction Progress
46
Exothermic reaction A system that releases heat to the surroundings, an exothermic reaction, has a negative ΔQ by convention, because the enthalpy of the products is lower than the enthalpy of the reactants of the system How do you know on which side to write the energy term? If energy flows from system to surroundings, then the products must store less Ech than the reactants CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O + energy
47
Exothermic reaction CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O + energy
48
Exothermic reaction Now take into account changes in Ek
When reactant molecules collide to produce products that store less energy, new molecules move away more rapidly Note intermediate stage
49
Exothermic reaction System is now hotter than surroundings; energy flows out of system until thermal equilibrium is re-established
50
Consider all steps in process
1. Decrease in Echresults in increased Ek 2. System is now hotter than surroundings 3. Energy is transferred from system to surroundings via heating
51
What about a spontaneous endothermic process?
When NH4Cl dissolves in water, the resulting solution gets much colder What caused the Ek to decrease? Some Ek of water required to separate ions in crystal lattice. Resulting solution has greater Ech than before
52
Reaction useful for cold-packs
The system trades Ek for Ech Eventually energy enters cooler system from warmer surroundings (you!)
53
Steps to drawing energy bar graphs
Write the balanced chemical equation with the energy term on the correct side of the equation. Energy on right – exothermic – start with a high Ech and go from initial to heated final to final (low Ech) increase Ek Energy on left – endothermic – start with a low Ech and go from initial to heated initial to final (high Ech) decrease Ek
