Chapter 23 – Chemical Reactions
23.1 – Chemical Changes
Objectives
• Identify the reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
• Determine how a chemical reaction satisfies the law of the conservation of matter.
• Determine how chemists express chemical changes using equations
Chemical Reactions
• change one or more substances into new substances– Reactants are substances combine or
change
– New substances that are produced are called Products
Different Reactions
• Chemical reactions – use the ELECTRONS to form new substances
• Nuclear reactions - use the NUCLEUS to form new substances
• What does a chemical reaction look like?
Think about it…
• If you burned a piece of paper, you end up with a pile of ashes.
• Once burned, is there…– More mass?– Same mass?– Less mass?
• Why?
Conservation of Mass
• Law that states, in a chemical reaction, matter is not created or destroyed, but stays the same.– Antoine Lavoisier experimented
with mercury (II) oxide and heat– He found mass of products (liquid
mercury and oxygen gas) equaled mass of reactants
Chemical Equation
• Uses chemical formulas and symbols to describe a chemical reaction and the product(s) it produces– Chemical formula expresses the
relationship between elements in the compound and molecules they make up
Chemical Equation
Reactants (left) → Products (right)
Arrow means “yields”
SnO2(s) + 2 H2(g) → Sn(s) + 2 H2O(g)
CH4(g) + 2 O2
(g) → CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g)
Coefficients
• Numbers which represent the number of units of each substance in a reaction– Knowing coefficients of chemical
reactions allows chemists to use the correct amount of reactants to predict the amount of products (law of conservation applies)
Example
Writing equations
• Subscripts are numbers which represent the number of atoms in a molecule of a particular element
• Symbols used to show state of reactants
– (s) solids– (aq) aqueous– (g) gas– (l) liquid
Volcano with a Twist
• Reactants?
• Products?
• Equation:
NaHCO3 ( ) + CH3COOH ( )
CH3COO-Na+ ( ) + H2O ( ) + CO2 ( )
• States?
• Conservation?
Exit slip on BR paper
• SnO2(s) + 2 H2(g) → Sn(s) + 2 H2O(g)
1.What are the reactants?
2.What are the products?
3.How is matter conserved?
