Oxidation and Reduction • Single replacement reactions are driven by oxidation and reduction. • Oxidation is the loss of electrons • Reduction is the gain of electrons
Oxidation-Reduction • Example: • AgNO3 + Cu Cu(NO3)2 + Ag • Silver on left: +1 Silver on right: 0 • Copper on left: 0 Copper on right: +2 • Silver is reduced from +1 to 0 • Copper is known as the reducing agent • Copper is oxidized from 0 to +2 • Silver nitrate is the oxidizing agent • Single replacement reactions are also known as redox reactions as a result.
Predicting Single Replacement • So, this reaction happens: • AgNO3 + Cu Cu(NO3)2 + Ag • What about the reverse reaction? • Cu(NO3)2 + Ag AgNO3 + Cu • Hopefully logic would tell you that the reverse reaction is not spontaneous. • We would have to force it to happen using electricity. • So, how do we know which redox reactions will happen and which ones won’t?
Activity Series • This chart tells you how active a metal or halogen is, or how able it is to displace another metal or halogen in a single replacement reaction.
Activity Series • Compare the two metals or halogens involved in the reaction. • The metal or halogen that is higher on the activity series will be paired with the ion.
Activity Series • Take our previous example: • AgNO3 + Cu • Copper is higher than silver, so copper can displace silver. • AgNO3 + Cu Cu(NO3)2 + Ag • Because copper is higher than silver, the reverse reaction will not occur.
Practice • Zn + HCl
Practice • Zn + HCl ZnCl2 + H2
Practice • Au + HCl
Practice • Au + HCl no reaction
