Cations/ Anions, contd. You can figure out the charge of

an ion by using the periodic table. For Example:

Alkali metals such as Lithium can easily lose an electron to become stable (just like a Noble gas) so taking away an electron give Lithium a +1 charge.

On the other hand Halogens can easily accept an electron to become stable. Accepting an electron gives halogens a -1 charge.

Net Ionic Equation To create a net ionic equation,

you break apart all ionic molecules in a balanced molecular equation into their ions if they are soluble.

If there are spectator ions, ions that appear on both sides of the equation, they cancel each other.

Net Ionic Example Silver nitrate is mixed with

potassium chromate– 2AgNO3 + K2CrO4 → Ag2CrO4 +

2KNO3 Molecular Equation– 2Ag+ + 2NO3ˉ + 2K+ + CrO4-2 →

Ag2CrO4 + 2K+ + 2NO3-2

Complete ionic equation

– 2Ag+ + CrO4-2 → Ag2CrO4Net Ionic Equation

Synthesis Synthesis occurs when two or more reactants

combine to form a single product. There are several common types of synthesis reaction.

You know it happens when you have:

-A metal combines with a nonmetal to form a bianary salt.

-A piece of lithium metal is dropped into a container of nitrogen gas.

6Li+ N2 2Li3N

-Metal oxide and water forms a base (metallic hydroxide)

-Solid sodium oxide is added to water.Na2O + H2O 2NaOH

Synthesis, contd. Nonmetal oxide and water

forms acids. Nonmetal retains its oxidation number.

-Carbon dioxide is burned in water.

CO2 + H2O H2CO3 Metallic oxides and

nonmetallic oxides form salts.

-Solid sodium oxide is added to carbon dioxide.

Na2O + CO2 Na2CO2

Decomposition Occurs when a single reactant is

broken down into two or more products.

The reactions react to form basic compounds or elements.

When a compound is heated or electrolyzed, it means that it is broken up into its ions.

AB A+B

Examples of Decomposition A sample of magnesium

carbonate is heated.MgCO3

MgO + CO2

Molten sodium chloride is electrolyzed. 2NaCl 2Na + Cl2

A sample of ammonium carbonate is heated.

(NH4)2CO3 2NH3 + H2O + CO2

Single Replacement Reactions that involve an element

replacing one part of a compound. The products include the displace element and a new compound. An element can only replace another element that is less active than itself. (Look a activity series/ AP packet)

A +BX B+AX

Single Replacement Rules1. Active metals replace less active

metals from the less active metals’ compounds in aqueous solutionsex. 3Mg+ 2FeCl3—> 2Fe + 3MgCl2

2. Active metals replace hydrogen in waterex. 2Na + 2H2O—> H2 + 2NaOH

3. Active metals replace hydrogen in acids ex. 2Li + 2HCl —> H2 + 2LiCl

Single Replacement Rules, contd.4. Active nonmetals replace less

active nonmetals from their compounds in aqueous solutionsex. Cl2 + 2KI —> I2 + 2KCl

5. If a less reactive element is combined with a more reactive element in compound form, there will be no reactionex. Cl2 + KF —> no reaction*

* On the AP test reactions will ALWAYS have products; it will never be “no reaction.”

Activity Series (Single Replacement)

Metals– Li, Ca, Na, Mg, Al, Zn, Fe, Pb, [H2], Cu

, Ag, Pt

Nonmetals– F2, Cl2, Br2, I2,

More active Less Active

Double Replacement Two compounds react to form two new

compounds. No changes in oxidation numbers occur.

Each cation pairs up with the anion in the other compound.

The “driving force” in these reactions is the removal of at least one pair of ions from solution.

This removal of ions happens with the formation of a precipitate, gas, or molecular species.

When a double replacement reaction doesn’t go to completion, it is a reversible reaction (no ions have been removed).

AX+ BY AY+ BX

How do you know a double replacement reaction occurs? The reactants will contain a(n):

-gas-insoluble precipitate -molecular species

*Remember– on the AP test the reaction will always occur

Common Gases Released (Dbl. Repl.)

H2S Any sulfide plus any acid forms H2S and a salt.

CO2 Any carbonate plus any acid form CO3, water, and a salt.

SO2 Any sulfite plus any acid form SO2, water, and a salt.

NH3 Any ammonium plus a soluble hydroxide form NH3, water, and a salt.

Acid/ Base Reactions (Dbl. Repl.) An acid and a base will react and

form water and a salt. Hydrochloric acid is added to

sodium hydroxide.HCl + NaOH

NaCl + H2O

Hydrolysis (Dbl. Repl.) It is the reverse of neutralization and results when a salt plus a

water molecule yields an acid plus a base. Salt + water acid + base Key things to know about hydrolysis reactions:

– Salts of a strong acid plus a weak base will hydrolyze into an acidic solution.

NH4+ +Cl- +H2O → H+ +Cl- + (NH)4OH – Salts of a weak acid and a strong base will always hydrolyze to

give a basic solution. K+ +F- +H2O → K+ +OH- +HF

– Salts of a strong acid and a strong base will never undergo hydrolysis and therefore make a neutral solution.

Na+ +Cl- +H2O → Na+ +OH- +H+ Cl- – Salts of a weak acid plus salts of a weak base may hydrolyze as

an acid, base, or a neutral solution; the final result depends on the Ka’s and Kb’s of the acids and bases formed during the hydrolysis process.

Disclaimer!! The spectator ions were not removed

Examples of Dbl. Replacement Solutions of potassium bromide

and silver nitrate are mixed.KBr + AgNO3 AgBr + KNO3

A solution of sodium sulfate is added to a solution of hydrochloric acid.Na2SO3 + 2HCl 2NaCl + H2SO3

Hydrolysis Sample Problems Try these:

– An aqueous solution of manganese (II) sulfate undergoes hydrolysis.

– Ammonium fluoride and water are mixed together.

Hydrolysis answers

– MnSO4 + 2H2O → H2SO4 + Mn(OH)2

– NH4F + H2O → HF + NH4OH

Combustion (Organic Reacs.) An organic compound reacts with

O2 to form water and carbon dioxide.

If something is burned there is a combustion reaction.

Methanol is burned in oxygen gas.2CH3OH + 3O2 4H2O +

Addition (Organic Reacs.) A halogen or hydrogen is added

to an alkene or alkyne, breaking apart the double or triple bonds and forming single bonds.

Fluorine is added to etheneF2 + CH2=CH2

CH2F-CH2F

Substitution (Organic Reacs.) An atom attached to a carbon is

removed and something else takes its place.

Bromine is added to methaneBr2 + CH4 CH3Br + HBr

Electrolysis (Redox Reacs.) An electrolysis reaction is a reaction in which

a non-spontaneous redox reaction is brought about by the passage of current under sufficient external electrical potential. The devices in which electrolysis reactions occur are called electrolytic cells.

In theory, E° values (Standard Reduction Potentials) can be used to predict which element will plate out at a particular electrode when various solutions are combined.

(B&L text)

Rules for Predicting Cathode Reactions (Reduction)

When a direct electric current is passed through a water solution of an electrolyte, two possible reduction processes may occur at the cathode.

The cation may be reduced to the corresponding metal.

Mn+ + ne- M(s) (reaction 1) n = (charge of cation)

Water molecule may be reduced to elementary hydrogen

2H2O + 2eˉ H2 + 2OHˉ (reaction 2)

Rules for Predicting Cathode Reactions, contd. For salts containing transition metal

cations, which are relatively easy to reduced compared to water, reaction #1 will occur at the cathode (and the transition metal will plate out).

Mn+ + ne- M(s) If the cation is representative metal,

the water molecules will be easier to reduce compared to the cation, and reaction #2 will occur at the cathode, producing hydrogen gas and hydrogen ions.

2H2O + 2eˉ H2 + 2OHˉ

Rules for Predicting Anode Reaction (oxidation) The oxidation process that occurs at the

anode of an electrolytic cell operating in aqueous solution may be one of two oxidation processes.

The anion may be oxidized to the corresponding nonmetal.

- 2Xˉ X2 + 2eˉ (reaction 1) Water molecules may be oxidized to

elementary oxygen.- HOH ½ O2 + 2H+ + 2eˉ (reaction 2)

Rules for Predicting Anode Reactions, contd. For salts containing iodide, bromide, or

chloride ions, it is usually easier to oxidize these nonmetals rather than water. It will be found that the nonmetal is formed at the anode.

When the anion present is any other ion that is more difficult to oxidize than water, Reaction #2 will occur at the anode producing elementary oxygen and aqueous hydrogen ions.

Example Electrolysis Reactions1. Copper (II) chloride in water

Cu+2 + 2Clˉ Cu + Cl22. Copper (II) sulfate in water

Cu+2 + HOH Cu + ½ O2 + 2H+

3. Sodium chloride in water 2Clˉ + 2HOH H2 + Cl2 + 2OHˉ

4. Sodium sulfate in water 2HOH 2H2 + O2

Metals w/ Multiple Oxidation Levels (Redox Reacs.) These metals can change their oxidation state in a redox

reaction– Antimony (III) or (V)– Bismuth (III) or (IV)– Cerium (III) or (IV)– Chromium (II) or (III)– Cobalt (II) or (III)– Copper (I) or (II)– Gallium (I) or (II) or (III)– Germanium (II) or (IV)– Gold (I) or (III)– Iron (II) or (III)– Lead (II) or (IV)– Mercury (I) or (II)– Nickel (II) or (III)– Thallium (I) or (III)– Thorium (II) or (IV)– Tin (II) or (IV)

Tin (II) sulfate is added to iron (III) sulfateSnSO4 + Fe2(SO4)3

Sn(SO4)2 + 2FeSO4

Complex Ion Reactions Nomenclature is on pages 23-27 of The

Ultimate Chemical Equations Handbook There are a lot of very complicated types of

these reactions, but, for all intensive purposes and for the AP test, you only need to be familiar with those reactions pertaining to ammonia and water.

In a complex ion reaction, ligands will attach to a transition metal ion.

There will usually be twice as many ligands as the metals oxidation number

Complex Ion Reactions, contd. These reactions usually occur in a

concentrated solution of the ligand.

Copper chloride (II) is added to a concentrated solution of ammonia– Cu2+ +NH3 [Cu(NH3)4]2+
