  1. Types of Chemical Reactionsand Solution Stoichiometry

  2. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures Classification of Matter

  3. Solute A solute is the dissolved substance in a solution. Salt in salt water Sugar in soda drinks Carbon dioxide in soda drinks Solvent A solvent is the dissolving medium in a solution. Water in salt water Water in soda

  4. Saturation of Solutions • A solution that contains the maximum amount of solute that may be dissolved under existing conditions is saturated. • A solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under existing conditions is unsaturated. • A solution that contains more dissolved solute than a saturated solution under the same conditions is supersaturated. • Solubility is defined as the

  5. Electrolytes vs. Nonelectrolytes The ammeter measures the flow of electrons (current) through the circuit. • If the ammeter measures a current, and the bulb glows, then the solution conducts. • If the ammeter fails to measure a current, and the bulb does not glow, the solution is non-conducting.

  6. Definition of Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes An electrolyte is: • A substance whose aqueous solution conducts • an electric current. A nonelectrolyte is: • A substance whose aqueous solution does not • conduct an electric current. Try to classify the following substances as electrolytes or nonelectrolytes…

  7. Electrolytes? • Pure water • Tap water • Sugar solution • Sodium chloride solution • Hydrochloric acid solution • Lactic acid solution • Ethyl alcohol solution • Pure, solid sodium chloride

  8. Answers… ELECTROLYTES: NONELECTROLYTES: • Tap water (weak) • NaCl solution • HCl solution • Lactate solution (weak) • Pure water • Sugar solution • Ethanol solution • Pure, solid NaCl But why do some compounds conduct electricity in solution while others do not…?

  9. Ionic CompoundsDissociate NaCl(s)  Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) AgNO3(s)  Ag+(aq) + NO3-(aq) MgCl2(s)  Mg2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) Na2SO4(s)  2 Na+(aq) + SO42-(aq) AlCl3(s)  Al3+(aq) + 3 Cl-(aq)

  10. Ions tend to stay in solution where they canconduct a current rather than re-forming a solid. The reason for this is the polar nature of the water molecule… Positive ions associate with the negative end of the water dipole (oxygen). Negative ions associate with the positive end of the water dipole (hydrogen).

  11. Some covalent compounds IONIZE in solution Covalent acids form ions in solution, with the help of the water molecules. For instance, hydrogen chloride molecules, which are polar, give up their hydrogens to water, forming chloride ions (Cl-) and hydronium ions (H3O+).

  12. Strong acids such as HCl are completelyionized in solution. Other examples of strong acids include: • Sulfuric acid, H2SO4 • Nitric acid, HNO3 • Hydriodic acid, HI • Perchloric acid, HClO4 • Hydrobromic acid, HBr • Hydrochloric, HCl

  13. Weak acids such as lactic acid usually ionize less than 5% of the time. Many of these weaker acids are “organic” acids that contain a “carboxyl” group. The carboxyl group does not easily give up its hydrogen.

  14. Because of the carboxyl group, organic acids aresometimes called “carboxylic acids”. Other organic acids and their sources include: • Citric acid – citrus fruit • Malic acid – apples • Butyric acid – rancid butter • Amino acids – protein • Nucleic acids – DNA and RNA • Ascorbic acid – Vitamin C • Acetic acid - vinegar This is an enormous group of compounds; these are only a few examples.

  15. However, most covalent compounds do not ionizeat all in solution. Sugar (sucrose – C12H22O11), and ethanol (ethyl alcohol – C2H5OH) do not ionize - That is why they are nonelectrolytes!

  16. Question #1 • 1. Calcium chloride is a strong electrolyte and is used to “salt” streets in the winter to melt ice and snow. Write a reaction to show how this substance breaks apart when it disssolves in water. • CaCL2 (s) Ca2+ (aq) + 2Cl- (aq)
