Document Summary

Chemistry - the study of matter and its properties, the changes that matter undergoes, and the energy associated with those changes. Composition (of matter) - the types and amounts of simpler substances that make it up. Substance - type of matter that has a defined, fixed composition. Properties (of matter) - the characteristics that give each substance its unique identity - 2 types (physical and chemical) Physical properties: characteristics a substance shows by itself, without changing into or interacting with another substance (e. g. melting point, electrical conductivity, and density) Chemical properties: characteristics a substance shows as it changes into or interacts with another substance (or substances) - e. g. flammability, corrosiveness, reactivity with acids. Chemical change/reaction: occurs when a substance (or substances) is converted into a different substance (or substances) Solid - fixed shape that does not conform to container shape - not defined by rigidity or hardness - the particles lie next to each other in a regular, 3d array.

Chemical Reactions and Equations Learning objectives To observe physical and chemical properties associated with chemical changes To be able to give evidence for the occurrence of a chemical reaction To write a balanced chemical equation To identify areaction as a combination, decomposition, precipitation, single or double replacement, or combustion reaction ntroduction When a substance undergoes a physical change, it changes its appearance but not its composition. For example, when ice melts to form water, it undergoes a physical change from solid to liquid. In a chemical change, the composition of a substance is changed to give a new substance with different physical and chemical properties. For example, when silver tarnishes, the shiny silver (Ag) changes to a dull gray silver sulfide (AgaS). Not only has the chemical formula changed from Ag to Agus, but also the physical properties (shininess) of the substance have changed. Some examples of physical and chemical changes are listed in Table 1 below. Table 1. Comparison of Physical and Chemical Changes Examples of Physical changes Examples and Evidence of Chemical Changes Change in state (melting, freezing, evaporating Formation of a gas (bubbles) subliming) Formation of a solid (precipitate) Change in size Tearing Change in Color Heat is given off or absorbed A solid dissolving in a solvent In a chemical reaction, atoms in the reactants are rearranged to produce new combinations of atoms in the products. However, the total number of atoms of each element in the reactants is equal to the total number of atoms in the products. This is true according to the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that the total mass remains constant during a chemical reaction. In other words, matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. In a chemical equation, the reactants are shown on the left and the products are on the right. An arrow in between indicates that a chemical reaction occurs. Finally, the physical state of each compound is designated in parentheses after the chemical formula. Solid, liquid, gas, and aqueous (dissolved in water) are shown as(s,(n,(g), and (aq), respectively.

Decomposition of Malachite

Here is what Malachite is Made Out Of

Malachite is a famous and very popular semi-precious stone. Its banded light and dark green bands are one-of-a-kind, and give it a unique ornamental quality unlike that of any other stone. The light and dark green bands are so distinctive that malachite may be one of the most easily recognized minerals by the general public. Malachite is popular in jewelry, especially Native American southwestern jewelry. The stones inlayed in silver make a nice alternative to traditional turquoise jewelry.

Malachite is a form of copper carbonate with the molecular formula Cu₂CO₃(OH)₂. When heated to around 200 ï¿½C, malachite decomposes into copper (II) oxide (CuO) and other products.

Reaction Stoichiometry

The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. Therefore, the number of atoms of each element on the reactants side must be same as the number of atoms on the products side. This quantitative study of chemical reactions is called stoichiometry. The substances in a balanced reaction are related to each other by stoichiometric molar ratios. For example, magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid in a 1:2 stoichiometric ratio in the balanced equation below.

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

The molar ratios can be used as conversion factors to find the amount (in moles) of one substance given the amount of another. For example, given the number of moles of HCl, the amount of MgCl₂ can be determined as shown below.

nMgCl2=nHCl x (1mol MgCl2) / (2mol HCL)

The molar ratios are used to determine the amount in moles. However, the amount of reactant or product is often measured in grams. Mass can be converted to moles and vice versa as shown below.

n = m / (MM)

m = n x MM

where n is the number of moles, m is the mass of the product in g, and MM is its molar mass in g/mol.

To observe the Law of Conservation of Mass, you can perform different types of chemical reactions. For example, you can use a decomposition reaction to observe one compound being broken down into two or more elements or new compounds. For this reaction to take place, you must break existing bonds within the starting compound. Different sources of energy such as heat, light, or electricity may be used. Through a decomposition reaction, you can observe that the atoms in the original compound are not destroyed but are rearranged to form simpler substances, such as elements or compounds.

About This Lab

In this lab, you will test if the relationship between malachite and copper (II) oxide is stoichiometric. To do this, you will heat a known mass of malachite to produce copper (II) oxide. You will then compare the amount of copper (II) oxide obtained experimentally with the amount of copper (II) oxide expected from the balanced equation for the decomposition reaction.
