Q

[TESTS FOR ANIONS]

how do you test for a carbonate
gas based

A
  • add dilute nitric acid to solid/solution being tested
  • if you see bubbles, compound could be a carbonate
  • to prove gas is CO2 bubble gas through limewater

*carbonates react with acids to produce CO2

Q

[TESTS FOR ANIONS]

how do you test for a sulfate
precipitate based

A
  • add barium nitrate
  • white precipitate should form

*most sulfates are soluble but BaSO4 is insoluble thus produces precipitate

**could also use barium chloride if not also testing for halide (as you are introducing Cl- ions to the solution)

Q

what is the correct order for testing anions

A
  • carbonate, CO3^2- (only carbonates produce effervescent when reacting with acid)
  • sulfate, SO4^2- (2nd as BaCO3 is also a white precipitate and thus need to rule out CO3 first)
  • halides, Cl- Br- I- (both AgCO3 and AgSO4 are insoluble so need to rule out its not a carbonate or sulfate 1st)

Q

how would you test a mixture of anions

A
  • carbonate test, add dilute nitric acid (HNO3) until bubbling stops so all CO3 has been reacted [xhCL, xh2SO4]
  • sulfate test, add excess Ba(NO3)2 and filter solution to remove barium sulfate [xBaCl2]
  • halide test, add AgNO3 (all sulfate and carbonate ions have already been removed). Add NH3 to test which halide

Q

[TESTS FOR CATIONS]

how do you test for ammonium ions (NH4+)

A
  • add aqueous sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
  • ammonia gas is produced (no bubbles as its is soluble)
  • warm mixture & ammonia gas is released
  • test gas with moistures pH indicator paper, alkaline thus turn paper blue
  • NH4+ + OH- –> NH3 + H20

Q

what is heterogeneous equilibrium and how would you find its Kc

A

contains equilibrium constants in different states or phases. omit any solids or liquids from equation as they are constants. Kc only includes (g) or (aq)

Q

how do you find the mole fraction for a gas eg. gas A

A

mole fraction x(A) = number of moles of A/ total number of moles in gas mixture

*the sum of all mole fractions in a gas mixture should = 1

Q

how do you find the partial pressure for a gas eg. gas A

A

22
Q

what is the Bronsted-Lowry definition of a base

A

proton acceptor

23
Q

hydronium ion

A

H3O+, water accepts a proton to form its conjugate acid can be used in place of an H+ in reactions

24
Q

how is a salt formed

A

a metal or ammonium ion replaces an H+ in an acid

25
Q

when writing ionic equations for reactions of acids

A

only the H+ and metal ion matter

26
Q

acid + metal

A

-> salt + hydrogen

27
Q

acid + carbonate

A

-> salt + CO2 + H2O

28
Q

acid + metal oxide

A

-> salt + water

29
Q

acid + alkali

A

-> salt + water

Q

log equation for pH

A

pH= -log[H+]

31
Q

log equation for [H+]

A

[H+]= 10^-pH

32
Q

pH increases in factors of …

A

10 ie. x10 between pH 3 & pH 4

33
Q

log equation for Ka

A

Ka = 10^-pKa

34
Q

log equation for pKa

A

pKa = -logKa

35
Q

the stronger the acid the … the Ka value and the … the pKa value

A

the stronger the acid the (greater) the Ka value and the (smaller) the pKa value

36
Q

the weaker the acid the … the Ka value and the … the pKa value

A

the weaker the acid the (smaller) the Ka value and the (bigger) the pKa value

37
Q

what are the 2 approximations made when finding the pH of a weak acid and when do they not work

A
  1. [H+] = [A-] as the dissociation of water is negligible. Unless very dilute or very weak acid is used
  2. the dissociation of a weak acid is so small you can use [HA] from start = [HA] at equilibrium rather than [HA] from start = [HA] at equilibrium - [H+] at eqm. unless [H+] is significant (ie. stronger acids)
38
Q

for weak acids what would the Ka expression look like

A

Ka = [H+]^2/[HA]

39
Q

equation for ionic product of water

A

Kw = [H+] x [OH-]

40
Q

how do you find the pH of a strong base

A

as base is strong [base]=[OH-], then use Kw expression to find [H+]
