Chapter 7 (review for exam #2)
New compounds
-Potentially insoluble ones- are now possible specifically, that cation from one compound can now pair with the anion from the other compound to form new and potentially insoluble products
Describe the differences between a complete ionic and net ionic equation
A complete ionic equation shows the reactants and products as they are actually present in solution. The net ionic equation shows the species that actually change during the reaction. Spectator ions are shown in the complete ionic equation but are not shown in the net ionic equation
Decomposition reaction
A complex substance decomposes to form simpler substances
Redox equations are those in which
A substance reacts with elemental oxygen, a metal reacts with a nonmetal, more generally one substance transfers electrons to another substance
Combustion reacts
A substance reacts with oxygen, emitting heat and forming one or more oxygen containing compounds
Oxidation reduction reactions
A type of combustion reaction, in which electrons are transferred from one substance to another
Many evolution reactions are also
Acid base reactions
Two other equations that occur in solution are
Acid base reactions and gas evolution reactions
What are the properties of acids and bases?
An acid is a compound characterized by its sour fast its ability to dissolve some metals, and it's tendency to form H+ ions is solution. A base is a compound characterized by its bitter taste, it's slippery feel and its tendency to form OH- ions in solution
Molecular equation
An equation showing the complete neutral formulas for every compound in the reaction
Aq
Aqueous (water solution)
Combustion reactions
Are a type of redox reaction. They are important because most of our societies energy is derived from combustion reactions. Combustion reactions are characterized by the reaction of a substance with O2 to form one or more oxygen containing compounds, often including water combustion reactions are exothermic
What is an acid base reaction
Are reactions that form water upon mixing of an acid and a base
If you could see atoms and molecules what would you look for as conclusive evidence of a chemical reactions
Atoms combining with other atoms to form compounds and original molecules decomposing
Evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred
Color change, formation of a solid or gas, heat absorption or emission, and light emission
What are the main evidences of chemical reaction
Color change, the formation of a solid, the formation of a gas, the emission of light, and the emission or absorption of heat
What is a combustion reaction
Combustion reactions create CO2 and H2O and always react with an oxygen. They are a type of redox equation
Describe the differences between a molecular equation and a complete ionic equation
Complete ionic equation shows how they are actually present in the solution, where as an molecular equation shows the complete neutral formulas for every compound in the reaction
Solubility rules
Compounds containing Li+, Na+, K+, NH4+, NO3-, C2H3O2- Are mostly soluble with no exceptions Cl-, Br-, I-, are mostly soluble except when any these ions pair with Ag+, Hg2 2+, or Pb2+, the compound is insoluble. SO4 2-, is soluble except when paired with Sr 2+, Ba2+, Pb2+, or Ca2+, the compound is insoluble. OH-, S2-, are mostly insoluble except when either of these ions pairs with Li+, Na+, K+, or NH4+, than the compound is soluble. CO3 2-, PO4 3-, are mostly insoluble except when either of these ions pairs with Li+, Na+, K+, or NH4+, the compound is soluble
A compound is insoluble if it
Doesn't dissolve in the liquid
Net ionic equation
Equations which only show the species that actually participate in the reaction
G
Gas
Acid base reactions (also called neutralization reactions)
Generally form water and an ionic compound called salt that usually remains dissolved in the solution
A compound is Soluble in a particular liquid
If it dissolves in that liquid
Spectator ions
In a complete ionic equation, some of the ions in the solution appear unchanged on both sides of the equation. They don't participate in the reaction
How do ionic compounds dissolve in water
Ionic compounds when dissolved in water usually dissociate into their component ions
What is a redox equation
Is a reaction involving the transfer of electrons
What is a chemical reaction?
Is the change of one or more substances into different substances
Fundamental definition of oxidation
Is the loss of electrons, and a fundamental definition of reduction is the gain of elections
L
Liquid
Oxidation and reduction must
Occur together
Displacement reactions
One element displaces another in a compound
Key to predicting precipitate reactions
Only insoluble compounds form precipitates. Two solutions containing soluble compound precipitates
Oxidation reduction reactions
Or redox equations are reactions involving the transfer of electrons Many redox reactions involve the reaction of a substance with oxygen. However redox equations need not involve oxygen.
The substances on the right side are called the
Products
Gas evolution reactions
Reactions that evolve a gas. Like precipitate reactions, these reactions occur when the cation Of one reactant combines with the anion of another
Precipitation reactions
Reactions that form a solid or precipitate upon mixing two aqueous solutions they are the most common reactions in chemistry
Acid base reactions
Reactions that form water upon mixing of an acid and a base
Gas evolution reactions
Reactions that occur in liquids and form gas
Complete ionic equation
Shows the reactants and products as they are actually present in the solution
Synthesis or combination reactions
Simpler substances combine to form more complex substances
S
Solid
Strong electrolytes
Substances that completely dissociate into ions in solution
What is a strong electrolyte solution
Substances that completely dissociate into ions in solution are called electrolytes
Many chemical reactions can be classified into the following 4 categories:
Synthesis or combination reactions, decomposition reactions, displacement reactions, double displacement reactions
Aqueous solution
The most common reactions, they are a homogeneous mixture of a substance with water.
Will the precipitate in a precipitate reaction always be a compound that is soluble or insoluble?
The precipitate will always be insoluble, it is the solid that forms upon mixing two aqueous solutions
The substances on the left side of the equation are
The reactants
Strong electrolyte solution
The resultant solutions
Precipitation reaction
They form solid substances in water
Decomposition reactions (extra)
They require energy in the form of heat, electrical current, or light to make them happen. This is because compounds are normally stable and energy is required to decompose them.
Double displacement reactions
Two elements or groups of elements in two different compounds exchange places to form two new compounds
How do Polyatomic ions within ionic compounds dissolve water
When ionic compounds containing Polyatomic ions dissolve in water, the Polyatomic ions usually dissolve as intact units
