Catalyst – is a substance that changes the rate of a chemical reaction, but can be recovered unchanged. Reversible reaction –  is a chemical reaction in which the products reform the original reactants.

III. Balanced Equations 1.States: A. Obey the Law of Conservation of Matter Matter cannot be created or destroyed

2.Thus the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation. must the number of atoms of each element on the product side of the equation. III. Balanced Equations (not in notes) A. Obey the Law of Conservation of Matter equal

3.Since the number of atoms is conserved so is the mass. If you started with 10 grams of reactants, there will be 10 grams of products. III. Balanced Equations A. Obey the Law of Conservation of Matter

III. Balanced Equations B.Background: 1. all atoms must be accounted for

2.Use to make the total number of atoms of each element in the reactants equal the total number of atoms of each element in the products total number of atoms of each element in the products. III. Balanced Equations B.Background: coefficients

III. Balanced Equations B.Background: 3. Never change subscripts! 4.If an element occurs more than once on one side of the equation it is usually (but not always) best to balance it last.

B. Coefficients 1.Are numbers that indicate how many atoms or molecules of each substance are involved in the reaction 2.Are written in of formulas 3.Are used to balance an eq. 2 2AlCl 3 whole front

III. Balancing Equations C. General Rules for Balancing Eq. 1.Write the equations and balance them in 2.Count the number of atoms of each element in the reactants and products. 3. Balance the elements one at a time by using coefficients. Never change subscripts! pencil

III. Balancing Equations D. Steps to Balancing an Eq. 2. Balance metals 3. Balance nonmetals 4. Balance oxygen 5. Balance hydrogen 6. Recount all atoms 7. If every coefficient will reduce, rewrite in the simplest whole-number ratio.

Solubility – The amount of a substance that is dissolved at solution equilibrum in a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature. Solubility is affected by: 1.Surface area 2.Agitating solution 3.Heating a solvent – increases collisions

Immiscible = Substances that are not soluble in each other Miscible = are soluble in each other.
