Chemical Reactions, Formulas, and Equations
Chemical Formulas Element Symbols Subscripts Number written below and to the right of a chemical symbol. Shows the number of atoms of each element. C6 H12O6 Subscripts Chemical formula - A shorthand notation for a compound or diatomic element. Shows the elements and how many atoms of each element are in the compound/molecule.
Signs of a Chemical Reaction Clues to chemical reaction 1. Gas Formation 2. Precipitate 3. Color Change 4. Energy Change 5. Sound 6. Light 7. Odor
Chemical Reactions Chemical reaction a process by which one or more substances undergo a chemical change (React) to produce one or more different (New) substances. New substances form because chemical bonds break and form new bonds. Different _________ and ________ properties Physical Chemical Chemical Reactions are shown by writing chemical equations.
Chemical Equations and Parts REACTANTS 2H2 + O2 PRODUCTS Yields 2H2O Coefficients Chemical Equation A representation of a chemical reaction where the reactants and products are expressed in formulas Reactants - Starting materials that change Products New substances formed Ending Materials _______________ produce the _________________. Coefficients Number placed in front of a formula to balance equations. Reactants Products
