level questions: Chemical Equations

QuestionAnswer
In a word Equation, what is on the Left and Right hand side?-Reactants sit on the Left side, because they will React with each other to get the... -Products sit on the Right side because they are the aftermath of the Reaction
Using a Word Equation, Methane burns in Oxygen giving Carbon DioxideMethane + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water
What do Symbolic Equations do Differently?-Simply are the Symbols of the Reactants and Formulas
Magnesium and Oxygen makes Magnesium Oxide, Show in Symbolic Equation-2Mg + O2 ---> 2MgO
Why is Balancing out an Equation important?-Due to the Conservation of Mass, Matter can't just Disappear or be Created, so Balancing out it out resolves that Issue
What can State Symbols tell you?-They can tell you what State the Substance is in -The 4 ones are -Solid -Liquid -Gas -Aqueous [Dissolved in Water] -They come in Symbolic Equations
What do Ionic Reactions shows?-This shows what the Ions are making. -To write one, look at the Reactants and the Products. If its the Same, it can be made redundant
Write an Ionic Equation doe CaCl² [aq] +2NaOH [aq] ---> Ca[OH]² [s] + 2NaCl [aq]-First, Anything that is Ionic, and is Aqueous, break their Ions up, as it will happen in the Reaction [Ca²+ + 2Cl- + 2Na+ + 2OH- ---> Ca[OH]² + 2Na+ + 2Cl-] -Getting the Ionic Equation requires to cross out Anything that is the Same. So here, the 2Cl and 2Na can be getting rid off making our equation like: [Ca²+ [aq] + 2OH- [aq] ----> Ca[OH]² [s]
What is a Half Equation?-This is simply showing how Electrons are Transferred in Reactions -e- = One Electron
Where can you Write Half Equations?-Usually only for Oxidation and Reduction
Can you Combine Half Equations? Use an Example with Sodium/Hydrogen-Yes, they would make Full Ionic Equations -Full Equations do not Contain Electrons, as they should be Cancelled out -Sodium and Hydrogen, it would be 2Na + 2H+ --> 2Na+ +H2
