# Chemistry ## Acids ### Naming Binary Acids - $`HCL_{(g)} \rightarrow`$ hydrogen chloride - $`HCL_{(aq)} \rightarrow`$ **hydro**fluoric **acid** - Need to put the **hydro** prefix as it tells us its disolved in water and is an acid ## Oxyacids ### Naming Oxyacids - `ite` ions make `ous` acides (suffix). $`HCLO_2 = `$ Chlor**ous** acid - `ate` ions make `ic` acides (suffix). $`HCLO_3 = `$ Chlor**ic** acid - Prefixes stay the same ## Chemical Change - Similar to chemical reaction ## Evidence of Chemical Change: (observations that tell us its happening) 1. A new gas is formed (new odour, formation of bubbles) 2. A large change in energy (eg. Light, heat, sound, electricity) 3. A new colour is formed 4. A new solid is formed ## Representing Chemical Reactions - A Chemical equation! - Used to model what is happening during a chemical reaction. - We use an arrow instead of an equal sign to show `beomces`, `reacts to form`, `produces` - On the **left** side, we always have the **`REACTANTS`**, (INPUT), these get used up in the chemical reaction - There can be plus signs to show multiple `reactants`. (Recipes, we are adding them together) - On the **right** side, we have the **`PRODUCTS**` (OUTPUT). - Newly produced/made from `reactants` - Plus signs show multple products, more like an **AND** more than anything else - In a chemical reaction, reactant, molecules/atoms/formula units/ions reaarange to produce products moleccules/atoms/ions/formula units - eg. Wax $`+`$ oxygen gase $`\rightarrow`$ Soot $`+`$ Water $`+`$ Carbon dioxide. - A `word` equation - $`\triangle`$ Greek letter to represent heat. - $`C_{25}H_{52(g)} + O_{2(g)} \rightarrow^\triangle C_{(g)} + H_2O_{(g)} + CO_{2(g)}`$ ## Types Of Reactions - 6 types of reactions - synthesis - decomposition - single displacement - double displacement - combustion - neutralization ## Sythensis - When 2 or more substances combines into one substance - $`A + B \rightarrow AB`$ ## Decomposition - With a substance breaks down into 2 or more substances - $`AB \rightarrow A + B`$ ## Single Diplacement - When ## Double Displacement ## Combustion ## Neutralization
