Water has remarkable chemical and physical properties High melting and boiling points Expands when freezes (ice floats) Dissolves a wide variety of substances (the universal solvent) Provides an ideal environment in which numerous chemical reactions can occur (aqueous reactions) The chemical reactions of life require and The chemical reactions of life require, and occur in, water 2

Solutions, solvents, and solutes Solution: a homogeneous mixture of 2 or more substances Solvent: the substance in the solution present in greatest quantity Solutes: other substances that are dissolved in the solvent Solution concentration: the amount of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solvent or solution An aqueous solution is a solution where water is the solvent 3

Some common aqueous solutions Solutions of sugars (glucose, fructose, sucrose, lactose, etc) Solutions of alcohols (methanol, ethanol, etc) Solutions of salts (sodium chloride, potassium chloride, ammonium sulfate, etc) Solutions of acids Solutions of bases 4

The solution process 5

The solution process 1. Break intermolecular attractions in pure solute to free up individual id molecules l (solute) n n solute 2. Disrupt water-water intermolecular attractions to provide room for solute to dissolve (water) m m water 3. Form new solute-water intermolecular forces n solute + m H 2 O (solute) n (water) m 6

Electrolytes and nonelectrolytes Electrolytes: compounds that dissolve in water to produce ions (soluble ionic compounds, acids and bases in water) dissociate or ionize in solution Nonelectrolytes: compounds that dissolve in water, and yet do not form ions in solution (soluble molecular compounds in water) dissolve but don t ionize 7

Sodium chloride dissolves in water to form hydrated sodium and choride ions + - 8

Electrolytes: acids, bases, and salts Acids: Hydrogen-containing compounds that dissociate in water to produce hydrogen ion and a partner anion Compounds that t increase [H + ] in aq. solutions Bases: compounds that react with (accept) hydrogen ions, producing water Compounds that increase [OH-] in aq. solutions Salts: Ionic compounds that are neither acids or bases 9

Acids: Hydrogen-containing compounds that dissociate in water to produce hydrogen ion (H + ) and a partner anion Strong acids: dissociate (ionize) completely in solution Weak acids: dissolve completely, but only partially ionize in solution Polyprotic acids: have more than one ionizable proton 10

Bases: (1) compounds that react with (accept) hydrogen ions, producing water. (2) Compounds that increase [OH - ] in aq. solutions. Metal hydroxides Ammonia Strong bases: dissociate (ionize) completely in solution Weak bases: Ionize only partially in solution, or dissolve incompletely in solution 11

Strong acids and bases Common strong acids HCl, HBr, HI (but not HF) HClO 4 HNO 3 Common strong bases Group 1A metal hydroxides (LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH). These dissociate completely at 1 M and higher concentrations H 2 SO 4 (only the first H + ionizes completely) The heavier Group 2A metal hydroxides dissociate completely but only at low concentrations 12

Salts: Compounds that dissociate (ionize) in water but are not acids or bases 13

Electrolytes Strong electrolytes: salts, acids, and bases that dissolve completely or nearly completely in water to form ions Weak electrolytes: l t Compounds that t dissolve in water, but produce only a small concentration of ions when dissolved (partial dissociation; partial ionization) 14

Electrolytes and nonelectrolytes distilled water: a nonelectrolyte tap water: a weak electrolyte 15

Electrochemistry is a fascinating area The chemistry going on in this simple demonstration could be the solution to much of of our future energy needs 16

Solubility: a term that refers to how much of a solute can dissolve in a given amount of solvent (grams solute dissolved/100 ml solution) Ionic compounds Molecular compounds Acids and bases 17

Degrees of solubility soluble in water: glucose, NaCl, NaOH, acetic acid, MgSO 4 ( soluble means a significant amount can dissolve) Insoluble in water: CaCO 3, AgCl, C 6 H 14, I 2 ( insoluble means a very little amount dissolves) miscible with water: ethanol, glycerol, formaldehyde ( miscible means soluble at all proportions) 18

Solubility of salts Most salts are classified as soluble Some salts are insoluble (poorly soluble) The distinction between soluble and insoluble is based on whether a significant amount dissolves in water (see next slide) Don t memorize which salts are soluble and insoluble at this point, but some being familiar with some general guidelines will be useful for you 19

Salt Solubility (g/100 g water at 25 C Classification NaCl 35.9 Largely soluble NaNO 3 91.2 Largely soluble Ca(CH 3 COO) 2 ~33 Largely soluble MgSO 4 ~25 Largely soluble CaSO 4 ~0.2 Largely insoluble ACl AgCl 0.000520000520 Largely insoluble CaF 2 ~0.002 Largely insoluble NH 4 F 45 Largely soluble PbCl 2 ~4.5 Slightly soluble Pb(NO 3 ) 2 ~60 Largely soluble CaCO 3 0.0013 Largely insoluble Na 2 CO 3 ~230 Largely soluble PbS 2 ~2.6 x 10 9 Largely insoluble Pb(CH 3 COO) 2 ~50 Largely soluble 20

Solubility of some commonly encountered salts in water All ionic compounds with nitrate (NO - 3 ), group 1A metal ions, and ammonium ion (NH 4+ ) are soluble All binary salts of Cl -, Br -, I - are soluble, except with Ag +, Hg +, Pb 2+ Nearly all acetate (CH 3 COO - ) salts are soluble Most sulfate (SO 2-4 ) salts are soluble (exceptions: BaSO 4 4, CaSO 4, PbSO 4, SrSO 4 Most hydroxide (OH - ) salts are insoluble (ex. w/group 1A metal ions or NH + 4, heavier group 2A hydroxides are slightly soluble) Most oxide (O 2- ) and sulfide (S 2- )salts are insoluble (ex. w/group 1A metal ions or NH 4+ ) Most phosphate and carbonate salts are insoluble (ex. w/group 1A metal ions or NH 4+ ) Many F - salts are insoluble (ex. w/group 1A metal ions or NH 4+ and some others) Blah, blah, blah.. That s enough for now 21

Summary. Many salts are soluble and hence strong electrolytes Most acids are weak acids and hence weak electrolytes Group 1A and the heavier group 2A metal hydroxides are strong bases and hence strong electrolytes Ammonia is a weak base and hence a weak electrolyte Soluble molecular compounds that don t ionize in solution are nonelectrolytes 22

Oxidation numbers An atom in its elemental state has an oxidation number of zero, meaning it has neither gained nor lost electrons Oxidation numbers of H, N, O, C, and S in H 2, N 2, O 2, C (graphite), and S 8 are all zero For monatomic ions, the oxidation number is the same as the ion charge Monatomic metal cation Oxidation number Monatomic nonmetal anion Oxidation number Li + Na +, K +, Cu + plus one (+1) F - Cl -, Br -, I - minus one (-1) Mg 2+, Ca 2+, Sr 2+, Fe 2+ plus two (+2) O 2-, S 2- Se 2-, Te 2- minus two (-2) Al 3+, Fe 3+, Cr 3+, Ni 3+ plus three (+3) N 3-, P 3- minus three (-3) Note H, a nonmetal, can have an oxidation number of +1 in the hydrogen ion (H + ) or -1 in the hydride ion (H - ) The oxidation numbers of atoms in molecular compounds and polyatomic ions are assigned by rules we will discuss later 38
