    Study Notes

    General Chemistry for Pharmaceutical Sciences - PHARM-101

    • Lecture presented by Dr. Azza H. Rageh, Associate Professor of Pharmaceutical Analytical Chemistry, Taibah University.
    • Course material focuses on stoichiometry, solution concentration, and chemical reactions.

    Reaction Stoichiometry

    • Coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent the relative amounts (in moles) of substances.
    • Stoichiometry allows predicting product amounts from reactant amounts and vice versa.
    • Example: 2 C₈H₁₈ + 25 O₂ → 16 CO₂ + 18 H₂O. This shows 2 moles of octane react with 25 moles of oxygen to produce 16 moles of carbon dioxide and 18 moles of water.

    Concentration of Solutions

    • Concentration is the amount of solute in a solution.
    • Various concentration units are defined: percent by weight (w/w), percent by volume (v/v), percent by weight per volume (w/v), parts per million (ppm), parts per billion (ppb), molarity (M), formality (F), normality (N), and molality (m).
    • Units and symbols are provided for each unit.

    Molarity

    • Molarity (M) expresses the concentration as moles of solute per liter of solution.
    • The formula is M = moles of solute / liters of solution.
    • Units for molarity are mol/L or mol·L⁻¹ or molar.
    • Example problems are included to calculate molarity given mass and volume of solution.

    Types of Aqueous Solutions and Solubility

    • Salt water is a homogeneous mixture of NaCl and H₂O.
    • Sugar water is a homogeneous mixture of C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ and H₂O.
    • Substances dissolve in water due to attractive forces between solute and solvent particles.
    • Electrolytes dissociate into ions and conduct electricity, while nonelectrolytes do not.

    Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes

    • Strong electrolytes completely ionize in water.
    • Weak electrolytes partially ionize.
    • Nonelectrolytes do not ionize.
    • Examples of each type are given.

    Basic Types of Chemical Reactions

    • Synthesis reaction: Two or more reactants combine to form one product (A + B → AB).
    • Decomposition reaction: A complex substance breaks down into simpler substances (AB → A + B).
    • Replacement reactions (single and double): Elements or compounds exchange places or are replaced (A + BC → AC + B and AB + CD → AD + CB).

    Chemical Reactions Between Ions

    • Reactions can result in water formation, weak electrolytes, a precipitate (solid), a gas, or a complex ion formation.

    Reactions Involving Oxidation-Reduction (Redox)

    • Redox reactions involve electron transfer.
    • Oxidation is the loss of electrons, and reduction is the gain of electrons.
    • Examples of redox reactions, including combustion reactions, are provided.

    Oxidizing and Reducing Agents

    • The oxidizing agent causes the oxidation of another substance while undergoing reduction itself.
    • The reducing agent causes the reduction of another substance while undergoing oxidation itself.

    Assessment Questions

    • Various assessment questions related to the topics discussed are given. These cover calculations, identification of reaction types, and determining products of reactions. Examples of each type of reaction are presented.
