Study Notes
Pharmaceutical Inorganic & Physical Chemistry
- Course taught by Dr. Mahmoud Mohamed Abbas
- Presented at Galala University, Faculty of Pharmacy
- Supported by Arizona State University
Compounds
- Compounds are formed when atoms bond together
- Bonding can be covalent (molecular compounds) or ionic (ionic compounds or salts)
- The molecule is the smallest unit of a compound, holding its chemical properties
- A compound is made of different elements in definite proportions
Types of Compounds
-
Ionic Compounds
- Produced from reactions between acids and bases
- Known as salts
- Formed from cations and anions
- Have a crystal structure with cations and anions in ratios
- High melting and boiling points, low vapor pressure
- Good electrical conductivity in solution
-
Molecular Compounds
- Include diatomic elements (H, N, O, halogens) and non-metallic compounds (e.g., H₂O, NH₃, CH₄, C₂H₅OH)
- Lower melting and boiling points
- Exist in gas, liquid, and solid phases
- Easy to volatilize
Molecule Representation
- Molecular Formula: Shows each element and its count in a molecule (e.g., H₂O, CO₂, C₄H₈)
- Empirical Formula: The simplest ratio of atoms in a compound(e.g., in butene C₄H₈, the empirical formula is CH₂)
- Structural Formula: Shows how atoms are connected through bonds
Atomic Weight Scale and Mole
- 12C atom has 12 atomic mass units
- 12 grams of 12C represents 1 mole
- 1 mole of 12C contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms (Avogadro's number)
- One mole of an element has a mass in grams equivalent to its atomic mass
- Example: 1 mole of sodium = 22.989 g ≈ 23 g
- One mole of any element contains Avogadro's number of atoms.
- Mole of a compound (includes diatomic elements):
- One mole has a mass in grams equivalent to the sum of the atomic masses of its atoms
- Example: Molecular weight or relative molecular mass (M,)
Molecular Weight Calculations
- Write the chemical formula
- Get the atomic mass for each element from the periodic table
- Multiply each element's mass by its atomic count in the molecule
- Add together the resulting products
- Express the result in grams (molecular weight)
Mole Calculations
- Calculate moles for CO₂, CH₄, and CH₃OH (using atomic masses C=12, H=1, O=16)
- Provide resulting grams for each
Writing Salts Chemical Formulae
- Arrange cation and anion in correct order (e.g., Ba²⁺, Cl⁻)
- Write charges below each ion.
- Combine cation and anion symbols, adjusting for numbers by reducing to lowest common ratio ( e.g., BaCl₂ ). This should also be done for polyatomic anions (within brackets).
Stocks System
- Used for metals with multiple oxidation numbers (like Iron: Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺)
- A Roman numeral indicates the oxidation number after the metal name (e.g., FeCl₂, iron (II) chloride)
Reactions and Reaction Types
- Key types of reactions: synthesis, decomposition, single displacement, double displacement, combustion
Types of Reactions
- Synthesis: When two compounds react to form a new compound.
- Decomposition: When a compound breaks down into two or more smaller compounds
- Single Displacement: One element replaces another element in a compound.
- Double Displacement: Two compounds exchange ions to form new compounds.
- Combustion: A rapid chemical reaction that forms heat and light, typically involving oxygen
Synthesis Reactions
- Examples of synthesis reactions
- 3 H₂ + N₂ → 2 NH₃
- MgO + CO₂ → MgCO₃
- 2 CO + O₂ → 2 CO₂
- Practice: Predict the products and balance the equations
Decomposition Reactions
- General Equation: AB → A + B
- Examples of decomposition reactions
- 2 Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3 H₂O
- 2 H₂O → 2 H₂ + O₂
- Use decomposition reactions to predict products and balance equations
Single Displacement Reactions
- General Equation: A + BC → AC + B
- Example Reaction: Zn + CuCl₂ → ZnCl₂ + Cu
- Reaction involves more active metal replacing less active metal within an ionic compound
Double Displacement Reactions
- General Equation: AB + CD → AD + CB
- Examples:
- Na₂SO₄ + SrCl₂ → 2 NaCl + SrSO₄
- HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O
- Na₂S + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + H₂S
Combustion Reactions
- Reaction with oxygen that gives off heat and light
- Products depend on reactants:
- Metals react to form oxides
- Hydrocarbons react to form CO₂ and H₂O
- Three components for combustion: fuel, oxygen, ignition source
Practice Questions
- Provide example equations to practice writing and balancing single and double displacement reactions
- Provide example equations for combustion reactions to practice writing and balancing.
