4.2 the nature of aqueous solution p.119 Flashcards
what do aquaous solutions that conduct electricity effeciently contain
strong electrolytes
what do aquaous solutions that do not conduct electricity effeciently contain
weak electrolytes
what do solutions that do not conduct electricity contain
nonelectrolytes (disolve but do not produce ions)
what makes a strong electrolytes, weak electrolyte or non electrolyte
the number of ions that are produced (ionization) (the decomposition on ions) p.120
sodium chloride produces many ions when dissolved in water, therefore strong electrolyte
what are the classes if strong electrolytes
1)soluble salts
2) strong acids
3) strong bases
classes of weak electrolytes
- weak acids
- weak basis
name weak acids
- acetic acid (HC2H302) (one H at the beginning to differentiation acidic and not acidic hydrogen)
name weak elecrolytes
- ammonium (NH3) (weak acid)
- acetic acid (HC2H302) (CH3COOH) (one H at the beginning to differentiation acidic and not acidic hydrogen)
name non electrolytes
- ethanol (C2H5OH)
- sucrose (sugar) C12 H22 O11
(molecules remain intact)
are all ionic compounds strong eloctrolytes
no, some cannot disolve in water
name strong acids
HCIO4 perchloric acid
HCl hydrochloric acid
HBr hydrobromic acid
HI hydroiodic acid
HNO3 nitric acid
H2SO4 Sulfuric acid
name strong bases
LiOH lithium hydroxide
NaOH sodium hydroxide
KOH potassium hydroxide
Ca(OH)2 calcium hydroxide
Sr(OH)2 strontium hydroxide
Ba(OH)2 barium hydroxide
