A CHEMICAL EQUATION is a short way describing a chemical reaction in which symbols of the elements and the formulas of compounds represent the change.

C (s) + O2 (g)

CO2 (g)

Some Symbols Used in Writing Chemical Equations


Symbol Meaning

+
(s) or (l) (g) or (aq)

Separate two or more formulas


Yield(s) or Produce(s) Solid or Formation of precipitate Liquid Gas or Evolution of Gas Aqueous

Heat is supplied
cat

Catalyst is used

Ex. Manganese (II) Oxide as catalyst to decompose aqueous hydrogen peroxide, producing oxygen gas and liquid water.

2H2O2 (aq)

MnO

O2 (g) + 2H2O (l)

The word equation therefore is as follows: Mercury (II) Oxide


Heat

Mercury and Oxygen

Word equation changed into symbols and formula to give the chemical equation:

HgO

Hg + O2

The word equation therefore is as follows:

Magnesium + Oxygen Gas

Heat

Magnesium Oxide

Word equation changed into symbols and formula to give the chemical equation:

Mg (s) + O2(g)

MgO (s)

The guiding principle used in balancing chemical equations: LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS
- Atoms are neither created nor destroyed but merely rearranged during a chemical change.

A balanced chemical reaction must include same number of each kind of atoms on both sides of the equation:

2Mg (s) + O2(g)

2 MgO (s)

oThe number is called COEFFICIENT. oIt serves as multiplier for the whole formula

GOAL
write chemical equations from descriptions of chemical reactions using appropriate symbols; balance simple chemical equations based on the law of conservation of mass;

1. When dissolved beryllium chloride reacts with dissolved silver nitrate in water, aqueous beryllium nitrate and silver chloride powder was made.

BeCl2(aq) + AgNO3(aq) Be(NO3)2(aq) + AgCl(s)


BeCl2(aq) + 2 AgNO3(aq) Be(NO3)2(aq) + 2 AgCl(s)

2. When isopropanol (C3H8O) burns in

oxygen. Carbon dioxide, water, and heat are produced.

4. Plants carry out photosynthesisthe creation of glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide, water and sunlight;

CO2 (g) + H2O (l) C6H12O6 (s) + O2 (g)

6CO2 (g) + 6H2O (l) C6H12O6 (s) + 6O2 (g)

Self - Reflection
What questions and uncertainties do you still have about chemical reactions? How does what you have learned changed your thinking?

4. When fluorine gas is put into contact with calcium metal at high temperatures, calcium fluoride powder is created in an exothermic reaction.

F2(g) + Ca(s) CaF2(s)


F2(g) + Ca(s) CaF2(s)

5. When sodium metal reacts with iron (II) chloride, iron metal and sodium chloride are formed.
