Chapter #7 Reactions in Aqueous Media
Aqueous Ionic Compounds Most ionic compounds dissolve in water to produce solutions that conduct electricity. The degree to which a solution will conduct electricity is used to determine if a solute is a strong or weak electrolyte. Solutions that do not conduct electricity are called nonelectrolytes. Molecular compounds that dissolve in water to that conduct electricity, are acids. Strong acids are referred to as strong electrolytes since there ae solutions are good conductors of electricity. Weak acid solutions do not conduct electricity well and are called weak electrolytes

The Solution Process Earlier in the quarter we defined a solution as a homogeneous mixture; a random combination of two or more things. The part of the solution we have the most of is the solvent and the minor components of a solution are referred to as the solutes. Water is the most common solvent and a good one for ionic solutes. Half of a water molecule is slightly positive and the other half is slightly negative and because of this is called polar. When forming a solution between an ionic compound and water, the positive region of the water attracts to an anion in the solute crystal while the negative region of another water molecule attracts to the cation in the crystal lattice
Types of Aqueous Solutions Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of a solute and a solvent. • The solute is the solution component in the smallest amount while the solvent is the larger component of a solution. • Solutes whose solutions conduct electricity are called electrolytes • Solutes whose solutions do not conduct electricity are called nonelectrolytes • Electrolytes are solutes that form ions when they dissolve. Ionic solutes or acids usually form solutions that conduct electricity.
Solution Formation Water is one of the best solvents known. It is able to dissolve ionic solutes, such as sodium chloride, to produce solutions that conduct electricity. Molecules, containing a positive and negative regions, are called polar. Water is an example of a polar molecule and can dissolve ionic solutes by the positive region of water attracting to the negative ion of an ionic solute thus separating the crystal lattice in to a solution of solvated ions.
H2O K+ The Solvation Process If the attractive forcebetween the surface ion and the solvent is greater than the forces between the ion and the solid then the ion will enter the solution phase. - The ion that has left the solid and becomes completedsurrounded by water molecules. It has become solvated or hydrated. - - + - + + + - + - + + +
Solvated Ions The process continues as new water moleculesapproach the crystal until the crystal has been fully dissolved. - - Note the different orientation of water molecules around the oppositely charged ions. + - + + - - + + +

It is called a precipitate.
Ionic Equations It is possible for all of the reactants and products to be water soluble and thus produce all spectator ions. If this is the case then all of the ions cancel out and there is no net ionic equation. When this occurs we say that there is No Reaction, and give the label NR. This makes sense, since in order for reactions to go to completion a solid, water, gas, or electron transfer must occur in order for a reaction to go to completion.

Water Formation Formation of water is a normal product between acids and bases. Since acids and bases dissolve in water to make solutions that are electrolytes, then we conclude that acids and bases have some ionic character. Since water does not ionize, then when water is formed, we will also have a net ionic equation and then a chemical reaction.

Acid-Base Reactions Bases undergo a double replacementreaction with acids called neutralization: NaOH (aq) + HCl (aq) H2O (l) + NaC l (aq) In words this well known reaction is often described as: “acid plus base = salt plus water” We previously discussed this reaction when describing types of reactions.
Acid-Base Reactions We have discussed the double replacementreactions and ionic equations before. Since the acids and bases undergo double replacement reactions called neutralizationreactions, then they can have ionic equations too. Formula equation: HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H2O (l) Total ionic equation: H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) + Na+ (aq) + OH- (aq) Na+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) + H2O (l) Net ionic equation: H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) H2O (l)
Acid-Base Reactions Another property of acids is theirreactionwith certain metalsto produce hydrogen gas, H2 (g). Zn (s) + 2HC l (aq) H2 (g) + ZnCl2 (aq) This is an example of a single replacementreaction and is aredox reaction. Total ionic equation: Zn (s) + 2H+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) H2 (g) + Zn2+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq) Net ionic equation: Zn (s) + 2H+ (aq) H2 (g) + Zn2+ (aq)

Electron Transfer Electron transfer reactions (REDOX) were discussed in the previous chapter Power Point Presentation about types of chemical reactions. All types of reactions, combination, decomposition, single replacement and combustion were discussed and were noted as electron transfer reactions thus giving chemical change. Double replacement reactions are not electron transfer reactions, and typically do not produce products unless solids, water, or weak electrolytes are formed.
