“Free Energy”

• All spontaneous (product favored) reactions can be harnessed in some way to do work!

OR Burn fuel to create steamTo turn the turbines

How can you store“free energy?”

ELECTROCHEMISTRYELECTROCHEMISTRYUnit 4Unit 4

Study of chemical reactions that

produce electrical

currents or voltages and of

the chemical reactions that are

caused by the action of currents

or voltages.

UA GenChem

A 3.41 x 10-6 g sample of a compound is known to

contain 4.67 x 1016 molecules. This compound

is

1. CO2

2. CH4

3. NH3

4. H2O

UA GenChem

What is different in the second reaction?

Ag+ + Cl- AgCl(s)

Ag+ + Cu(s) Cu2++ Ag(s)

Cu

Ag

Ag+

The charge on Ag and Cu change. That’s anOxidation- reduction reaction (REDOX)

Cu2+

UA GenChem

Ag+ + Cu(s) Cu2+ + Ag(s)

Copper loses two electrons

Cu was OXIDIZED

Ag was REDUCED Ag+ was the OXIDIZING AGENT

Cu was the REDUCING AGENT

Charge balance vs. mass balance

2 2

Ag+ gains electrons

Identifying REDOXOXIDATION NUMBERS

1)Any element in any neutral form-- standing alone

OXIDATION NUMBER = 0

Bookkeeping method only---not real CHARGES

S8 O.N. = 0 O2, O3, O O.N. = 0

I2(s) , I2(g) , I O.N. = 02) Any Element as a single ion – standing alone OXIDATION NUMBER = Charge on the ION

S2- O.N. = -2 O2- O.N. = -2

I - Ox no = -1

Cu2+ O.N. = +2 Al3+ O.N. = +3

UA GenChem

In a neutral COMPOUND some elements often have a fixed OXIDATION NUMBER

H almost always is +1O almost always is -2F always is -1

3) In a NEUTRAL COMPOUND the SUM of all the atomic oxidation numbers is ZERO

CH4

CH3COOH

UA GenChem

4) In a COMPLEX ION the SUM of all the atomic oxidation numbers is equal to the TOTAL CHARGE on the ion.

ClO3−

MnO4−

PO33-

What is the oxidation number of P in H3PO4?

What is the oxidation number of Cr in Cr2O7

2-?

What is the oxidation number of C in (NH4)2CO3?

What is the oxidation number of C in C3H8(propane)?

UA GenChem

Another Way

C OO

Use the structure – the oxidation number of an atom is equal to

# of valence electrons − # of lone pair e- − # of bond e- IF the atom is the most

electronegative in the bond

C = 4 – 0 – 0 = +4(oxygen is more electronegative)

This method treats atoms like ions – it assumes all the bonded electrons go to the more electronegative atom in the bond

UA GenChem

Propane again…

Using the structure method, what is the oxidation number of each carbon in propane (C3H8)?

UA GenChem

What is the oxidation number of the oxygen-bonded C in

CH3COOH (acetic acid)?

UA GenChem

OXIDATION IS THE LOSS OF ELECTRONS

REDUCTION IS THE GAIN OF ELECTRONS(Oxidation Number is reduced)
