Study Notes
Chemical Changes and Reactions
- Chemical reactions involve the formation of new substances with distinct properties.
- Observable signs of chemical reactions include gas evolution, precipitate formation, and changes in color, temperature, or state.
Thermodynamics of Chemical Reactions
- Exothermic reactions release heat during the reaction process.
- Endothermic reactions absorb heat from their surroundings.
Chemical Equations
- Balanced chemical equations maintain equal atom counts for each element on both the reactant and product sides.
- Additional information can enhance a chemical equation, such as:
- Physical states of reactants and products (solid, liquid, gas).
- Heat changes associated with the reaction.
- Specific conditions required for the reaction to proceed.
Types of Chemical Reactions
- Further classification of reactions into various types helps in understanding chemical processes more clearly.
