→ Types of chemical reactions
→ Combination
reactions
★ Two reactants combine to form one product.
Ex:
§ Calcium
oxide(quick lime) react with water produce calcium hydroxide(slaked lime) and
produce large amount of heat
CaO +
H2O → Ca(OH)2 +
Heat
(quick Lime) (slaked lime)
§ Burning
of coal:
C + O2 →
CO2
§ Formation
of water from hydrogen and oxygen gas.
H2 + O2 →
H2O
→
Decomposition reaction
ü Thermal
decomposition:
★ One reactant breakdown to form two or more products
Ex:
§ Lime stone on heating
heat
CaCO3 →
CaO + CO2
(Lime stone) (quick
lime)
Quick lime used in the
manufacturing of cement
§ Lead nitrate is heated
heat
2Pb(NO3)2 → 2PbO + 4NO2 + O2
The
brown fume coming out when lead nitrate is heated is due to the liberation of Nitrogen
dioxide gas.
§ Heating of ferrous sulphate crystals.
heat
2FeSO4 → Fe2O3
+ SO2 + SO3
Ferrous
sulphate crystals lose green colour when heated. Because this
compound loses water molecule.
ü Electrolytic
decomposition (Electrolysis of water)
Ex: 2H2O → 2H2 + O2
§ In
the electrolysis of water the gases that are released at cathode and anode and
their ratio respectively are Hydrogen : Oxygen ; 2 : 1
§ The
volume collected at one electrode is more than the other this is because water
contains two parts of hydrogen element as compared to one part of oxygen
element by volume.
§ Test
the liberated gas: When a matchstick is brought near the gases evolved,
hydrogen gas burns with a pop sound while oxygen gas being a supporter of gas
make the matchstick burn brightly.
ü Photolytic
decomposition
sunlight
Ex: 2AgCl → 2Ag
+ Cl2
White silver chloride turns
grey in sunlight due to the decomposition of silver chloride into silver and chlorine
by light.
→ Oxidation
★ Addition of oxygen is called oxidation.
Ex:
§ 2Zn
+ O2 →2ZnO
§ 2Cu
+ O2 → Cuo
Copper
powder becomes coated with black copper oxide because oxygen added to copper
form copper oxide.
→ Reduction
★ Removing of oxygen is called reduction.
Ex: ZnO + C → Zn + CO
→ Redox
reaction
★ Oxidation and reduction occur in same
reaction.
Or
A chemical reaction in which
one reactant gets oxidised while the other gets reduced is called redox
reaction.
§ If a
substance gains oxygen it said to oxidised.
§ If a
substance loses oxygen it said to reduced.
§ ZnO
+ C → Zn + CO
Carbo oxidised to CO and ZnO reduced Zn.
§ MnO2
+ 4HCl → MnCl2 + 2H2O + Cl2
HCl oxidised to Cl2 and MnO2
Reduced to MnCl2
§ Na +
O2 →Na2O
Oxidized substance – Na, Reduced
substance - O2
§ CuO
+ H2 → Cu + H2O
Oxidized substance - H2, Reduced
substance - CuO
→ Displacement
reaction
★ More reactive element displace the less
reactive element.
Ex:
§ Fe +
CuSO4 → FeSO4
An iron nail is dropped into
a test tube having copper sulphate solution. The iron nail gradually turns to
brownish colour because iron is more reactive than copper, it displaces copper
from copper sulphate solution.
§ Fe2O3
+ 2Al → Al2O3 + 2Fe
Aluminium is more reactive
than iron.
§ Zn +
CuSO4 → ZnSO4 + Cu
§ Pb +
CuCl2 → PbCl2 + Cu
→ Double
displacement reaction
★ Exchange of ions between reactants.
Ex: Na2SO4 +
BaCl2 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl
→ Precipitation
reaction
★ Insoluble
substance formed in the reaction.
Ex: Na2SO4 +
BaCl2 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl
§ Insoluble
white precipitate is BaSO4
§ Ihe
ions responsible for the formation of white precipitate is Ba2+ and
SO42-
→ Exothermic
reaction
★ Heat
released in the reaction.
Ex:
§ Burning
of natural gas:
CH4 + O2 → H2O +
CO2
§ Respiration
reaction in cell
C6H12O6
+ O2 → CO2 + H2O
+ Energy
§ Decomposition
of vegetable waste into compost
→ Endothermic
Reaction
Heat absorbed in the
reaction.
heat
Ex: CaCO3 →
CaO + CO2
→ Corrosion
★ Metals changes into undesirable substances by the action of atmosphere substance
Ex:
§ Black
coating on silver
§ Green
coating on copper
§ Rusting
of iron
→ Rancidity
★ Smell /taste of oil/fat containing substance
change by oxidation.
Prevention
★ Use Antioxidant
★ Refrigerating.
★ flushed with Nitrogen gas
★ Pack in air tight container
