Demo Time KI Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide
2H2O2 2H2O + O2 + HEAT!
2
Follow Up Questions Answer on a sheet of notebook paper:
Describe what happened in this demonstration. Was this an endothermic or exothermic reaction? What was the catalyst in this reaction? What 2 products caused the dramatic “smoke”? What type of reaction is this? Synthesis, decomposition or replacement
3
Precipitate Reactions
If the ions in 2 solutions combine to form a solid and that solid is NOT soluble with the solvent produced a precipitate will form. Example Fe(NO3)3(aq) + 3 NaOH(aq) Fe(OH)3(s) + 3 NaNO3(aq)
4
Demo Time Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) Cu(OH)2(s) + 2 NaNO3(aq)

6
Balancing Equations All atoms of reactants must be account for after the reaction!
7
Acids Produce H+ ions in H2O Ex: HCl H+ + Cl- Properties:
Tastes sour Corrosive reaction w/metal Reacts w/CO32- to make CO2 Turns blue litmus paper red
8
Examples of Acids HCl – hydrochloric acid
CH3CO2H – acetic acid (vinegar) H2SO4 – sulfuric acid Ascorbic Acid – Vitamin C (citrus) Fertilizers – Nitric & Phosphoric Acid Lactic Acid
9
Bases Tastes bitter feels slippery Turns red litmus paper blue
Produce OH- ions in H2O Ex: NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH- Tastes bitter feels slippery Turns red litmus paper blue
10
Examples of Bases NaHCO3 – baking soda household cleaners including:
NH3- ammonia Drain Cleaner
11
Strength The strength of an acid or a base is based on how well it produces ions in water. Strong Acids – HCl & H2SO4 Strong Bases - NaOH
12
Measuring Strength pH = Potential Hydrogen
Range of values from 0 to 14 that describes the concentration of H+ ions in a substance.
14
Safety Know the pH (strength) of the acid or base you are handling.
Everything from 2-12 is in the safe zone.
15
Precautions When working with a strong acid or base (0-2 or 11-14) be sure to wear goggles…even if it’s a dilute solution! For spills- Pour vinegar on a base & sodium bicarbonate on an acid…because…
17
Acid Base Neutralization
Displacement reaction Acid + Base (liquid) water +(solid) salt Salt = Group 1-2 Metal + a halogen
18
Demo Time NaHCO3 + NaOH Na2CO3 + H2O
Put the litmus in the NaOH and in a baking soda solution. Then add the 2 together to do the neutralization and then test again.
19
Chemicals Everywhere Chemistry all around us: Beauty products
Cleaning products Food products Scents & flavors Monitoring the environment Containers Protection Explosives
20
Materials We use the following materials on a regular basis, they are made of various substances that we’ve been studying lately: Plastics Metals Alloys Ceramics Glass
21
Chemistry Around Us Beauty products Cleaning products Food products
Scents & flavors Monitoring the environment Containers Protection Explosives Fuels
22
Polymers Large complex molecules made from smaller molecules joined together in a repeating pattern (chain). They are both naturally occurring & synthetic. Organic chemistry
23
Forming Polymers
24
Carbon Structures Polymers are mainly composed of various configurations of Carbon (C) & Hydrogen (H) Butane C4h10 (lighter fluid) BENZENE C6H6 (crude oil)
25
Natural Polymers Cellulose – cell walls of fruits & vegetables
Starches – pasta, bread & vegetables Natural fibers – hair, wool Amino Acids Protein DNA!
26
Synthetic Polymers Plastics MANY types (see p.731)
Fibers – carpets, nylon Chewing gum Teflon coating
27
Plastics Benefits: Cheap & easy to make Lightweight Versatile Durable
Problems: Disposal Recycling is cost prohibitive
28
Alloys A mixture of 2 or more elements at least one of which is a metal. Alloys are usually stronger & more durable than the metals which they are made from. They are also less likely to suffer corrosion from oxidation.
29
Examples Sterling silver – Ag & Cu Gold – Au &/or Cu
Pewter – Sn, Sb, Cu, Pb* Brass – Cu, Zn Steel – Fe, Cr, Ni, C
30
Ceramics Hard, crystalline solids made from heating clay (water & minerals – Si, AL & O) to very high temperatures.
31
Properties Water resistant Strong building material - bricks
Not conductive of electricity Can withstand much higher temperatures than most metals Brittle & prone to breaking
32
Uses Containers Storage Cookware
Archaeologists use ceramic sherds for relative dating! Home construction – roofs & floors Replace joints – hips, knees, teeth (dentures)
33
Glass Molten sand & limestone can be shaped and cooled into waterproof vessels.
34
Uses Storage Containers Windows
Lenses for eyeglasses, telescopes, microscopes Cookware Data transmission (optical fiber)
