Premie Response 1 The coarseness of sand A Physical The tendency of fruit to easily turn brown 2 B Chemical when exposed to air Explanation The coarseness of sand refers to its physical texture. Fruit turns brown (i.e., spoils) as the result of a chemical reaction with oxygen (an oxidation reaction). Physical and Chemical Changes of Matter Physical changes of matter retain chemical composition e.g. phase changes, mixing, size changes, dissolving Chemical changes of matter alter chemical composition e.g. combustion, rusting, spoiling Q1.08 Identify each of the following as a physical or chemical change.

Enter the numerical value without units. [Image description: The figure is of a graduated cylinder partially filled with liquid. The bottom of the meniscus is between 6.6 and 6.8 mL.] Q1.22 What is an appropriate measurement of the liquid in the following 10 mL graduated cylinder? Enter the numerical value without units. [Image description: The figure is of a graduated cylinder partially filled with liquid. The bottom of the meniscus is between 6.6 and 6.8 mL.] 6.57E0 to 6.67E0 Explanation Read to 2 decimal places for the 10 mL graduate cylinder. Q1.23 The __________ number of digits in a measurement, the more precise the reading. A greater B fewer Q1.23 The __________ number of digits in a measurement, the more precise the reading. A greater B fewer Identifying Significant Figures: Some Rules All nonzero digits are significant, including all digits for a value expressed in scientific notation. For example in the number 432, there are (3) sig figs. In 1.1450×105, there are (5) sig figs. A zero is significant if it is in-between nonzero digits. For example, in the number 50002, all (5) digits are significant. A zero is significant if it is a trailing zero to the right of a decimal number. For example, in the number 432.00, all (5) digits are significant. Identifying Significant Figures: Some Rules A zero is not significant if it comes at the end of a number without a decimal. For example, in the number 4130, the zero does not count and there are (3) sig figs, not (4). A zero is not significant if it starts a decimal number less than 1. For example, in 0.0004312, none of the zeroes count and there are only (4) sig figs. Q1.24 How many sig figs are in 300.123940? Q1.24 How many sig figs are in 300.123940? 9 Explanation The two zeros after the 3 count since they are between nonzero digits (rule 2). The last zero counts since it is a trailing zero of a decimal number (rule 3). Exact Numbers Quantities whose precision are considered infinite are known as exact numbers.

Q1.25 Carry out the following calculation with the correct number of sig figs: 431.00791 + 52.5441 483.5520 Explanation There are four decimal places in 52.5441 that determine the number of decimal places in the answer. 483.55201 ≈ 483.5520 We round down because 1 < 5. Q1.26 Report 0.02315621 to 3 sig figs. Q1.26 Report 0.02315621 to 3 sig figs. 0.0232 Explanation Three sig figs would be 0.023. The digit to the immediate right of the one in 0.231 is ≥ 5, so we round up. Q1.27 The last operation is multiplication, so we should go by: A fewest sig figs. B fewest decimal places. Q1.27 The last operation is multiplication, so we should go by: A fewest sig figs. B fewest decimal places. Explanation In a multiplication step, the number of significant figures in the answer equals the fewest number of significant figures present. Significant Figures in Calculations For addition and subtraction: The number of decimal places in the final answer equals the fewest number of decimal places from the combined numbers. 1.34561 – 0.341 = 1.00461 ~ 1.005 (5 decimal places) (3 places) (report answer to 3 places) Q1.28 Carry out the following calculation with the correct number of sig figs. (431.00791 + 52.5441)/45.3200130 483.5520/45.3200130 Q1.28 Carry out the following calculation with the correct number of sig figs. (431.00791 + 52.5441)/45.3200130 10.66972 Explanation The sum in the numerator is 483.55201. Because this is addition, we go by the fewest decimal places that need to be marked: 483.5520. Dividing this by the denominator, we get 10.66972355. The last step was division, which goes by the fewest sig figs present. 483.5520 has seven sig figs, whereas 45.3200130 has ten sig figs. So, the final answer is reported to seven sig figs: 10.66972355 ~ 10.66972. Significant Figures in Calculations For multiplication and division: The number of sig figs in the final answer equals the fewest number of sig figs present from the contributing factors. 3.451 × 0.00671 = 0.02315621 ~ 0.0232 (4 sf) (3 sf) (report answer to 3 sf) Q1.29 Carry out the following calculation with the correct number of sig figs.

Q1.34 Hide Correct Answer Show Responses How many cubic meters are in 2.43 yd ? 1.86 Explanation Density A substance’s density is the ratio of its mass to its volume. Density is a physical property that is unique to each substance and is temperature dependent. At 20°C, the density of liquid water is 0.99823 g/mL. Density Density can be used as a conversion factor to relate mass and volume. How many mL does 32.1 grams of water occupy at 20°C? Q1.35 How many grams of water are contained in a 0.127 L sample at 20 °C? Q1.35 How many grams of water are contained in a 0.127 L sample at 20 °C? 127 Explanation Density: Will an object float or sink in water? Substances with a density < water’s will float. Substances with a density > water’s will sink. Q1.36 A typical water displacement experiment involves adding the object to a known volume of water.

The volume of water displaced equals which of the following? A The sum of the initial and final volumes B The difference between the initial and final volumes Explanation The volume of water displaced equals the difference between the initial and final volumes. For example: if the initial volume is 5 mL and the final volume is 8 mL, the volume of water displaced is 3 mL. Density: Method of Water Displacement The volume of water that an object displaces equals the volume of the object. A 5.0 g object is placed into a graduated cylinder with water. 90.0 mL – 65.0 mL = 25.0 mL Density = 5.0 g / 25.0 mL = 0.20 g/mL Q1.37 A 3.24 g object is immersed into a graduated cylinder filled with water.

Chapter 2: Matter at the Atomic Level Outline Introduction Early Atomic Theory J.J. Thompson The Nuclear Model of the Atom Atomic Number Ions Atomic Mass and Isotopes The Periodic Table The Mole and Avogadro’s Number Dalton’s Postulates 1. Each element is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. Dalton’s Postulates 2. All atoms of a given element are identical to one another in mass and other properties, but the atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements. Dalton’s Postulates 3. Atoms of an element are not changed into atoms of a different element by chemical reactions; atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. Dalton’s Postulates 4. Compounds are formed when atoms of more than one element combine; a given compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms. Early Atomic Theory: John Dalton (1808)  Matter consists of atoms, which are the smallest identifiable unit of matter and cannot be destroyed.  All atoms of the same element are identical to each other, but are different than atoms of another element.  Atoms combine in small whole-number ratios when forming compounds. Is it possible that any of these premises might no longer be accepted? A. Yes B. No Early Atomic Theory  Law of Conservation of Matter The total mass of substances present at the end of a chemical process is the same as the mass of substances present before the process took place. Matter is neither created or destroyed in simple chemical reactions. (Nuclear reactions are a different matter where the mass does get converted to energy). Early Atomic Theory  Law of Multiple Proportions  In chemistry the law of multiple proportions is one of the basic laws and a major tool of chemical measurement (stoichiometry)  It states that when two elements combine, they do so in a ratio of small whole numbers. For example, carbon and oxygen react to form CO or CO2, but not CO1.8. and..  If two elements can form more than one compound, then the ratios of the weights of one element in the compounds to a fixed weight of the other element are small whole numbers Early Atomic Theory  Law of Multiple Proportions Water (H2O) forms when 2.02 grams of hydrogen combine with 16.00 grams of oxygen Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) forms when 2.02 grams of hydrogen combine with 32.00 grams of oxygen Ratio of oxygen mass that can combine with a fixed mass of hydrogen is 2:1 Sulfur (S) forms multiple compounds with oxygen. When forming sulfur dioxide (SO2), 3:2 32.066 g of sulfur react with 32.00 g of oxygen. When forming sulfur trioxide (SO3), 32.066 g of sulfur reactsukl with 48.00 g of oxygen. What is the correct ratio of the two possible masses of oxygen that can react with a fixed mass of sulfur? A. 2:1 B. 1:1 C. 3:2 D. 1:2 Early Atomic Theory  Law of Definite Proportions (aka Law of Constant Composition) The same compound will always be comprised of its constituent elements in the same proportion by mass. Water always has a ratio of 1.01 grams of hydrogen for every 8.00 grams of oxygen. Water is always 11.2% hydrogen by mass. The remaining 88.8% is oxygen. In a 200 g sample of water, a chemist determines there are 22.4 grams of hydrogen and 177.6 grams of oxygen. Does this follow Proust’s law of definite proportions? A. YES B. NO Q2.06 In a 200 g sample of water, a chemist determines there are 22.4 grams of hydrogen and 177.6 grams of oxygen. Does this follow Proust’s law of definite proportions? A. Yes Explanation Yes. We have to calculate the percent by mass of each element. This is essentially the part divided by the whole. For hydrogen: 22.4 g/200 g × 100%= 11.2%. For oxygen: 177.6 g / 200 g × 100 = 88.8% = 100% - 11.2%. Hence, the data follows the law of definite proportions. J.J. Thompson and the Electron In 1909 Millikan experimentally determined the exact charge and mass of an electron. J.J. Thompson (1897) Discovered the Negatively charged particles in all elements Conclusions drawn so far: 1. Cathode ray consists of negatively charged particles and electrons are constituents of all matter. 2. The charge on electrons is found to be 1.602 x 10 -19 coulombs. Atomic Structure ❑ Discovery of Electrons: ❑ J J Thomson ( in 1897) ❑ He gave the charge to mass ratio of electrons. ❑ He also showed that the nature of the cathode ray did not depend on the material of the cathode. ▪ Now since a negative particle was discovered it was definite that the atom would also have an equal positive charge. ▪ Then at the time the most reasonable explanation seemed to be a plum pudding model Or should we say blueberry muffin! Thompson’s Model of the Atom (aka Plum-Pudding Model) An atom consists of a spherical volume of space that is positively charged. Electrons are dispersed throughout the sphere. The amount of negative charge equals the positive charge, resulting in atoms being inherently neutral. ▪Rutherford explained the existence of a focused positively charged nucleus in the atom. Ernest Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment (1911) Every atom has a positively charged dense center called the nucleus. Essentially all of an atom’s mass is found within its nucleus. The source of the deflection has to be what charge? B A. Negative B. Positive The source of the deflection has to be what charge? A.Negative A. Negative B. Positive Explanation It has to be positive because then it will repel, or deflect, other positive particles, like α particles. The Nuclear Atom ▪ Rutherford postulated a very small, dense nucleus with the electrons around the outside of the atom. ▪ Most of the volume of the atom is empty space. The Nuclear Atom ▪ Rutherford postulated a very small, dense nucleus with the electrons around the outside of the atom. ▪ Most of the volume of the atom is empty space.

Becquerel had inherited from his father, a supply of uranium salts, which phosphoresce on exposure to light. When the salts were placed near to a photographic plate covered with opaque paper, the plate was discovered to be fogged. The phenomenon was found to be common to all the uranium salts studied and was concluded to be a property of the uranium atom. Later, Becquerel showed that the rays emitted by uranium, caused gases to ionize and that they differed from X-rays in that they could be deflected by electric or magnetic fields. For his discovery of spontaneous radioactivity Becquerel was awarded half of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903, the other half being given to Pierre and Marie Curie for their study of the Becquerel radiation. https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/1903/becquerel/facts/ Radioactivity ▪ Three types of radiation were discovered by Ernest Rutherford: ▪  particles ▪  particles ▪  rays ▪ Dalton Atomic theory ▪ J J Thomson Electrons and their charge to mass ratio ▪ Millikan Charge on the electron and later the mass ▪ Henry Becquerel Radioactivity ▪ Rutherford α β and γ radiation Gold leaf experiment to show the presence of nucleus and coined the word the proton ▪ James Chadwick Neutrons Subatomic Particles ▪ Protons and electrons are particles that have a charge. ▪ Protons and neutrons have essentially the same mass. ▪ The mass of an electron is so small we ignore it. Symbols of Elements Elements are symbolized by one or two letters. Atomic Number All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons: The atomic number (Z) Atomic Mass The mass of an atom in atomic mass units (amu) is the total number of protons and neutrons in the atom. Atomic Number An atom’s atomic number is the number of protons within its nucleus. Because atoms are inherently neutral, atomic number also equals the number of electrons (neutral atoms only). On the periodic table, elements are ordered by atomic number. Isotopes: ▪ Atoms of the same element with different masses. ▪ Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons. 11 12 13 14 6C 6C 6C 6C Atomic Mass and Isotopes Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in their number of neutrons. An isotope’s atomic mass number is the sum of its number of protons and neutrons: Atomic mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons Carbon has three naturally occurring isotopes: C-12, C-13, C-14. The number after the hyphen is the atomic mass number Another common way to represent isotopes: 12C, 13C, and 14C Atomic Mass and Isotopes Not all isotopes are created equally in nature because the same number of proton can have different number of neutrons. They are different isotopes of the same element. An isotope’s percent natural abundance is a measure of the average amount the isotope naturally occurs relative to all of the 12C 13C 14C element’s isotopes. 98.93% 1.07% trace 98.93% of any sample of carbon will be C-12, while 1.07% of the same sample will be C-13. Average Mass ▪ The unit for atomic mass is amu or just u ▪ Because in the real world we use large amounts of atoms and molecules, we use average masses in calculations. ▪ Average mass is calculated from the isotopes of an element weighted by their relative abundances.

A loses B gains Q2.12 Sodium one electron to become a +1 cation. A loses Explanation Let’s go ahead and see why this makes sense. Sodium is element no. 11. A neutral sodium atom has 11 protons and 11 electrons. If the number of protons changed, then it would no longer be sodium. By losing one electron, the overall charge becomes (+11) + (−10) = +1, that is Na → Na+1 + e-1 Consider magnesium (Mg). How many protons (p) and electrons (e) are in a Mg+2 cation?

(a.k.a. chemical compounds) Every chemical compound has its own name and formula There are systematic naming rules. MN - Ionic Bonds NN - Mostly Ionic Bonds MM - Covalent Cation Anion Main gp Transition Chemical Formulas Systematic listing of the elements in a compound Elements are listed from most metallic to least metallic Subscripts indicate how many of an element are in the compound CO2 H2O NH3 Octet Rule o Rule of 8 (or 2 for very small atoms) o In 1904, Richard Abegg formulated that the difference between the maximum positive and negative valences of an element is frequently eight. o This rule was used later in 1916 when Gilbert N. Lewis formulated the "octet rule" in his cubical atom theory. o The octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. o When atoms have fewer than eight electrons, they tend to react and form more stable compounds. o Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons so that each atom has a full outermost energy level, which typically consists of 8 electrons (called an octet) ______ form ions with a 2+ charge when they react with nonmetals. A) Alkali metals B) Alkaline earth metals C) Halogens D) Noble gases E) None of these choices ______ form ions with a 2+ charge when they react with nonmetals. A) Alkali metals B) Alkaline earth metals C) Halogens D) Noble gases E) None of these choices All ionic compounds are crystalline solids with high melting points. Ionic Compounds Ionic compounds are between Metal and nonmetal Metal loses one or more electron(s) to become positively charged cation Na → Na+ Mg → Mg2+ Nonmetal gains one or more electron(s) to become negatively charged anion Cl → Cl– S → S2– Naming Ionic Compounds Metals cations are named as such like sodium ion, potassium ion etc. but Monoatomic nonmetal ions end with an ide oxygen → oxide sulfur → sulfide nitrogen → nitride phosphorus → phosphide We get their charge from the periodic table.

The charge on the anion becomes the subscript on the cation. If these subscripts are not in the lowest whole-number ratio, divide them by the greatest common factor. Let us see how we can figure out the charges on the ions that make the compound- o FeO o What is the charge on the oxide ion- refer to your periodic table, see it’s position and see how many electrons are needed to complete the octet. o o Now see how many positive ions should be on iron to neutralize the charge on oxygen. o Fe2O3 o This one is even easier- o The charges are crisscrossed! o HgO o Now figure this one out using the first example o Hg2O o Now do this one … Which of the following is a transition metal and will have more than one kind of ion. A. Na B. F C. Cu D. Al E. Cs Poly atomic ions: 1. Only two cations: NH4+ and H3O+ 2. Anions are many In most chemical reactions the polyatomic ions will move as a whole. Polyatomic ions : These can be cations or anions Naming Ionic Compounds containing polyatomic ions For example; NaC2H3O2 = sodium acetate Na2CO3 = sodium carbonate Na3PO4 = sodium phosphate CuC2H3O2 = copper(I) acetate FeCO3 = iron(II) carbonate FePO4 = iron(III) phosphate Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature o When there are two oxyanions involving the same element: The one with fewer oxygens ends in -ite NO − : nitrite; SO 2− : sulfite 2 3 The one with more oxygens ends in -ate NO − : nitrate; SO 2− : sulfate 3 4 indicating that a chemical compound contains a high proportio n of a specified element: peroxide ; perchloride. indicating that a chemical element is in a higher than usual state of oxidation: permanganate ; perchlorate ClO − : hypochlorite ClO2− : chlorite ClO3− : chlorate ClO4− : perchlorate Inorganic Nomenclature o Write the name of the cation. o If the anion is an element, change its ending to -ide; if the anion is a polyatomic ion, simply write the name of the polyatomic ion. If the cation can have more than one possible charge, write the charge as a Roman numeral in parentheses. This happens in the case of transition metals. The other metals will have only a fixed charge. Naming Hydrated Ionic Compounds Ionic compound prefix-hydrate Name the ionic compound using its rules Take the prefix from the table for the number of waters associated with the compound For example Mg3(PO4)2 2H2O = magnesium phosphate dihydrate CuSO4 5H2O = copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate Hydrated copper(II)sulfate is vibrant blue, while anhydrous copper (II) sulfate is a white solid Some chemicals are known by their common names o H2O Water o NH3 Ammonia o H2S Hydrogen sulfide o H2O2 Hydrogen peroxide What is the correct formula for aluminum carbonate?

Chapter 4: Chemical Reactions and Stoichiometry Introduction In any given physical or chemical change, matter is neither destroyed nor created. Mass of products formed must equal the mass of reactants entering the chemical reaction Chemical reaction is defined as a process where the bonds of reactant molecules break and new bonds form to generate the product, without changing any elements. Introduction Chemical reactions are represented by chemical equations, which show reactants on the left side and products on the right side. The first step in stoichiometry is to balance the chemical equation and determine the stoichiometric coefficients of both the reactants and products. Stoichiometry is a mathematical representation of the chemical reaction, which is the relationship between the various amounts of species in the reaction. Stoichiometry Antoine Lavoisier discovered that during a chemical reaction the total mass of all compounds remains the same. He was the first to introduce the concept of stoichiometry, which relates amounts of compounds involved in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometry is based on the law of conservation of mass, which states that the total mass of reactants must equal the total mass of the products. Chemical Equations The number and types of reactant atoms has to equal the number and types of product atoms. For example, consider the following generic balanced chemical reaction between reactant molecules A and B to form product molecules C and D: The lower case letters a, b, c, and d are known as coefficients. Chemical Equations We can apply these principles to the chemical reaction between methane and oxygen: One molecule of CH4 reacts with 2 molecules of O2 to produce 1 molecule of CO2 and 2 molecules of H2O. To count the total number of individual atoms, coefficients are multiplied by the subscripts. Stoichiometry Consider the following unbalanced chemical equation: C2H6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O. There are 2 carbons on the reactant side and 1 carbon on the product side. Hence, a coefficient of 2 is required for CO2. Counting H atoms, we get 6 on the reactant side and 2 on the product side. A coefficient of 3 is needed for H2O. Stoichiometry Now that the carbon and hydrogen atoms are balanced, we can examine oxygen. There are 2 O atoms on the reactant side and a total of 7 oxygen atoms on the product side. Now how do we proceed- We can only balance with whole numbers, and we need 7 O atoms. Oxygen is O2 C2H6 + 7O2  2CO2 + 3 H2O Now this messes up everything else as we now have 14 O atoms. Now we try to fix this problem 2 C2H6 + 7O2  4CO2 + 6 H2O Chemical Stoichiometry We often use stoichiometry in our daily lives without knowing it. Manufacturing or assembling a bicycle is a very good example of stoichiometry. One bicycle is made from two wheels, one frame, one handlebar, two pedals, and one seat. Chemical Stoichiometry The above numbers are equivalent to stoichiometric coefficients and are referred to as the number of moles of the reactants and products. If one component is known, then we can use these stoichiometric coefficients to determine the amounts needed of the other components to assemble Chemical Stoichiometry The number of bicycles that can be assembled can also be determined using a stoichiometric relationship: Stoichiometric Calculations The coefficients in the balanced equation give the ratio of moles of reactants and products Stoichiometric Calculations From the mass of Substance A you can use the ratio of the coefficients of A and B to calculate the mass of Substance B formed (if it’s a product) or used (if it’s a reactant) Mass-to-Mass Conversions aA + bB → cC + dD a, b, c, and d are the number of moles of A, B, C, and D If the mass of A is given, then we can determine mathematically the mass of B needed to react with A: How many grams of water are produced in the oxidation of 1.00 g of glucose, C6H12O6?

No Suppose if we take 5 g of H2 and 5 g of O2 For the reaction: 2H2 + O2 2H2O Can you tell which component is limiting without converting it to moles? The Limiting Reactant The limiting reactant is the reactant that limits the amount of product that can be formed. The limiting reactant is always completely consumed during the course of the reaction. An excess reactant is defined as any of the other reactants still present after the consumption of the limiting reactant.

(c) How many moles of the excess reactant remain at the end of the reaction? The Percent Yield Chemical reactions sometimes appear to not proceed according to the stoichiometric coefficients. A reason for this is that most reactions have “side reactions,” which compete for reactants and produce undesired products. As a result, some of the reactants will be used while some will be left over when the reaction is completed. It is important to determine the efficiency of a chemical reaction. Percent Yield How much product is synthesized in ideal conditions is called the theoretical yield The amount of product actually produced by a reaction (i.e., in the lab) will usually be less than the theoretical yield and is referred to as the actual yield. chemists refer to the percent yield of the chemical reaction, which is mathematically represented as follows: Theoretical Yield o The theoretical yield is the amount of product that can be made o In other words, it’s the amount of product possible as calculated through the stoichiometry problem o This is different from the actual yield, the amount one actually produces and measures Percent Yield A comparison of the amount obtained to the amount it was possible to make Actual Yield Percent Yield = x 100 Theoretical Yield Percent Yield Suppose you mixed enough chocolate chip cookie dough to make 12 chocolate chip cookies according to the recipe. However, you end up with only 10 chocolate chip cookies. Chemical Reactions in Aqueous Solutions Chemical Reactions in Aqueous Solutions A solution is defined as any homogenous mixture that is physically and chemically the same throughout the whole system. A solution has two main components: - the solvent (present in large amounts; water in the case of aqueous solutions), - the solute, the substance that is dissolved in the solute and usually present in relatively small amounts. There can be more than one solute in a solution, but there is never more than one solvent. Chemical Reactions in Aqueous Solutions Ions of the transition elements, such as manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu), produce interesting and colorful homogenous solutions when dissolved in water Molarity To track and quantify the amount of solute added to water to make an aqueous solution, we use solution concentration to express the amount of solute present in a solution. This is known as molarity (M) and is mathematically expressed as follows: Calculate the molarity of a solution made by dissolving 23.4 g of sodium sulfate (Na2SO4) in enough water to form 125 mL of solution. moles of solute Molarity (M) = volume of solution in liters o How would you make 200.0 ml of 0.5 M NaCl solution. o First calculate how many moles of NaCl are needed. o Then convert the moles to g of NaCl M = mol mol = ML = 0.5 mol x 0.200L = 0.100 mol NaCl L L 0.100 mol NaCl x 58.442 g NaCl = 5.844 g NaCl 1 mol NaCl = 6 g NaCl o How many grams of Na2SO4 are there in 15 mL of 0.50 M Na2SO4?

(b) How many milliliters of 0.50 M Na2SO4 solution are needed to provide 0.038 mol of this salt? moles of solute Molarity (M) = volume of solution in liters Solubility, Non-electrolytes and Electrolytes Ionic solids and some polar compounds, such as strong acids and strong bases, tend to have the highest solubility and form ions when dissolved in water. The result is an electrolyte solution, which is defined as any aqueous solution that conducts electricity. Electrolytes o Substances that dissociate into ions when dissolved in water. o A nonelectrolyte may dissolve in water, but it does not dissociate into ions when it does so,for example, sugar Solubility, Non-electrolytes and Electrolytes Examples of strong electrolytes include ionic compounds such as sodium chloride (NaCl), strong bases such as potassium hydroxide (KOH), and strong acids like hydrochloric acid (HCl) and nitric acid (HNO3). On the other hand, when other compounds, such as weak acids and weak bases, dissolve in water, fewer ions are produced, resulting in lower conductivity These are called weak electrolytes. Solubility, Non-electrolytes and Electrolytes Both acetic acid (CH3COOH, weak acid) and ammonia (NH3, weak base) are considered examples of weak electrolytes. Although these compounds are highly soluble in water, acetic acid is a weak acid and, therefore, a weak electrolyte. Non-electrolytes are substances that dissolve in water to form neutral molecules and have essentially no effect on electrical conductivity Examples of non-electrolytes that are very soluble in water (but essentially non-conductive) are ethanol (C2H6O), ethylene glycol (C2H6O2), glucose (C6H12O6), and sucrose (C12H22O11). Solubility of Ionic Compounds How can we determine which ionic solids dissolve in water, and which do not? Strong Electrolytes Are… o Strong acids Strong Electrolytes Are… o Strong acids o Strong bases Solubility of Ionic Compounds Solubility o All alkali metal compounds are water soluble, no matter what the anion o All Ammonium compounds are soluble, no matter what the anion. Solubility NO3- (nitrate) ClO4- (perchlorate) CH3CO2- (acetate) All these anions form only soluble compounds, no matter what the cation happens to be attached to them. Types of Chemical Reactions Double Displacement Reactions A double-displacement or replacement or metathesis reaction is a type of chemical reaction where the positive ions (cations) and the negative ions (anions) of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds or products. Both precipitation and acid–base neutralization reactions are considered examples of double-replacement reactions. Double Replacement (exchange) Reactions o Metathesis comes from a Greek word that means “to transpose” AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq)  AgCl (s) + KNO3 (aq) Molecular Equation The molecular equation lists the reactants and products in their molecular form. AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq)  AgCl (s) + KNO3 (aq) Precipitation Reactions Precipitation reactions occur when two soluble aqueous ionic solutions react to form a solid precipitate (i.e. an insoluble ionic solid in water). According to the solubility rules for these ionic solids in water, NaCl, AgNO3, and NaNO3 are completely soluble in water while AgCl is insoluble in water and forms a white precipitate. Ionic Equation o In the ionic equation all strong electrolytes (strong acids, strong bases, and soluble ionic salts) are dissociated into their ions. o This more accurately reflects the species that are found in the reaction mixture. Ag+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) + K+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)  AgCl (s) + K+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) Net Ionic Equation o To form the net ionic equation, cross out anything that does not change from the left side of the equation to the right. o The only things left in the equation are those things that change (i.e., react) during the course of the reaction. o Those things that didn’t change (and were deleted from the net ionic equation) are called spectator ions. Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + K+(aq) + Cl-(aq)  AgCl (s) + K+(aq) + NO3-(aq) Net Ionic Equation o To form the net ionic equation, cross out anything that does not change from the left side of the equation to the right. o The only things left in the equation are those things that change (i.e., react) during the course of the reaction. Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq)  AgCl (s) Writing Net Ionic Equations 1. Write a balanced molecular equation. 2. Dissociate all strong electrolytes. Do not dissociate a. The solids, b. liquids and c. gases The liquids and gases are covalently linked so they will not dissociate in water d. the weak acids are also left as is, as they dissociate a negligible amount in water. 3. Cross out anything that remains unchanged from the left side to the right side of the equation. 4. Write the net ionic equation with the species that remain.

The most common ones are those producing CO2(g), SO2(g), NH3(g), or H2S(g). The visible sign is the formation of bubbles in solution All but CO2(g) give off an appreciable odor When a carbonate salt reacts with an acid, CO2(g) is produced via an intermediate reaction: Gas-Forming Reactions o These double replacement reactions do not give the product expected. o The expected product decomposes to give a gaseous product (CO 2 or SO2) along with water.

Oxidation-Reduction Reactions o An oxidation occurs when an atom or ion loses electrons. o A reduction occurs when an atom or ion gains electrons. o i l r i g Oxidation-Reduction Reactions One cannot occur without the other. Electron Transfer Reactions or Redox Reactions Electron transfer reactions (oxidation–reduction reactions, or redox reactions) are defined as reactions where electrons move from one atom or molecule to another atom or molecule The substance that loses one or more electrons is said to be oxidized while the substance that gains one or more electrons is said to be reduced Oxidation Is Loss Reduction Is Gain Identifying Oxidizing and Reducing Agents The two main components of the electron transfer reaction are the oxidizing and reducing agents. The oxidizing agent is defined as the reactant (either an element or a compound) that gains electron(s) (i.e., is reduced). The reducing agent is the reactant (either element or compound) that loses electron(s) (i.e., is oxidized). Electron Transfer Reactions Oxidation States Oxidation States indicate the number of electrons that the atom already gained or lost when chemically bonded with another element Any pure element in the periodic table will have an oxidation state of zero. Group IA cations will have an oxidation state of +1. Group VI anions will usually have an oxidation state of −2, particularly when the element is combined with more metallic elements. Oxidation Numbers o Elements in their elemental form have an oxidation number of 0. o Fe metal = 0 o Zn metal = 0 o O2 gas = 0 o The oxidation number of a monatomic ion is the same as its charge. Oxidation Numbers Cl⁻ = -1 Fe ²⁺ +2 o Nonmetals tend to have negative oxidation numbers, although some are positive in certain compounds or ions.  Oxygen has an oxidation number of −2, except in the peroxide ion in which it has an oxidation number of −1.  Hydrogen is −1 when bonded to a metal, +1 when bonded to a nonmetal. Oxidation Numbers o Nonmetals tend to have negative oxidation numbers, although some are positive in certain compounds or ions.  Fluorine always has an oxidation number of −1.  The other halogens have an oxidation number of −1 when they are negative; they can have positive oxidation numbers, however, most notably in oxyanions. Oxidation Numbers o The sum of the oxidation numbers in a neutral compound is 0. o The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is the charge on the ion. Oxidation States What is the oxidation state of the Cr atom (transition metal) in potassium dichromate K2Cr2O7? The 2 Cr atoms have an oxidation state of +12; therefore, the oxidation state of 1 Cr atom is +6. Determine the oxidation number of sulfur in each of the following: (a) H 2S, (b) S8, (c) SCl2, (d) Na2SO3, (e) SO42–. (a) H2S: Hydrogen is −1 when bonded to a metal, +1 when bonded to a nonmetal. 2(+1) + x = 0, x = -2 (b) S8: Because this is an elemental form of sulfur, the oxidation number of S is 0 (c) SCl2: The halogens have an oxidation number of −1 when they are in binary compounds. x + 2(–1) = 0 , x = +2 (d) Na2SO3 :Sodium, an alkali metal, always has an oxidation number of +1 in its compounds Oxygen has a common oxidation state of –2 2(+1) + x + 3(-2) = 0 x =+ 4 (e) SO42– : The oxidation state of O is –2.
