Chemical Reactions
Reactions are chemical changes in which new substances form.
How do you know???? If the material looks different, smells different, behaves in a new way, guess what??? It IS different!!!
A chemical reaction is simply a REARRANGEMENT of atoms.

The Chemical Equation
2 Fe(s) + 3 Cl2(g) 2 FeCl3(s)
The chemical equation is a shorthand representation of the substances involved in a chemical reaction.
Reactants are on the left. Products are on the right.
The arrow means “produces” or “changes into”.
The letters in parentheses are the physical states of the substances:
(s) -- solid (l) -- liquid (g) -- gas (aq) -- aqueous
![Page 9: Unit 6 Chemical Reactions and Equations What They Represent & How to Balance Them](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f525503460f94c768f0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Chemical Equation
2 Fe(s) + 3 Cl2(g) 2 FeCl3(s)
The smaller numbers within a formula are called subscripts, indicating the number of each atom in the formula for a substance.
The larger numbers are called coefficients, indicating the number of atoms or molecules of each substance reacting or being produced in the chemical change.
![Page 10: Unit 6 Chemical Reactions and Equations What They Represent & How to Balance Them](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f525503460f94c768f0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Balanced Chemical Equation
What is it? A balanced chemical equation has the same
number of each type of atom on BOTH sides of the equation.
Why? All (non-nuclear) chemical reactions must
obey the law of conservation of mass. The mass of the reactants equals the mass of the products in ordinary chemical reactions.
![Page 11: Unit 6 Chemical Reactions and Equations What They Represent & How to Balance Them](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f525503460f94c768f0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Balanced Chemical Equation
How?Examine the chemical equation to see if there are the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.
If not, place coefficients in front of each formula to make them equal. Re-inventory each time a coefficient is added.
When counting the atoms of each element, the coefficient gets distributed onto each atom in the formula it precedes.

Balancing Equations
Two Helpful Hints 1. Balance H & O last. (usually)
2. If there is an even # on one side and an odd # on the other side, always change odd to even by making a common multiple.

4 Fe + 3 O2 2 Fe2O3

PREDICTING PRODUCTS IN CHEMICAL REACTIONS
How is it done?
One must know the type of reaction.
Then, elements must be combined, separated, or switched and recombined according to the type of reaction that occurs.
![Page 16: Unit 6 Chemical Reactions and Equations What They Represent & How to Balance Them](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649f525503460f94c768f0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Formulas for Products
The formulas for the products are determined by:
Switching charges for compounds Determining if a subscript is needed
for the stand alone elements. (Diatomic elements are H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, and I2) Most others have no subscript like Fe, Al, Mn, Si, and Xe.

SINGLE DISPLACEMENT A + BC B + AC
If A is a metal, it will replace B, the metal or H, in BC, releasing B as an element.
For the reaction to occur, A must be higher on the activity series than B. Otherwise, the reaction will not occur.

SINGLE DISPLACEMENTMg + HCl
Mg is a metal that will replace H in HCl. They switch places, releasing H as an element.
Check to see if H is diatomic. Yes, so H2. Check the charges of Mg and Cl. Mg+2 and Cl-1 , so MgCl2 is the formula. Then balance the final equation.

SINGLE DISPLACEMENT A + BC C + BA
If A is a non-metal, it will replace C, the nonmetal, in BC, releasing C as an element. BA will form as a compound in a ratio that depends on the charges.
For the reaction to occur, A must be higher on the activity series than C. Otherwise, the reaction will not occur.

COMBUSTIONCnHm + O2 CO2 + H2O
Simple combustion reactions involve the reaction of hydrocarbons with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.
Balance the C, H and O atoms in that order. If, in the end, there is an odd number of O atoms on the right, you may need to double the hydrocarbon by simply placing a 2 coefficient in front of the CnHm compound.
