Balancing of simple chemical equations. Symbol ~ definition; symbols of the elements used often. Valency ~ definition; hydrogen combination & number of valence electrons of the metals & non-metals; mono, di, tri and tetra valent elements. Radicals ~ definition; formulae & valencies Compounds ~ name & formulae. Chemical equation ~ definition and examples of chemical equations with one reactant & two or three products, fwvo reactants & one product, two ractants & two products & two reactants & three or four products; balancing of equations. (by hit & trial method). Relative Atomic Masses (atomic weights) & Relative Molecular Masses (molecular weights): either -standard H atom or I/12th of carbon 12 atom. Definitions Calculation of Relative Molecular Mass & percentage composition of a compound. A. SYMBOLS THE TERM A SYMBOL REPRESENTS - A short form of an element. The qualitative and quantitative meaning of the term - ‘symbol’. . A symbol represents - a specific element or one atom of an element. e.g. ‘S' represents one atom of the element sulphur. + Asymbol also represents - the weight of the element equal to its atomic weight [ie. it represents how many times an atom is heavier than one atomic mass unit [a.m.u.] which is defined as 1/,9th the mass of a carbon atom C17] INTRODUCTION TO CONCEPT OF A SYMBOL - Symbols of elements used often | + In 1807 - John Dalton suggested - figurative symbols for atoms of elements. ‘Examples of figurative symbols _| _ Examples of molecule representation O10 |@] O | ao | ceo | O80 Oxygen |Hydrogen| Sulphur | Nitrogen | Ammonia _| Sulphur dioxide |Hydrogen sulphide The above method was cumbersome and later abandoned. In 1814 - Berzelius suggested - a simple system of representing elements with symbols. He put forward certain points for presentation. In most cases the first letter of the name of an element ~ was taken as the symbol for that element and written in capitals. [Carbon In cases where the first letter is already adopted - Siulpine the initial letter in capital together with its small leter from its name were used,| C2 Icium The symbols for some metals were derived from their - Latin names.

Fe e.g. Cuprous [Cul] & Cupric [Cx]. Pb {Cu=29(2,8,181) The outermost shell has ‘one electron & the pemiltimate Sn shellcontains 18electrons. However the penultimateshellhasnotattained Mn stability and one or more electrons somtimes jumps to the outermost shell Pt thereby increasing the valency electron. Hence the atom has new configuration 2817.2) | Therefore copper exhibits Cul & Cie* valency. RADICALS Bee ‘A radicalis a group of atoms of elements that behaves likea single unit & shows a valency. Positive radical - Ammonium [NH,!*]; Negative radical - Hydroxide [OH™] CHEMICAL FORMULA Saas Chemical formula - A molecule of a substance i.e. element or compound ~ could be represented by symbols.

BALANCING OF EQUATIONS - WHAT IS A BALANCED EQUATION. - A balanced equation is one in which the - munber of atoms of each elements - the same on the side of the reactants & on the side of the products. WHY SHOULD AN EQUATION BE BALANCED. - All equations must be balanced in order to comply with the - ‘Law of Conservation of Matter’, which explains that - matter is neither created nor destroyed in the course of a chemical reaction. An unbalanced equation would imply that atoms have been created or destroyed. HOWIS ANEQUATION BALANCED. - Thereisno definite rule governing the balancing of an equation - and it is generally balanced by ~ hit and trial method or partial equation method. ~ In order to balance an equation - the formula of the reactants and products in an equation are fixed & hence an equation can be balanced by taking - appropriate numbers ~ of the atoms or molecules of the reactants & the products concerned. H. BALANCING OF CHEMICAL EQUATIONS _ ‘Hit and Trial Method : 12a] the - BALANCING OF A CHEMICAL EQUATION - Hit & TH ite Trial marae mber of atoms of each element on # Hit & Trial Method consists of - counting the nu! lise the number.

BALANCING OF A CHEMICAL EQUATION - Partial Equation Method Re Partial Equation Method: Balancing can be done easily by supposing - i] The complex reaction to take place in steps ii] Writing equation for the individual steps _ iii] Finally adding the steps.
