4.1 Water, the common Solvent Read and outline 4.1 Define

Polar Molecule

Hydration

Solubility

Why is ethanol soluble in water? What is a “useful” rule to follow when predicting solubility? 4.1 Notes

Water is a polar water molecule. Above you will see δ+ or δ-. This symbol is used to denote a partial charge of the electronegativity within the atom. Electronegativity is when an atom pulls the electrons from a shared covalent bond closer to itself making it partially more negative. In this case, the oxygen pulls the electrons in and the hydrogen atoms become more positive. During hydration, the partially negative oxygen surrounds the

positive salt ions (cations), and partially positive hydrogen atoms surround the negative salt ion (anion).

4.2 Notes Another word for a liquid homogenous mixture is solutions. A solution is formed from a solute and solvent. The solute is the substance being dissolved (salt, acid, base….), and the solvent is what is doing the dissolving (water—for our purposes). One useful property for characterizing a solution is its electrical conductivity, its ability to produce an electric current. A strong electrolyte will create a current in the solution. When a light fixture is added to the solution a bright light emits. Strong electrolytes are soluble salts, strong acids, and strong bases. A weak electrolyte emits a dim light; weak acids and weak bases cause this. Nonelectrolytes emit no light because there are no ions to create a current in the solution. Soluble organic compounds and insoluble salts fall in this category.

4.3 The composition of Solutions Read and outline 4.3 Define

Molarity

Standard solution

Dilution

How do you make a standard solution? What is a stock solution? Why should you never ever ever ever ever ever pour liquid back into a stock solution?

4.3 Notes We will express concentration in terms of molarity in this class. Molarity is the amount a moles per 1 liter of solution.

Equation: M = molarity, n = moles, V = Volume in liters



5

Example 4.3a Calculate the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 11.5 g of solid NaOH in enough water to make 1.50L of solution. Example 4.3b Give the concentration of each type of ion in the following solution: 0.50 M Co(NO3)2 and 1M Fe(ClO4)3. Example 4.3c Calculate the number of moles of Cl- ions in 1.75 L of 1.0 x 10-3 M ZnCl2. Example 4.3d Typical blood serum is about 0.14 M NaCl. What volume of blood contains 1.0mg NaCl? Example 4.3e To analyze the alcohol content of certain wine, a chemist needs 1.00 L of an aqueous 0.200 M K2Cr2O7 solution. How much solid potassium dichromate must be weighted out to make this solution?



6

To save time and space, solutions are prepared in concentrated from called a stock solution. Water is then added to achieve the desired molarity for a lab. This process is called dilution. A typical dilution calculation involves determining how much water must be added to an amount of stock solution. The key to doing these calculations is to remember that the number of moles after dilution is the equal to the number of moles before the dilution. The reason why is because only water is added to accomplish the dilution. A proper dilution procedure involves two types of glassware: a pipet, and a volumetric flask. You will first need to find the amount of concentrated solution added to the water. Equation: M = Molarity, V = Volume, 1 = first solution, 2 = second solution Example 4.3f How would you dilute 16M sulfuric acid to 1.5L of 0.10 M sulfuric acid solution? Example 4.3g Write a procedure on how to prepare the dilution from example 4.3f.

What three requirements must be met for a titration to be successful? What is the most common indicator in acid-base reactions? What does standardizing the solution mean?

4.8 Notes We have learned that acids have H+ ions and bases have OH- ions. What about ammonia, NH3? We know that ammonia is a base but does not have hydroxide ions. In the 20s, Bronsted and Lowry came up with a definition to encompass all acids and bases. The defined an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor. This means that NH3 will accept a hydrogen ion from water. When was gives hydrogen (proton) all that is left is hydroxide.

NH3 + H2O ↔ NH4+ + OH-

Performing calculations for acid-base reaction

1. Write a balanced reaction 2. Calculate the moles of reactants. 3. Determine the limiting reactant 4. Calculate the moles of required reactant or product 5. Convert to grams or volume, as required

Example 4.8a What volume of a 0.100 M HCl solution is needed to neutralize 25.0 mL of 0.350 M NaOH? Example4.8b In a certain experiment, 28.0 mL of 0.250 M HNO3 and 53.0 mL of 0.320 M KOH are mixed. Calculate the amount of water formed in the resulting reaction. What is the concentration of H+ or OH- ions in excess after the reaction goes to completion. Acid-Base Titration Volumetric Analysis is a technique for determining the amount of a certain substance by doing a titration. A titration involves delivery from a buret of a measured volume of a solution of known concentration (the titrant) into a solution containing the substance being analyzed (the Analyte). The point in the titration where enough titrant has been added to react exactly with the analyte is called the equivalence point or stoichiometric point. The point where the indicator changes color is called the endpoint.



12

Three requirements for a titration to be successful

1. The exact reaction between titrant and analyte must be known. 2. The stoichiometric point must be marked accurately. 3. The volume of titrant required to reach the stoichiometric point must be known accurately.

Example 4.8c A student carries out an experiment to standardize a sodium hydroxide solution. To do this, the student weighs out a

1.3009 g sample of KHC8H4O4 known as KHP (MM = 204.22 g/mol) which has one acidic hydrogen. The student dissolves the KHP in distilled water, adds phenolphthalein as an indicator and titrates the resulting solution with the sodium hydroxide solution to the endpoint of the indicator. The difference between the final and initial buret reading indicates that 41.20 mL of the sodium hydroxide solution is required to react with the 1.3009 g KHP. Calculate the concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution.

Example4.8d In an industrial process a chemist analyzed the waste material carbon tetrachloride and HC7H5O2, a weak acid that has

one acidic hydrogen. A sample of this waste material weighing 0.3518 g was shaken with water, and the resulting solution aqueous solution required 10.59 mL of 0.1546 M NaOH for neutralization. Calculate the mass percent of weak acid in the original sample.

Oxidation – reduction reaction

Oxidation States

Oxidation

Reduction

Oxidizing agent

Reducing agent

Why is oxidation important to us? How is oxidation states assigned? What has a greater attraction for electrons than hydrogen?

4.9 Notes Oxidation – Reduction Reactions are known as redox reactions. These reactions transfer electrons. In order to keep track of how many electrons are transferred, we need to assign oxidation states. Most of the time oxidation states are integer numbers. Sometimes you will have a noninteger number. Do not let this intimidate you. It is just a number. Rules for assigning oxidation numbers

2. The oxidation number for elements is zero. 3. The oxidation number for monoatomic ions is the same as its charge. 4. Fluorine in compounds is always -1. 5. Oxygen is usually assigned -2 except when in O2

-2 where it is -1, and in OF2 where it is +2. 6. In its covalent compounds hydrogen is assigned +1. 7. The sum of the oxidation numbers should add up to the charge of the compound or polyatomic ion.

2. SF6

3. NO3-

4. KMnO4

5. NiO2

6. K4Fe(CN)6

7. (NH4)2HPO2

8. P4O6

When balancing redox reactions not only do we need to balance the elements, but we need to balance the electrons too. After we have assigned oxidation states we will need to split the reaction into half reactions. One reaction is called the oxidation reaction. This reaction has a loss of electrons. The reactant that is being oxidized is the reducing agent. The other reaction that gains electrons is called the reduction reaction. The reactant that accepts the electrons is called the oxidizing agent. Just like we use HONCLBRIF to remember the diatomic elements, we use many ways to remember which half reaction is oxidation/reduction. There are many ways to remember this I like to say; “LEO says GER. Losing electrons is oxidation and gaining electrons is reduction. Mr. Galinski uses: OIL RIG. Oxidation is losing and reduction is gaining. I like my way. You pick whatever way you are going to remember it. (My way is better!) Example4.9 b Explain the following reactions in Redox terms 2Al + 3I2 → AlI3 2PbS + 3O2 → 2PbO + 2SO2
