Conservation in Chemical Reactions

The number of atoms of each element remains the same throughout a chemical reaction.

Combustion Reaction

A chemical reaction that involves rapid reaction between a substance with an oxidant, usually oxygen, to produce heat and light.

Balanced Equation: 2 C2H6 + 7 O2

Gives the information about the number of moles that is required to react completely with one mole of C2H6.

(s) in Chemical Equations

Indicates that the substance is in a solid state and is insoluble in water.

Study Notes

  • The number of atoms of each element must be conserved in a chemical reaction.
  • A characteristic of a combustion reaction is a reaction with oxygen.
  • For the combustion of ethane (C2H6), 3.5 moles of O2 are required to react completely with 1 mole of C2H6, according to the balanced equation 2 C2H6 + 7 O2 → 4 CO2 + 6 H2O.
  • A solid state in a chemical equation is represented by "(s)".
  • If a reaction produces 10.0 g of product and the theoretical yield is 12.5 g, the percent yield is 80%.
  • In the reaction A + 2B → C, if 2 moles of A are reacted with 5 moles of B, A is the limiting reactant.
  • Molarity (M) is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution.
  • A solution in which water is the solvent is called an aqueous solution.
  • If you dilute 50.0 mL of a 2.0 M solution to 200.0 mL, the concentration of the new solution is 0.50 M.
  • A strong electrolyte, when dissolved in water, will conduct electricity.
  • According to the solubility rules, AgCl is generally insoluble in water.
  • In a precipitation reaction, a solid precipitate is formed.
  • Ions that do not participate in a chemical reaction and appear unchanged on both sides of the complete ionic equation are called spectator ions.
  • HNO3 is a strong acid.
  • In an acid-base neutralization reaction, the typical products are salt and water.
  • Carbon dioxide (CO2) is typically produced when a carbonate reacts with an acid.
  • In a redox reaction, the substance that loses electrons is said to be oxidized.
  • The reactant that causes another substance to be reduced and is itself oxidized is called an oxidizing agent.
  • The oxidation state of sulfur in H2SO4 is +6.
  • Electromagnetic radiation is best described as perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
  • The distance from one crest of a wave to the next is called the wavelength.
  • Violet has the shortest wavelength of visible light.
  • The wavelength and frequency of light are inversely proportional.
  • Einstein explained the photoelectric effect by proposing that light consists of quantized packets of energy called photons.
  • The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency.
  • When an atom absorbs energy, an electron moves to a higher energy level.
  • The pattern of particular wavelengths of light emitted by an atom is called its emission spectrum.
  • Bohr's model proposed that electrons in atoms have quantized energy levels.
  • The principal quantum number (n) characterizes the energy and size of an orbital.
  • The angular momentum quantum number (l) determines the shape of an orbital.
  • The magnetic quantum number ml specifies the orientation of an orbital in space.
  • There are 3 p orbitals in a given energy level (n > 1).
  • Orbitals with the same value of n and l are in the same sublevel.
  • When an electron transitions from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, a photon of light is emitted.
