    Study Notes

    Chapter 5: Reactions in Aqueous Solution

    • Aqueous solutions involve ionic compounds reacting in water.
    • Examples include KMnO4 in water, forming K+(aq) + MnO4-(aq).
    • Ionic compounds dissolve in water, with water molecules surrounding the ions (cations and anions).
    • Examples include CuCl₂ in water.
    • Aqueous solutions can conduct electricity due to the presence of ions, making them electrolytes.
    • Strong electrolytes like HCl, CuCl₂, and NaCl dissociate completely into ions.
    • Weak electrolytes like acetic acid only partially ionize.
    • Nonelectrolytes like sugar and ethanol dissolve in water but do not conduct electricity.

    Water Solubility of Ionic Compounds

    • Compounds containing ions like Na+, K+, and NH₄⁺ are generally soluble in water.
    • Compounds containing ions like Cl⁻, Br⁻, I⁻, and F⁻ are typically soluble unless paired with certain metal cations such as Ag+, Hg₂²⁺, Pb²⁺, or Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺ and Pb²⁺.
    • Salts of sulfate (SO₄²⁻) are generally soluble, with exceptions for Ca²⁺, Sr²⁺, Ba²⁺, and Pb²⁺.
    • Many metal carbonates and sulfides, phosphates, oxalates, and chromates are insoluble.
    • Exceptions for solubility exist for various salts, including those of NH₄⁺ and alkali metal cations, or other specific metal ions e.g. Ba(OH)₂.
    • Common insoluble anions include sulfides, carbonates, phosphates, and those forming many metal oxides and hydroxides that aren't specifically noted as exceptions.

    Acids

    • Acids release H⁺ ions in water.
    • Strong acids like HCl, H₂SO₄, HClO₄, and HNO₃ fully dissociate.
    • Weak acids like acetic acid (CH₃CO₂H) partially dissociate.
    • Nonmetal oxides can act as acids by reacting with water (e.g., CO₂ + H₂O → H₂CO₃).

    Bases

    • Bases release OH⁻ ions in water.
    • Strong bases like NaOH fully dissociate.
    • Weak bases like ammonia partially dissociate.
    • Metal oxides can be bases (e.g., CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂).

    Net Ionic Equations

    • Net ionic equations show only the species directly involved in a reaction, omitting spectator ions.
    • Spectator ions are not involved in the reaction itself.
    • Precipitation, acid-base, and gas-forming reactions are examples of exchange reactions.

    Quantitative Aspects of Reactions in Solution

    • Molarity (M) is the moles of solute per liter of solution.
    • Molarity is used to calculate the concentration of a solution.
    • Preparing a solution involves accurate weighing of solutes and dissolving them in a specific volume of solvent.
    • Diluting an existing solution involves adding more solvent to decrease the concentration.

    Types of Reactions in Water

    • Exchange reactions involve the exchange of ions between reactants.
    • Precipitation reactions form an insoluble product.
    • Acid-base reactions produce water.
    • Gas-forming reactions yield a gaseous product.
    • Redox reactions involve electron transfer.

    Redox Reactions

    • Redox reactions involve a change in oxidation states.
    • Oxidation represents an increase in oxidation number.
    • Reduction represents a decrease in oxidation number.
    • Oxidizing agents gain electrons, while reducing agents lose electrons.

    Oxidation Numbers

    • Oxidation numbers indicate the assigned charge of an atom in a compound.
    • Rules for assigning oxidation numbers include considering the charge of an ion and the charge of hydrogen in most compounds, common for some elements like H, O, etc
    • Oxidation numbers in free elements are zero.

    Titrations

    • Titrations are used to determine the unknown concentrations of certain substances by gradually reacting them with a solution of known concentration.
    • An indicator is used to mark the equivalence point, where the reactants have reacted completely.
