    Study Notes

    Chemical Symbols in Equations

    • (g), (l), (aq), and (s) are used to denote the gaseous, liquid, aqueous (dissolved in water), and solid states of reactants and products, respectively.

    Balancing Chemical Equations

    • The number of atoms of each element on the reactant side must equal numbers on the product side.
    • Balancing occurs by adding coefficients in front of chemical formulas.

    Reaction Conditions

    • Temperature, pressure, or catalysts can be indicated above and/or below the arrow in a chemical equation.

    Combination Reactions

    • Two or more substances combine to form a single product.
    • Heat is usually released (exothermic reaction).
    • The burning of coal (C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g)), and the formation of water (2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)) are examples of combination reactions.

    Decomposition Reactions

    • A single reactant breaks down into two or more simpler products.
    • Heating ferrous sulphate crystals (FeSO4. 7H2O) is an example.

    Thermal Decomposition Reaction

    • Decomposition reaction driven by heat.
    • Example: decomposing limestone (CaCO3(s)) into quicklime (CaO(s)) and carbon dioxide (CO2(g)).

    Electrolysis of Water

    • Water can be decomposed using electricity (electrolysis).
    • The process produces hydrogen gas (H2) at the cathode and oxygen gas (O2) at the anode.

    Types of Chemical Reactions

    • Combination
      • Two or more substances combine to form a single product.
      • Example: 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)
    • Decomposition
      • A single reactant breaks down into two or more simpler products.
      • Example: CaCO3(s) → CaO(s) + CO2(g)
    • Displacement
      • One element replaces another element in a compound.
      • Example: Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) → FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s)
    • Double Displacement
      • Ions of two reactants switch places.
      • Example: AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)
    • Precipitation
      • An insoluble solid (precipitate) forms from a reaction in a solution.
      • Example: BaCl2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) → BaSO4(s) + 2NaCl(aq)
    • Exothermic reactions
      • Reactions that release heat.
      • Example: Burning of natural gas (CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g))
    • Endothermic reactions
      • Reactions that absorb heat.
      • Example: Melting of ice (H2O(s) → H2O(l))

    Oxidation and Reduction

    • Oxidation: Gain of oxygen or loss of hydrogen.
      • Example: 2Cu(s) + O2(g) → 2CuO(s)
    • Reduction: Loss of oxygen or gain of hydrogen.
      • Example: CuO(s) + H2(g) → Cu(s) + H2O(l)
