Chem

QuestionAnswer
Cation positively charged ion Forms when an atom loses electrons
anion negatively charged ion Forms when an atom gains electrons
ionic bonds and Lattices When positive and negative charges are near each other there is an attractive force described by Coulomb’s Law
Empirical formula Gives the smallest whole number ratio of ions or atoms in the compound The smallest number of ions necessary to form a compound is a formula unit
Predicting formulas for ionic compounds To form a neutral ionic compound the positive and negative charges of the cation and anion must be equal.
Hydrates An ionic compound that has water molecules trapped in the crystal lattice is a hydrate.
covalent compounds Form when two or more atoms share electrons to form bonds Water, H2O, is an example of a covalent compound. Molecular formulas are used to represent covalent compounds Molecular formulas provide the actual number of atoms in the molecule
Binary covalent compounds Binary Covalent Compounds Contain atoms from two different elements Named the same way as ionic compounds Use the full name of the first atom and the stem name of the second atom with suffix -ide Use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms present
solute Substance that is dissolved
solvent Substance in which the solute is dissolved
solution Refers to the solute and the solvent
Ionization Occurs when ionic compounds dissolve in water; the ions dissociate from each other and become solvated by water molecules
Electrolyte solution An electrically conducting solution; the separated cations and anions carry charge to form an electrically conducting solution
acids molecular compounds that usually contain a hydrogen atom and a species that can form a stable anion Acids ionize when dissolved in water to produce a hydrogen cation, called the proton and a stable anion Form an electrolyte solution
Binary acids Consist of the hydrogen atom and a single nonmetal atom, usually a halogen
oxoacids Consist of the hydrogen atom (sometimes more than one) and an oxyanion
Elemental analysis Technique for determining Elements in a compound Percent composition Empirical formula Empirical formula mass Mass spectrometry Determines the molecular formula mass
Mass spectrometry determines molecular mass of compound Ionizing chamber converts molecule into ion Electric field accelerates ions Magnetic field deflects ion to an extent proportional to their mass; lighter
Balanced chemical equations Represent chemical changes and include o Reactants o Reaction arrow o Products o Stoichiometric coefficients
Stoichiometric coefficients Numbers before each species in the chemical reaction Used to balance chemical equations Shows law of conservation of mass has been followed relate amounts of reactants to amounts of products
Balancing equations dd stoichiometric coefficients to a chemical equation to provide atom balance
Molecular equations write ions together as compounds
ionic equations show dissociated ions as separate species
precipitations reaction two aqueous solutions combine to produce to create a solid product.
precipitate The solid formed in the reaction
complete ionic equation can be written when all of the ions are shown
spectator ions an ion that is present in a solution but not directly involved in a chemical change
net ionic equations an equation in which the only ions shown are those directly involved in the chemical change, and spectator ions are omitted
bases a compound that produces OH- ions in water; a compound that accepts H+ ions
Neutralization reactions A reaction in which an acid and a base combine to produce water and an ionic compound( called salt)
Metal displacement reaction a reaction between two metals in which one metal is oxidized to its ionic form while the other metal ion is reduced to its elemental form.
activity series a table that lists metals by their activity that is used to predict whether metal displacement reactions will occur.
Limiting reagent calculations Identify limiting reagent Determine the maximum amount of product possible
Limiting reagent Determines the amount of product that can be produced in a reaction completely consumed in the reaction
excess reagent not completely consumed in the reaction
Molarity and Solution Stoichiometry Relate molarity to moles of solute and volume of solution Solve stoichiometry problems that involve solution
Gravimetric Analysis Technique for determining the concentration of ions in solution Use mass of precipitate in precipitation reaction to determine concentration of reactant
Theorietical yield Maximum amount of product that can be obtained from the given amounts of starting materials
actual yield Amount of product obtained from the reaction
percent yield actual yield divided by theoretical yield times 100
How to solve for molarity M={moles of solute}\{liters of solution} Steps: 1. Find the moles of solute. 2. Convert mL to L by dividing by 1,000. 3. Divide moles by liters.
Solution Stoichiometry Write and balance the equation. Make sure there are the same number of each type of atom on both sides. The coefficients give you the mole ratio. Convert mL to L. Divide milliliters by 1,000. Find moles using molarity. Multiply molarity by liters
Thermodynamics study of relationship between energy and temperature changes
Thermochemistry Part of thermodynamics that deals with chemical changes
Potential energy stored energy Energy that results from position in a field of force
Kinetic energy energy in motion
energy changes work heat
exothermic reaction system releases heat to surroundings 2C3H18(l)+25O2(g)--> 16CO2(g)+18H2O(g)+Heat
Endo thermic reaction system absorbs heat from surroundings Heat+H2O(s)-->H2O(l)
system reaction or process being studied
surroundings everything around the system
pressure-volume work w=-Pchange in V
enthalpy(H) measure of the total heat content of a system
Change in enthalpy gain or loss of heat energy as the result of a chemical or physical change
First law of thermodynamics Energy can neither be created nor destroyed Energy that is lost by the system is gained by the surroundings Energy that is gained by the system is lost by the surroundings
Specific heat capacity also called specific heat Amount of heat required to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance, 1 degree celcius
NH+4 amonium ion
NO-2 nitrite ion
NO-3 nitrate ion
SO2-3 sulfite ion
