• Chemical reactions result in chemical changes.– Chemical changes occur when new substances

are created.– The original substance(s), called reactants,

change into new substance(s) called products.

• Chemical reactions can be written in different ways.

– A word equation:• Nitrogen monoxide + oxygen nitrogen dioxide

– A symbolic equation:• 22NO(gg) + O2(gg) 22NO2(gg)

STATE OF MATTERSTATE OF MATTER

- Letters indicate the state of each compound.

(aq) = aqueous/dissolved in water

(s) = solid

( ) = liquid

(g) = gas

COEFFICIENTSCOEFFICIENTS

- Indicates how many of each molecule there is.

-Ie: there are 2 molecules of NO.

• When a chemical reaction occurs, new compounds are created, BUT…– No new matter is created or destroyedNo new matter is created or destroyed; atoms are

just rearrangedrearranged as the atoms change partners change partners to form new compounds.

– If there are 3 atoms of oxygen in the reactants, there MUST be 33 atoms of oxygen in the products.

– Number of each atom in reactants = number of each Number of each atom in reactants = number of each atom in products.atom in products.

• The law of conservation of mass:– Mass of reactants = mass of products

If you could collect and measure all of the exhaust from this car, you would find that mass of reactants (gas + O2) = mass of products (exhaust).

• A balanced chemical equation balanced chemical equation shows all atoms and the coefficientscoefficients tells us how many molecules (and atoms) there are.– Balancing ensures ensures that the number of each number of each

atom atom is the same on both sides same on both sides of the reaction arrow.

Skeleton equation: CH4 + O2 H2O + CO2

Carbon = 11 Carbon = 11

Hydrogen = 44 Hydrogen = 22

Oxygen = 22 Oxygen = 33

Balanced equation: CH4 + 22O2 22H2O + CO2 Carbon = 11 Carbon = 11

Hydrogen = 44 Hydrogen = 44

Oxygen = 44 Oxygen = 44

The same number of atoms must be on

each side.
