Chemical reactions and equations

CHAPTER-1

CHEMICAL REACTIONS & EQUATIONS

Chemical reactions

1. Chemical reaction-

Chemical reactions are the processes in which new substances are formed.

Example-

Magnesium + oxygen----> Magnesium oxide

The burning of magnesium in air to form magnesium oxide is an example of chemical reaction.

Types of chemical reactions-

1. Combination reactions

2. Decomposition reactions

3. Displacement reactions

4. Double displacement reactions

5. Oxidation and reduction reactions

Components of chemical reaction are-

1. Reactant

2. Product

Characteristics of chemical reaction-

1. Evolution of gas

2. Formation of a precipitate (ppt)

3. Change in colour

4. Change in temperature

5. Change in state
Chemical equations

Chemical equation-

The method of representing a chemical reaction with the help of symbols and formulae of the substances involved in it is known as a chemical equation.

Example-

Mg₃N₂ + 3H₂O ----> 3MgO + 2NH₃

Some chemical equations are given below-

1) 2Fe₂O₃ +3C----> 4Fe+3CO₂

2)H₂SO₄+CaCO₃----> CaSO₄+H₂CO₃

3) 2H₂+0₂----> 2H₂O

4) CH₃COOH+C₂H₅OH----> CH₃COOC₂H₅+H₂O

5) 1 AgNO₃ + 1 LiOH ----> 1 AgOH + 1 LiNO₃

6) CH₄+2O₂----> CO₂+2H₂O.

7) Sn+2H₂SO₄----> SnSO₄+2H₂O+SO₂

8) CuO+H₂SO₄----> CuSO₄+H₂

9) Mg₃N₂ + 3H₂O ----> 3MgO + 2NH₃

10) N₂ + O₂----> 2 NO

Periodic table

Periodic table ELEMENTS- Elements are pure from of matter that are made up of one type of atom. · DOBEREINER- Grouped all elements in three (triads). · NEWLAND- Observed that when elements are arranging in increasing order of their atomic mass. Every eighteen element beginning from any element resemble the first element in its physical and chemical properties. · DMITRI MENDLEVE- He is a Russian chemist gave the first periodic table of elements based on his law which states that “The properties of elements are the periodic functions of their atomic mass.” · Modern periodic table was given by HENERY MOSELEY. Periodic table- A tabular form of elements in group and periods highlighting the regular trends in...

ALBERT EINSTEIN

ALBERT EINSTEIN Albert Einstein was born on 14 March 1879 in the German city of Ulm, without any indication that he was destined for greatness. On the contrary, his mother thought Albert was a freak. To her, his head seemed much too large. At the age of two-a-half, Einstein still wasn't talking. When he finally did learn to speak, he uttered everything twice. Einstein did not know what to do with other children, and his playmates called him "Brother Boring." So the youngster played by himself much of the time. He especially loved mechanical toys. Looking at his newborn sister, Maja, he is said to have said: "Fine but where are her wheels?" A headmaster once told his father that what Einstein chose as a profession wouldn't matter, because"he'll never make a success at anything." Einstein began learning to play the violin at the age of six, because his mother wanted him to; he later became a violinist, m...
