Study Notes

  • Chemical reactions involve changes in matter.
  • The mass of reactants equals the mass of products in a chemical reaction.
  • Atoms are neither created nor destroyed, but rearranged.

Chemical Formulas

  • The chemical formula for magnesium hydroxide is Mg(OH)2.
  • In KClO3, one formula unit contains 1 potassium (K), 1 chlorine (CI), and 3 oxygen (O) atoms.

Balanced equations

  • The correctly balanced equation Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂ has coefficients 1, 3, 2, 3.
  • H₂ + Br₂ → 2HBr is a balanced equation.
  • 4Al₂O₃ contains 8 aluminum (Al) atoms and 12 oxygen (O) atoms.

Reaction types

  • Gasoline combusting in a car engine represents a chemical reaction.
  • Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g) is a single replacement reaction.
  • 2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl is a balanced equation.
  • Decomposition involves a single reactant breaking down into other substances.

Predicting Reactions

  • The reaction Pb + Ca(C₂H₃O₂)₂ → Ca + Pb(C₂H₃O₂)₂ will not occur because lead cannot replace calcium.
  • Fluorine will replace chlorine in an anionic single replacement reaction to produce chlorine gas.
  • A single replacement reaction occurs when sodium is placed in water.
  • A solid that separates from a solution during a chemical reaction is called a precipitate.
  • When strontium metal is added to a solution of aluminum chloride, aluminum metal is produced.
  • (aq) symbolizes a substance dissolved in water in a chemical equation.
  • A chemical formula written over the arrow in a chemical equation signifies a catalyst for the reaction.
  • The correctly balanced chemical formula equation is NH₄NO₂(s) → N₂(g) + 2H₂O(l) with coefficients 1, 1, 2.
  • The reaction Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2HBr → CaBr₂ + 2HNO₃ will not occur.
  • No precipitate will form when solutions of CaCO₃ and Al₂(SO₄)₃ are mixed together, all products are soluble.

Reaction Identification

  • Ca + O₂ → CaO represents synthesis.
  • C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O represents combustion.
  • NH₄NO₂ → NH₃ + H₂O represents decomposition.
  • Al + Fe(NO₃)₂ → Al(NO₃)₃ + Fe represents single replacement.
