Synthesis Reaction Two or more elements combine to form a more complex compound A + B ? AB Hand + kerchief ? handkerchief Example: C + Cl2 ? CCl4 Decomposition Reaction Breaks down compounds into simpler substances AB ? A + B Schoolbook ? school + book Example: Al2O3 ? Al + O2 Replacement Reaction A reaction in which one element replaces another in a compound, or two elements in different compounds trade places AB + C ? AC + B (Single) AB + CD ? AC + BD (Double) CHEMISTRY NOTES CHEMICAL REACTIONS EQUATIONS Signs Of Chemical Reaction 1. CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE A. Exothermic Reaction: releases energy in the form of heat. You can feel it getting “hotter” Signs Of Chemical Reaction 1. CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE B. Endothermic Reaction_: absorbs heat energy from the reactants. It feels “cooler” than it did at the beginning Signs Of Chemical Reaction 2. COLOR CHANGE - After mixing 2 things together, you see a color change (could also be physical) Signs of a Chemical Reaction 3. GAS PRODUCTION: bubbles are seen forming or being released from the reaction (could also be physical if boiling) Signs Of Chemical Reaction 4. SOLID PRODUCTION- a new, solid substance forms. If a solid is formed in a solution, the solid is called a Precipitate Signs Of Chemical Reaction 5. CHANGE IN PROPERTIES- A chemical reaction has occurred if the REACTANTS of the reaction are DIFFERENT from the PRODUCTS of the reaction. (Can’t get it back to what it was before the reaction.) Signs of a Chemical Reaction 6. LIGHT PRODUCTION- (Bioluminescent) RULES OF CHEMICAL RXNS Starting chemicals, elements or substances are called REACTANTS, because they are going to react to form something new. Rules Of Chemical Rxns Ending chemicals, elements or substances are called PRODUCTS, because they were produced in the reaction. RULES OF CHEMICAL RXNS All the ATOMS found at the start of a reaction must be present at the end of a reaction. This is the Law of Conservation of Matter (Mass) All matter (measured as
