Conservation of Mass
► Antoine Lavoissier - Father of Chemistry
• developed rules of
quantitative chemistry
• measured the masses of all
reactants and products
• Law of Conservation of Mass
Law of Conservation of Mass
► What goes in….must come out!
Balancing Equations
► Reactants = substances combined that go
into the reaction
► Products = new substances formed that
come out of the reaction
Reactants Products
Balancing Equations
► law of conservation of mass: mass of the
reactants must equal mass of the products
mass Reactants mass Products
► We now know that (#atoms)(atomic mass) = mass
► This means that:
#atoms Reactants #atoms Products
Rules - Balancing Equations
1. Count the atoms of one element on both
sides of the equation
N2 + H2 NH3
2. Use coefficients (multiples) to increase
atoms of an element
N2 + 3H2 2NH3
3. NEVER change a formula (change/insert a
subscript)
N2 + H3 N2H3
Balancing Reactions
Al + O2 Al2O3
Balancing Equations - practice
1. H2 + O2 ----> H2O
2. Mg + P4 ---> Mg3P2
3. Cu + O2 ----> Cu2O
Balancing Equations - tips
► Lookfor polyatomic ions
► Count the ion as a unit
CaCl2 + AgNO3 ----> AgCl + Ca(NO3)2
Balancing Equations - tips
► Checkfor elements that occur more than
once on one side of an equation – sum the
atoms.
(NH4)2CO3 ---> NH3 + CO2 + H2O
Balancing Equations - tips
► If you are balancing a combustion
reaction, balance in this order:
1. Balance C
2. Balance H
3. Check if the coefficient in front of H2O is odd or even
4. Double coefficients (except O2) if odd
5. Balance O2
C2H6 + O2 CO2 + H2O

Organic Compounds
► Organic compound = a compound containing
carbon atoms
► Derived from living tissues
► ALL organic compounds must contain
carbon, but not all compounds that contain
carbon are organic!
Organic Compounds
► Carbon atoms have valence electrons.
► carbon atoms must bond times.
► The element that most commonly bonds to
carbon is hydrogen
Methane
► Methane (CH4) : the simplest organic molecule
► Used for chemistry lab burners
Hydrocarbons
► Hydrocarbon = a molecule formed by a
chain of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms
bonding to the chain
Alkanes
► Alkane = generic name for all
hydrocarbons that have only single bonds
between atoms in the carbon chain
► The prefix “alk-” is changed to show how
many carbon atoms are in the chain
1 – meth 6 – hex
2 – eth 7 – hept
3 – prop 8 – oct
4 – but 9 – non
5 – pent 10 - dec

Name Structural Ball and Stick
Molecular Formula Model
Formula
Alkenes and Alkynes
► Alkene = has a
double bond in the
carbon chain
► Alkyne = has a
triple bond in the
carbon chain
Determining Formulas
► There are 2 methods for determining a
formula from a name:
1. Draw the molecule and count the carbons and
hydrogens
Draw propene:
2. Use the following formulas:
a) Alkane: #H = 2(#C) + 2
b) Alkene: #H = 2(#C)
c) Alkyne: #H = 2(#C) - 2

Aromatics
► Aromatic: is a “cyclic” hydrocarbon
► Cyclic hydrocarbons form ring structures
instead of chains
► Cycloalkanes have distinct odors
Aromatics
► Benzene: an important cyclic hydrocarbon
used in industrial applications

Writing Equations
► Equation: shorthand for writing a
chemical reaction (more formulas!)
► Remember the 7 diatomic elements:
H,N,O,F,Br,Cl,I
► Symbols:
1. Yields, forms, makes: ()
2. Solid (s) or precipitate (), liquid (l), gas (g)
or (), aqueous (aq)
Writing Equations
1. Hydrogen and oxygen combine to yield
water.
2. Calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid
react to form water, carbon dioxide, and
calcium chloride.

Synthesis
► Synthesis (combination): forming 1
substance from 2 or more substances
► General form:
A + B AB
► Specific Example:
H2 + O2 H2O
*Key: look for one product
Decomposition
► Decomposition: the breaking down of 1
substance into 2 or more substances
► General Form:
AB A + B
► Specific Example:
CaCO3 CaO + CO2
*Key: Look for 1 reactant
Displacement Reactions
► Displacement : one thing takes the place
of or pushes out another thing
Water displaced
by a rock
Single Displacement
► General Form:
Ann-Tom + Crystal Crystal-Tom + Ann
AT + C A + CT
► Specific Example:
Zn + HCl ZnCl2 + H2
Single displacement: the replacement of 1 element
in a compound by another
*Key: Look for 1 element plus 1 compound on both
sides of the reaction
Single Displacement
► AgNO3 + Cu ???
Double Displacement
► General Form:
Ann-Bob + Crystal -Tom Crystal-Bob + Ann-Tom
AB + CT CB + AT
► Specific Example:
Na2O + FeCl3 Fe2O3 + NaCl
Double displacement: the replacement of 1
element in a compound by another element from
a 2nd compound
*Key: Look for 2 compounds on both sides of the reaction
Double Replacement
1. HCl + NaHCO3
1. PbNO3 + KI
Activity Series
Activity Series
► Activity series : a list in order of reactivity
of elements
► Practice: determine if the following single
replacement reactions will occur
1) Pb + MgCO3
2) Li + CuCl2
3) Na + H2O
Solubility
► Solubility = the ability of an ionic
compound to dissociate to its ions in water
► Ex: NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Solubility
► Some salts are soluble (above), some aren’t.
Strong bonds between the ions may
prevent them from dissociating.
Solubility Rules
Solubility Rules
Precipitation Reaction
►A precipitate is a solid that forms out of
solution.
► A precipitation reaction is a double
displacement reaction that occurs
► NO reaction occurs if a precipitate does NOT
form
Precipitation Reaction
► Soluble NaCl + soluble
AgNO3 are reacted.
► AgCl and NaNO3 are the
possible products after
displacement
► the solubility rules are
used to determine that
AgCl is NOT soluble.
AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s)
Precipitation Reactions
► Will the following double displacement
reactions occur?
► If so, what is the formula for the
precipitate?
1) PbNO3 + NaCl
2) Li2SO4 + NH4Br
Predicting Products
► In order to predict the products of a
reaction, first classify the reaction.
► Use the Activity Series or the Solubility
Rules where applicable.

Predicting Products
► Classify reaction and finish based on type of

► Use the reference package for help!!
► Use Activity Series for SR reactions
► Use Solubility Rules for DR reactions

- this is the ONLY step that can be used
to switch from one substance to another!
► Mol-mass problems: 2 steps
► Mass-mass problems: 3 steps
► 2 givens: 2 problems
- limiting reagent: reactant that makes
less product
- % yield = actual/theoretical
