Solutions in which water is the solvent
Aqueous solutions
When an ionic substance dissolves in water, the solvent pulls the individual ions from the crystals and solvates them.
Dissociation
If a substance froms ions in solution, then the substance is an ________, and the solution________electricity.
Electrolyte
Conducts
If a substance does not form ions in a solution, then the substance is ___________, and the solution ________electricity.
Nonelectrolyte
Does not conduct
Molecular solutions do not conduct electricity but there are important exceptions. Give 2 examples:
1.NH3(gas) reacts with water to form NH4+(aq) and
OH-(aq)
2. HCl(gas) ionizes in water to form H3O+(aq) and
Cl-(aq)

Acceptors
Know the 8 strong bases:
Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Ca, Sr, Ba
Occurs when an acid and a base react to generally form a salt and water.
Neutralization reaction
Any ionic compound whose cation comes from a base and anion from an acid.
Salt
The net ionic equation of a strong acid – base neutralization reaction reduces the formation of what?
Water
In a strong acid and weak base neutralization, the weak base ____dissociate and the net ionic equation will not simplify to only the formation of water.
Does not
to acid – base reactions that are a little bit different. Acid – base reactions with gas formation.
- Sulfides will form a gas and a salt(H2S(gas))
2. Carbonates and hydrogen carbonates will form a GASEOUS PRODUCT, CO2, and H2O when treated with an acid.
