Describing a Chemical Reaction
Indications of a Chemical Reaction
– Evolution of heat, light, and/or sound
– Production of a gas
– Formation of a precipitate
– Color change
Signs of Chemical Reactions
There are five main signs that indicate a chemical reaction has taken place:
release
input
change in color
change in odor
production of new
gases or vapor
input or release
of energy
difficult to reverse
Chemical Equations
aluminum oxide
Depict the kind of reactants and product
products
and their relative amounts in a reaction.
4 Al(s) + 3 O2(g)
2 Al2O3(s)
The letters (s), (g), and (l) are the
physical states of compounds.
The numbers in the front are called
stoichiometric coefficients.
Chemical Equations
4 Al(s) + 3 O2(g)
2 Al2O3(s)
aluminum oxide
sandpaper
4 g Al + 3 g O2 yield 2 g Al2O3
This equation means:
4 Al atoms + 3 O2 molecules yield 2 molecules of Al2O3
or
4 Al moles + 3 O2 moles yield 2 moles of Al2O3
4 mol Al@27g/mol

96 g
2 mol Al2O3@102g/mol

204 g
Chemical Equations
Because the same atoms are present
in a reaction at the beginning (reactants)
and at the end (products), the amount
of matter in a system does not change.

Chemical Equations
Because of the principle of the conservation of matter,
An equation must be balanced.
It must have the same number of atoms
of the same kind on both sides.
Lavoisier, 1788
Characteristics of Chemical Equations
• The equation must represent known
facts.
• The equation must contain the correct
formulas for the reactants and products.
• The law of conservation of mass must
be satisfied.
Chemical Equations
• Reactants – the substances that exist before a
chemical change (or reaction) takes place.
• Products – the new substance(s) that are formed
during the chemical changes.
• CHEMICAL EQUATION indicates the reactants and
products of a reaction.
REACTANTS  PRODUCTS
Word Equations
• A WORD EQUATION describes chemical change using
the names of the reactants and products.
Write the word equation for the reaction of methane gas
with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide and water.

Balancing Chemical Equations
Balanced Equation – one in which the number of
atoms of each element as a reactant is equal to the
number of atoms of that element as a product
What is the relationship between conservation of mass and
the fact that a balanced equation will always have the same
number of atoms of each element on both sides of an equation?
Determine whether the following equation is balanced.
2 Na + H2O  2 NaOH + H2
2 Na + 2 H2O  2 NaOH + H2
Balancing Chemical Equations
• Write a word equation for the reaction.
• Write the correct formulas for all reactants
and products.
• Determine the coefficients that make the
equation balance.
Balancing Chemical Equations
An important point to remember
2 NO(g) + O2(g)  2NO2(g)
The 2 to the left of NO(g) and NO2(g) refers to the number
of molecules present in the balanced equation.
It is a “multiplier” for every atom in the molecule.
The subscript 2 in O2 (g) and NO2(g) refers to the number
of atoms of this type that are present in each molecules
(or ionic compound).
Showing Phases in
Chemical Equations
H2O(s)
H2O(l)
H2O(g)
Solid Phase – the substance is relatively rigid and has a
definite volume and shape. NaCl(s)
Liquid Phase – the substance has a definite volume, but is
able to change shape by flowing. H2O(l)
Gaseous Phase – the substance has no definite volume or
shape, and it shows little response to gravity. Cl2(g)
Additional Symbols Used in Chemical Equations
“Yields”; indicates result of reaction
Used to indicate a reversible reaction
(s)
A reactant or product in the solid state;
also used to indicate a precipitate
Alternative to (s), but used only to indicate a precipitate
(l)
A reactant or product in the liquid state
(aq)
A reactant or product in an aqueous solution
(dissolved in water)
(g)
A reactant or product in the gaseous state
Additional Symbols Used in Chemical Equations
Alternative to (g), but used only to indicate a gaseous product
