1. Precipitation and Redox Reactions How Reactions Occur www.humbleisd.net/.../filedownload.ashx?...

2. TEK 10 (H) understand and differentiate among acid-base reactions, precipitation reactions, and oxidation-reduction reactions;

3. OBJECTIVE 1: Precipitation Reactions Understand: What a Precipitation Reaction is. What makes a Precipitation Reaction Occur. How the compounds swap Negative Ions. Use Formula Writing and Solubility Rules to predict products of a Precipitation Reaction

4. Precipitation Reactions What is a Precipitant? A Product of a chemical reaction that is a: Solid Gas Or Water (H 2 O) NOT AQUEOUS!!!!!!!!!! A Product must be INSOLUABLE. How do you know if a product is insoluble? Look on your solubility chart.

5. Remember? 1.Chemical reactions start with REACTANTS and make PRODUCTS 2.Five Signs of a Chemical Change 1.Gas Given Off (Bubbles) 2.Color Change (BIGGIE!!!!!!) 3.Heat is Produced or Absorbed 4.Odor Change 5.Precipitate Forms (Solid is Made)

6. Precipitation Reactions 1.Also known as Double Replacement Reactions 2.Two or more aqueous Reactants are mixed to form one or more Products that at least one is: 1.A solid (insoluble) 2.A gas 3.Or WATER!!

7. How Do I Know the States of Matter 1.Find the Ion that is in the compound that is on the list in the first column. 2.Determine if that ion is normally soluble (aq) or Insoluble (s) 3.Look to see if the exception is present in the compound. If the exception is present then the opposite is true. 4.Example: 1.CaCO 3 : CO 3 -2 is insoluble, Ca is not an exception so the compound is written CaCO 3 (s) 2.Na 2 CO 3 : CO 3 -2 is insoluble, Na is an exception so the compound is written Na 2 CO 3 (aq)

8. Precipitation Reactions occur 1.when metals in two different compounds swap nonmetals. 2.Compound + compound  compound + compound AX + BY  AY + BX 3.You MUST write NEW Formulas on every compound involved! 4.Determine if a product is a Solid, Gas or H 2 O 1.If all products are aqueous (aq) then NOTHING HAPPENS.

9. Let’s Review that Formula Writing Thing Copper (II) Chloride Copper (II) means? Copper has a charge of +2 SO: Cu +2 Chloride means? Chlorine has a charge of -1 How do I know? Chlorine is in Group 17 and all of them are -1. It takes two Chlorines to cancel out Copper’s +2 charge: CuCl 2 Remember: Drop and Swap the Numbers

10. Let’s look at a reaction Copper (II) Chloride is mixed with Silver Nitrate. Again, Copper (II) Chloride is CuCl 2 Silver Nitrate is: Silver is always +1 so: Ag + Nitrate is always: NO 3 -1 So: AgNO 3 AX+BY  AY+BX CuCl 2 + 2 AgNO 3  Cu(NO 3 ) 2 +2 AgCl Copper (II) Chloride + Silver Nitrate  Copper (II) Nitrate + Silver Chloride The last names swap

11. Does this reaction happen (STATES OF MATTER – MATTER!!!!) Check your states of matter CuCl 2 is soluble so, CuCl 2 (aq) AgNO 3 is soluble so, AgNO 3 (aq) Cu(NO 3 ) 2 is soluble so Cu(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) AgCl is insoluble so AgCl (s) CuCl 2 (aq) + 2 AgNO 3 (aq)  Cu(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + 2 AgCl(s) A solid formed so a reaction will occur NOTICE: Cl had a 2 subscript in the reactants but not in the products, why? Every compound is different!! You must Drop and Swap everytime!

12. Let’s try another Lead (II) Nitrate is mixed with Sodium Bromide Write the correct formulas for the reactants: Pb(NO 3 ) 2 NaBr Swap last names: Lead (II) Bromide Sodium Nitrate Write the correct formulas for the products: PbBr 2 NaNO 3 Pb(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 NaBr  PbBr 2 + 2 NaNO 3

13. Continue Check your states of matter WAIT A MINUTE, where did the in front 2’s come from????? BALANCING Pb(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 NaBr  PbBr 2 + 2 NaNO 3 All Nitrates are soluble All Bromides are soluble except Ag +, Pb +2, Hg +2 So, Pb(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + 2NaBr (aq)  PbBr 2 (s) + 2NaNO 3 (aq) A solid formed so a reaction occurs

14. Precipitation Reactions Think about it like “foil”ing in algebra, first and last ions go together + inside ions go together Example: AgNO 3(aq) +NaCl (s)  AgCl (s) + NaNO 3(aq) Another example: K 2 SO 4(aq) +Ba(NO 3 ) 2(aq)  2 KNO 3(aq) + BaSO 4(s)

15. Practice Predict the products. Balance the equation 1.HCl (aq) + AgNO 3(aq)  2.CaCl 2(aq) + Na 3 PO 4(aq)  3.Pb(NO 3 ) 2(aq) + BaCl 2(aq)  4.FeCl 3(aq) + NaOH (aq)  5.H 2 SO 4(aq) + NaOH (aq)  6.KOH (aq) + CuSO 4(aq) 

16. Objective 2: Oxidation-Reduction (REDOX) Reactions LEO SAYS GER

17. OBJECTIVES 1.Define oxidation and reduction in terms of the loss or gain of oxygen, and the loss or gain of electrons. 2.State the characteristics of a redox reaction and identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent.

18. Oxidation and Reduction (Redox) A process called “reduction” is the opposite of oxidation, and originally meant the loss of oxygen from a compound Oxidation and reduction always occur simultaneously The substance gaining oxygen (or losing electrons) is oxidized, while the substance losing oxygen (or gaining electrons) is reduced.

19. Oxidation and Reduction (Redox) Today, many of these reactions may not even involve oxygen Redox currently says that electrons are transferred between reactants Mg + S → Mg 2+ + S 2-  MgO (s) The magnesium atom (which has zero charge) changes to a magnesium ion by losing 2 electrons, and is oxidized to Mg 2+ The sulfur atom (which has no charge) is changed to a sulfide ion by gaining 2 electrons, and is reduced to S 2- (MgS)

20. Oxidation and Reduction (Redox) Each sodium atom loses one electron: Each chlorine atom gains one electron:

21. How do I know if REDOX occurs If one (or more) element(s) in the reaction loses electrons (LEO) and one (or more) element(s) in the reaction gains electrons (GER) then REDOX has occurred. It is that simple: Write the equation Determine the charges on every element See if LEO-GER has occurred

22. Assigning Oxidation Numbers An “oxidation number” is a positive or negative number assigned to an atom to indicate its degree of oxidation or reduction. Generally, a bonded atom’s oxidation number is the charge it would have if the electrons in the bond were assigned to the atom of the more electronegative element

23. Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers 1)The oxidation number of any uncombined element is zero. 2)The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals its charge.

24. Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers 3)The oxidation number of oxygen in compounds is -2, except in peroxides, such as H 2 O 2 where it is -1. 4)The oxidation number of hydrogen in compounds is +1, except in metal hydrides, like NaH, where it is -1.

25. Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers 5)The sum of the oxidation numbers of the atoms in the compound must equal 0. 2(+1) + (-2) = 0 H O (+2) + 2(-2) + 2(+1) = 0 Ca O H

26. Rules for Assigning Oxidation Numbers 6)The sum of the oxidation numbers in the formula of a polyatomic ion is equal to its ionic charge. X + 3(-2) = -1 N O thus X = +5 thus X = +6 X + 4(-2) = -2 S O

27. Reducing Agents and Oxidizing Agents An increase in oxidation number = oxidation A decrease in oxidation number = reduction Sodium is oxidized – it is the reducing agent Chlorine is reduced – it is the oxidizing agent

28. LEO says GER : LEO says GER : Lose Electrons = Oxidation Sodium is oxidized Gain Electrons = Reduction Chlorine is reduced

29. LEO says GER : LEO says GER : - Losing electrons is oxidation, and the substance that loses the electrons is called the reducing agent. - Gaining electrons is reduction, and the substance that gains the electrons is called the oxidizing agent. Mg (s) + S (s) → MgS (s) Mg is oxidized: loses e -, becomes a Mg 2+ ion S is reduced: gains e - becomes a S 2- ion Mg is the reducing agent S is the oxidizing agent

30. Identifying Redox Equations In general, all chemical reactions can be assigned to one of two classes: 1)oxidation-reduction (REDOX), in which electrons are transferred: Single-replacement – Where an element replaces another element in a compound (AX + B  BX + A) Combination – Where two or more elements combined to form a single compound (A + X  AX) Decomposition – Where a single compound breaks down into it’s individual elements (AX  A + X) Combustion – Where something burns in the air.

31. Non REDOX T his second class has no electron transfer, and includes all others: Precipitation Reactions (Double-replacement) (AX + BY  AY + BX) Acid-base reactions (HX + AOH  AX + H 2 O)

32. REDOX Reactions - Single Replacement (AX + B  BX + A) Copper (II) Chloride reacts with Lithium to produce Lithium Chloride and Copper +2 -1 0 +1 -1 0 CuCl 2 (aq) + 2 Li (s)  2 LiCl (aq) + Cu (s) You have to use the Activity Series on the back of your Periodic Table to determine if this will happen. If the element by itself is above the element in the compound then the reaction will occur. If the element in the compound is above the element by itself, then no reaction will occur. Remember, METALS REPLACE METALS, NONMETALS REPLACE NONMETALS.

33. REDOX Reactions - Single Replacement (AX + B  BX + A) Practice: Solid Copper is mixed with aqueous Silver Nitrate Copper is above Silver on the Activity Series, so a reaction will occur (a copper (II) compound is formed) Cu (s) + 2 AgNO 3 (aq)  Cu(NO 3 ) 2 + 2 Ag Check Reactants Cu = 0ProductsCu = +2 Ag = +1Ag = 0N = + 5O = - 2 Notice N and O didn’t change only Cu and Ag

34. ACTIVITY SERIES CHART In a Single Replacement reaction, you look at the metals in the Reactants. If the individual metal is higher on the Activity Series Chart then the reaction WILL Occur. If the individual metal is lower on the Activity Series Chart, then the reaction WILL NOT occur. I always have students say, what do you mean higher on the chart? I MEAN HIGHER, ABOVE, FIRST. Lithium is higher (above) Barium.
