**JOHN LOCKE** - *"Personal identity is made possible by self-consciousness"* - All knowledge originates from direct experiences (*EMPIRICISM*) - Knowledge is based on the careful observation of sense experience and memories of previous experiences - To discover the nature of personal identity, we're going to find out what it means to be a person - A person is a thinking, intelligent being who can reason and to reflect - A person is someone who considers itself to be the same thing in different times and different places - Consciousness always accompanies thinking and is an essential part of the thinking process - Consciousness makes possible the belief that we are the same identity ion different times and different places -

The living body is a natural synthesis of mind and biology - Consciousness is a dynamic form responsible for actively structuring our consciousness **SUMERIAN CIVILIZATION** **SUMER** was the southernmost region of ancient Mesopotamia **MODERN-DAY IRAQ AND KUWAIT**-considered the cradle of civilization. \*The name comes from Akkadian, the language of the north of Mesopotamia, and means "land of the civilized kings". \*The Sumerians called themselves "the black headed people" and their land, in cuneiform script, was simply "the land" or "the land of the black headed people" \*Book of Genesis, Sumer is known as Shinar. \*The Sumerians lived from 3500 B.C. -- 2000 B.C. although other sources say that the civilization started as early as 3000 B.C - **WAY OF LIVING** **-**built small square houses built of mud -lived in Mesopotamia or the Fertile Crescent -This area is between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers and runs along the eastern side of the Mediterranean Sea. **MESOPOTAMIA**-Greek word means Land Between the Rivers -very inventive and hardworking -mostly farmers and had well organized communal (community) life -skilled in the use of such metal as copper, gold, silver and had developed by 3000 B.C. -Fine artistry -They were not only craftsman and farmers, but scribes, scholars, priests, priestesses, and merchants also. - **THEIR HERO** - **GILGAMESH-**an epic, a long story about a hero - **WORSHIPPING** **-**The Sumerians built temples called **[ziggurats]** in the center of their cities **-**used as a house for the cities' gods **-**The temple was raised on a platform, and was made of thousands of mud bricks. **\*GODS THAT THEY WORSHIPPED**-Anu, the heaven god, Ea, the water god , and Enki, the god of wisdom. - **INDUSTRY CREATION** **-**They developed trade, and established industries, including weaving, leather work, metalwork, masonry, and pottery, frying pans, razors, cosmetic sets, shepherd's pipes, harps, kilns to cook bricks and pottery, bronze hand tools like hammers and axes, the plow, the plow seeder, and the first superhero, Gilgamesh**.** **-**used looms to weave cloth from wool and because they traded heavily throughout the Persian Gulf **-** - **WRITING AND SCHOOLS** -Since hieroglyphs are considered "pictures", the Sumerians invented the first writing system, with actual "letters" developing Sumerian cuneiform writing out of earlier proto-writing systems by about the 30th century BCE.

QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS** - **QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS** -identification of a substance, ro determine what chemical elements are included into sample tested, what ions, functional groups or molecules are in its composition -based on chemical tests to identify inorganic ions(cations and anions) **Characterized by External Reactions:** 1. Precipitates forming with certain color in solutions 2. Color changes in sol'n or alloy 3. Elimination of evolving gaseous products w/out odor or w/ a certain odor - **QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS SCHEME** -confirm the presence or absence of certain materials -identification of aqueous ions **2 DISTINCT PHASES:** 1. A **SCHEME** must be developed to separate the ions from each other 2. A **DIFFERENT TEST** is performed to uniquely confirm the identity of each separated ions **QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS**- to separate and detect cations and anions in a sample substance **IN PERFORMING QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS:** - Observe if a sample substance when added to water will: 1. **DISSOLVE** - see through (transparent)-soluble 1. **SUSPENDED** in water and NOT DISSOLVE- it is insoluble - **INSOLUBLE SUBSTANCE**- liquid turn cloudy, it is called precipitation - **PRECIPITATE**- settle over time and the solid will form a layer on the bottom of the test-tube - **PRECIPITATIONS and SOLUBILITY PRINCIPLES**- bases also of qualitative analysis **PRECIPITATION REACTIONS** -when cations and anions in aqueous sol'n combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called **PRECIPITATE** -Not all aqueous reactions form precipitates, one must consult the solubility rules before determining the state of the products and writing a net ionic equation **PROPERTIES OF PRECIPITATES** **PRECIPITATES-** insoluble ionic solid products of a reaction ; when cations and anions combine in an aqueous sol'n -depend on temperature (buffers), sol'n concentration -Most ppt reaction are single replacement reactions/double replacement reactions - **DOUBLE REPLACEMENT REACTION** -ions replace each other based on their charges as either a cation or anion -partner "switching" ; 2 reactants lose their partner and form a bond with a different partner -classified as a precipitation reaction when the chemical equation in question occurs in aqueous sol'n and one of the products formed is insoluble EXAMPLE: - Because the reactants are ionic and aqueous, they dissociate and are therefore soluble. - However, there are six solubility guidelines used to predict which molecules are insoluble in water. - These molecules form a solid precipitate in solution. - **THE SOLUBILITY RULES** -These rules provide guidelines that tell which ions form solids and which remain in their ionic form in aqueous solution. -The rules are to be followed from the top down, meaning that if something is insoluble (or soluble) due to rule 1, it has precedence over a higher-numbered rule. 1\. Salts formed with group 1 cations and NH4+ cations are soluble.There are some exceptions for certain Li+ salts. 2\. Acetates (C2H3O2−), nitrates (NO3−), and perchlorates (ClO4−) are soluble. 3\. Bromides, chlorides, and iodides are soluble. 4\. Sulfates (SO4)2− are soluble with the exception of sulfates formed with Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ 5\. Salts containing silver, lead, and mercury (I) are insoluble. 6\. Carbonates (CO3)2−, phosphates (PO4)3−, sulfides, oxides, and hydroxides (OH)− are insoluble. Sulfides formed with group 2 cations and hydroxides formed with calcium, strontium, and barium are exceptions. \*If the rules state that an ion is soluble, then it remains in its aqueous ion form. \*If an ion is insoluble based on the solubility rules, then it forms a solid with an ion from the other reactant. \*If all the ions in a reaction are shown to be soluble, then no precipitation reaction occurs. - **THE SOLUBILITY PRODUCT CONSTANT, Ksp** -The solubility product constant, Kₛₚ, is an equilibrium constant that reflects the extent to which an ionic compound dissolves in water. -For compounds that dissolve to produce the same number of ions, we can directly compare their Kₛₚ values to determine their relative solubilities. - **QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS** EXAMPLES: \*We find that the chlorides of Pb²+, Ag+, Hg2²+ are insoluble in water, so we put them in one group and say that "The group reagent is cold dilute HCl" \*Also we find that the sulfides of Pb²+, Hg²+, Bi³+,Cu²+, Cd²+are insoluble in water, so we put them in one group and say that "The group reagent is H2S" - **IONIC SUBSTANCE** -Every ionic substance is made from a cation and an anion. -Certain ions easily dissolve, others tend to be insoluble. They all follow certain rules. -We can use these rules in order to predict what ions are present in an 'unknown' solution - like the presence of a cation. - **CATIONS** -positive charge ions -positive part of the salt -cannot be tested directly as anions -classified according to the solubility of their salt in H2O - **2 PRINCIPLES IN QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS OF CATIONS** 1. **SEPARATIONS**- separate groups of ions from other groups, or individual ions in a mixture of ions 2. **CONFIRMATORY TEST**-determine conclusively that a certain ion is present -interfering ions are removed after the test - **CLASSIFICATIONS OF CATIONS** +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | GROUP | GROUP REAGENT | IONS | DISTINGUISHING | | | | | FEATURES | +=================+=================+=================+=================+ | I | | | Ppt as | | | | | chlorides | | (SILVER GROUP) | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | II | | | Ppt as sulfide | | | | | in acid medium | | (ACID SULFIDE | | | | | GROUP) COPPER | | | | | GROUP | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | III-A | | | Pptd as | | | | | hydroxides | | (IRON-ALUMINUM | | | | | GROUP) | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | III-B | | | Ppt as sulfide | | | | | in alkaline | | (ALKALINE | | | medium | | SULFIDE GROUP) | | | | | ZINC GROUP | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | IV | | | Pptd as | | | | | carbonates | | (ALKALINE EARTH | | | | | GROUP) | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ | V | No group | | Ions not pptd | | | reagent | | in previous | | (ALKALI METAL | | | group | | GROUP) | | | | +-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+-----------------+ - **QUALITATIVE SEPARATIONS OF CATIONS** -Cations are classified into groups -Each group has common reagent ; can be used to separate them from the sol'n -Separation must be done in a certain sequence since some ions of an earlier group may also react with the reagent of a later group causing ambiguity as to which ions are present -Salts have varying solubilities in water -Differences in solubilities of these salts can be exploited in such a way as to allow for separation of the cations -consists selectively ppting only a few kinds of metal ions at a time under given sets of conditions -Consecutive precipitation steps become progressively less selective until almost all of the metal ions are precipitated. - **QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS OF GROUP-I CATIONS(Ag, Pb2+, Hg )** -have low solubility so they are pptd as Cl and called "HCl Group) **GROUP REAGENT:** cold dilute HCl slight excess with stirring  A blue background with yellow text and white text AI-generated content may be incorrect.  - **THE LAW OF COMMON-ION EFFECT** "The ionization of a weak electrolyte is suppressed if a strong electrolyte with a common ion is added to it" -The effect of increasing the concentration of one ion in a sol'n of a weak electrolyte decreases another ion of the equilibrium mixture **RESIDUE**: AgCl(White ppt)  - **CONFIRMATORY TESTS OF GROUP I- CATIONS** A screenshot of a diagram AI-generated content may be incorrect.
