Study Notes
Hydrogen on the Periodic Table
- Hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table.
- Hydrogen has one electron in the 1s atomic orbital.
- There has long been debate as to whether hydrogen should be placed with the alkali metals (group 1) or the halogens (group 17).
Properties of Hydrogen and its Isotopes
- Hydrogen exists as a diatomic gas (H2).
- Hydrogen is a colourless, odourless, and tasteless gas.
- There are three naturally occurring isotopes of hydrogen: protium (1H), deuterium (2H) and tritium (3H).
Industrial Production of Hydrogen
- Hydrogen can be produced industrially in several ways.
- One method involves the electrolysis of water.
- Another way is by reacting dilute acids with metals.
The Hydrogen Economy
- Hydrogen is seen as a potential fuel source.
- The goal is to develop a clean and sustainable hydrogen economy.
Hydrogen Compounds
- Hydrogen forms compounds with many other elements.
- Hydrogen forms ionic compounds with elements like sodium and potassium.
- Hydrogen forms covalent compounds with many different elements.
Revisit Hydrogen Bonding
- Hydrogen bonding is a strong type of intermolecular interaction.
- It occurs between hydrogen and a highly electronegative element.
- Hydrogen bonding plays an important role in the physical and chemical properties of water and other molecules.
Boron Hydrides
- Boron and aluminium form many hydrides, including diborane (B2H6).
- Diborane is a highly reactive compound.
- Diborane can react with water to form boronic acid and hydrogen.
Group 14 Hydrides
- The group 14 elements (carbon, silicon, germanium, tin, lead) form hydrides.
- Methane (CH4) is a very stable hydride.
- The stability of the hydrides decreases as you move down the group.
Reactivity of E−H Bonds
- The strength of the E−H bond influences the reactivity of hydrides.
- Boron and aluminium hydrides are used as reducing agents in organic and inorganic chemistry.
Sodium Borohydride and Lithium Aluminium Hydride
- Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) and lithium aluminium hydride (LiAlH4) commonly used as reducing agents in chemistry.
Fe Coordination Complexes
- Iron (II) forms coordination complexes with various ligands, such as water and cyanide.
- The bonding in coordination complexes can be explained using valence bond theory or crystal field theory.
- The magnetic properties of coordination complexes can be investigated experimentally using a Gouy Balance.
- Complexes that are diamagnetic (no unpaired electrons) are repelled by a magnetic field.
- Complexes that are paramagnetic (unpaired electrons) are attracted by a magnetic field.
