• Chemical Reaction
Objectives March 8, 2011
• Review what a chemical reaction is. Identify products and reactants.
• Explain how chemical reactions occur
• Discuss energy changes associated with bond breaking and bond making
• List the elements that form stable diatomic molecules
What is a Chemical Reaction
• A chemical reaction produces something new.
• One or more substances are converted into new substances that have compositions and properties that are different from the starting substances.
Reactants: The starting substances
Products: The new substances
Chemical equation: representation of the chemical reaction.
Reactants Products
“reacts to form”
Which are Chemical Reactions
1. H2O (l) H2O (g)
2. CO2 + H2O H2CO3
3. CO2 + O2 O2 + CO2
H2 + I2 2HI
How are Reactants Transformed into Products?
• It always takes energy to break a chemical bond.
• Energy is released when a chemical bond is formed.
Balancing Chemical Equations
• The Law of Conservation of Matter is obeyed.
• H2 + I2 2HI
• Adjust the coefficients only. Never change the subscripts!
Practice
• 2H2 How many Hydrogen atoms?
• 2H2O How many Hydrogen? How many Oxygen?
• 2(NH4)2S How many Nitrogen? How many Hydrogen? How many Sulfur?
Try These
H2 + O2 H2O
CH4 + O2 CO2 + H2O
H2 + Cl2 HCl
How reactants are transformed into products?
• Reactants are transformed during chemical reactions
• Energy is required (absorbed) to break a chemical bond
• Energy is released when a chemical bond forms
Balancing equations
• Obey law of conservation of matter• Chemical equations have two
parts: reactants and products
How to balance?
• The total number of atoms of each element should be the same on both sides of equation
• Use coefficients to balance equations
Example:
2H2 + O2 2 H2O
• Calcium carbonate will react with water that is saturated with carbon dioxide to form the soluble calcium bicarbonate.
• CaCO3 + CO2 + H2O → Ca(HCO3)2 This reaction is important in the erosion of carbonate rocks, forming caverns, and leads to hard water in many regions.
Ca2+ (aq) + CO32- (aq) CaCO3(s)
• Hard water is water that has high mineral content (in contrast with soft water). Hard water has high concentrations of Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions
Ca2+ (aq) + 2F- (aq) CaF2(s)
Types of chemical reactions
• Single replacement• Double replacement• Decomposition• Combination • Combustion

Single Replacement Single Replacement ReactionsReactions
Replacement of:
Metals by another metal Hydrogen in water by a metal Hydrogen in an acid by a metal Halogens by more active halogens

The Activity Series of the The Activity Series of the MetalsMetals
Lithium Potassium Calcium Sodium Magnesium Aluminum Zinc Chromium Iron Nickel Lead Hydrogen Hydrogen Bismuth Copper Mercury Silver Platinum Gold
Metals can replace other metals provided that they are above the metal that they are trying to replace.
Metals above hydrogen can replace hydrogen in acids.
Metals from sodium upward can replace hydrogen in water
The Activity Series of the The Activity Series of the HalogensHalogens
Fluorine Chlorine Bromine Iodine
Halogens can replace other halogens in compounds, provided that they are above the halogen that they are trying to replace.
2NaCl(s) + F2(g) 2NaF(s) + Cl2(g)
MgCl2(s) + Br2(g) ???No Reaction

Double Replacement ReactionsDouble Replacement Reactions
The ions of two compounds exchange places in an aqueous solution to form two new compounds.
AX + BY AY + BX
One of the compounds formed is usually a precipitate, an insoluble gas that bubbles out of solution, or a molecular compound, usually water.
Combustion ReactionsCombustion ReactionsA substance combines with oxygen, releasing a large amount of energy in the form of light and heat.
Reactive elements combine with oxygen
P4(s) + 5O2(g) P4O10(s)
(This is also a synthesis reaction)
The burning of natural gas, wood, gasoline
C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)
Solubility and precipitation reactions
