Redox
Redox Properties Assign oxidation numbers Any change in ox # is a redox reaction Leo says ger
Half reactions Write an oxidation and reduction half reactions Fe + Zn 2+ Fe 2+ + Zn Cu + 2Ag(NO 3 ) Cu(NO 3 ) 2 + 2Ag
Balancing reactions Balance a redox reaction by writing half reactions Ca + Al +3 → Ca +2 + Al Fe + Ag + → Ag + Fe +3
Voltaic Cells
Electrochemical Cells
Organic
Isomers Same molecular formula, different structural formula
Hydrocarbons Contain only carbon and hydrogen Saturated- Unsaturated- Table Q- homologous series of hydrocarbons
Table P
Alkanes All single bonds Fit the formula: C n H 2n+2 Name the parent chain, then any branches- indicate what carbon the branches are on
Alkenes Has at least 1 double bond Fit the formula: C n H 2n Name the parent chain, indicate what position the double bond is on, name any branches
Alkynes Has at least 1 triple bond Fit the formula: C n H 2n-2 Name the parent chain first, indicate where the triple bond is, name any branches
Functional Groups They change the identity/properties of the hydrocarbons they attach to Be able to ID each functional group
Addition Reaction Unsaturated hydrocarbons
Substitution Reaction Saturated Hydrocarbons
Saponification Reaction Lipid + Base Soap + Glycerol
Fermentation Reaction Sugar with an enzyme yields and alcohol and carbon dioxide
Esterification Reaction Organic acid + Alcohol Ester + Water
Polymerization Reaction Linking small monomers into larger polymers
Nuclear Transmutation- Nucleus of an element decays into a new, different nucleus – Natural 1 reactant; a radioactive element will spontaneously decay into something smaller – Artificial 2 reactants; a fission reaction usually
Artificial Transmutation Start with 2 reactants
Fission Reactions Splitting of heavy nucleus into lighter nuclei Give off large amounts of energy Can happen on Earth
Types of Decay
Radioactive Decay
Fusion Reactions Combining 2 lighter nuclei into a heavier one Gives off large amounts of energy Happens on the Sun NOT ON EARTH
Uses of Isotopes Iodine-131 for thyroid disorders Technetium-99 for brain tumor locations Cobalt-60 for cancer therapy Uranium-238 for age of rocks/fossils
