Improvements• Have students write chemical equations from word

equations first, then go the other way. And get a worksheet on these things.

• Specific Examples for Rules of balancing • Better procession for teaching balancing equations. The

worksheet is excellent, but the powerpoint is awful for teaching!

• Include Steel wool experiment – Put in water– Put in salt water– Measure change in mass– Measure amount of salt!– Compare how fast they rust– Why do things rust faster when they’re wet anyhow?

Chemical Reactions

Today you are going to…take notes on chemical reactions.

So you can…interpret, write, and balance chemical equations

You’ll know you’ve got it when you can • Differentiate between chemical & physical changes• Identify the parts of a chemical equation• Define, explain, and give examples of precipitates &

catalysts

• Physical change –a change in the appearance of something, often easier to “undo”– Ex.

• Chemical change – a substance changes into a new substances with new properties (and new chemical formulas).– Ex.

Chemical Reactions

• Word Equation – to express the change in words.

• Chemical equation – to express the change in formulas.

The parts of a chemical equation• Reactants – chemicals reacting• Products – chemicals produced• Coefficients – big numbers, used to balance

equation, how many of each compound/molecule• Subscripts – part of chemical formula, tells how

many of each atom is in chemical• Yields – arrow!

2 H20 2 H2 + O2

States of Matter in Equations

Liquid water decomposes into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas.

(s) - solid(l) - liquid(g) - gas(aq) – aqueous solution (dissolved in water)

H20 (l) H2 (g) + O2 (g)

Precipitate• A solid produced by mixing two aqueous solutions

– A bunch of precipitates video• Lead (II) nitrate in solution reacts with sodium iodide in solution

to form lead (II) iodide precipitate and a sodium nitrate solution.

Precipitate• You get gold & precious metals from computers via

precipitates!

1. Write the equation above in words. (C10H8 is Naphthalene)

2. Identify the following in the equation above.1. Products, reactants, coefficients, subscripts

3. What is a precipitate?4. What does aqueous mean?5. What is a catalyst?

C10H8 (l) + 12 O2 (g) 10 CO2 (g) + 4 H2O (g)

Pt

• 2CO (g) + O2 (g) 2CO2 (g)

1. In presence of a platinum catalyst, gaseous carbon monoxide combines with gaseous oxygen nitrogen to form gaseous carbon dioxide.

2. A catalyst is something that speeds up or slows down a chemical reaction without chemically changing itself.

3. Reactants are CO & O2 Product is CO2

4. Aqueous means “dissolved in water”5. A precipitate is the solid formed from a reaction between 2

aqueous solutions.6. Equations have to be balanced to be physically accurate/true. If

they’re not balanced, they show matter either magically appearing or disappearing, which can’t happen. The law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed.

Pt

Catalysts

• A substance that changes the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed or changed significantly– Positive catalysts - speed up reaction• Lower the amount of energy required to activate the reaction

– Negative catalysts, aka “inhibitors” - slow down reaction• Uses– Used in making gasoline, plastics, margarine, beer– In laundry detergents– In living things - enzymes are biological catalysts

Examples of Catalysts• Platinum in catalytic convert reduces NO emissions• In presence of a platinum catalyst, nitrogen

monoxide gas decomposes into nitrogen gas and oxygen gas

2NO (g) N2 (g) + O2 (g)

• Platinum decreases CO emissions2CO (g) + O2 (g) 2CO2 (g)

Pt

Pt

What’s the word equation?

• In presence of sulfuric acid catalyst, ethanol gas reacts with hydrochloric acid gas to form chloroethane and liquid water

• In the presence of a vanadium (V) oxide catalyst, sulfur dioxide gas reacts with oxygen gas to produce sulfur trioxide gas.

Reactants being heated

• ∆ means the reactants are heated

6 Types of Chemical Reactions

SynthesisDecompositionSingle-DisplacementDouble-Displacement

Acid-BaseCombustion

Synthesis

What does synthesis mean? Synthetic? Two or more substances combine to form one.

A + B ---> ABOne example of a synthesis reaction is the

combination of iron and sulfur to form iron (II) sulfide:

Fe + S8 ---> FeS

Decomposition

• What does decompose mean?• One complex substance breaks down to make 2

simpler ones. (Opposite of synthesis)AB ---> A + B

• Ex: Electrolysis of water to make oxygen and hydrogen gas:

H2O ---> H2 + O2

Single-Displacement• What does single mean?• What does displacement mean?• One element trades places with another

element in a compound.A + BC ---> AC + B

• Ex: when magnesium replaces hydrogen in water to make magnesium hydroxide and hydrogen gas:

Mg + Be(OH)2 ---> Mg(OH)2 + Be

Double-Displacement

The parts of two substances switch places, forming two new substances.

AB + CD ---> AD + CB• Ex: the reaction of lead (II) nitrate with

potassium iodide to form lead (II) iodide and potassium nitrate:

Pb(NO3)2 + 2 KI ---> PbI2 + 2 K(NO3)

Acid-Base

A double displacement reaction that takes place when an acid and base react with each other.

Makes water (& usually salt).HA + BOH ---> H2O + BA

Ex: hydrobromic acid reacts with sodium hydroxide HBr + NaOH ---> H2O + NaBr

Give students something

• Can you turn this into water?

Combustion

• What does combustion mean?• When oxygen combines with another

compound (hydrocarbon) to form water and carbon dioxide.

• These reactions are exothermic, meaning they __________________.

• Ex: Burning of napthalene: C10H8 (s) + 12 O2 (g) 10 CO2 (g) + 4 H2O (g)

Candle demo!

• Pass out candles and jars and ask the groups to make observations...see if they can come to conclusion. So what gases were in the jar?

H20 H2 + O2

Law of Conservation of Mass

• Matter cannot be created nor destroyed by ordinary chemical or physical means.

• Things can’t just appear from nowhere, nor can they cease to exist.

• There have to be the same number of each atom on both sides of an equation.

• This is why you have to balance equations.

the arrow, put parenthesis around it.2. First Even/odd rule – if there’s an even number of atoms on one

side and an odd number on the other side, multiply the odd number by 2.
