Your cell phone should be away during all times today unless you are viewing the website or you are done with all assignments.
Learning Intentions
You can properly balance chemical equations.
You can identify each type of chemical reaction in a demonstration.
You can write an equation in words, in formulas and then balance them.
Content Standards being covered:
Student can create mathematical representations of chemical
reactions and use them to make calculations about products and reactants.
162. In a complete, balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms of elements
on one side of the chemical equation must match the number of atoms of elements
on the other side
163. To balance an equation, one may only add a coefficient to the start of a
compound to balance the amount of atoms on either side of the equation
164. The main types of chemical reactions are combustion reactions, combination
reactions, decomposition reactions, single displacement reactions, and double
displacement reactions
165. A combustion reaction will always have a fuel reacting with O2 to create
H2O and CO2
166. In a combination reaction, two reactants combine to form one product
167. In a decomposition reaction, one reaction will break into two or more
smaller products
168. In a single displacement reaction, a compound and an element will react to
form a new compound and a new element169. In a double displacement reaction, two
ionic compounds react to form two different ionic compounds
