1. Science 10 Mr. Francis 8.1 – CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS

2. A WARMUP ACTIVITY… Using the information in tables 1 and 2 on page 203, classify each compound below as an acid, base, or salt based on its properties: HCl: reacts with metals, turns litmus paper red KBr: conducts electrical current, chemical indicators do not change color NH 3 : turns methyl red indicator yellow NaNO 3 : does not react with metals; conducts electric current; phenolphtalein indicator remains colorless HNO 3 : turns indigo carmine from yellow to blue

3. 8.1 – THE KEY CONCEPT Compounds that have a high percentage of carbon by mass are classified as organic compounds, otherwise they are considered to be inorganic compounds

4. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Inorganic compounds can be molecular or ionic based on the type of bonds that hold the components (elements) together Inorganic ionic compounds can be classified as acids, bases, or salts depending on their properties

5. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Inorganic compounds can be classified as either molecular (a few) or ionic (most)

6. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Inorganic molecular compounds can be classified as either acids, bases, or salts Salts are substances that release positive and negative ions other than H + and OH - in solution For example sodium chloride, NaCl Acids are substances that release H + ions in solution Bases are substances that release OH - ions in solution

7. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS

8. Acids have the following properties: Sour taste Conduct an electrical current Causes chemical indicators to change colour Reacts with some metals to produce hydrogen gas (H 2 )

9. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Bases have the following properties: Slippery feeling, bitter taste Conducts an electric current Causes chemical indicators to change colour Does not react with acids to create hydrogen gas

10. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Salts have the following properties Salty taste No effect on chemical indicators Does not react with metals to make hydrogen gas

11. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Some common indicators are Methyl Red Bromothymol Blue Phenolphtalein

12. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Acidity is the measure of the relative amounts of H + and OH - in a solution and is often measured on a pH scale

13. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS Pure water is always neutral (pH 7 ) and has equal H + and OH - ions Acids have a greater number of H + ions The more H + ions, the more acidic the solution The more OH - ions, the more basic (or alkali) the solution Adding salt does not change the pH because it doesn’t change the amount of H + and OH - ions

14. CLASSIFYING INORGANIC COMPOUNDS The pH scale uses a logarithmic scale – each whole number is 10 times greater than the number before pH 4 is 10 times more acidic than pH 5 pH 3 is 100 times more acidic than pH 5 Some common acids are hydrochloric acid (HCl), nitric acid (HNO 3 ), and sulphuric acid (H 2 SO 4 )

15. NAMING ACIDS…..

16. Complete the worksheets Naming Acids You have 10 minutes

17. NAMING SALTS To name salts, you use your ionic naming rules Salts always contain positive (metal) and negative (non-metal) ions

18. ASSIGNMENT pH worksheet from after the test Naming acids worksheet Lab – Acids, Bases, and salts P. 209 Q 3,4,6,7,8,9,16
