Chemistry Multiple Intellegences 2

Chemical reactions involve the transformation of substances, resulting in new compounds through the rearrangement of atoms. These reactions are represented using word equations or balanced chemical equations, ensuring the same number of atoms on either side of the equation.

Unit 2: Chemical Reactions

Neutralization

Acids and bases can be added together to create a substance with a ph closer to 7

Acids

Substances with ph levels below 7

Chemical property: characteristic when a substance reacts

Spectator Ions: ions that appear on both sides of of a chemical equation but don't actually do anything.
One way to tell when a chemical reaction occurs, is when a precipitate forms. A precipitate is a solid forms in a liquid. This means the substance is insoluble.
When a substance is insoluble, it makes it easier to predict if substances will react.
Reactions can be shown in 2 ways:
Chemical equations: 2K + Cl2 = 2KCl

Chemical equations need to be balances to have the same number of molecules on either side of the equal sign

For example K + Cl2 = KCl becomes 2K + Cl2 = 2KCl to match the number of chlorine atoms in the first part of the equation(there are two because Chlorine is diatomic and will always be found in pairs when not part of a compound).

Word Equations: Sodium + chlorine = sodium chloride
A reaction that results in 1 or more new substances is considered a chemical reaction
In a chemical reaction atoms are neither created nor destroyed, just simply re arranged
corrosion
bleaching ability
flammability
Reaction with acids or bases

Bases

Substances with ph levels above 7

Types of reactions:

Double Displacement
two compounds react to form two different compounds
Single Displacement
In order to replace another element in a compound, the element trying to replace it will have to be higher on the activity series of metals in reactivity. The same thing can be said about halogens replacing halogens
an element and compound react and the element replaces one element in the compound
Decomposition
One substance breaks apart into a fewer amount of substances
Combination
Two or more substances to make a lesser number of substances

Physical Property: characteristic of substance

if no new substance is created a reaction is considered to be a physical reaction
state
melting point
solubility
smell
density
Texture
Color
