Aqueous Reactions
Key Concepts of Chapter • Components of a solution. • Electrolytes, Weak Electrolytes, Nonelectrolytes • Precipitation Reactions and Solubility Guidelines • Molecular, Complete Ionic, Net Ionic Equations • A Few Concepts Related to Acids and Bases • Redox Reactions and Determining Oxidation Numbers • Activity Series of Metals • Molarity / Solution Preparation / Dilution
Properties of water • High melting and boiling point. • Expands upon freezing. • Dissolves a variety of substances easily. • Pure water is rare in nature. • These properties are mainly due to polarity, which will be discussed a bit later.
Most solids—molecules are tightly packed, and therefore they contract upon freezing. Ice—molecules take on an open hexagonal arrangement, and therefore it expands upon freezing. (More about this in Chapter 11)
Reactions in aqueous solutions • Aqueous solution: • Solution in which water is the solvent (dissolving agent). • 3 major types of chemical processes of aqueous solutions: • Precipitation reactions • Acid-base reactions • Redox reactions
Solution: • Homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances. • Solvent: • Dissolving medium, usually present in greater quantity. • Solute: • The other substance(s) in the solution.
Electrolytic Properties • Electrolyte: • A substance whose aqueous solution forms ions; conducts electricity. • Ionic compounds. • Nonelectrolyte: • Substance that does not form ions in an aqueous solution; poor conductor. • Molecular compounds.
Ionic compounds in water: • Dissociate into its component ions.
Unequal sharing of electrons leads to partial positive and negative charges in a water molecule. These charges attract the ions which causes dissociation of the ionic compound in water.
Do not get to wrapped up in the difference between the terms ionization and dissociation. Consider them to mean the same thing, the separation of a substances ions. Equations showing ionization or dissociation
Molecular compounds in H2O • Molecular compounds – nonmetal + nonmetal • Structural integrity of molecule is usually maintained meaning no ions form (C12H22O11) • Exception: • Some molecular solutes interact with water to form ions. These would be electrolytes. • Examples: Acids HCl, H2C3O2 Ammonia NH3
Strong Electrolytes • Exists in solution completely or almost completely as ions. • All ionic compounds and a few molecular compounds.(Ex: Strong Acids)
Weak Electrolytes • Molecular compounds that produce a small concentration of ions when dissolved in H2O. Ex: Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) only slightly ionizes when dissolved in water. HC2H3O2(aq)H+(aq)+ C2H3O2-(aq) Weak acids are better conductors if they are dilute, as you will see in lab. Explain.
Precipitation Reactions • Reactions that result in an insoluble product. • Insoluble: • Substance with solubility less than 0.01 mol/L • Water molecules cannot overcome the attraction between the ions.

You must be able to determine whether a substance is soluble in water by simple examination of the chemical formula. To do so, you must memorize how specific polyatomic ions act in water. Not as hard as it sounds. We will focus mainly on 10 anions. This will give you the tools to predict the solubility of many compounds.
Solubility of Ionic Compounds • All acetates and nitrates are soluble in water. • All ionic compounds of alkali metals and ammonium are soluble. • Table on next slide is on page 118 of your textbook.
Soluble Exceptions Ag+, Hg22+, Pb2+ None Ag+, Hg22+, Pb2+ Ag+, Hg22+, Pb2+ None Sr2+, Ba2+, Hg22+, Pb2+ Cl- Acetate ion C2H3O2- Br- I- NO3- SO42-
Insoluble Exceptions NH4+ and Group 1 metals Group 1 metals and Ba2+, Sr2+, Ca2+ NH4+ and Group 1 metals NH4+ and Group 1 metals and Ba2+, Sr2+, Ca2+ CO32- OH- PO43- S2-
Equation Types • Molecular • Complete Ionic • Net ionic equation 3
Ionic Equations • Those ions that appear on both sides of a complete ionic equation are known as Spectator Ions. • Net ionic equations do not include spectator ions.
Exchange Reactions • Metathesis reactions • Double displacement • Double replacement
Writing Net Ionic Equations • Write a balanced molecular equation. • Rewrite the equation showing ions of strong electrolytes only. • Identify and cancel all spectator ions.
Acid-Base Reactions All this acid rain is killing my complexion! Acids: • Ionize in H2O, causes increase in H+ ions. • H+ ions are bare protons. • Acids are proton donors.
Monoprotic Acids: (HCl, HNO3) • Acids that can only yield one H+ per molecule upon ionization. HCl H+ + Cl-
Diprotic Acids: (H2SO4) • Ionization occurs in 2 steps. • Only the first ionization is complete.
Is HF a weak or strong acid? weak acid Although it is a weak acid, this acid is extremely reactive because of the F- ion. Must be kept in special polypropylene container because it eats through glass. Used to etch glass. Has caused major accidents in lab.
Bases • Substances that increase the OH- when added to water. (NaOH) • NH3 is a base. In water it accepts an H+ ion from HOH, leaving an OH- in solution. • NH3 is a weak electrolyte • About 1% ionizes to form NH4+/OH-
Strong acids and bases • Acids and bases that ionize completely in solution are strong acids and bases. • Those that only ionize partially are weak acids and bases. • You must memorize these.
Strong Acids Hydrochloric Acid – Hydrobromic Acid – Hydroiodic Acid – Nitric Acid – Sulfuric Acid – Chloric Acid – Perchloric Acid – HCl HBr HI HNO3 H2SO4 HClO3 HClO4
Strong Bases All group 1 Metal Hydroxides (LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH) Heavy Group 2 Metal Hydroxides Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ba(OH)2
Once you memorize the strong acids and bases, you will have enough information to determine if a substance is a strong or weak electrolyte.

Acid + Base Neutralization • Products of a neutralization reaction have none of the properties of an acid or a base. • An acid reacts with a metal hydroxide to form a salt plus water.
