CHEMICAL REACTIONS
Example: Hydrogen + Oxygen Water H2 + O2 H2O + +
- Note there is not enough hydrogen to react with oxygen - It is necessary to balance equation. reactants + products
CONSERVATION OF MASS
During a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed. - i. e. the number of atoms of each element remains constant
- Sometimes it is more convenient to balance groups of atoms (polyatomic ions) than individual atoms. AgNO3 + CaCl2 Ca(NO3)2 + AgCl
- Balance NO3- ions rather than N and O atoms. Ba(ClO4)2 + Na2SO4 BaSO4 + NaClO4
2) Combustion - combination with O2 (as in burning fuel) - products are CO2, H2O and N2 2 C8H18 (l) + 25 O2 (g) 16 CO2 (g) + 18 H2O (g)
2,2,4 trimethylpentane (isooctane) is the major component of gasoline.
3) Decomposition A B + C - one substance decomposing into two or more substances a) decomposition of carbonates CaCO3 (s) CaO (s) + CO2 (g)
Calcium carbonate is the major component of seashells and egg shells.
c) many others
4) Single replacement reactions - when a metal ion in a compound is replaced with another metal ion SnSO4 (aq) + Ni (s) NiSO4 (aq) + Sn (s)
Tin bonds with iron very well and helps prevent the corrosion of iron. Tin cans are steel(iron) with thin covering of tin.
5) Metathesis (double replacement) reactions - cations and anions in two ionic compounds switch places Na2SO4 (aq) + Ba(C2H3O2)2 (aq) BaSO4 (s) + 2 NaC2H3O2 (aq)
Barium sulfate is ingested by X-ray patients to improve the visibility of GI tract to X-ray radiation.
6) Addition - combination reaction where a substance is added to a compound with a double bond.

THE MOLE
***A mole is 6.022 x 1023 items.*** 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 items Analogy 1 dozen = 12 items 18 eggs = 1.5 dz. - to convert from eggs from dozen, we need to multiply by conversion factor
18 eggs = 18 eggs 1 dz = 15 dz . 12 eggs
1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 items - 6.022 x 1023 is called Avogadros number and is abbreviated NA. 6.022 x 1023 molecules = 1 molemolecule 12.044 x 1023 molecules = 2 molemolecule Example: How many moles of atoms is 7.43 x 1021 atoms?
MOLAR MASS
Definition of Molar Mass Mass of 1 mole 12C is 12.000000 g BY DEFINITION Recall 1 atom of 12C is 12.000000 amu *This is not a coincidence* Definition of amu and a mole are made to ensure coincidence 1 amu = 1.66 x 10-27 kg = 1/NA grams 1 molC-12 = 12.000000 g 2 molC-12 = 24.000000 g
47.36 mol C 12 = 47.36 mol C 12 12.000000 g C 12 = 568.3 g C 12 mol C 12
C: 1 atom = 12 amu 1 mol = 12 g M(12C) = 12 g/mol 24 Mg: 1 atom = 24 amu 1 mol = 24 g M(24Mg) = 24 g/mol 56 Fe: 1 atom = 56 amu 1 mol = 56 g M(56Fe) = 56 g/mol
M(Ne) = 0.9048 (19.992 g/mol) + 0.0027 (20.994 g/mol) + 0.0925 (21.991 g/mol) = 20.18 g/mol - Note: example is the same as example for average atomic mass Example: How many moles of atoms are in 96.3 grams of carbon?
= 28.054 g/mol

THEORETICAL STOICHIOMETRY
- coefficients of balanced equations relate moles of reactants to moles of products Example: N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) 2 NH3 (g) +
- 1 mole of N2 is stoichiometrically equivalent to 2 moles of NH3. - in other words, for every 1 mole of N2 reacted, 2 moles of NH3 are produced. - 1 mol N 2 2 mol NH 3 - equivalence is only true for specific chemical reaction - equivalence can be considered a conversion factor 1 mol N 2 2 mol NH 3 or 1 mol N 2 2 mol NH 3 2 mol NH 3 1 mol N 2 - other equivalences are - 1 mol N 2 3 mol H 2 - 3 mol H 2 2 mol NH 3

PRACTICAL STOICHIOMETRY
- cant measure moles directly in the real world. - must measure amount of substance with grams. ***- cannot compare substances stoichiometrically by mass, must convert to moles.*** SCHEME: Mass of reactant (g)
M Molar mass
Example: For the reaction, NH3 (g) + HCl (g) NH4Cl (s), a) how much NH3 is needed to react with 92.3 g of HCl? 1) First convert grams of reactant to moles of reactant
b) How much ammonium chloride is produced when 92.3 g of HCl is fully reacted? - Note with dimensional analysis, we can do problems all on one line.
11
Example: For the reaction 4BaCO3 (s) + Y2(CO3)3 (s) + 6 CuCO3 (s) 2 YBa2Cu3O7 (s) + 13 CO2 (g) + 3 O2 (g) a) calculate how many grams of BaCO3 is needed to fully react with 0.104 g of CuCO3,
b) calculate how many grams of YBa2Cu3O7 is formed from 0.104 g of BaCO3 fully reacting.
Yttrium barium copper oxide (YBCO) is a superconducting ceramic. It is superconducting below a temperature of 95 K.
LIMITING REAGENTS
- Often starting materials are not available in proper stoichiometric proportions. - Given unbalanced amounts of reactants, we would like to know how much product could be produced. Analogy: Bicycle Factory The equation to make a bicycle is 2 wheels + 1 frame + 1 handlebar 1 bicycle If the parts inventory is as follows: 240 wheels 150 frames 135 handlebars, we ask ourselves - What reactant limits production? - How much product can be produced? Limiting reactant: wheels Production: 120 bicycles ***In limiting reagent problems, we need to compare moles to moles*** - need to convert all masses to moles - To find limiting reactant, calculate number of moles of product formed from each number of moles of reactant - Limiting reactant will yield lowest number of moles produced. (The lowest number of moles produced is the actual number of moles of product produced.)

Example: For the reaction 2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g) + 2 H2O (l) 2 H2SO4 (aq), if 5.6 mol of SO2, 4.8 mol of O2 and 28.8 mol of H2O are reacted together, a) how many moles of H2SO4 are produced? For the SO2: 5.6 mol SO
2
4.8 mol O 2
SO2 is limiting reactant and therefore 5.6 moles of H2SO4 is produced. b) how much O2 is remaining after reaction is complete? - to answer the question, we need to know how much O2 was used. - then O2 remaining is the amount of O2 reacted subtracted from the starting amount of O2. O2 used: 5.6 mol SO
2
1 mol O 2 2 mol SO 2
= 2.8 mol O 2
Example: For the reaction Zn (s) + CuCl2 (aq) ZnCl2 (aq) + Cu (s) a) How much copper metal is produced from the reaction of 2.00 g of Zn and 2.00 g of CuCl2?
Thus CuCl2 is the limiting reactant and the amount of copper produced is
13
b) How much reactant was left over? Since CuCl2 is the limiting reactant, all of it was consumed in the reaction. Thus some Zn is left over. Moles of Zn used
0.0149 mol Cu 1 mol Zn = 0.0149 mol Zn 1 mol Cu
Total original moles moles used = moles left over 0.0306 molZn 0.0149 molZn = 0.0157 molZn
0.0157 mol Zn 65.38 g Zn = 1.03g Zn 1mol Zn

COMBUSTION ANALYSIS
A mass of hydrocarbon is burnt with oxygen to produce CO2, H2O and N2. From the mass of CO2, H2O and N2 produced and mass of oxygen used, find the empirical formula for the compound. Ultimately, we want to find molar ratios that well use to find the empirical formula. 1. Convert mass of CO2 to moles of carbon atoms. - calculation yields moles of carbon in hydrocarbon sample.
CO2 (g) + KOH (s) KHCO3 (s)
2. Convert mass of H2O to moles of hydrogen atoms. - because there are two moles of hydrogen to one mole of water, multiply result by 2 to yield moles of hydrogen in hydrocarbon sample.
H2O (g) + CaCl2 (s) CaCl2 2H2O (s)
3. Convert mass of N2 to moles of nitrogen atoms. - because there are two moles of nitrogen atoms in one mole of nitrogen molecules, multiply result by 2 to yield moles of nitrogen in hydrocarbon sample. 4. Calculate moles of oxygen in products. - moles of oxygen = 2 moles of CO2 + moles of H2O 5. Calculate moles of oxygen in hydrocarbon - moles of hydrocarbon oxygen = moles of oxygen atoms in products moles of oxygen atoms used 6. Divide molar amounts by smallest of the values to find molar ratios in terms of whole numbers.

REACTION YIELDS
- an actual chemical process is rarely perfect - actual yield is less than theoretical perfect yield - we have been calculating theoretical yields - we often want to compare actual yield to theoretical yield Example: For the reaction Cr2O3 (s) + 2 Al (s) 2 Cr (s) + Al2O3 (s), 18.7 g of Chromium (III) oxide reacts to form 10.8 g of chromium metal. What the percent yield of this process?
% yield = actual yield 100% theoretical yield
