*[[Combustion|Burning]]*[[Vinegar and Bicarbonate of Soda|Adding Bicarbonate of Soda to Vinegar]]. ==Key Stage 3=====Meaning===A [[Chemical Reaction]] is when the [[atom]]s in [[molecule]]s break their [[Chemical Bond|bonds]] and form new [[Chemical Bond|bonds]], usually with other [[atom]]s. ===About Chemical Reactions===: Most '''chemical reactions''' are irreversible.: In a '''chemical reaction''' the [[atom]]s rearrange to form a new [[substance]].: '''Chemical reactions''' often need some [[energy]] to start, like [[combustion]] where the [[fuel]] needs to be [[Heat|heated]] to start.: If a '''chemical reaction''' gives off more energy than it needs to start then it is called an [[exothermic]] '''reaction'''. In these '''reactions''' the [[temperature]] increases.: If a '''chemical reaction''' takes in more energy than it gives out then it is called an [[endothermic]] '''reaction'''. In these '''reactions''' the [[temperature]] decreases. ===Signs of Chemical Reactions===There are three signs that a '''chemical reaction''' is taking place:*A colour change.*A temperature change.*[[Effervescence]] (bubbles of [[gas]] are given off. ===Examples=== These are two examples of [[Combustion]]{| class="wikitable"|-|[[File:RearrangeAtoms1.png|center|500px]]|-| style="height:20px; width:500px; text-align:center;" |[[Hydrogen]] + [[Oxygen]] → [[Water]] 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O|} {| class="wikitable"|-|[[File:RearrangeAtoms2.png|center|500px]]|-| style="height:20px; width:500px; text-align:center;" |[[Methane]] + [[Oxygen]] → [[Water]] + [[Carbon Dioxide]] CH₄ + 2O₂ → 2H₂O + CO₂|} ===Types of Chemical Reaction===*[[Combustion]] - A [[chemical]] burns in the presence of [[Oxygen]].*[[Thermal Decomposition]] - A [[compound]] breaks down into smaller [[compound]]s.*[[Oxidation]] - A [[chemical]] '''reacts''' with [[Oxygen]].*[[Displacement Reaction]] - One [[element]] replaces another in a [[compound]].*[[Neutralisation]] - An [[acid]] and a [[base]] '''react''' to make a [[salt]]. ==Key Stage 4=====Meaning===A [[Chemical Reaction]] is when the [[atom]]s in [[molecule]]s break their [[Chemical Bond|bonds]] and form new [[Chemical Bond|bonds]], usually with other [[atom]]s. ===About Chemical Reactions===: In a '''chemical reaction''' the [[atom]]s rearrange to form a new [[substance]].: '''Chemical reactions''' often need some [[energy]] to start, like [[combustion]] where the [[fuel]] needs to be [[Heat|heated]] to start.: If a '''chemical reaction''' gives off more energy than it needs to start then it is called an [[exothermic]] '''reaction'''.

In these '''reactions''' the [[temperature]] decreases.There are three ways that '''chemical reactions''' can happen:*[[Electron Transfer]] - [[Electron]]s from the [[Outer Shell]] of one [[atom]] move to the [[Outer Shell]] of another [[atom]] to form an [[Ionic Bond]].*[[Proton Transfer]] - [[Hydrogen#Ion|Hydrogen Ions]] are removed from an [[acid]] and added to a [[base]].*[[Electron Sharing]] - [[Electron]]s in the [[Outer Shell]] of one [[atom]] are shared with the [[Outer Shell]] of another [[atom]] forming a [[Covalent Bond|covalent bond]]. ===References=======AQA==== :[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0008158770/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0008158770&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=ec31595e720e1529e49876c3866fff6e ''Chemical reaction, page 108, GCSE Physics; Student Book, Collins, AQA ''] ====OCR====:[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0198359837/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0198359837&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=3c4229e8b023b2b60768e7ea2307cc6f ''Chemical reactions, pages 27, Gateway GCSE Physics, Oxford, OCR ''] ==Beyond the Curriculum=={{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m6RtOpqvtU}}
