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

Ammonium phosphate

                                            Ammonium phosphate Ammonium phosphate  is an ammonium  salt of orthophosphoric acid. It is a highly unstable compound with the  formula (NH 4 ) 3 PO 4 . Because of its instability, it is elusive and of no commercial value. A related "double salt", (NH 4 ) 3 PO 4 . (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4  is also recognized but is too unstable for practical use. Both triammonium salts evolve ammonia. In contrast to the unstable nature of the triammonium salts, the  diammonium phosphate (NH 4 ) 2 HPO 4  monoammonium salt (NH 4 )H 2 PO 4,  are stable materials that are commonly used as fertilizers to provide plants with fixed nitrogen and phosphorus. PREPARATION OH AMMONIUM TRIPHOSPHATE Triammonium phosphate can be prepared in the laboratory by treating 85% phosphoric acid with 30% ammonia solution: ...

class 9 chapter 1 ncert notes

Class-9 Chapter-1 Matters in our surroundings. 1) What is matter? Ans.   Matter is anything that occupied space that have mass and volume and offer residence is called matter. OR...... Matter is anything that occupies mass and volume. OR..... We can say that anything that has occupies space and mass of can be felt by our one or more sense organ is called matter. NOTE- 1. The SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg). 2. The SI unit of volume is cubic meter (m 3 ). 3. The common unit of measuring volume is litre (L).        (1L=1dm 3 , 1L=1000mL, 1mL= 1cm 3 ) For example- Full form: 1. MKS- Metre Kilogram Second 2. CGS- Centi Gram Second 3. FPS- Foot Pound Second Classification of matter- 1. Solid 2. Liquid 3. Gas       Solid- solid has definite shape and volume. Liquid- Liquid has definite volume but not definite shape. Gas- Gas has neither definite shape nor definite vo...

Akhilesh yadav

                                                    Akhilesh Yadav, son of Mulayam Singh Yadav is a dynamic young leader of Samajwadi leader. In March 2012, at the age of 38 years, he became the youngest person to hold the post. Akhilesh Yadav is now the president of National President of Samajwadi Party. Before the elections there was tussle in the Yadav family while Shivpal Singh wanted to push his candidates, Akhilesh was adamant on finalizing the candidate list. After much bickering in the family he assumed the command of the Samajwadi Party by dislodging his father Mulayam Singh Yadav and sidelining his uncle Shivpal Singh Yadav. He went on to forge an alliance with the congress after securing the command of the party before the assembly elections of Uttar Pradesh and campaigned for the party. He harped upon the development and asked peo...
