IONIC COMPOUNDS Compounds in Aqueous Solution
Most redox reactions are in water — aqueous solutions - and involve ionic compounds K+(aq) + MnO4-(aq) KMnO4 in water To play the movies and simulations included, view the presentation in Slide Show Mode.

Insoluble products: Precipitation formation
5
Precipitation Reactions
The “driving force”= solid. Pb(NO3)2(aq) KI(aq) g 2 KNO3(aq) PbI2(s) Net ionic equation Pb2+(aq) I-(aq) g PbI2(s)
6
Water Solubility of Ionic Compounds
If one ion from the “Soluble Compound” list is present, the compound is water soluble.
7
Aqueous Solutions Solutions that conduct electricity are called ELECTROLYTES Strong electrolytes dissociate completely (or nearly so) into ions.
8
Aqueous Solutions CH3CO2H(aq) ---> CH3CO2-(aq) + H+(aq)
Acids that ionize only to a small extent are called weak electrolyte. CH3CO2H(aq) ---> CH3CO2-(aq) + H+(aq)
9
Aqueous Solutions Some compounds dissolve in water but do not conduct electricity. They are called nonelectrolytes. Examples include: sugar ethanol ethylene glycol
10
Net Ionic Equations Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) g H2(g) + MgCl2(aq)
We really should write Mg(s) H+(aq) Cl-(aq) g H2(g) + Mg2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) The two Cl- ions are SPECTATOR IONS — they do not participate. Could have used NO3-.
11
We leave the spectator ions out —
Net Ionic Equations Mg(s) HCl(aq) > H2(g) + MgCl2(aq) Mg(s) H+(aq) Cl-(aq) > H2(g) + Mg2+(aq) Cl-(aq) We leave the spectator ions out — Mg(s) H+(aq) ---> H2(g) + Mg2+(aq) to give the NET IONIC EQUATION
12
EXCHANGE Acid-Base Reactions REACTIONS
13
Acid-Base Reactions The “driving force” = water. Net ionic equation
OH-(aq) + H+(aq) g H2O(l) This applies to ALL reactions of STRONG acids and bases.
14
Know the strong acids & bases!
15
ACIDS Some strong acids are HCl hydrochloric H2SO4 sulfuric
An acid g H+ in water Some strong acids are HCl hydrochloric H2SO4 sulfuric HClO4 perchloric HNO3 nitric HNO3
16
BASES Base g OH- in water NaOH(aq) ---> Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)
NaOH is a strong base
17
CaO(s) + H2O(liq) g Ca(OH)2(aq) Indicator shows solution is basic.
BASES CaO(s) + H2O(liq) g Ca(OH)2(aq) Metal oxides are bases CaO in water. Indicator shows solution is basic.
18
ACIDS CO2(aq) + H2O(l) g H2CO3(aq) SO3(aq) + H2O(l) g H2SO4(aq)
Nonmetal oxides can be acids CO2(aq) + H2O(l) g H2CO3(aq) SO3(aq) + H2O(l) g H2SO4(aq) and can come from burning coal and oil.

Why Study Redox Reactions
Batteries Corrosion Manufacturing metals Fuels
24
Examples of Redox Reactions
Combustion Fuel + Oxygen Metal (Mg) + Oxygen
25
Examples of Redox Reactions
Synthesis Metal + halogen 2 Al + 3 Br2 ---> 2AlBr3
26
REDOX REACTIONS Redox reactions are characterized by ELECTRON TRANSFER between an electron donor and electron acceptor.
27
Lose electrons: OXIDATION Gain electrons: REDUCTION
LEO says GER Lose electrons: OXIDATION Gain electrons: REDUCTION
28
REDOX REACTIONS Single replacement Cu(s) + 2 Ag+ (aq) gCu2+ (aq) + 2 Ag(s) In all reactions; if something is oxidized then something needs to be reduced
29
Elemental Oxygen always REDUCED (GAIN)
Combustion Fuel + Oxygen Metal (Mg) + Oxygen
30
Elemental Metals Always OXIDIZED (LOSE)
Cu + HNO3 Cu = oxidized HNO3 = reduced Mg + HCl Mg = oxidized H+ = reduced
31
OXIDATION NUMBERS The electric charge an element APPEARS to have when electrons are counted by some arbitrary rules:
33
Recognizing a Redox Reaction
OXIDATION NUMBERS = CHARGE 2 Al(s) + 3 Cu2+(aq) --> 2 Al3+(aq) + 3 Cu(s) Al(s) --> Al3+(aq) + 3 e- Therefore, Al is OXIDIZED Ox. no. of Al increases as e- are donated by the metal.
34
Recognizing a Redox Reaction
OXIDATION NUMBERS = CHARGE 2 Al(s) + 3 Cu2+(aq) --> 2 Al3+(aq) + 3 Cu(s) Cu2+(aq) + 2 e- --> Cu(s) Therefore, Cu is REDUCED Ox. no. of Cu decreases as e- are accepted by the ion.
