Synthesis: Synthesize/combine (Review of 4.04)
A + B → AB
1. Metal with a nonmetal makes an ionic compound (salt)
Ca + Cl
2
→ CaCl

+ O
2
→ 2H

(Literacy Skill)
Single Replacement: More reactive element “replaces/switches places” with less reactive element (Review of 4.03)
A + BY → AY + B
Use Activity Series to determine if reaction happens (from 4.03)

(Literacy Skill)
Single Replacement:
*You need to remember the ion charges and polyatomic ions from 3.05 and 3.08; there is a list of polyatomic ions in 3.08
*Show plus signs between reactants and between products
*Cation (plus charge) stays on left of compound and anion (negative charge) is on the right of the compound

(Literacy Skill)
Double Replacement: Couple trades partners with other couple
(Review of 4.03)
AY + BZ → AZ + BY
* No Activity Series for double replacement reactions.
*You need to remember the ion charges and polyatomic ions from 3.05 and 3.08; there is a list of polyatomic ions in 3.08
*Show plus signs between reactants and between products
*Cation (plus charge) stays on left of compound and anion
(negative charge) is on the right of the compound
NaCl + KBr → NaBr + KCl
2NaOH + CuCl
2
→ 2NaCl + Cu(OH)

Example: 2NaCl→ 2Na + Cl

*Appear as a pair in nature
*Know these when writing and balancing equations
Subscript 2 when the molecule is written alone

(Literacy Skill)
Combustion: Oxygen is a reactant; exothermic; heat and light are released; reaction burns “in air” (oxygen is a reactant from the air); notice the diatomic molecules
Examples:
2Ca + O
2
→ 2CaO
CH
4
+ 2O
2
→ CO
2
+ 2H
2
O

Scaffolding: Breaking directions into easier steps
(Literacy Skill)
Writing a chemical equation
(you learned this in 4.02, 4.03, and 4.04)
1. Identify the type of reaction
2. Write the products
(check for diatomic molecules)
3. Write the charges
4. Balance the charges using subscripts
5. Balance the equation using coefficients

1. Single replacement
Check activity series first
K + ZnCl
2
→
2. Double replacement
NaCl + KBr →
Al(NO
3
)
3
+ 3NaOH →

1. Single replacement
(check activity series first)
2K + ZnCl
2
→ 2KCl + Zn
2. Double replacement

(Literacy Skill)
Review 3.06, 3.08, 4.02, 4.03, and 4.04 (this lab applies all of those concepts)
1.
Identify the type of reaction (synthesis, decomposition, etc.).
2.
If it is a single replacement reaction, apply the activity series to determine if the reaction happens.
3.
Write the products (if a molecule is diatomic, make sure it has a subscript 2)
4.
Balance the charges of ions in an ionic compound with subscripts
5.
Balance the equation with coefficients (law of conservation of mass)
6.
Use plus signs between reactants and also between products
7.
Make sure you can explain your answer on the phone to your teacher on all homework and exams 


Download the lab worksheet, fill out your observations (bubbles, changed color, etc.), write the equations, and answer the essays
We tutor this assessment
FREQUENTLY so please attend LIVE tutoring
(check the announcements page for the tutoring schedule).
Writing equations is very important for your exams and for segment 2. We have wonderful tutoring sessions to help you! 
