The law of

of mass says that matter cannot be created nor destroyed.

​Law of Conservation of Mass

​Matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, you must have the same number of atoms on both sides of a chemical reaction.

​Evidence of a Chemical Reaction

1. ​Change in temperature

2. ​Evolution of gas

3. ​Formation of a percipitate

4. Color Change

5. Odor Change​

What other examples of a chemical reaction can you think of in your everyday life?

Multiple Choice

How many atoms of each type do you have in the following equation? $$Mg\left(OH\ \right)_2+\ 2HCl\ \rightarrow\ 2H_2O\ +\ MgCl_2$$  

• 1 Mg, 2 OH, 2 H, 2 Cl

• 1 Mg, 4 H, 2 O, 2 Cl

• 2 HCl, 2 OH, 1 Mg, 2 Cl

• 2HCl, 2 OH, 1 Mg, 2 $$H_2O$$  , 2 Cl

​Combination Reaction

​A combination reaction takes to seperate chemicals and combines them to form one new chemical.

​

​This reaction is also known as a synthesis reaction.

​Decompostion Reaction

​Takes one chemical and seperates it (breaks it apart) into two or more different (new) chemicals.

• Synthesis

• Decompostion

• Single Replacement

​Single Displacement Reaction

​Double Replacement Reaction
