a high rate. Some reactions take
hundreds, maybe even thousands,

less than one second.

TEMPERATURE
An increase
in temperature typically
increases the rate of reaction.
An increase
in temperature will raise the
average kinetic energy of the
reactant molecules. Therefore,
a greater proportion of
molecules will have the
minimum energy necessary for
an effective collision

SURFACE AREA AND

In a reaction
between solid and

CONCENTRATION
When the concentration of
all the reactants
increases, more molecules
or ions interact to form new
compounds, and the rate of
reaction increases. When
the concentration of a
reactant decreases, there
are fewer of that molecule
or ion present, and the rate
of reaction decreases.

Predicting the Products of Single
Replacement Reactions
1) Write the reactants.
Na + H+OH- Na+OH- + H
If none of the above are produced and both products are (aq),
then there is no reaction (NR)!
Examples of Double Replacement
Reactions:
Pb(NO3)2 (aq) + 2NaI (aq) PbI2 (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq)
(precipitate forming)
H(OH)
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)
(water-forming, acid-base, neutralization)
H2O (l) +
CO2 (g)
CaCO3 (s) + 2HCl (aq) CaCl2 (aq) + H2CO3
(gas-forming)
How do you determine if one of the products
of a double replacement reaction will be a
precipitate?
• Use the solubility rules….
Soluble compounds
These compounds break down when put in water.

Synthesis Reactions (cont’d)
• Metallic and nonmetallic elements react to form ionic
compounds. The resultant compound should be charge
balanced by the criss-cross method.
Ex. 4Li + O2 2Li2O
• Nonmetals react with each other to form covalent (molecular)
compounds. You should be able to draw a valid Lewis

4) DECOMPOSITION
REACTION
A more complex substance (the
reactant) breaks down into two
or more simple parts (products).
Synthesis and decomposition
reactions are opposites.

water into
oxygen gas
and hydrogen

(ex. NaCl is used
to obtain pure

5) COMBUSTION REACTIONS
a) All involve oxygen (O2) as a reactant,
combining with another substance
b) All combustion reactions are are
exothermic
c) Complete combustion of a hydrocarbon
always produces CO2 and H2O
d) Incomplete combustion of a hydrocarbon
will produce CO and possibly C (black

you must get rid of them in the end

Energy Changes Accompanying
Chemical Reactions
All chemical reactions involve a net release or absorption of
energy. Therefore, heat energy moves between the chemical
system and the surroundings. This exchange of heat can be
monitored by keeping track of changes in temperature of the
surroundings (calorimetry).
Remember, q = mcpT
where q = change in heat (in Joules)
m = mass of H2O (in grams)
cp = specific heat capacity of
H2O (J/g ◦C )
T = change in temperature
of H2O (in ◦C)
Where does the energy come from during a
chemical reaction?
• During chemical reactions, bonds are broken and new bonds are
formed.
• The heat energy that moves between the system and surroundings
during chemical reactions is basically the energy that is used to break
bonds and the energy that is released when bonds form. (i.e. bond
energy)
• The energy change that accompanies any chemical reaction is called
the enthalpy (heat) of reaction or H0rxn.
H0rxn = Hfinal – Hinitial

The majority of chemical reactions are exothermic because nature favors a low

Reaction progress
Endothermic chemical reactions are generally unfavorable but may occur only if
they are accompanied by an increase in entropy or disorder of the system (due to
more particles formed, liquids/gases formed, mixtures formed, volume of gas
increases).
Example: An Endothermic Reaction
Reaction Progress
Do you have to actually perform and observe a
chemical reaction to know if it is exothermic or
endothermic?
• No – you can calculate H0rxn from data that has
already been measured and tabulated by thermo-
chemists (see handout).
• H0f = standard heat of formation for a compound (in
kJ/mol). It is determined by forming the compound
from its elements in their stable forms at conditions
of 298K and 1 atm of pressure inside of a calorimeter.
