    Study Notes

    Chemical Reactions and Equations

    • Chemical reactions involve changes in the nature and identity of substances
    • Chemical reactions are indicated by changes in state, colour, temperature, or gas evolution.
    • Activity 1.1 demonstrates chemical reactions by burning magnesium
    • Activity 1.2 shows a reaction between lead nitrate and potassium iodide solutions
    • Activity 1.3 highlights reactions involving zinc, hydrochloric acid and sulphuric acid
    • Chemical equations are concise representations of reactions, using chemical formulas instead of words
    • Reactants are substances undergoing change
    • Products are substances formed by the reaction
    • The general form of a chemical equation: Reactants → Products
    • Chemical equations must be balanced; the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation.
    • Activity 1.4 demonstrates a combination reaction, whereby two or more substances form a single product. (e.g., Calcium oxide reacting with water.)
    • Activity 1.5 demonstrates a decomposition reaction, where a reactant breaks down into two or more products, usually by heating. (e.g., Ferrous sulphate decomposing into ferric oxide, sulphur dioxide, and sulphur trioxide.)
    • Activity 1.6 further illustrates a decomposition reaction. (e.g., Lead nitrate decomposing into lead oxide, nitrogen dioxide and oxygen).
    • Activity 1.7 illustrates electrolysis of water that can be used to obtain elemental hydrogen or oxygen.
    • Activity 1.8 demonstrates a change in appearance caused by sunlight on silver chloride that breaks down into silver and chlorine.
    • Activity 1.9 demonstrates a single displacement reaction where one element in a compound is displaced by another element.
    • Activity 1.10 details a double displacement reaction where two compounds exchange ions to form two new compounds.
    • Activity 1.11 shows how oxidation happens when a substance gains oxygen and reduction happens when a substance loses oxygen.
