Objectives for the day…
1. Construct chemical equations, with state
symbols, including ionic equations.
2. Interpret chemical equations with state
symbols.
3. Construct ionic chemical equations.
Objective 1: Constructing chemical equations, with
state symbols, including ionic equations
• An equation can be written in words – a word
equation.
sodium + chlorine  sodium chloride
• An equation can also be written with symbols
and formulae instead of words – a chemical
equation.
2Na + Cl2  2NaCl

In a Chemical Reaction:
A process in which at least one new substance is
produced as a result of chemical change
– Reactants used.
– Products formed.

Analogy
Ingredients:
12 oz of dough
4 oz mushroom
12 slices pepperoni
8 oz cheese
5 oz tomato sauce
These ingredients are used to make a pizza.
How would you write the recipe in word equation
for putting together a pizza?
12 oz dough + 4 oz mushroom + 12 slices pepperoni + 8 oz
cheese + 5 oz tomato sauce  1 pizza

Constructing Chemical Equations
What Chemical Equations Show
• The reactants used.
• The products formed.
• The states of the reactants and products.
• The arrow means ‘react to form’ and reaction
proceeds from left to right).

Products
Eg: 2Mg (s) + O2(g)
State symbols
2MgO (s)

Constructing Chemical Equations
The Reaction Between Hydrogen and Oxygen
• Word equation:
hydrogen + oxygen
water
State symbol
• Chemical equation:
2H2(g) + O2(g)
2H2O(l)

Constructing Chemical Equations
Balancing Equations
• All chemical equations (with state symbols) must
be balanced.
• A balanced equation:
0 shows the formulae of all the reactants and all the
products in a reaction.
0 has the same number of atoms of each element on
both sides of the equation.
Law of Conservation

Balancing equation
Step
1
Write down the formula of the reactant and products.
2
Check the number of atoms of each element on both
sides of the equation. If the equation is not balanced,
proceed to step 3.
3
Balance the equation by placing numbers in front of
the formulae of the substances in the equation. The
number ‘1’ is not written.
4
Includes the state symbols in the equation.
12
Balancing equation
Step
1
Write down the formula of the reactant and
products.
Methane + oxygen  carbon dioxide + water
CH4 + O2  CO2 + H2O

Balancing equation
Step
2
Check the number of atoms of each element on
both sides of the equation.
If the equation is not balanced, proceed to step 3.
CH4 + O2  CO2 + H2O
C atom = 1
H atoms = 4
O atoms = 2
C atom = 1
H atoms = 2
O atoms = 2 + 1 = 3

3
Balance the equation by placing numbers in front of
the formulae of the substances in the equation. The
number ‘1’ is not written.
CH4 + 2 O2  CO2 + 2H2O
C atom = 1
H atoms = 4
O atoms = 4
C atom = 1
H atoms = 4
O atoms = 4
