The The dissolvingdissolving process process When a solid is put into a liquid, solute-solute attractions
compete with solute-solvent & solvent-solvent attractions
3
SolubilitySolubility
Let’s assume our solvent is water . . . If solute-water attractions > solute-solute &
water-water attractions, solute particles are pulled out one by one into the water:
The solute is SOLUBLE in water
4
SolubilitySolubility
But if solute-water attractions < solute-solute & water-water attractions, solute particles remain together:
The solute is INSOLUBLE in water
5
Solution conductivitySolution conductivity
Solution conductivity depends on type of solute particles

Solution conductivitySolution conductivity
Ionic solutes (salts) made of cations & anions Ions DISSOCIATE (separate) during
dissolving Molecular solutes made of
molecules each solute particle that moves into
solution is identical
7
Solution conductivitySolution conductivity
Solutions of ionic solutes contain independent mobile ions Solution conducts electricity Solute is an ELECTROLYTE Solute also conducts when melted,
but not when solid (ions can’t move)
8
Solution conductivitySolution conductivity
Solutions of most molecular solutes contain independent neutral molecules Solution does not conduct
electricity Solute is a NONELECTROLYTE Solute also does not conduct when
melted or solid

Some molecular compounds (acids & bases) react with water to produce ions, as if they dissociated A few acids & bases do this very well, producing lots
of ions = strong electrolytes, strong acids & bases Most acids & bases do this weakly, producing a few
ions = weak electrolytes, weak acids & bases

Predicting Precipitation ReactionsPredicting Precipitation Reactions
To predict whether a precipitate will form, you need to know which compounds are soluble (no ppt) and which are insoluble (ppt forms)
Memorize the guidelines in Table 4.1 on page 154 in your text! Add this guideline: CrO4
2– acts like SO42–
16
Solubility guidelines: solubleSolubility guidelines: soluble
Compounds of these ions are generally soluble and do NOT form precipitates: Alkali metals (group 1A, except Li1+) Ammonium (NH4
1+)
Nitrates (NO31–) and acetates (C2H3O2
1–)
Chlorides, bromides, iodides, except Pb2+, Ag1+, Hg22+
Sulfates (SO42–) & chromates (CrO4
2–), except Sr2+, Ba2+, Pb2+, and Hg2
2+
17
Solubility guidelines: insolubleSolubility guidelines: insoluble
Compounds of these ions are generally insoluble and DO form precipitates: Hydroxides (OH1–) and Sufides (S2–)
Alkali metals (group 1A) and ammonium (NH41+) are soluble
Sulfides of group 2A metals are generally soluble Hydroxides of Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ are soluble
Carbonates (CO32–) and phosphates (PO4
3–)

Net ionic equationsNet ionic equations
AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq)
AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) AgCl + NaNO3
AgNO3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
The (aq) substances are dissociated:
Ag1+ (aq) + NO31– (aq) + Na1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq)
AgCl (s) + Na1+ (aq) + NO31– (aq)
19
Net ionic equationsNet ionic equations
Na1+ and NO31– are spectator ions
Ag1+ (aq) + NO31– (aq) + Na1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq)
AgCl (s) + Na1+ (aq) + NO31– (aq)
The net ionic equation omits spectators:Ag1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq) AgCl (s)
20
Is that really a spectator?Is that really a spectator?
An ion is a spectator if and only if it is in exactly the same form in the products and reactants:Na2CO3 (aq) + BaCl2 (aq) BaCO3 (s) + 2 NaCl (aq)
CO32– (aq) + Ba2+ (aq) BaCO3 (s)
Na2CO3 (s) + 2 HCl (aq) 2 NaCl (aq) + H2O + CO2 (g)
Na2CO3 (s) + 2 H1+ (aq) 2 Na1+ (aq) + H2O + CO2 (g)
Only Cl1– is a spectator
Na1+ is not a spectator because it was (s), then (aq)
21
ExamplesExamples
Indicate whether a ppt forms and if so, complete the reaction as a balanced net ionic equation: AlCl3 (aq) + KOH (aq)
K2SO4 (aq) + FeBr3 (aq)
CaI2 (aq) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq)
Na3PO4 (aq) + AlCl3 (aq)
Al2(SO4)3 (aq) + BaCl2 (aq)
(NH4)2CO3 (aq) + Pb(NO3)2 (aq)
22
AcidsAcids
Acids produce H3O1+ in aqueous solution: Strong acids are molecular compounds that react
completely with water to produce H3O1+:
HCl (g) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq)
For convenience, we often show acids as simply dissociating to produce H1+:
HCl (g) H1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq) There are only 6 strong acids (memorize them, pg 161)
23
AcidsAcids
Acids produce H3O1+ in aqueous solution: Weak acids are molecular compounds that react
incompletely with water:
HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + C2H3O21– (aq)
HC2H3O2 (aq) H1+ (aq) + C2H3O21– (aq)
All acids that are not strong are weak
24
AcidsAcids
H1+ is a proton The reaction with water is proton transfer:
HCl (g) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq)
HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + C2H3O21– (aq)
Acids with one H1+ to transfer are monoprotic acids
HCl HNO3 HC2H3O2
Acids with more than one H1+ to transfer are polyprotic acids H2SO4 H3PO4 H2C3H2O4
25
AcidsAcids
Polyprotic acids produce H3O1+ in steps:
H2SO4 (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + HSO41– (aq)
HSO41– (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + SO4
2– (aq)
For H2SO4 the first step is strong and the second weak
H2C2O4 (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + HC2O41– (aq)
HC2O41– (aq) + H2O H3O1+ (aq) + C2O4
2– (aq)
For all other polyprotic acids, the first step is weak and the second step is weaker
26
BasesBases
Bases produce OH1– in aqueous solution: Strong bases are ionic hydroxide compounds that are
completely dissociated in water:NaOH (s) Na1+ (aq) + OH1– (aq)
The strong bases are the hydroxides of group 1A and 2A metals (memorize them)
Weak bases are molecular compounds that react incompletely with water to produce OH1–:
NH3 (aq) + H2O (l) NH41+ (aq) + OH1– (aq)
Amines (–NH2 ) are weak bases
27
NeutralizationNeutralization
Acids and bases neutralize each other The H1+ from the acid is transferred to the base:
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) HOH (l) + NaCl (aq) H1+ (aq) + OH1– (aq) HOH (l)
The base is not always an OH1– compound: HCl (aq) + NH3 (aq) NH4
1+ (aq) + Cl1– (aq) H1+ (aq) + NH3 (aq) NH4
1+ (aq)
28
Neutralization and net ionic equationsNeutralization and net ionic equations
It is important to recognize strong acids and bases when writing net ionic equations HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) H2O (l) + NaCl (aq)
H1+ (aq) + OH1– (aq) H2O (l)
HC2H3O2 (aq) + NaOH (aq) H2O (l) + NaC2H3O2 (aq)
HC2H3O2 (aq) + OH1– (aq) H2O (l) + C2H3O21– (aq)
The weak acid is not significantly ionized,so acetate is not a spectator (even if it is aq)
29
ExamplesExamples
Write the molecular and net ionic equations for HNO3 + NaOH
HF + KOH HC2H3O2 + NH3
H2SO4 + Ba(OH)2
H2C2O4 + NaOH
HCHO2 + Ca(OH)2

Gas forming reactionsGas forming reactions
Some neutralizations produce a gas: CO3
2– + 2 H1+ H2CO3
H2CO3 is unstable and decomposes immediately
H2CO3 CO2 (g) + H2O
The overall reaction is CO3
2– + 2 H1+ CO2 (g) + H2O
31
Gas forming reactionsGas forming reactions
Memorize these gas-formers (pg 166): SO3
2– + 2 H1+ SO2 (g) + H2O
HSO31– + H1+ SO2 (g) + H2O
CO3
2– + 2 H1+ CO2 (g) + H2O
HCO31– + H1+ CO2 (g) + H2O
S2– + 2 H1+ H2S (g)

RedoxRedox
Redox (oxidation-reduction) reactions are those in which electrons are transferred The loss of electrons is oxidation The gain of electrons is reduction
LEO says GER
33
Oxidation statesOxidation states
The oxidation state (O.S.) or oxidation number is a convenient but artificial way to describe the electron environment around an atom
It is related to the number of electrons gained, lost, or apparently used in forming compounds
Oxidation states are assigned using the rules on page 169 of your text (memorize these in order)
34
Assigning oxidation statesAssigning oxidation states
1. The O.S. of each atom in an element is zero
2. The O.S. of a monoatomic ion is equal to its charge
3. The total of the O.S. of all atoms in any species (formula unit, molecule or ion) equals the charge on that species
4. In compounds, metals always have a positive O.S.• Group 1A metals are always O.S. +1 and Group 2A metals are always O.S. +2
5. For nonmetals in compounds,• the O.S. of fluorine is –1.
• the O.S. of hydrogen is +1.
• the O.S. of oxygen is –2.
6. In binary compounds, the O.S. of a Group 7A element is –1, Group 6A element –2, and Group 5A element –3.
35
ExamplesExamples
What is the oxidation state of each element in S8 Cr2O7
2– Cl2O KO2
What is the oxidation state of each element in S2O3
2– Hg2Cl2 KMnO4 H2CO
36
RedoxRedox
In a redox reaction, atoms change (O.S.) The element oxidized loses electrons and its O.S.
becomes more positive The element reduced gains electrons and its O.S.
becomes more negative
37
ExamplesExamples
Which of these reactions is a redox reaction? Identify the species oxidized and reduced.HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) H2O + NaCl (aq)
2 Pb(NO3)2 (s) 2 PbO (s) + 4 NO2 (g) + O2 (g)
NH4Cl (s) + NaOH (aq) NH3 (g) + H2O + NaCl (aq)
Identify the species oxidized and reduced:5 VO2+ (aq) + MnO4
1– (aq) + H2O 5 VO2
1+ (aq) + Mn2+ (aq) + 2 H1+ (aq)
38
Agents of Oxidation and ReductionAgents of Oxidation and Reduction
An agent makes something happen An oxidizing agent makes oxidation happen by being
reduced A reducing agent makes reduction happen by being
oxidized The “agent” is the entire species in which the oxidized
or reduced atom appears
39
ExamplesExamples
Identify the elements oxidized & reduced and the oxidizing & reducing agents in 2 NO2 (g) + 7 H2 (g) 2 NH3 (g) + 4 H2O (g)
