           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 + 3H2---->  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...

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...
