Study Notes

Chemical Reactions and Equations

  • A complete chemical equation represents the reactants, products, and their physical states symbolically.
  • A chemical equation must be balanced to ensure the same number of atoms of each type on both the reactant and product sides.

Types of Chemical Reactions

  • Combination Reaction: Two or more substances combine to form a new single substance.
  • Decomposition Reaction: A single substance decomposes to give two or more substances.
  • Displacement Reaction: An element displaces another element from its compound.
  • Double Displacement Reaction: Two different atoms or groups of atoms (ions) are exchanged.
  • Precipitation Reaction: Produces insoluble salts.

Oxidation and Reduction

  • Oxidation: Gain of oxygen or loss of hydrogen by substances.
  • Reduction: Loss of oxygen or gain of hydrogen by substances.

Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions

  • Exothermic Reaction: Reactions where heat is given out along with the products.
  • Endothermic Reaction: Reactions where energy is absorbed.

Examples of Chemical Reactions

  • Calcium hydroxide + Carbon dioxide → Calcium carbonate + Water
  • Zinc + Silver nitrate → Zinc nitrate + Silver
  • Aluminium + Copper chloride → Aluminium chloride + Copper
  • Barium chloride + Potassium sulphate → Barium sulphate + Potassium chloride
