Predicting Whether a Reaction Will Occur • There are several different “driving forces” that cause chemical reactions to take place • Formation of a solid • Formation of water • Transfer of Electrons • Formation of a gas • When two chemicals come together if any of these changes can occur a chemical reaction will occur. • You can predict whether a reaction will occur and the products that will form by considering these driving forces
Reactions that form a Solid • Precipitation: the formation of a solid in a reaction • Precipitate: the solid formed by the reaction • Called a precipitation reaction
Reactions that form a Solid Reaction of yellow potassium chromate and colorless barium nitrate. K2CrO4 (aq) + Ba(NO3)2 (aq) ? How do we predict the products?
Reactions that form a Solid • We must think about what happens in an aqueous solution… • What happens when an ionic compound dissolves in water? • Ba(NO3)2, a white solid, was dissolved in water • Ba+ and NO3- are present • K2CrO4 is dissolved in water • K+ and CrO42- are present • These are called Strong Electrolytes because each unit produces separated ions
Reactions that form a Solid K2CrO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) Products Ba2+ CrO42- NO3- PRODUCTS K+ NO3- K+ K2CrO4 (aq) Ba(NO3)2(aq)
Reactions that form a Solid • We can express the reaction in the form of the ions present 2K+(aq) + CrO42-(aq) + Ba2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) Products • Thus the mixed solution contains four types of ions • How can we decide what products will form?
Reactions that form a Solid • We know that the reaction must form a solid with a net zero charge • So the product must contain cations and anions • Most ionic compounds contain only two types of ions • One type of cation and one type of anion
Reactions that form a Solid • Possibilities • So the solid could be one of these • BaCrO4 is the solid
Using Solubility Rules • Soluble: will readily dissolve in water • Insoluble: will not dissolve in water • Slightly soluble: a tiny amount will dissolve in water
Predicting Products • AgNO3(aq) + KCl (aq) white solid • Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq) + K+(aq) + Cl-(aq) • Possible ionic compounds: • AgNO3, AgCl, KNO3, KCl • Use solubility rules to determine which is the white solid • AgCl is white solid
Describing Reactions in Aqueous Solutions • Molecular Equation • K2CrO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)BaCrO4(s) + 2KNO3(aq) • Complete Ionic Equation • 2K+(aq) + CrO42-(aq) + Ba2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) BaCrO4(s) + 2K+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) • Spectator Ions • 2K+(aq) and 2NO3-(aq) • Net Ionic Equation • Ba2+(aq) + CrO42-(aq) BaCrO4(s)
Describing Reactions in Aqueous Solutions • Pb(NO3)2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) PbSO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) • Pb2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) PbSO4 (s) • NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) • Cl-(aq) + Ag+(aq) AgCl(s) • 3KOH(aq) + Fe(NO3)3(aq) Fe(OH)3 (s) + 3KNO3(aq) • Fe3+(aq) + 3OH-(aq) Fe(OH)3(s)
Reactions that Form Water • Reactions between a strong acid and a strong base • Strong acids are strong electrolytes • HCl HCl H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) • HNO3 H+(aq) + NO3-(aq) • Arreheniusacids produce H+ ions when dissolved in water
Reactions that Form Water Each HCl Molecule dissociates when it dissolves in water H H Cl Cl Cl H H+ Cl- H+ Cl- Water Cl- H+
Reactions that Form Water • Arrhenius bases produce OH- ions when dissolved in water • NaOH(s) Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) • KOH(s) K+(aq) + OH-(aq) • Strong bases are also strong electrolytes
Reactions that Form Water • When acids and bases react they form water and a salt (an ionic compound) • In solution acids form H+ and bases form OH- • H+ + OH- H2O • Net ionic equation for all acid-base rections • HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) H2O(l) + NaCl(aq)
Write the Complete and Net Ionic Equations for the following and identify each as either an acid-base or precipitation reaction • HNO3(aq) + KOH(aq) H2O(l) + KNO3(aq) • 2AgNO3(aq) + Na2CrO4(aq) Ag2CrO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq) • HBr(aq) + NaOH(aq) H2O(l) + NaBr(aq) • Ni(NO3)2(aq) + K2CO3(aq) NiCO3(s) + 2KNO3(aq)
Reactions of Metals with Nonmetals • When a metal reacts with a non-metal an ionic compound is formed. The ions formed when the metal transfers electrons to the non-metal. The metal becomes a cation and the non-metal becomes an anion • Therefore a metal-nonmetal reaction can always be assumed to be an oxidation-reduction reaction, which involves electron transfer
Reactions of Metals with Nonmetals • Ionic Compounds: compounds formed in a reaction between a metal and a non-metal • Made up of positive and negative ions • 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2NaCl(s) • Oxidation-Reduction Reactions-a reaction that involves the transfer of electrons • Na + Cl Na+ + Cl- Electron-e-
