Chapter 8: Chemical Reactions

Chemical reactions are at the heart of Chemistry. Reactions involve the change of one or more substances into one or more other substances. In Chapter 8, we discuss the details of chemical reactions. The emphasis is on predicting the products of a reaction and writing balanced chemical equations to represent the changes that occur.
