Chemistry SM-1232Week 10 Lesson 3 Dr. Jesse Reich Assistant Professor of Chemistry Massachusetts Maritime Academy Spring 2008
Class Today • No class Friday • Tests are graded • Quizes are not yet graded. I’ll have them sometime this week. • Only 1 wiki even started!!! GET ON IT! At least start the page. • Quote • Chapter 16- just two days, today and Wednesday • Quiz on the Wiki on Friday • Start Chapter 18 on Monday, Test next Wednesday
Sea Fever • I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tideIs a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-roverAnd quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.By John Masefield (1878-1967).(English Poet Laureate, 1930-1967.)
Oxidation • 2 H2 + O2 2H2O • 4 Fe(s) + 3O2 2 Fe2O3 • CH4 + O2 CO2 + H2O • Each chemical reacting with oxygen ends up with oxygen in the formula. Since they gain oxygen we call it an oxidation or an oxidizing reaction.
Reduction • 2 H2O 2H2 + O2 • 2 Fe2O3(s) 4Fe + 3O2 • CO2 + H2O CH4 + 2 O2 • The reaction produces oxygen in each case. When the reaction loses oxygen it’s called a reduction.
Oxydation does not need oxygen • 4 Na + O2 2Na2O • 2 Na + Cl2 2 NaCl • Chemists consider both to be oxidation reactions
A closer look • 4 Na + O2 2Na2O • Each Na is losing an electron • 4Na 4Na+ + 4e- • Oxygen is gaining two electrons • O2 + 4e- 2O2-
similarly • 2 Na + Cl2 2 NaCl • Each Na is losing an electron • 2Na 2Na+ + 2e- • Chlorine is gaining one electrons • Cl2 + 2e- 2Cl-
You try • Mg + Cl2 MgCl2 • 2Ca + O2 CaO
Simpler definition • LeoGer • Aka Leo the Lion goes Ger • Lose electrons = oxidation • Gain Electrons = reduction
Redox reactions happen simultaneously • As an oxidation occurs to lose electrons a reduction is happen to gain electrons. • The substance that is oxidized is called the reducing agent because it causes the reduction of the other substance. • The substance that is reduced is called the oxidizing agent because it causes the oxidation of the other substance.
Labels Applied • 2H2 + O2 2H2O • H2 is the reducing agent because it’s reducing oxygen. • O2 is called the oxidizing agent because it’s oxidizing H2.
You try • Write the reactions and label which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent. • 2Mg + O2 MgO • Fe + Cl2 FeCl2 • Zn(s) + Fe+2 Zn+2 + Fe(s)
Oxydation State: keeping track of electrons • C + 2S CS2 • Let’s figure out where the electrons are!
Rules! • 1. Pure elements have an oxydation state of 0 • 2. Any charged ion has an oxydation state equal to its charge • 3. If a compound is neutral the sum of all oxydation states equals 0 • 4. If a compound is charged the sum of all oxydation states equals the charge • 5. Group 1,2,3 will always be +1,+2,+3 • 6. Non metals get oxidation numbers on the next slide.
More Rules: Oxidation numbers • This is list is also in order of precedence! • Fluorine oxidation is always -1 • Hydrogen is +1 • Oxygen is -2 • Group 7 is -1 • Group 6 is -2 • Group 5 is -3
Examples • Br2 • K+ • LiF • CO2 • SO42- • Na2O2
Back to Carbon and Sulfur • C + 2S CS2 • What are the oxidation states? • What gets oxidized? • What gets reduced? • Which is the oxidizing agent? • Which is the reducing agent?
Balancing Redox Equations • Al(s) + Ag+(s) Al3(aq)+ + Ag(s) • What are the oxidation numbers of each one of these? • Let’s break this down into the oxidation and the reduction!
Oxidation • Al Al+3 • What’s the oxidation state of Al? Al+3 • This isn’t balanced! • We’re missing the electrons! • Al Al+3 + 3e- • Now we are balanced!
Reduction • Ag+ Ag(s) • What’s the oxidation state of Ag(s)? Ag+? • This isn’t balanced! • We’re missing the electrons! • Ag + + e- Ag(s)
Let’s look at them together • Al(s) Al+3 + 3e- • 1 e- + Ag+ Ag(s) • How many times must Ag+ be reduced in order for 1 Al(s) be oxidized?
3 Times! • Al(S) Al+3 + 3 e- • 3(1e- + Ag+ Ag(s)) • Al(s) Al+3 + 3e- • 3e- + 3 Ag+ 3 Ag(s) • If we add them the electrons can cancel out. • Al(s) + 3 Ag+ 3 Ag(s) + Al+3
You Try • Al(s) + Cu+2 Al+3 + Cu(s) • We’re looking to have charge and atom balanced!
Still Time? • I- + Cr2O7-2 Cr3+ + I2(s)
Read all of chapter 16 • Work on your wikis • Work on your homework • Homework due Monday • Take Home Quiz on Friday Too • Review Monday- Start Chapter 18 • Quiz on Wednesday.
