Molecules vs Compounds
• Molecules are two or more atoms bonded together…but compounds must have two different elements
– Ex- O2, NaCl, etc.
REMEMBER: – Not all molecules are compounds, but all compounds
are molecules…explain

Chemical reactions continued
–Chemical reactions occur when bonds between the outermost parts of atoms are formed or broken• What do we call those “outermost parts”???• Valence electrons

Symbols represent elementsFormulas represent the molecules
Chemical equations represent the reaction

Law of conservation of matter“mass is neither created nor
destroyed in any ordinary chemical reaction. “
• Or more simply, the mass of substances produced (products) by a chemical reaction is always equal to the mass of the reacting substances (reactants).

• Ex’s– 1.00g carbon + 5.34g sulfur _____g carbon
disulfide?• 6.34g carbon disulphide
– 2.00g carbon + 10.68g sulfur _____g carbon disulfide? • 12.68g carbon disulphide
Law of conservation of matter

Balancing Equations
• To follow the law of conservation of mass, any equation must be BALANCED
• (Mass of reactants must equal the mass of the products)

BALANCING EQUATIONS
–When balancing a chemical reaction you may add coefficients in front of the compounds to balance the reaction, but
you may not change the …• subscripts.
• Changing the subscripts changes the compound. –H2O is very different that H2O2
– (Water vs Hydrogen Peroxide!)
![Page 10: Balancing Chemical Equations. Parts of a Chemical Equation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649de55503460f94adde86/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Subscripts tell you how many atoms
of each element you
have
Coefficients tell you how
many of each
molecule you have

Ex: 4 Al + 3 O2 2Al2O3
This equation means :“4 Al atoms + 3 O2 molecules
produces 2 molecules of Al2O3”

Steps to Balancing Chemical Equations
• 1. Write out the equation leaving room to add coefficients.
• Ex-
Na3PO4 + Fe2O3 Na2O + FePO4
![Page 13: Balancing Chemical Equations. Parts of a Chemical Equation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649de55503460f94adde86/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Step 2: Record how many atoms of each element
2. Find the number of atoms for each element on each side. – YOU MUST COMBINE ALL of the same element together…– ex
Na3PO4 + Fe2O3 Na2O + FePO4
» Na- 3 Na-2» P-1 P-1» O- 7 Fe- 1» Fe-2 O-5
HINT- write them in the same order on both sides so that it is easier to compare them
![Page 14: Balancing Chemical Equations. Parts of a Chemical Equation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649de55503460f94adde86/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
STEP THREEDetermine where to place coefficients in front of
formulas so that the left side has the same number of atoms as the right side for EACH element in order to balance the equation.
![Page 15: Balancing Chemical Equations. Parts of a Chemical Equation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649de55503460f94adde86/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
2 Na3PO4 +___ Fe2O3 3 Na2O + 2 FePO4
» Na- 3 6 Na-2 6» P-1 2 P-1 2» Fe- 2 Fe- 1 2»O- 7 11 O-5 9 11
![Page 16: Balancing Chemical Equations. Parts of a Chemical Equation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649de55503460f94adde86/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Step 4…4. Check your answer to see if:– The numbers of atoms on both sides of the
equation are now balanced.– The coefficients are in the lowest possible
whole number ratios. (reduced)

Some Helpful Hints for balancing equations:• Take one element at a time, working left
to right except for H and O. Save H for next to last, and O until last.• IF everything balances except for O, and
there is no way to balance O with a whole number, double all the coefficients and try again. (Because O is diatomic as an element)

Balancing Equations when given the name (not the formula)
• Use “reacts with” and “produces” or “yields”
• Ex-• Hydrogen reacts with Oxygen to produce
dihydrogen monoxide.
• Be able to write the chemical equation from the word equation or vice versa!
