Deduce the oxidation number of an element in a compound.
+ means loss, – gain of e- Rules Elements Na, O2, S8 = 0 Group 1 = +1 H=+1 O = -2 halides -1 Many exceptions Ox. # add up to the charge on the species In covalent compounds more electronegative is – ie NH3, CCl4

18
Define the terms oxidizing agent and reducing agent.
A substance that gets reduced causes oxidation so it is an oxidizing agent
19
Identify the oxidizing and reducing agents in redox equations.

9.3Reactivity Deduce a reactivity series based on the chemical behavior of a group of oxidizing and reducing agents. More reactive metals lose their e- more readily becoming a strong reducing agent Zn + CuSO4 Stronger Mg, AL, Zn, Fe, Pb, Cu, Ag simulation
21
Non metals F2 strongest oxidizing agent, most readily becomes reduced Cl2, Br2, I2

9:4 Voltaic Cells (battery)
Explain how a redox reaction is used to produce electricity in a voltaic cell Zn(s) → Zn2+(aq) + 2e- red. Agent Other half cell Cu2+ + 2e- → Cu(s) reduced This combination is a voltaic cell
24
State that oxidation occurs at the negative electrode (anode) and reduction occurs at the positive electrode (cathode) Which is the anode (where e- leave) /cathode? Draw this setup. Animation Draw Zn/Zn2+ and Ag/Ag+ and give the potential, show the flow of e- Where is oxidation and reduction
25
Connect these half cells with a salt bridge
this is a spontaneous reaction Animation Question 9

9:5 Electrolytic cells Describe, using a diagram, the essential components of an electrolytic cell. Opposite of a voltaic cell Requires electrical energy │ means + then – in diagrams Animation
27
The power source pushes e- to the – electrode
-electrode attracts + ions -electrode is the cathode cations gain e- so are reduced Show the electrolysis of MgF2

33
Define the term standard electrode potential (E Ö ) .
relative electrode potential compared under standard conditions with the standard hydrogen electrode Look at your data booklet

39
Determine the relative amounts of the products formed during electrolysis.
Position in the electrochemical series + ions lower in the series will gain e- at the – electrode (cathode) in preference to those higher Hydroxide ions release e- to form oxygen and H2O in preference to other anions at the positive electrode
40
In some cases concentrations ( more concentrated may be discharged)
Nature of the electrode C and Pt are inert List all the cations and anions Cations lower in the series gain e- more readily
41
Describe the use of electrolysis in electroplating.
CuSO4(aq) with copper electrodes Cu2+ goes to – electrode and plates Cu + electrode Cu goes to Cu2+(use impure ore)
42
Electroplating Object to be electroplated is put at the negative electrode and is placed in a solution of ions of the metal used to plate it.
43
Factors affecting relative amounts
Charge on the ions Na+ Cu2+ Al3+ Al takes more energy to make Quantity of e- (amperage and time) charge = current x time Do question 14
