    Chemical Equations - More Practice

    1. Textbook section 6.1 Describing Chemical Reactions, pg 225-227.

    2. What is the purpose of the arrow in a chemical equation?


    Lets you know the direction of the reaction and separates reactants from products.

    3. Write word equations for the following reactions:


    a) Acetic acid (vinegar) and sodium hydrogen carbonate (baking soda) react to
    form water, carbon dioxide, and sodium acetate.
    acetic acid + sodium hydrogen carbonate → water + carbon dioxide + sodium acetate

    b) Aluminum metal reacts with oxygen from the air to form a protective coating
    called aluminum oxide.
    aluminum + oxygen → aluminum oxide

    c) Water and carbon dioxide are produced when propane burns in oxygen.
    propane + oxygen → water + carbon dioxide

    d) Zinc metal reacts in a silver nitrate solution to produce zinc nitrate and silver
    metal.
    zinc + silver nitrate → zinc nitrate + silver

    e) Inside an automobile airbag, sodium reacts with iron(iii) oxide to form sodium
    oxide and iron.
    sodium + iron (iii) oxide → sodium oxide + iron

    f) Sodium azide decomposes into sodium and nitrogen


    sodium azide → sodium + nitrogen

    4. Write skeletal equations for b and e from question #3 above.

    b) Al(s) + O 2(g) → Al 2O3(s)

    e) Na + Fe2O3 → Na2O + Fe
    5. Match the following terms to their definitions.

    1. __D___chemical reaction a) A chemical that is produced


    during a chemical reaction
    2. __E___word equation b) A way of describing a chemical
    reaction using the chemical
    3. __B___chemical equation formulas of the reactants and
    products
    4. __C___reactant c) A chemical, present at the start
    of a chemical reaction, that is
    5. __A___product used up during the reaction
    d) A process in which substances
    interact, causing the formation of
    new substances with new
    properties
    e) A way of describing a chemical
    reaction using the names of the
    reactants and products

    6. Translate the following skeletal equations to word equations.


    a) H2 + O2 → H2O

    hydrogen + oxygen → water

    b) PbO2 → PbO + O2

    lead (iv) oxide → lead (ii) oxide + oxygen
