An electrolyte is a substance that, when dissolved in water, results in a solution that can conduct electricity. A nonelectrolyte is a substance that, when dissolved, results in a solution that does not conduct electricity. nonelectrolyte weak electrolyte strong electrolyte 4.1 Solute
Strong Electrolyte – 100% dissociation NaCl (s) Na + (aq) + Cl - (aq) H2OH2O Weak Electrolyte – not completely dissociated CH 3 COOH CH 3 COO - (aq) + H + (aq) Conduct electricity in solution? Cations (+) and Anions (-) 4.1 Strong and Weak Electrolytes A reversible reaction. The reaction can occur in both directions. Acetic acid is a weak electrolyte because its ionization in water is incomplete.
Nonelectrolyte does not conduct electricity? No cations (+) and anions (-) in solution C 6 H 12 O 6 (s) C 6 H 12 O 6 (aq) H2OH2O
4.1 How to Predict Electrolytes Water soluble and ionic = strong electrolyte (probably) Water soluble and molecular, and a weak acid or weak base = weak electrolyte Otherwise, the compound is probably a nonelectrolyte.

4.2 Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a specific temperature.
Molecular equation, Ionic equation and net Ionic equation molecular equation ionic equation net ionic equation Pb NO Na + + 2I - PbI 2 (s) + 2Na + + 2NO 3 - Na + and NO 3 - are spectator ions: ions that are not involved in the overall reaction Pb(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + 2NaI (aq) PbI 2 (s) + 2NaNO 3 (aq) precipitate Pb I - PbI 2 (s) 4.2
Writing Net Ionic Equations 1.Write the balanced molecular equation. 2.Write the ionic equation showing the strong electrolytes completely dissociated into cations and anions. Weak and non electrolytes are written as molecules 3.Cancel the spectator ions on both sides of the ionic equation 4.Check that charges and number of atoms are balanced in the net ionic equation AgNO 3 (aq) + NaCl (aq) AgCl (s) + NaNO 3 (aq) Ag + + NO Na + + Cl - AgCl (s) + Na + + NO 3 - Ag + + Cl - AgCl (s) 4.2 Write the net ionic equation for the reaction of silver nitrate with sodium chloride.
The net ionic equation tells us: What actually changed during a reaction Example: Cd 2+ (aq) + S 2- (aq) –> CdS (s) Writing ionic equations, ask: 1. is substance soluble ? 2. is substance a strong electrolyte? **If yes to both questions, write substance as ions. 3. Weak and non electrolytes are written as molecules. Conditions that favor product formation: formation of a precipitate formation of a soluble weak electrolyte formation of a nonelectrolyte formation of a gas oxidation-reduction reactions (involves electron transfer!)

Neutralization Reaction acid + base salt + water HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) NaCl (aq) + H 2 O H + + Cl - + Na + + OH - Na + + Cl - + H 2 O H + + OH - H 2 O 4.3 Neutralization occurs when a solution of an acid reacts with a base. The products are salt and water. Salt = ionic compound cation from a base + anion from an acid However, a weak base and an acid gives only a salt HCl +NH 3 NH 4 Cl
Oxidation-Reduction Reactions Oxidation number The charge the atom would have in a molecule (or an ionic compound) if electrons were completely transferred. 1.Free elements (uncombined state) have an oxidation number of zero. Na, Be, K, Pb, H 2, O 2, P 4 = 0 2.In monatomic ions, the oxidation number is equal to the charge on the ion. Li +, Li = +1; Fe 3+, Fe = +3; O 2-, O = -2 3.The oxidation number of oxygen is usually –2. 4.4
4.The oxidation number of hydrogen is +1 except when it is bonded to metals in binary compounds (e.g. LiH, CaH 2 ). In these cases, its oxidation number is –1. 6.The sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms in a molecule or ion is equal to the charge on the molecule or ion. For example,NH 4 +, the sum of oxidation numbers is -3+4(+1)=+1 5.Group IA metals are +1, IIA metals are +2 and fluorine is always –1. HCO 3 - O = -2H = +1 3x(-2) ? = -1 C = +4 Oxidation numbers of all the elements in HCO 3 - ? 4.4
The oxidation numbers of elements in their compounds 4.4 *Metallic elements: only positive oxidation number; nonmetallic elements: positive or negative oxidation number; *The highest oxidation number of an element in group1A-7A is its group number.

The Activity Series for Metals The Activity Series * Arranges metals according to their ease of oxidation *The higher the metal on the Activity Series, the more active that metal (the easier it is oxidized.)Any metal can be oxidized by the metal ions below it. *Any metal above hydrogen will displace it from water or from an acid.
The Activity Series arranges metals according to their ease of oxidation can be used to predict reactions The higher the metal on the Activity Series, Figure 4.16, the more active that metal (the easier it is oxidized.) Any metal can be oxidized by the ions of elements below it on Figure Cu + AgNO3 --> Cu(NO3)2 + Ag Cu is above Ag in the activity series; Cu is more active. Therefore Cu will displace Ag+ from a solution of AgNO3. Silver metal will come out of the solution (reduction.) The solution will begin to turn blue from the presence of Cu2+ as the copper metal reacts (oxidizes.)
