Document Summary

Chemistry: the study of matter its composition, its properties, and the charges it undergoes: energy. The energy produced by combustion (lighting fossil fuels) helps light our homes. There are chemical changes that are involved in the combustion of petroleum and other fossil fuels. Physical change: a transformation of matter that occurs without any change in chemical composition: distillation: separating a liquid by boiling it and condensing the vapor that results. Chemical change: a process that produces substances with new chemical compositions: combustion: the reaction of a fuel with oxygen to produce, cleaning heat and light. The active ingredients in soap are types of chemicals called surfactants. Surfactants: shortened form of surface-active agent; a chemical that accumulates at a liquid"s surface and changes the properties of that surface. Chemists incorporate surfactants into shampoos, shaving creams, laundry detergents, toothpastes, and multipurpose contact lens solutions: clothing and polymers. Polymers: a very large molecule formed by the repeated: food combination of much smaller molecules.

Chemical Reactions and Equations Learning objectives To observe physical and chemical properties associated with chemical changes To be able to give evidence for the occurrence of a chemical reaction To write a balanced chemical equation To identify areaction as a combination, decomposition, precipitation, single or double replacement, or combustion reaction ntroduction When a substance undergoes a physical change, it changes its appearance but not its composition. For example, when ice melts to form water, it undergoes a physical change from solid to liquid. In a chemical change, the composition of a substance is changed to give a new substance with different physical and chemical properties. For example, when silver tarnishes, the shiny silver (Ag) changes to a dull gray silver sulfide (AgaS). Not only has the chemical formula changed from Ag to Agus, but also the physical properties (shininess) of the substance have changed. Some examples of physical and chemical changes are listed in Table 1 below. Table 1. Comparison of Physical and Chemical Changes Examples of Physical changes Examples and Evidence of Chemical Changes Change in state (melting, freezing, evaporating Formation of a gas (bubbles) subliming) Formation of a solid (precipitate) Change in size Tearing Change in Color Heat is given off or absorbed A solid dissolving in a solvent In a chemical reaction, atoms in the reactants are rearranged to produce new combinations of atoms in the products. However, the total number of atoms of each element in the reactants is equal to the total number of atoms in the products. This is true according to the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that the total mass remains constant during a chemical reaction. In other words, matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. In a chemical equation, the reactants are shown on the left and the products are on the right. An arrow in between indicates that a chemical reaction occurs. Finally, the physical state of each compound is designated in parentheses after the chemical formula. Solid, liquid, gas, and aqueous (dissolved in water) are shown as(s,(n,(g), and (aq), respectively.
