MgSO4 + NaCl --> Na2SO4 + MgCl2
Label the reactants and the products
MgSO4 + NaCl --> Na2SO4 + MgCl2
Reactants Products
HgO → Hg + O2
Decomposition because one reactant (HgO) broke down into two products (Hg + O2)
Balance the equation:
Cu + O2 → CuO
2Cu + O2 → 2CuO
What information do you need to write the products for Ca + H2SO4 -->
Periodic table that shows the charges of the groups and a polyatomic list - do you have both of these to use on the test?
MgSO4 + NaCl --> Na2SO4 + MgCl2
How do we read the arrow?
yields or produces
Metals bonded to nonmetals creates what type of bond?
Ionic Bonds
CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O
Combustion because a hydrocarbon (CH4) reacted with an O2 to form CO2 and H2O
Balance the equation:
Sb + I2 → SbI3
2Sb + 3I2 → 2SbI3
What is the difference between an ionic and covalent bond?
Covalent bonds are between two nonmetal or metalloid atoms which share valence electrons compared to ionic bonds are between a metal and a nonmetal/metalloid that transfer electrons.
LiCl + NaOH -->
What are the new products if this is a double displacement
HOH + LiCl or H2O + LiCl
because all have a +1 charge so different subscripts are not needed.
MgSO4 + 2 NaCl --> Na2SO4 + MgCl2
a. What is the 2 in front of NaCl called?
B. What is the 4 behind the O called?
a. What is a Coefficient.
b. What is a subscript.
P + O2 → P4O10
Synthesis because two reactants (P + O2) combined into one new product (P4O10)
Balance the equation:
P4 + O2 → P2O3
P4 + 3O2 → 2P2O3
a. Write the correct formula for the product if Li reacts with O.
b. Is it ionic or covalent?
Li2O
Ionic - Metal and nonmetal
What is the hardest thing for you in this unit? Do you know where to find practice?
Answers will vary - most things can be practiced on chemquiz.net
What types of elements share electrons and what is this type of bond called?
Nonmetals and nonmetals share electrons and this type of bond is called a covalent bond.
CuCl2 + H2S → CuS + HCl
Double Replacement because the cations Cu and H traded anions Cl and S to make new molecules - CuS and HCl.
Balance the equation:
Fe2O3 + C → Fe + CO2
2Fe2O3 + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO2
Possible or not and why?
HNe
Not possible because Ne is a noble gas.
Why is it important to balance chemical equations?
Because law of conservation of matter is always preserved - meaning what ever you put in you must get the same elements and # of elements out even if they rearrange.
List the three other possible forms of matter symbols on an equation and how are they identified.
What state represents dissolved in water?
(s), (l), (g), (aq) - solid, liquid, gas, dissolved in water
and they are identified by placing the symbol in parentheses behind the formulas.
aqueous
Fe + CuSO4 ---> FeSO4 + Cu and how do you know?
The Fe displaces Cu and makes Cu a lone element while Fe bonds to the SO4 to create FeSO4 a new molecule/compound. - one new lone element and one new compound
____ Al2O3 + ___ NaCl --> ___ AlCl3 + ___ Na2O work backwards to figure out the charges for Al (Aluminum)
1 Al2O3 + 6 NaCl --> 2 AlCl3 + 3 Na2O
Possible or not and why?
MgP
Not possible because charges were not used correctly - Mg+2 P-3 would create Mg3P2 when the criss-cross method is used.
Give an example of a sign of a chemical reaction?
Change in temperature, formation of a gas- bubbles, produces an odor(smell), formation of a solid called a precipitate, change in color
