💡 Solution:

The symbolic representation of a chemical reaction using chemical symbols and formulae of reactants and products is called a chemical equation.

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Therefore, the total mass and total number of atoms of each element on the reactant side (LHS) must equal the product side (RHS).

Why are decomposition reactions called the opposite of…


📝 Question:

Why are decomposition reactions called the opposite of combination reactions? Write equations for these reactions. – Hindi Question / : ?

💡 Solution:

In a combination reaction, two or more simple substances combine to form a single complex product.

  • Equation: 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H_2O(l)
  • In a decomposition reaction, a single complex reactant breaks down into two or more simpler products.
  • Equation: 2H_2O(l) → [electricity] 2H2(g) + O2(g)

📝 Question:

Hanif burnt a magnesium ribbon using a spirit lamp and on the basis of his observations he said that the type of chemical reaction taking place is combination as well as exothermic as well as oxidation. Do you agree with Hanif? Give reasons for your answer and explain. – Hindi Question / : – ?

💡 Solution:

Yes, we completely agree with Hanif.**

  • Reasons:
  1. Combination Reaction: Two reactants (Mg and O2) combine together to produce a single product (MgO).
  2. Oxidation Reaction: Magnesium gains oxygen to form magnesium oxide, and loses electrons to form Mg2+ ions.
  3. Exothermic Reaction: The burning takes place with a dazzling white flame releasing intense heat and light energy.
