Chemistry of Compounds and Chemical Reactions
Research your ionic compound using at least two different websites, and in your own words describe:
Write out the name, provide the cation and anion, and write out the correct formula. (describe the steps for how you did this)
Briefly describe the positive ion. What kind of element is it? Does it have more than one positive ion? If so, list these.
Briefly describe your ionic compound. What are some of its physical and chemical properties?
Does it react to other molecules? If so, which ones? Write out the equation for at least one example.
What are the real-world applications for your ionic compound?
Pick two out of the four types of Chemical Reactions (Combination, Decomposition, Replacement (single or double), and Combustion). For your two selections answer the below questions:
Compare and contrast your selections. How are they similar or different.
Go out to the internet and find an example of each.
Write out the related formulas and verbally describe what is happening in that reaction.
Pick a real life example of a chemical change. Here is a good website to get you started: chemical change examples. For the example you pick answer the following questions:
Do you have first-hand experience with this chemical change? If so, describe what you saw or experienced.
Describe which of the chemical reactions may be involved in this situation.
Research and completely describe the process of the change. Include any chemical formulas and write out the formulas associated with them.
