handwritten notes of chemical reaction and equations class 10
if u have notes plz reply
Answers
Explanation:
Physical change – change in colour or state occurs but no new substance is formed.
Example: Water changes to steam on boiling but no new substance is formed(Even though steam and water look different when they are made to react with a piece of Na, they react the same way and give the exact same products). This involves only a change in state (liquid to vapour).
Observations that help determine a chemical reaction
A chemical reaction can be determined with the help of any of the following observations:
a) Evolution of a gas
b) Change in temperature
c) Formation of a precipitate
d) Change in colour
e) Change of state
Chemical reaction
Chemical reactions are chemical changes in which reactants transform into products by making or breaking of bonds (or both) between different atoms.
Types of chemical reactions
Taking into consideration different factors, chemical reactions are grouped into multiple categories.
Few examples are:
● Combination
● Decomposition
● Single Displacement
● Double displacement
● Redox
● Endothermic
● Exothermic
● Precipitation
● Neutralisation
Chemical Reactions and Equations I
Word equation
A word equation is a chemical reaction expressed in words rather than chemical formulas. It helps identify the reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
For example,
Sodium + Chlorine → Sodium chloride
The above equation means: “Sodium reacts with chlorine to form sodium chloride.”
Symbols of elements and their valencies
A symbol is the chemical code for an element. Each element has one or two-letter atomic symbol, which is the abbreviated form of its name.
Valency is the combining capacity of an element. It can be considered as the number of electrons lost, gain or shared by an atom when it combines with another atom to form a molecule.
Writing chemical equations
Representation of a chemical reaction in terms of symbols and chemical formulae of the reactants and products is known as a chemical equation.
Chemical Reactions and Equations-3
• For solids, the symbol is “(s)”.
• For liquids, it is “(l)”.
• For gases, it is “(g)”.
• For aqueous solutions, it is “(aq)”.
• For gas produced in the reaction, it is represented by “(↑)”.
• For precipitate formed in the reaction, it is represented by “(↓)”.
Balancing of a Chemical Reaction
Conservation of mass
According to the law of conservation of mass, no atoms can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, so the number of atoms for each element in the reactants side has to balance the number of atoms that are present in the products side.
In other words, the total mass of the products formed in a chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of the reactants participated in a chemical reaction.
Balanced chemical equation
The chemical equation in which the number of atoms of each element in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side is called a balanced chemical equation.
Steps for balancing chemical equations
Hit and trial method: While balancing the equation, change the coefficients (the numbers in front of the compound or molecule) so that the number of atoms of each element is same on each side of the chemical equation.
Short-cut technique for balancing a chemical equation
Example:
a CaCO 3 + b H 3 PO 4 → c Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + d H 2 CO 3
Set up a series of simultaneous equations, one for each element.
Ca: a = 3c
C: a=d
O: 3a+4b=8c+3d
H: 3b = 2d
P: b=2c
Let’s set c=1
Then a=3 and
d = a = 3
b = 2c = 2
So a=3; b=2; c=1; d=3
The balanced equation is
3CaCO 3 + 2H 3 PO 4 → Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + 3H 2 CO 3
Chemical Reactions and Equations II
Types of chemical reactions
Taking into consideration different factors, chemical reactions are grouped into multiple categories.
Few examples are:
● Combination
● Decomposition
● Single Displacement
● Double displacement
● Redox
● Endothermic
● Exothermic
● Precipitation
● Neutralisation
Combination reaction
In a combination reaction, two elements or one element and one compound or two compounds combine to give one single product.
Chemical Reactions and Equations-4
Decomposition reaction
A single reactant decomposes on the application of heat or light or electricity to give two or more products.
Types of decomposition reactions:
a. Decomposition reactions which require heat – thermolytic decomposition or thermolysis.
Chemical-Reactions-and-Equations-5
Thermal decomposition of HgO
b. Decomposition reactions which require light – photolytic decomposition or photolysis.
Chemical-Reactions-and-Equations-6
Photolytic decomposition of H2O2
c. Decomposition reactions which require electricity – electrolytic decomposition or electrolysis.
Answer:
Chemical Reactions and Equations: Balanced and unbalanced chemical equations and balancing of chemical equations.
What is a chemical reaction Class 10?
Chemical Reaction: The transformation of chemical substance into another chemical substance is known as Chemical Reaction. For example: Rusting of iron, the setting of milk into curd, digestion of food, respiration, etc.
In a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed which is completely different in properties from the original substance, so in a chemical reaction, a chemical change takes place.
Only a rearrangement of atoms takes place in a chemical reaction.
The substances which take part in a chemical reaction are called reactants.
The new substances produced as a result of a chemical reaction are called products.
Example: The burning of magnesium in the air to form magnesium oxide is an example of a chemical reaction.
2Mg(s) + O2(g) △→ 2MgO(s)
Before burning in air, the magnesium ribbon is cleaned by rubbing with sandpaper.
This is done to remove the protective layer of basic magnesium carbonate from the surface of the magnesium ribbon.
Reactant: Substances which take part in a chemical reaction are called reactants.
Example: Mg and O2.
Product: New substance formed after a chemical reaction is called a product.
Example: MgO.
Characteristics of Chemical Reactions :
(i) Evolution of gas: The chemical reaction between zinc and dilute sulphuric acid is characterised by the evolution of hydrogen gas.
Zn(s) + H2SO4(aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + H2(g) ↑
(ii) Change in Colour: The chemical reaction between citric acid and purple coloured potassium permanganate solution is characterised by a change in colour from purple to colourless.
The chemical reaction between sulphur dioxide gas and acidified potassium dichromate solution is characterized by a change in colour from orange to green.
(iii) Change in state of substance: The combustion reaction of candle wax is characterised by a change in state from solid to liquid and gas (because the wax is a solid, water formed by the combustion of wax is a liquid at room temperature whereas, carbon dioxide produced by the combustion of wax is a gas). There are some chemical reactions which can show more than one characteristics.
(iv) Change in temperature: The chemical reaction between quick lime water to form slaked lime is characterized by a change in temperature (which is a rise in temperature).
The chemical reaction between zinc granules and dilute sulphuric acid is also characterised by a change in temperature (which is a rise in temperature).
(v) Formation of precipitate: The chemical reaction between sulphuric acid and barium chloride solution is characterised by the formation of a white precipitate of barium sulphate.
BaCl2(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → BaSO4(s) (ppt) + 2HCl(aq)
