DIRECTIONS: Write Tif the statement is correct, and F if the statement is incorrect. 5. The empirical formula is the same multiple of the molecular formula. 6. Chemical equations use symbols instead of words to summarize chemical reactions. 7. Products are the substances at the beginning of chemical reactions. 8. Chemical equations shows how atoms are rearranged in a chemical reaction. 9. The Law of Conservation of Mass states that atoms cannot be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The “Chemistry in Focus” segment The Beetle That Shoots Straight discusses the bombardier beetle and the chemical reaction of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. m:math>H2O2(aq)H2O(l)+O2(g) e balanced equation given in the segment is m:math>2H2O2(aq)2H2O(l)+O2(g) y can’t we balance the equation in the following way? m:math>H2O2(aq)H2(g)+O2(g) e molecular-level pictures like those in Section 6.3 to support your answer.
One part of the problem-solving strategy for balancing chemical equations is “starting with the most complicated molecule.” What if you started with a different molecule? Could you still eventually balance the chemical equation? How would this approach be different from the suggested technique?
4.64 Using the web, find information about the amount of lead in the environment during the past 50 years. Correlate what you observe with the presence or absence of tetraethyl lead in gasoline.
DDT (molar mass = 354.49 g/mol) was a widely used insecticide that was banned from use in the United States in 1973. This ban was brought about due to the persistence of DDT in many different ecosystems, leading to high accumulations of the substance in many birds of prey. The insecticide was shown to cause a thinning of egg shells, pushing many birds toward extinction. If a 20-L drum of DDT was spilled into a pond, resulting in a DDT concentration of 8.75 105 M, how long would it take for the levels of DDT to reach a concentration of 1.41 107 M (a level that is generally assumed safe in mammals)? Assume the decomposition of DDT is a first-order process with a half-life of 56.0 days.
Determine a chemical formula from elemental analysis (i.e., from % composition).
Classify each of the following statements as true or false: a In a chemical reaction, reacting substances are destroyed and new substances are formed. b A chemical equation expresses the quantity relationships between reactants and products in terms of moles. c Elements combine to form compounds in combination reactions. d Compounds decompose into elements in decomposition reactions. e A nonmetal cannot replace a nonmetal in a single replacement reaction.
