    Study Notes

    Learning Objectives

    • Observe chemical reactions and identify evidence of a chemical change
    • Gain familiarity with the chemistry of transition metals
    • Practice filtration techniques
    • Solve stoichiometry problems, including limiting reagents, theoretical yield, and percent yield calculations

    Chemical and Physical Changes

    • Chemistry studies matter, its properties, changes, and associated energy
    • Properties describe the characteristics of matter
    • Chemical properties are determined from reactions a substance undergoes
    • Chemical reactions are written as equations using symbols
    • Changes in a substance's properties during a reaction indicate a chemical change, forming new substances

    Chemical Equation Symbols

    • +: Separates substances on the same side of an equation
    • : Separates reactants from products
    • Δ: Indicates reactants are heated to cause a reaction
    • (s): Solid state
    • (l): Liquid state
    • (g): Gaseous state
    • (aq): Aqueous (dissolved in water) state

    Recording Observations

    • Careful observation is crucial in chemistry experiments
    • Observations provide clues about reactions
    • Recording colour changes accurately is essential
    • Observations should be thorough and unambiguous
    • Don't rely on memory; record observations as they happen
    • If unexpected results occur, repeat the experiment

    Types of Chemical Reactions

    • Chemical reactions involve rearrangement of atoms, not creation or destruction
    • Balanced equations accurately represent reactions

    Synthesis/Combination

    • Two or more elements/compounds form a more complex product
    • Example: C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

    Decomposition

    • A single complex reactant breaks down into multiple simpler products
    • Example: CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

    Single Replacement

    • One element replaces an element in a compound
    • Example: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

    Double Replacement/Metathesis

    • Elements in two compounds "switch places"
    • Often forms a precipitate or a molecular compound
    • Example: AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

    Combustion

    • A substance reacts with oxygen to produce energy and other products
    • Example: CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g)

    Aqueous Reactions and Pigments

    • Aqueous solutions involve water as a solvent, important in many chemical reactions
    • Precipitation and acid-base reactions are common types in aqueous solutions
    • Pigments are coloured substances insoluble in water, used in paints, inks, plastics
    • Natural and synthetic pigments exist
    • Many coloured compounds result from the absorption of different wavelengths of light by atoms or molecules, and the reflected light defines the color of an object
    • Transition metal compounds are often colored due to d-orbital splitting
    • Malachite is a green copper-based pigment, used in ancient Egyptian paintings
    • Verdigris is another copper-based pigment, used since ancient times
    • Numerous techniques are used in chemical labs to purify chemicals, and conduct accurate analysis

    Laboratory Techniques

    • Filtration is a technique used to separate solids from liquids, using paper filters
    • Stirrers are used to mix substances in chemical reactions
    • Various equipment is used in the methods of filtration, and stirring

    Coordination Compounds

    • Coordination compounds involve a central metal ion bonded to ligands (molecules or ions)
    • Ligands donate electrons to the metal ion, forming bonds
    • Water molecules can act as ligands in many chemical reactions, forming complexes.
