LESSON: Chemical reactions may be categorized as follows : 

1.     Synthesis

2.     Decomposition

3.     Single replacement

4.     Double replacement

5.     Combustion

       Cellular Respiration

6.     Oxidation of metals

Synthesis reaction:

element     +   element    -->    compound

Decomposition reaction:

Compound    -->   element     +     element

Or

Compound --> smaller compound    +   element

DOUBLE REPLACEMENT


single replacement

IN ADDITION TO THE FOUR TYPES ABOVE, THERE ARE ALSO THREE MORE KINDS of reaction TO KNOW: 

Combustion:  combustion may happen to any *organic compound* meaning any compound made of carbon, hydrogen and/or oxygen...

Carbon based compound+ oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water

+ heat and light energy

Cell respiration looks like combustion,

BUT IT IS NOT. YOUR CELLS ARE NOT COMBUSTING.  The carbon based compound in this case is glucose, a simple sugar.

Glucose +   oxygen -->  carbon dioxide + water + energy for cell

Oxidation reaction

Metal +  oxygen   -->   metal oxide

ACID BASE REACTIONS ARE ALL NEUTRALIZATION REACTIONS

In summary....

 

Liver Anyone?

 

In the human body, ENZYMES help speed up chemical reactions. 

Today we take a piece of raw pork liver and add it to Hydrogen Peroxide.  Raw liver contains an enzyme called "catalase" which has a job of breaking the bonds in hydrogen peroxide.  When those bonds are broken, atoms rearrange themselves and new products are formed.  

In today's lab, we discover the new products

An introduction to Chemistry: The analogy of the Atom as lego

  

An analogy for Atoms, Compounds and Formula, drawn by SN This video is the first in the series for beginner Chemistry. In this video, I use the analogy of the atom as units very much like "lego bricks". This analogy was first used by researchers in MIT.

Science Observation and Measurement Activity

 In this lab you will take the following measurements and you will tell me how you arrived at your answer

1.  Find the volume of our classroom using only metre sticks.  Enter the data on the chart on the side of the class

2. Find the mass of the science chair using only a bathroom scale

3.  observa n interesting object under the dissecting microscope. Measure its size in the field of view.  

4.  Measure the volume of a  REGULAR shape of your choice

5.  Measure the volume of an IRREGULAR shape of your choice.
