8.5 Heat in Chemical Reactions
• Chemists use chemical equations to describe reactions they observe in the laboratory or in nature.
• Chemical equations provide us with the means to1.summarize the reaction
2.display the substances that are reacting
3.show the products
4.indicate the amounts of all component substances in a reaction.
The Chemical EquationThe Chemical Equation
• Chemical reactions always involve change.
• Atoms, molecules or ions rearrange to form new substances.
• The substances entering the reaction are called reactants.
• The substances formed in the reaction are called products.
• During reactions, chemical bonds are broken and new bonds are formed.
• A chemical equation uses the chemical symbols and formulas of the reactants and products and other symbolic terms to represent a chemical reaction.
• A chemical equation is a shorthand expression for a chemical change or reaction.
Coefficients (whole numbers) are placed in front of substances to balance the equation and to indicate the number of units (atoms, molecules, moles, or ions) of each substance that are reacting.

Writing andWriting andBalancing EquationsBalancing Equations
• To balance an equation adjust the number of atoms of each element so that they are the same on each side of the equation.
• Never change a correct formula to balance an equation.

Steps for Steps for Balancing EquationsBalancing Equations
Step 1 Identify the reaction. Write a description or word equation for the reaction.
Mercury (II) oxide decomposes to form mercury and oxygen.
mercury(II) oxide → mercury + oxygen

– The formulas of the reactants and products must be correct.
– The reactants are written to the left of the arrow and the products to the right of the arrow.
Step 2 Write the unbalanced (skeleton) equation.
The formulas of the reactants and products can never be changed.

Introduction to Stoichiometry:Introduction to Stoichiometry:The Mole-Ratio MethodThe Mole-Ratio Method
• Stoichiometry: The area of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between reactants and products.
• Mole Ratio: a ratio between the moles of any two substances involved in a chemical reaction.– The coefficients used in mole ratio
expressions are derived from the coefficients used in the balanced equation.

• The mole ratio is used to convert the number of moles of one substance to the corresponding number of moles of another substance in a stoichiometry problem.
• The mole ratio is used in the solution of every type of stoichiometry problem.
Identify the starting substance from the data given in the problem statement. Convert the quantity of the starting substance to moles, if it is not already in moles.
1 molemoles = grams
molar mass
Step 1 Determine the number of moles of starting substance.
The number of moles of each substance in the balanced equation is indicated by the coefficient in front of each substance. Use these coefficients to set up the mole ratio.
moles of desired substance in the equationmole ratio =
moles of starting substance in the equation
Step 2 Determine the mole ratio of the desired substance to the starting substance.
moles of desired substance
in the equationmoles of desired substance = moles of starting substance

in the equation
Step 2 Determine the mole ratio of the desired substance to the starting substance.
Multiply the number of moles of starting substance (from Step 1) by the mole ratio to obtain the number of moles of desired substance.
Step 3. Calculate the desired substance in the units specified in the problem.
• If the answer is to be in moles, the calculation is complete
• If units other than moles are wanted, multiply the moles of the desired substance (from Step 2) by the appropriate factor to convert moles to the units required.
Step 3. Calculate the desired substance in the units specified in the problem.

Limiting-Reactant and Limiting-Reactant and Yield CalculationsYield Calculations
• It is called the limiting reactant because the amount of it present is insufficient to react with the amounts of other reactants that are present.
• The limiting reactant limits the amount of product that can be formed.
• The limiting reactant is one of the reactants in a chemical reaction.
Steps Used to Determine Steps Used to Determine the Limiting Reactantthe Limiting Reactant
Steps Used to Determine Steps Used to Determine the Limiting Reactantthe Limiting Reactant
1. Calculate the amount of product (moles or grams, as needed) formed from each reactant.
2. Determine which reactant is limiting. (The reactant that gives the least amount of product is the limiting reactant; the other reactant is in excess.
3. Calculate the amount of the other reactant required to react with the limiting reactant, then subtract this amount from the starting quantity of the reactant. This gives the amount of the that substance that remains unreacted.
Reaction YieldReaction YieldReaction YieldReaction Yield
The quantities of products calculated from equations represent the maximum yield (100%) of product according to the reaction represented by the equation.
Many reactions fail to give a 100% yield of product.
This occurs because of side reactions and the fact that many reactions are reversible.
• The theoretical yield of a reaction is the calculated amount of product that can be obtained from a given amount of reactant.
• The actual yield is the amount of product finally obtained from a given amount of reactant.
• The percent yield of a reaction is the ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield multiplied by 100.
actual yield x 100 = percent yield
