CyberEd Teacher Study Guide: Chemical Reactions

The following National Science Education Standards specifically relate to this study
guide:

CHEMICAL REACTIONS

o Chemical reactions occur all around us, for example in health care,
cooking, cosmetics, and automobiles. Complex chemical reactions
involving carbon-based molecules take place constantly in every cell in
our bodies.
o Chemical reactions may release or consume energy. Some reactions such
as the burning of fossil fuels release large amounts of energy by losing
heat and by emitting light. Light can initiate many chemical reactions such
as photosynthesis and the evolution of urban smog.
o A large number of important reactions involve the transfer of either
electrons (oxidation/reduction reactions) or hydrogen ions (acid/base
reactions) between reacting ions, molecules, or atoms. In other reactions,
chemical bonds are broken by heat or light to form very reactive radicals
with electrons ready to form new bonds. Radical reactions control many
processes such as the presence of ozone and greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere, burning and processing of fossil fuels, the formation of
polymers, and explosions.
o Chemical reactions can take place in time periods ranging from the few
femtoseconds (10-15 seconds) required for an atom to move a fraction of
a chemical bond distance to geologic time scales of billions of years.
Reaction rates depend on how often the reacting atoms and molecules
encounter one another, on the temperature, and on the properties--
including shape--of the reacting species.
o Catalysts, such as metal surfaces, accelerate chemical reactions.
Chemical reactions in living systems are catalyzed by protein molecules
called enzymes.

3. Rules Ruled: This graphic from Scene 22 lists the rules for balancing chemical
equations, with examples. Unfortunately, in example A the formula BaSO 3 is
incorrect a violation of the first rule! Actually, barium in barium sulfite has a
charge of +2; the sulfite ion and the nitrite ion each have a charge of -1. Try to
balance equation A as written. Then substitute the proper formula for barium
sulfite and balance the corrected equation. Additionally, using the values Al+3,
SO4-2 and OH-, balance the equation in example B.
