molecules of sodium hydroxide and a molecule
of hydrogen.

will react with 2 moles of water to produce 2
moles of sodium hydroxide and 1 mole of
hydrogen.

Types of Chemical Reactions
A combination reaction is a reaction with two or
more reactants, and a single product.

Stoichiometry


Stoichiometry is a Greek word that means using
chemical reactions to calculate the amount of
reactants needed and the amount of products
formed.
Amounts are typically calculated in grams (or
kg), but there are other ways to specify the
quantities of matter involved in a reaction.
Stoichiometry
A balanced chemical equation or reaction is
needed before any calculations can be made.
The formulas of all reactants and products
are written before attempting to balance the
equation.

Limiting Reagent Problems

Sometimes you are given quantities of more
than one reactant, and asked to calculate the
amount of product formed. The quantities of
reactants might be such that both react
completely, or one might react completely, and
the other(s) might be in excess. These are called
limiting reagent problems, since the quantity of
one of the reacts will limit the amount of
product that can be formed.

Types of Chemical Reactions
In a combustion reaction, a substance burns in the
presence of oxygen. If the reactant is a
compound containing on carbon, hydrogen and
oxygen, the products are water and carbon
dioxide.

Alkali Metal Reactions
The group IA metals will donate electrons to
non-metals. Reactions with the halogens (group
VIIA) produces ionic salts.
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g)  2 NaCl(s)
Reactions with water produces hydrogen gas
and the metal hydroxide.
2 Na(s) + 2 H2O(l)  2 NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Reactions of the Halogens
The elements of group VIIA readily pick up
electrons from metals to form ionic compounds
(salts).
In addition, the halogens react with
hydrogen gas to form covalently bonded hydrogen
halides.
H2(g) + Cl2(g)  2 HCl(g)
Reactions of the Halogens
The halogens can also react with each other
to form interhalogen compounds. The products are
covalently bonded.
