1 Introduction to Chemical Reactions Making new substances

2 Chemical Reactions are Everywhere CookingRespiration

3 Hair Dye Auto Fuel

4 Clues to a Chemical Reaction Color Change Precipitate Formation

5 Clues to Chemical Reactions Gas Formation Odor

6 Clues to Chemical Reactions Temperature Change Change in Acidity (pH)

7 Representing Chemical Reactions Reactions are shown using chemical equations Solid Sodium combines with Chlorine gas to make solid Sodium Chloride: 2Na (s) + Cl2 (g)  2NaCl

8 Parts of Chemical Equations

9 Symbols used in Chemical Equations SymbolPurpose +Separates more than one reactant or product  Separates reactants from products. Indicates direction of reaction (s)Identifies a solid state (aq)Identifies that something is dissolved in water (l)Identifies liquid state (g)Identifies gaseous state

10 Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions “Exo-” means exit Energy is released by the reaction New products feels warmer “Endo-” means enter Energy is absorbed by the reaction New product feels cooler

11 Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions

12 Activation Energy Energy used to initiate a reaction Examples: 1.Adding Heat 2.Mixing or Stirring 3.Adding a catalyst Catalyst - something that speeds up a reaction without interfering with the reaction.
