20.1 Chemical Changes20.1 Chemical Changes

When you bite into your food, you chew it into smaller pieces.

Chewing does not alter the chemical composition of your food.

Chewing causes a physical change in your food.

A physical change is a change that affects only the physical properties of a substance (size, shape, and state).

The physical properties of ice can be changed by crushing it or by letting it melt.

The only difference between solid water (ice), liquid water, & water vapor is the amount of energy involved in each state.

Water vapor is the most energetic form of water.

Chemical Changes Chemical Changes

A chemical change is a change in a substance that involves breaking and reforming of chemical bonds to make one or more different substances.

So… when you chew your food, glands in your mouth produce saliva. This immediately breaks down complex molecules by breaking bonds.

Chemical changes are the result of chemical reactions.

They are also the breaking of bonds in one or more substances, & reforming of new bonds to create new substances.

How do you know when a chemical change has occurred?

When one or more starting substances are mixed & you get products that appear to be different from those staring substances.

This involves ENERGY!

Making a cake: You need flour, water, sugar,eggs….. Mix the ingredients together and bake it

in a oven. When the cake is done, a chemical

change has occurred. But how do you know?

Because none of the ingredients can go back to their original substance!

Chemical Reactions Chemical Reactions

A chemical reaction involves breaking the chemical bonds in one or more reactants and reforming chemical bonds into one or more products.

Reactants Products Reactants are substances that

change. Products are substances that are

formed.

Use chemical formulas that correspond to the elements & compounds in the reaction.

When chemical formulas and symbols are used to represent a reaction instead of using words, it is called a Chemical Equation.

Observe this chemical equation: CH4 + O2 CO2 + H2O This is technically not correct! It does not

agree with the Conservation of Atoms. This principle says that the number

of each type of atom on the reactants side must equal the number of each type of atom on the products side of the equation.

cont… The chemical equation is not

balanced because the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms are different on both sides of the equation.

To balance the equation, you must figure out what number to multiply each compound by in order to make the numbers add up!

To change the number of molecules of a compound, you can write a whole number “Coefficient” in front of the chemical formula.

When this happens, all of the types of atoms in that formula are multiplied by that number.

20.3 Conservation of Mass20.3 Conservation of Mass

Chemical reactions were a big mystery to people in the eighteenth century.

A scientist named Antoine Laurent Lavoisier (1743-94) stated that the total mass of the products of a reaction is equal to the total mass of the reactants.

This is known as the Law of Conservation of Mass.

Lavoisier showed that a “closed” system must be used when studying chemical reactions.

When chemicals are reacted in a closed container, you can show that the mass before & after the reaction is the same.

He placed 10.0 grams of mercury (II) oxide into a sealed container. He heated the container so that the mercury (II) oxide reacted to produce oxygen and mercury.

He observed the reaction, and noticed that the mercury (II) oxide bubbled and turned into a smaller amount of a silvery liquid.

In the reaction, 10.0 grams of mercury (II) oxide produced 0.7g of oxygen gas & 9.3g of mercury.
