  1. Ionic Chemical Reactions Lecture 12 (Ch. 10) 10/1/12 HW: 1, 9, 35, 39, 41, 45, 51, 61

  2. Introduction • To date, we have learned about: • Chemical elements and their classifications • Valence electron configurations and their effect on chemical properties and reactivity • Chemical bonding • Molecular geometries • Now, we will begin to learn about chemical reactions involving ionic compounds

  3. Ionic Compounds (recap) Na+ Electrostatic interactions between NaCl molecules holds them together in a lattice, which is why all ionic compounds are solid at room temperature. Cl-

  4. Dissociation of Ionic Compounds in Water NaCl (s) NaCl(aq) H2O (L) • An ionic compound fully dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution • The compound will split into cations and anions. water NaCl (s) NaCl (aq) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) =

  5. Polyatomic Ions • Polyatomic ions are covalent molecules with an overall charge. These molecules behave as normal ions. • Polyatomic ions do NOT break apart in water • Ex. Al(PO4) (s) Al3+ (aq) + PO43-(aq) H2O (L) Aluminum Phosphate Aluminum cation Phosphate anion

  6. You DEFINITELY want to know these (Polyatomic Ions) 2- 1- 3- 1+

  7. Types of Reactions • Chemical reactions involving ionic compounds can be classified as one of the following: • combination reactions • decomposition reactions • single replacement reactions • double replacement reactions

  8. Combination Reactions • In a combination reaction, multiple reactants combine to form a single product • The reaction may occur between two elements • Or between an element and a compound • Or between two compounds

  9. Combination Reaction (E+E) 3Li(s) + P(g) Li3P(s) (E+C) 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2NaCl(s) (C+C) SO3(g) + H2O(l) H2SO4(aq)

  10. Examples • Predict the products of the following combination reactions. Also, predict the phase of each reactant and product. • Hints: You will form ionic compounds. Also, pay attention to possible polyatomic ions. • Li (s) + ½O2 (g) MgO (s) + CO2 (g) 2 Li2O (s) Lithium oxide MgCO3 (s) Magnesium Carbonate

  11. Decomposition Reaction In a decomposition reaction, • one substance splits into two or more simpler substances 2HgO(s) 2Hg(l) + O2(g) 2KClO3(s) 2KCl(s) + 3O2(g)

  12. Single Replacement Reaction In a single replacement reaction, • An element reacts with a salt, and two elements switch places. When one metal replaces another in an ionic compound, this is also called a transmetallation reaction. Zn(s) + 2AgCl (aq) ZnCl2(aq)+ 2Ag(s) Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s)

  13. Transmetallations • Transmetallations occur because one metal is more active (less stable) than the other. • In the reaction below, Zn displaces Ag because Zn is more active : Zn(s) + 2AgCl (aq) ZnCl2(aq)+ 2Ag(s) • A metal of greater activity will displace a less active metal. The opposite will NOT occur. An activity series is provided on pg. 325 of the text.

  14. Group Examples Activity Series Predict the products. Include phase. Balance if necessary. Li (s) + Ca(ClO4)2 (aq) Na (s) + ZnSO4(aq) K (s) + LiCl (aq)

  15. Single Replacement Reactions involving Metals and Strong Acids • The acids above are known as the strong acids. They are referred to as “strong” because they fully dissociation in water. KNOW THESE. • When a metal reacts with a strong acid, the metal replaces the hydrogen atom to yield an ionic compound and hydrogen gas. STRONG ACIDS Zn(s) + 2HCl (aq) ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)

  16. Zn and HCl Combine in a Single Replacement Reaction

  17. Single Replacement Reactions Don’t Just Involve Metals • A more reactive nonmetal can also replace a less reactive one, as shown below. F2(g) + 2KCl --> 2KF (s) + Cl2 (g) • The general rule of thumb with nonmentals is: reactivity increases up a group. • F > Cl > Br > I

  18. Double Replacement Reaction In a double replacementresult, • two salts react, and the anions exchange places AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq)AgCl(s)+ NaNO3(aq) ZnS(s) + 2HCl(aq) ZnCl2(aq) + H2S(g)

  19. Example • Balance the following double replacement reactions A. CaBr2 (aq) + K2CO3(aq) B. NH4Cl (aq) + MgSO4 (aq)

  20. Review Classify each of the following reactions as: Combination, decomposition, single replacement, or double replacement A. 2Al(s) + 3H2SO4(aq) Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 3H2(g) B. Na2SO4(aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) Ag2SO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) C. 2NaClO3(s) 2NaCl(s) + 3O2(g) D. 3Mg(s) + N2(g) Mg3N2 (s)

  21. Most Double Replacement Reactions are Precipitation Reactions • An easy way to identify a chemical reaction is if there is a change in phase. • In a Precipitation Reaction, an insoluble ionic product is formed. • In the figure to the left, Na2S (aq) and Cd(NO3)2 (aq) undergo double replacement to form CdSand NaNO3 . • CdS is insoluble (does not dissociate). The result is the formation of a solid product.

  22. Solubility Rules • All group 1 and ammonium salts are soluble! • All nitrates, acetates, and perchlorates are soluble • Ag, Pb, and Hg(I) salts are all insoluble (except for those mentioned in 2) • Carbonates, sulfides, oxides, and phosphates are insoluble (except group 1) • MOST hydroxides are insoluble, EXCEPT for hydroxides of Ba, Ca, and Sr (and group 1) • All sulfates are soluble EXCEPT for Ca and Ba

  23. Examples of Precipitates • Use solubility rules to predict the products of the following double replacement reactions. If there is no change of phase, say ‘no reaction’: • BaCl2 (aq) + Na2SO4(aq) • MgBr2 (aq) + K2CO3 (aq) • NaCH3COO (aq) + CaBr2 (aq)

  24. Net Ionic Equations • It is proper practice to use NET IONIC EQUATIONSwhen describing a double replacement reaction, especially one involving the formation of a precipitate • Ex. Na2S(aq) + Cd(NO3)2(aq) 2NaNO3(aq) + CdS(s) • Since we know that ionic solutions dissociate in water, we can rewrite the equation above in ionic form: 2Na+(aq) + S2-(aq) + Cd2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) CdS(s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) The ions in red undergo a chemical reaction, as indicated by the change in phase. The remaining ions are called SPECTATOR IONSbecause they are not involved in the reaction in any way.

  25. Net Ionic Equations • The spectators ions cancel out. The remaining reactants and products comprise the net ionic equation. Na+(aq) + S2-(aq) + Cd2+(aq) + NO3-(aq) CdS(s) + Na+(aq) + NO3-(aq) Cd2+(aq) + S2-(aq) CdS(s) NET IONIC EQUATION

  26. Example • Identify the spectator ions, then write the net ionic equation corresponding to the following reactions: • Na2S(aq) + 2HCl(aq) 2NaCl (aq) + H2S(g) • 2AgClO4(aq) + (NH4)2SO4 ?

  27. Part II. Introduction to Red-Ox Reactions • Single replacement reactions are examples of red-ox (reduction-oxidation) reactions • A reduction process corresponds to a process in which the oxidation state (charge) of an element/ion becomes more negative during the course of a reaction • In an oxidationprocess, the oxidation state of an element/ion becomes more positiveduring a reaction

  28. Introduction to Red-Ox Reactions • Consider the following single replacement reaction: Zn(s) + Cu SO4 (aq) Zn SO4 (aq) + Cu (s) On the reactant side, we have elemental Zn. The charge on any pure element is 0 On the product side, we have a Zn2+ ion. Since the charge of Zn has gone from 0 to 2+, Zn has undergone an oxidation. Zn loses 2 electrons. Where did they go??? On the product side, we have elemental Cu, so Cu has undergone a reduction from 2+ to 0 by taking electrons from Zn. On the reactant side, we have a Cu2+ ion.

  29. Oxidizing and Reducing Agents Zn(s) + Cu SO4 (aq) Zn SO4 (aq) + Cu (s) • We have identified the reduction and oxidation processes in the reaction above Zn0 Zn2+ + 2e- Cu2+ + 2e-  Cu0 RED-OX REACTIONS • Because Zn gets oxidized, it is the reducing agent. In other words, the oxidation of Zn causes the reduction of Cu2+ • Because Cu2+ gets reduced, it is the oxidizing agent. Zn is oxidized because Cu2+ takes electrons away from more active Zn.

  30. Zn-Cu Transmetallation Zn(s) + Cu SO4 (aq) Zn SO4 (aq) + Cu (s)

  31. Example of Red-Ox Reactions in Everyday Life: Rust Reduced 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) 2Fe2O3(s) Oxidized
