Chemical and Physical Reactions

In a chemical reaction, mass is conserved. This means that

• The mass of the products stays the same during a chemical reaction

• The mass of the products is always twice the mass of the reactants

• The mass of the reactants stays the same during a chemical reaction

• The type and number of atoms in the reactants equals the type and number of atoms in the products

If the reactants on the left side of a chemical equation are C3H8 + 5O2, the products in a balanced equation could be

• 2CO2 + 3H2O

• 3CO + 4H2O

• 3CO2 + 4H2O

• 4CO2 + 3H2O

Using the image above determine if a physical or chemical change has occurred in Model B.

• A chemical change has occurred in model B. In the second cup you can see that the molecules have just rearranged.

• A chemical change has occurred in model B. In the second cup you can see a bond (black line) has formed between the green and blue molecule and new light pink/light blue molecules have also formed.

• A physical change has occurred in model B. In the second cup you can see that the molecules have just rearranged.

• A physical change has occurred in model B. In the second cup you can see a bond (black line) has formed between the green and blue molecule and new light pink/light blue molecules have also formed.

The law of conservation of mass states

• matter can not be created or destroyed

• matter can be created and destroyed

• matter can be changed and created

• matter can be rearranged and destroyed

In the chemical reaction CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, there are reactants on the left of the equation and products on the right. If you count the atoms in the reactants, there are

• 4 carbon atoms, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms

• 1 carbon atom, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms

• 1 carbon atom, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 4 oxygen atoms

• 4 carbon atoms, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 4 oxygen atoms
