Chemical Reactions and Precipitation



Another long and hard unit where nomenclature is crucial to the success on the tests and quizzes. Chemical reactions is the topic of this unit, where I have to learn if and how two different chemicals join together in a chemical reaction. Reactions only occur if their is a driving force present in the products of the chemical equation. We leaned that chemical reactions either: form a solid, form water, transfer electrons, or form a gas. First we went over double replacement reactions, which form a solid from two aqueous solutions, and is one of the four basic chemical reactions. More information on them here.

To be able to successful complete double replacement reactions, I need to know my nomenclature and solubility rules. Here is a quiz on the rules.
