What happens in a

chemical reaction?
 Chemicals react to
change Do you remember the
difference between an
element, a compound, and a
substance?
The "chemicals" in a chemical reaction are
elements or compounds. They "react"
when combined or broken down.
Learning Outcomes
• Explain the law of conservation of mass
• Identify parts of a chemical reaction
• Classify chemical reactions according to type
Atoms in a Chemical Reaction
they rearrange
Some atomic bonds are broken, and
some new ones are made.

they are neither created nor

destroyed
This is the law of conservation of mass. In a
chemical reaction, the total mass of the substances
before and after the reaction remains the same.
 The quantity of elements and their atoms remain the same
before and after a chemical reaction.

 A Chemical Reaction Story
Four atoms of hydrogen react with two atoms of
oxygen. They are the reactants. They yielded two
atoms of water. Water is the product or end result.
 Types of Chemical Reaction

decomposition synthesis

AB → A+ B A + B → AB
one compound breaks down into two or more substances join and form
two products one single substance

single-replacement double-replacement

AB + C → AC + B AB + CD → AD + CB
atoms of an element swap with atoms of a positive ions exchange between two

 Review
A chemical reaction can be a decomposition, synthesis, single-
replacement, or double-replacement.
