Chapter 4 Flashcards
Solution
Homogeneous mixture of 2 or more substances
Solute
This is the substance present in the smaller amount
Solvent
The substance present in larger amounts
Electrolyte
A substance that, when dissolved in water, results in a solution that can conduct electricity
Non electrolyte
Substance, that when dissolved in water, results in a solution that does not conduct electricity
100% dissociation
This means it is a strong electrolyte
Product is split back into elemental form
Not completely dissociated
Weak electrolyte
Product contains compounds still
Ionization
An atom or molecule gains or loses a positive or negative charge
Hydration
The process in which an ion is surrounded by water molecules arranged in a specific manner
Precipitate
Insoluble solid that separated from solution
Solubility
The maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a given quantity of solvent at a specific temperature
Four steps for writing Ionic Equations
- Pair outers and inner ions, then write the balanced molecular equation
- Label solids and aqueous solutions, then separate aqueous ions and rewrite equation
- Cancel the repeat ions on both sides and the ionic equation
- Check that charges and number of atoms are balanced on the net ionic equation
Ionic compounds containing these ions are all soluble
- Alkali metal cations
- ammonium ion
- Nitrate
- Bicarbonate
- Chlorate
(Anything else a table will be given to refer to)
Properties of acids
- I have a sour taste
- Cause color changes in plant dyes
- React with certain metals to produce hydrogen gas
Properties of bases
- Have a bitter taste
- Feel slippery. Many soaps contain bases
- Cars color changes in plant dyes
- Acquiesce base solutions conduct electricity
Proton doner
Bronsted acid
Proton acceptor
Bronsted base (anion)
Types of oxidation reduction reactions
- Combination reaction
- Decomposition reaction
- Combustion reaction
- Displacement reaction
Concentration formula
Molarity = moles of solute/liters of solution
Dilution
The procedure for preparing less concentrated solution from a more concentrated solution
Titration
A solution of accurately known concentration is added gradually to another solution of unknown concentration until the chemical reaction between the two solutions is complete
Always soluble
Li+, Na+, K+, CS+, Rb+, NH4, NO3-, C2H3O2-, ClO3-, ClO4
Write full molecular equation for precipitation reaction
- Combine first and last together and middle together
- Balance equation
- Next you can write ionic equation
Considered strong electrolyte
Strong acids, strong bases and salts
