Q

what are the spectator ions in ; Na + (aq) + Cl- (aq) + Ag+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) = Na + (aq) + NO3- (aq) + AgCl (s)

A

Na and NO3

20
Q

Define net ionic equations

A

Equations that focus on the reaction that generates the solid (precipitate). They do not include spectator ions.

21
Q

How can you predict if a precipitate will form?

A
  1. switch ionic partners of reactants (always pair + with- )
    2.Fix formulas for new products
  2. Use solubility rules to decide if a product is insoluable
22
Q

What is an acid?

A

Produces H+ ions (protons) when dissolved in water.

23
Q

What is a base?

A

Produces OH- (hydroxide) ions when dissolved in water

24
Q

What is the format for acid-base reactions?

A

acid + base = salt + water

25
Q

Acid- Base reactions form…

A

salt and water

26
Q

H+ does not exists as H+ long in water so it forms H3O

A

True

27
Q

Strong acids…

A

dissociate completely into ions in aqueous solution and they are strong electrolytes

28
Q

Weak acids…

A

Dissociate a little in aqueous solutions and are weak electrolytes.

29
Q

strong base…

A

dissociate completely into ions in aqueous solutions

30
Q

weak bases

A

dissociate very little into ions in aqueous solution

31
Q

What is an example of an acid base reaction?

A

HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O

32
Q

define the equivalence point

A

the point where t he mol of H= from acid equals the mol of OH from the base

33
Q

Define the end point

A

it occurs when there is a slight excess of base and the indicator changes color permenently

34
Q

What happens an a redox reaction?

A

Electrons are transferred, one element is oxidized another is reduced

35
Q

Define oxidation

A

An electron is lost

36
Q

Define reduction

A

An electron is gained

37
Q

Define reducing agent

A

The element that is oxidized is the reducing agent

38
Q

Define the oxidation agent

A

the element that is reduced.

39
Q

what is the oxidation number for atoms in their elemental form?

A

0

40
Q

what is the general format of combination reactions?

A

X+Y= Z

41
Q

What is the general format decomposition reactions?

A

Z= X+Y

42
Q

What is the general formal of single displacement reactions?

A

X+YZ = XZ+Y

43
Q

what are combustion reactions?

A

It is a redox reaction that normally combines oxygen to release heat

44
Q

What is the general format of a combustion reaction?

A

Compound + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide+ water

45
Q

forward and reverse reactions happen…

A

at the same time
