1. Section 2.6—Chemical Reactions If we’re going to do chemical reactions with antacids, we’d better know how to write them!
2. Chemical Reactions Watch as 2 H 2 and 1 O 2 undergo a chemical reaction Bonds and atoms are rearranged to form new compounds. 2 H 2 + O 2 2 H 2 O O O H H H H
3. Chemical Reactions Bonds and atoms are rearranged to form new compounds. The compounds in the end are different from those in the beginning Bonds are broken and formed between different atoms 2 H 2 + O 2 2 H 2 O O O H H O H H O H H H H
4. Chemical Equations The “sentence” of chemistry that shows how the starting materials and the final products of a chemical reaction
5. Examples of Chemical Equations Word equation: magnesium metal is reacted with aqueous hydrochloric acid to produce aqueous magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas Visualization Formula equation: Mg (s) + 2 HCl (aq) MgCl 2 (aq) + H 2 (g)
6. Parts of a Chemical Equation NaCl (aq) + AgNO 3 (aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO 3 (aq) Reactants States of matter Arrow Products The starting materials for the reaction—each compound is separated by a “+” s = solid l = liquid g = gas aq = aqueous (dissolved in water) Read as: Yields Produces Forms Makes etc. Formed in the reaction
