In a physical reaction an element remains the same element and a compound remains the same compound. Examples of physical reactions include melting, freezing, boiling, condensing and subliming. When a substance like water (H2O) freezes, it becomes ice, but its chemical formula (H2O) remains the same. When water boils it becomes steam, but the chemical formula (H2O) is still the same. Physical reactions also include subdivision, when a substance is broken into pieces. If a rock is ground into powder, the powder is the same substance as the rock was; the subdivision has resulted only in a physical change. A chemical change results when the atoms of one or more substances are rearranged to produce new substances with new properties. In a chemical reaction the atoms remain the same, but their arrangement changes. For instance: H2O H2 + O2 In this reaction water is broken down into two substances, oxygen gas and hydrogen gas. The two new substances bear no resemblance to the water of which they are made. In short, a physical reaction involves no change in the substance itself while a chemical reaction is necessarily a change in the substances involved. A chemical reaction can be identified by the following: a) b) c) d) a colour change gas production an energy change precipitate formation 3.1 Chemical Equations o o o o The quantitative nature of chemical formulas and reactions is called stoichiometry. Lavoisier observed that mass is conserved in a chemical reaction. o This observation is known as the law of conservation of mass. Chemical equations give a description of a chemical reaction. There are two parts to any equation: o reactants (written to the left of the arrow) and o products (written to the right of the arrow) H2O H2 + O2 reactants products o There are two sets of numbers in a chemical equation: o numbers in front of the chemical formulas (called stoichiometric coefficients) and o numbers in the formulas (they appear as subscripts). o o Stoichiometric coefficients give the ratio in which the reactants and products exist. The subscripts give the ratio in which the atoms are found in the molecule. o Example: H2O means there are two H atoms for each one molecule of water. 2H2O means that there are two water molecules present. o Note: in 2H2O there are four hydrogen atoms present (two for each water molecule). Balancing Equations • Matter cannot be lost in any chemical reaction. • Therefore, the products of a chemical reaction have to account for all the atoms present in the reactants--we must balance the chemical equation. • When balancing a chemical equation we adjust the stoichiometric coefficients in front of chemical formulas. • Subscripts in a formula are never changed when balancing an equation. • Example: the reaction of methane with oxygen: CH4 (g) + O2 (g) CO2 (g) + H2O (g) • • • • Counting atoms in the reactants yields: • 1 C; • 4 H; and • 2 O. In the products we see: • 1 C; • 2 H; and • 3 O. It appears as though an H has been lost and an O has been created. To balance the equation, we adjust the stoichiometric coefficients: CH4 (g) + 2 O2 (g) CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g) Now for another example we use a reaction between lead nitrate (Pb(NO 3)2) and sodium iodide (NaI), both of which produce clear solutions. When these solution react a solid yellow compound is produced called lead iodide (PbI 2), as well as another clear solution which contains sodium nitrate (NaNO 3). The reaction equation follows: Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + NaI (aq) PbI2 (aq) + NaNO3 (aq) Step 1: Tally up the number of each atom: 1 Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 1 NaI (aq) Pb = 1 Na = 1 I=1 N=2 O=6 1 PbI2 (aq) + 1 NaNO3 (aq) Pb = 1 Na = 1 I=2 N=1 O=3 Step 2: Begin balancing for each atom: This equation is already balanced for lead and sodium; the next on the list is iodine. 1 Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 NaI Pb = 1 Na = 2 I=2 N=2 O=6 (aq) 1 PbI2 (aq) + 1 NaNO3 (aq) Pb = 1 Na = 1 I=2 N=1 O=3 Note that the only way to increase the number of iodine atoms on the reactant side is to add another NaI molecule, thus increasing both the number of sodium and iodine atoms. This causes the number of sodium atoms to become unbalanced, so the number of sodium atoms on the product side must be increased, by adding another sodium nitrate molecule: 1 Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 NaI (aq) 1 PbI2 (aq) + 2 NaNO3 (aq) Pb = 1 Na = 2 I=2 N=2 O=6 Pb = 1 Na = 2 I=2 N=2 O=6 This action has an added benefit; the equation is now balanced for nitrogen and oxygen, as well as sodium. Indicating the States of Reactants and Products • The physical state of each reactant and product may be added to the equation: (s) (l) (g) (aq) (ppt) • CH4(g) + 2O2(g) CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) solid liquid gas aqueous (meaning that the compound is dissolved in water.) precipitate (meaning that the reaction produces a solid which falls out of solution.) Reaction conditions occasionally appear above or below the reaction arrow (e.g., "Δ" is often used to indicate the addition of heat). 3.2 Some Simple Patterns of Chemical Reactivity Types of Chemical Reactions There are six basic types of chemical reactions: 1) Synthesis (Combination) - the combination of two or more substances to form a compound. A + B AB another way to look at it is: element + element compound 2Mg(s) + O2(g) 2MgO(s) CaO (s) + CO2 (g) CaCO3 (s) 2) Decomposition - One substance breaks down to form two or more simpler substances. AB A + B another way to look at it is: compound element + element 2NaN3(s) 2Na(s) + 3N2(g) 3) Combustion - involves the burning of a hydrocarbon in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. CxHy + O2 CO2 + H2O C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l) 4) Single Replacement - reactions occur when one element is replaced by another in a compound. A + BC AC + B another way to look at it is: element + compound element + compound 2 Al (s) + 3 CuCl2 (aq) 3 Cu (s) + 2 AlCl3 (aq) 5) Double Replacement - reactions occur when the elements in a solution of reacting compounds exchange places, or replace each other. AB + XY another way to look at it is: AY + XB compound + compound compound + compound Pb(NO3)2 (aq0 + 2 KI (aq) PbI2 (ppt) + 2 KNO3 (aq) 5a) Water-forming - reactions make water as one of the products. HB + XOH XB + HOH another way to look at it is: acid + base salt + water HNO3 (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaNO3 (aq) + H2O (l) 3.3 Formula Weights Formula and Molecular Weights • Formula weight (FW) is the sum of atomic weights for the atoms shown in the chemical formula. • Example: FW (H2SO4) • = 2AW(H) + AW(S) + 4AW(O) • = 2(1.01 amu) + 32.07 amu + 4(16.00 amu) • = 98.09 amu. • Molecular weight (MW) is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in a molecule as shown in the molecular formula. • Example: MW (C6H12O6) • = 6(12.01 amu) + 12 (1.01 amu) + 6 (16.00 amu) • = 180.18 amu. • Formula weight of the repeating unit ( formula unit) is used for ionic substances. • Example: FW (NaCl) • = 22.99 amu + 35.45 amu • = 58.44 amu. The formula weight (in amu) is numerically equal to the molar mass (in g/mol). Always round the atomic weights to 2 decimal places. Percentage Composition from Formulas • Percentage composition is obtained by dividing the mass contributed by each element (number of atoms times AW) by the formula weight of the compound and multiplying by 100. % element = example: o o o o (number of atoms of that element)(a tomic weight of element)(1 00) (formula weight of compound) What is the percent composition of each element in H 2SO4 the formula weight is 98.09 amu (see calculation above) % H = 2(1.01 amu) x 100 = 2.06 % H 98.09 amu % S = 32.07 amu x 100 = 32.69 % S 98.09 amu % O = 4(16.00 amu) x 100 = 65.25 % O 98.09 amu the sum of the percent compositions will always equal 100 % 3.4 Avogadro’s Number and The Mole • • • The mole (abbreviated "mol") is a convenient measure of chemical quantities. 1 mole of something = 6.0221421 x 1023 of that thing. • This number is called Avogadro’s number. • Thus, 1 mole of carbon atoms = 6.0221421 x 1023 carbon atoms. Experimentally, 1 mole of 12C has a mass of 12 g. 6 Interconverting Masses and Moles • • Look at units: • Mass: g • Moles: mol • Molar mass: g/mol To convert between grams and moles, we use the molar mass. record the examples in class. Interconverting Masses and Number of Particles • • Units: • Number of particles: 6.022 x 1023 mol–1 (Avogadro’s number). • Note: g/mol x mol = g (i.e. molar mass x moles = mass), and • mol x mol–1 = a number (i.e. moles x Avogadro’s number = molecules). To convert between moles and molecules we use Avogadro’s number. record the examples in class 3.5 Empirical Formulas from Analyses • • • Recall that the empirical formula gives the relative number of atoms of each element in the molecule. Finding empirical formula from mass percent data: • We start with the mass percent of elements (i.e. empirical data) and calculate a formula. • Assume we start with 100 g of sample. • The mass percent then translates as the number of grams of each element in 100 g of sample. • From these masses, the number of moles can be calculated (using the atomic weights from the periodic table). • The lowest whole-number ratio of moles is the empirical formula. Finding the empirical mass percent of elements from the empirical formula. • If we have the empirical formula, we know how many moles of each element is present in one mole of the sample. • Then we use molar masses (or atomic weights) to convert to grams of each element. • We divide the number of grams of each element by the number of grams of 1 mole of sample to get the fraction of each element in 1 mole of sample. • Multiply each fraction by 100 to convert to a percent. Molecular Formula from Empirical Formula • • The empirical formula (relative ratio of elements in the molecule) may not be the molecular formula (actual ratio of elements in the molecule). Example: ascorbic acid (vitamin C) has the empirical formula C 3H4O3. • The molecular formula is C6H8O6. • To get the molecular formula from the empirical formula, we need to know the molecular weight, MW. • The ratio of molecular weight (MW) to formula weight (FW) of the empirical formula must be a whole number. Combustion Analysis • • • • • • Empirical formulas are routinely determined by combustion analysis. A sample containing C, H, and O is combusted in excess oxygen to produce CO 2 and H2O. The amount of CO2 gives the amount of C originally present in the sample. The amount of H2O gives the amount of H originally present in the sample. • Watch the stoichiometry: 1 mol H2O contains 2 mol H. The amount of O originally present in the sample is given by the difference between the amount of sample and the amount of C and H accounted for. More complicated methods can be used to quantify the amounts of other elements present, but they rely on analogous methods. 3.6 Quantitative Information from Balanced Equations • • • • • The coefficients in a balanced chemical equation give the relative numbers of molecules (or formula units) involved in the reaction. The stoichiometric coefficients in the balanced equation may be interpreted as: • the relative numbers of molecules or formula units involved in the reaction or • the relative numbers of moles involved in the reaction. The molar quantities indicated by the coefficients in a balanced equation are called stoichiometrically equivalent quantities. Stoichiometric relations or ratios may be used to convert between quantities of reactants and products in a reaction. It is important to realize that the stoichiometric ratios are the ideal proportions in which reactants are needed to form products. • The number of grams of reactant cannot be directly related to the number of grams of product. • To get grams of product from grams of reactant: • convert grams of reactant to moles of reactant (use molar mass), • convert moles of one reactant to moles of other reactants and products (use the stoichiometric ratio from the balanced chemical equation), and then • convert moles back into grams for desired product (use molar mass). 3.7 Limiting Reactants • • • • It is not necessary to have all reactants present in stoichiometric amounts. Often, one or more reactants is present in excess. Therefore, at the end of reaction those reactants present in excess will still be in the reaction mixture. The one or more reactants that are completely consumed are called the limiting reactants or limiting reagents. • Reactants present in excess are called excess reactants or excess reagents. • Consider 10 H2 molecules mixed with 7 O2 molecules to form water. • The balanced chemical equation tells us that the stoichiometric ratio of H 2 to O2 is 2 to 1: 2H2(g) + O2(g) 2H2O(l) • This means that our 10 H2 molecules require 5 O2 molecules (2:1). • Since we have 7 O2 molecules, our reaction is limited by the amount of H2 we have (the O2 is present in excess). • So, all 10 H2 molecules can (and do) react with 5 of the O2 molecules producing 10 H2O molecules. • At the end of the reaction, 2 O2 molecules remain unreacted. Theoretical Yields • The amount of product predicted from stoichiometry, taking into account limiting reagents, is called the theoretical yield. Percent yield = • • actual yield 100 theoretica l yield This is often different from the actual yield -- the amount of product actually obtained in the reaction. The percent yield relates the actual yield (amount of material recovered in the laboratory) to the theoretical yield:
