Q

what are the general rules of thumb when working out the charges of elements?

A
  • group 1 = +
  • group 2 = 2+
  • group 3 = 3+
  • group 7 = -
  • group 6 = 2-
  • group 5 = 3-
  • a roman numeral after an element is the number of positive charges it has e.g Cu(II) = Cu 2+

38
Q

write a (balanced) symbol equation for the reaction between sulfuric acid and calcium carbonate

A

CaCO3 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + CO2 + H2O

39
Q

what are the 5 steps to make an ionic equation?

A
  1. write a full balanced equation
  2. dissociate (split up) soluble compounds into aqueous compounds
  3. write the equation after dissociating the soluble compounds
  4. cancel out spectator ions (both sides of reaction arrow)
  5. write an equation with what is left - include state symbols
40
Q

what do oxidation numbers tell us?

A

what’s been oxidized/reduced

(it gives the oxidation state of an element or ionic substance)

(the oxidation number of an element is the number of electrons that need to be added to (or taken away from) an element to make it neutral)

41
Q

what does oxidation mean?

A

something has lost 1 or more electrons
OIL

42
Q

what does reduction mean?

A

something has gained 1 or more electrons
RIG

43
Q

what are redox reactions?

A

reactions where oxidation and reduction has occurred

44
Q

what are the 6 rules of oxidation numbers?

A
  1. the oxidation number of an element in its standard state (at room temperature and pressure) is 0 and an element on its own is also 0
  2. the oxidation no. of an element in a compound or ion is USUALLY formed from that element if it became an ion e.g Cl- has an oxidation no. of -1 (however there are exceptions)
  3. hydrogen is always +1 unless bonded only to a metal (in metal hydrides) where it becomes -1
  4. oxygen is always -2 unless in a peroxide -1 or with a fluorine +2
  5. the sum of all oxidation numbers equal 0 in a neutral compound or the charge on the ion if the species in question is an ion
  6. in chemical species with atoms of more than one element, the most electronegative element is given the negative oxidation number
45
Q

when is the oxidation number of hydrogen not +1?

A

when it’s bonded only to a metal and it becomes -1

46
Q

when is the oxidation number of oxygen not -2?

A

when it’s in a peroxide (-1) or with a fluorine (+2)

e.g in H2O2 hydrogen peroxide, oxygen is -1

47
Q

what is the oxidation number of N in NaNO3?

A

Na = +1
O3 = -2 (-6)

so N = +5

48
Q

what is the oxidation number of Mn in MnO4 -?

A

O4 = -2 (-8)

so Mn = +7

bc has a negative overall charge

49
Q

does an increase in oxidation number mean oxidation or reduction?

A

oxidation (loosing an electron)

50
Q

does a decrease in oxidation number mean oxidation or reduction?

A

reduction (gaining an electron)

51
Q

when working out oxidation numbers, do balancing numbers have any impact??
(5HNO3)

A

no

52
Q

what is the formula of aluminium?

A

Al 3+

53
Q

what is a chemical symbol?
what is a formula?

A

14 N
7

H2O or NaCl

54
Q

what is an ionic equation?

A

Na+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) —> NaCl (s)

split up the (aq) into their separate elements, then get rid of the spectator ions

they show chemical species as DISSOCIATED IONS with INDIVIDUAL CHARGES

55
Q

what is an ionic compound?

A

they are made up of positive and negative ions, held together by electrostatic attraction

e.g NaCl or Al2O3

56
Q

if nothing changes on either side of the equation when working out the oxidation number, what does it mean?

A

it’s not a redox reaction

57
Q

what does OIL RIG stand for?

A

oxidation is loss
reduction is gain

58
Q

what are the ions that don’t change when working out the oxidation numbers called?

A

spectator ions

59
Q

what is the name of the type of redox reaction where a single substance is both oxidised and reduced?

A

disproportionation reaction

60
Q

what does OIL A RIG stand for

A

OIL
A
RIG
oxidation agent = gain
reducing agent = loss??

Q

what is the oxidation number of NO3?

A

-1

66
Q

what is an ionic equation?

the Mr

68
Q

bromine
magnesium
oxygen
sodium
which two of these elements together produce the most ionic bond? why?

A

oxygen and sodium
- they have the largest electronegativity difference

69
Q

2 C6H5CHO + H2O -> C6H5CH2OH + C6H5COOH
state why this reaction is classified as disproportionation [1]

A

either:
- the aldehyde is being oxidised to a carboxylic acid and reduced to an alcohol
- the aldehyde gains oxygen forming a carboxylic acid and gains hydrogen forming an alcohol
