- 1) Nucleons
- 2) Isotopes
- 3) Natural Radioactivity
- 4) Half-Life
- 5) Nuclear Power
- 6) Electron Configuation
- 7) Development of the Atomic Model
9Nucleons
- Protons 1 each, determines identity of
element, mass of 1 amu, determined using atomic
number, nuclear charge - Neutrons no charge, determines identity of
isotope of an element, 1 amu, determined using
mass number - atomic number (amu atomic mass
unit) - 3216S and 3316S are both isotopes of S
- S-32 has 16 protons and 16 neutrons
- S-33 has 16 protons and 17 neutrons
- All atoms of S have a nuclear charge of 16 due
to the 16 protons.
10Isotopes
- Atoms of the same element MUST contain the same
number of protons. - Atoms of the same element can vary in their
numbers of neutrons, therefore many different
atomic masses can exist for any one element.
These are called isotopes. - The atomic mass on the Periodic Table is the
weight-average atomic mass, taking into account
the different isotope masses and their relative
abundance. - Rounding off the atomic mass on the Periodic
Table will tell you what the most common isotope
of that element is.
11Weight-Average Atomic Mass
- WAM (( A of A/100) X Mass of A) (( A of
B/100) X Mass of B) - What is the WAM of an element if its isotope
masses and abundances are - X-200 Mass 200.0 amu, abundance 20.0
- X-204 Mass 204.0 amu, abundance 80.0
- amu atomic mass unit (1.66 10-27
kilograms/amu)
12Most Common Isotope
- The weight-average atomic mass of Zinc is 65.39
amu. What is the most common isotope of Zinc?
Zn-65! - What are the most common isotopes of
- Co Ag
- S Pb
- FACT one atomic mass unit (1.66 10-27
kilograms) is defined as 1/12 of the mass of an
atom of C-12. - This method doesnt always work, but it usually
does. Use it for the Regents exam.
13Natural Radioactivity
- Alpha Decay
- Beta Decay
- Positron Decay
- Gamma Decay
- Charges of Decay Particles
- Natural decay starts with a parent nuclide that
ejects a decay particle to form a daughter
nuclide which is more stable than the parent
nuclide was.
14Alpha Decay
- The nucleus ejects two protons and two neutrons.
The atomic mass decreases by 4, the atomic number
decreases by 2. - 23892U ?
15Beta Decay
- A neutron decays into a proton and an electron.
The electron is ejected from the nucleus as a
beta particle. The atomic mass remains the same,
but the atomic number increases by 1. - 146C ?
16Positron Decay
- A proton is converted into a neutron and a
positron. The positron is ejected by the
nucleus. The mass remains the same, but the
atomic number decreases by 1. - 5326Fe ?
17Gamma Decay
- The nucleus has energy levels just like
electrons, but the involve a lot more energy.
When the nucleus becomes more stable, a gamma ray
may be released. This is a photon of high-energy
light, and has no mass or charge. The atomic
mass and number do not change with gamma. Gamma
may occur by itself, or in conjunction with any
other decay type.
18Charges of Decay Particles
19Half-Life
- Half life is the time it takes for half of the
nuclei in a radioactive sample to undergo decay. - Problem Types
- Going forwards in time
- Going backwards in time
- Radioactive Dating
20Going Forwards in Time
- How many grams of a 10.0 gram sample of I-131
(half-life of 8 days) will remain in 24 days? - HL t/T 24/8 3
- Cut 10.0g in half 3 times 5.00, 2.50, 1.25g
21Going Backwards in Time
- How many grams of a 10.0 gram sample of I-131
(half-life of 8 days) would there have been 24
days ago? - HL t/T 24/8 3
- Double 10.0g 3 times 20.0, 40.0, 80.0 g
22Radioactive Dating
- A sample of an ancient scroll contains 50 of the
original steady-state concentration of C-14. How
old is the scroll? - 50 1 HL
- 1 HL X 5730 y/HL 5730y
23Nuclear Power
- Artificial Transmutation
- Particle Accelerators
- Nuclear Fission
- Nuclear Fusion
24Artificial Transmutation
- 4020Ca _____ -----gt 4019K 11H
- 9642Mo 21H -----gt 10n _____
- Nuclide Bullet --gt New Element Fragment(s)
- The masses and atomic numbers must add up to be
the same on both sides of the arrow.
25Particle Accelerators
- Devices that use electromagnetic fields to
accelerate particle bullets towards target
nuclei to make artificial transmutation possible! - Most of the elements from 93 on up (the
transuranium elements) were created using
particle accelerators. - Particles with no charge cannot be accelerated by
the charged fields.
26Nuclear Fission
- 23592U 10n ? 9236Kr 14156Ba 3 10n
energy - The three neutrons given off can be reabsorbed by
other U-235 nuclei to continue fission as a chain
reaction - A tiny bit of mass is lost (mass defect) and
converted into a huge amount of energy.
27Chain Reaction
28Nuclear Fusion
- 21H 21H ? 42He energy
- Two small, positively-charged nuclei smash
together at high temperatures and pressures to
form one larger nucleus. - A small bit of mass is destroyed and converted
into a huge amount of energy, more than even
fission.
29Electron Configuration
- Basic Configuration
- Valence Electrons
- Electron-Dot (Lewis Dot) Diagrams
- Excited vs. Ground State
- What is Light?
30Basic Configuration
- The number of electrons is determined from the
atomic number. - Look up the basic configuration below the atomic
number on the periodic table. (PEL principal
energy level shell) - He 2 (2 e- in the 1st PEL)
- Na 2-8-1 (2 e- in the 1st PEL, 8 in the 2nd and
1 in the 3rd) - Br 2-8-18-7 (2 e- in the 1st PEL, 8 in the 2nd,
18 in the 3rd and 7 in the 4th)
31Valence Electrons
- The valence electrons are responsible for all
chemical bonding. - The valence electrons are the electrons in the
outermost PEL (shell). - He 2 (2 valence electrons)
- Na 2-8-1 (1 valence electron)
- Br 2-8-18-7 (7 valence electrons)
- The maximum number of valence electrons an atom
can have is EIGHT, called a STABLE OCTET.
32Electron-Dot Diagrams
- The number of dots equals the number of valence
electrons. - The number of unpaired valence electrons in a
nonmetal tells you how many covalent bonds that
atom can form with other nonmetals or how many
electrons it wants to gain from metals to form an
ion. - The number of valence electrons in a metal tells
you how many electrons the metal will lose to
nonmetals to form an ion. Caution May not work
with transition metals. - EXAMPLE DOT DIAGRAMS
33Example Dot Diagrams
Carbon can also have this dot diagram, which
it has when it forms organic compounds.
34Excited vs. Ground State
- Configurations on the Periodic Table are ground
state configurations. - If electrons are given energy, they rise to
higher energy levels (excited state). - If the total number of electrons matches in the
configuration, but the configuration doesnt
match, the atom is in the excited state. - Na (ground, on table) 2-8-1
- Example of excited states 2-7-2, 2-8-0-1, 2-6-3
35What Is Light?
- Light is formed when electrons drop from the
excited state to the ground state. - The lines on a bright-line spectrum come from
specific energy level drops and are unique to
each element. - EXAMPLE SPECTRUM
36EXAMPLE SPECTRUM
This is the bright-line spectrum of hydrogen.
The top numbers represent the PEL (shell) change
that produces the light with that color and the
bottom number is the wavelength of the light (in
nanometers, or 10-9 m). No other element has
the same bright-line spectrum as hydrogen, so
these spectra can be used to identify elements or
mixtures of elements.
37Development of the Atomic Model
- Thompson Model
- Rutherford Gold Foil Experiment and Model
- Bohr Model
- Quantum-Mechanical Model
38Thompson Model
- The atom is a positively charged diffuse mass
with negatively charged electrons stuck in it.
39Rutherford Model
- The atom is made of a small, dense, positively
charged nucleus with electrons at a distance, the
vast majority of the volume of the atom is empty
space.
Alpha particles shot at a thin sheet of
gold foil most go through (empty space).
Some deflect or bounce off (small
charged nucleus).
40Bohr Model
- Electrons orbit around the nucleus in energy
levels (shells). Atomic bright-line spectra was
the clue.
41Quantum-Mechanical Model
- Electron energy levels are wave functions.
- Electrons are found in orbitals, regions of space
where an electron is most likely to be found. - You cant know both where the electron is and
where it is going at the same time. - Electrons buzz around the nucleus like gnats
buzzing around your head.
42Matter
- 1) Properties of Phases
- 2) Types of Matter
- 3) Phase Changes
43Properties of Phases
- Solids Crystal lattice (regular geometric
pattern), vibration motion only - Liquids particles flow past each other but are
still attracted to each other. - Gases particles are small and far apart, they
travel in a straight line until they hit
something, they bounce off without losing any
energy, they are so far apart from each other
that they have effectively no attractive forces
and their speed is directly proportional to the
Kelvin temperature (Kinetic-Molecular Theory,
Ideal Gas Theory)
44Solids
The positive and negative ions alternate in the
ionic crystal lattice of NaCl.
45Liquids
When heated, the ions move faster and
eventually separate from each other to form a
liquid. The ions are loosely held together by
the oppositely charged ions, but the ions are
moving too fast for the crystal lattice to
stay together.
46Gases
Since all gas molecules spread out the same way,
equal volumes of gas under equal conditions of
temperature and pressure will contain equal
numbers of molecules of gas. 22.4 L of any gas
at STP (1.00 atm and 273K) will contain one mole
(6.02 X 1023) gas molecules. Since there is
space between gas molecules, gases are affected
by changes in pressure.
47Types of Matter
- Substances (Homogeneous)
- Elements (cannot be decomposed by chemical
change) Al, Ne, O, Br, H - Compounds (can be decomposed by chemical change)
NaCl, Cu(ClO3)2, KBr, H2O, C2H6 - Mixtures
- Homogeneous Solutions (solvent solute)
- Heterogeneous soil, Italian dressing, etc.
48Elements
- A sample of lead atoms (Pb). All atoms in the
sample consist of lead, so the substance is
homogeneous. - A sample of chlorine atoms (Cl). All atoms in
the sample consist of chlorine, so the substance
is homogeneous.
49Compounds
- Lead has two charges listed, 2 and 4. This is
a sample of lead (II) chloride (PbCl2). Two or
more elements bonded in a whole-number ratio is a
COMPOUND. - This compound is formed from the 4 version of
lead. This is lead (IV) chloride (PbCl4).
Notice how both samples of lead compounds have
consistent composition throughout? Compounds are
homogeneous!
50Mixtures
- A mixture of lead atoms and chlorine atoms. They
exist in no particular ratio and are not
chemically combined with each other. They can be
separated by physical means. - A mixture of PbCl2 and PbCl4 formula units.
Again, they are in no particular ratio to each
other and can be separated without chemical
change.
51Phase Changes
- Phase Change Types
- Phase Change Diagrams
- Heat of Phase Change
- Evaporation
52Phase Change Types
53Phase Change Diagrams
AB Solid Phase BC Melting (S L) CD Liquid
Phase DE Boiling (L G) EF Gas Phase
Notice how temperature remains constant during a
phase change? Thats because the PE is changing,
not the KE.
54Heat of Phase Change
- How many joules would it take to melt 100. g of
H2O (s) at 0oC? - qmHf (100. g)(334 J/g) 33400 J
- How many joules would it take to boil 100. g of
H2O (l) at 100oC? - qmHv (100.g)(2260 J/g) 226000 J
55Evaporation
- When the surface molecules of a gas travel
upwards at a great enough speed to escape. - The pressure a vapor exerts when sealed in a
container at equilibrium is called vapor
pressure, and can be found on Table H. - When the liquid is heated, its vapor pressure
increases. - When the liquids vapor pressure equals the
pressure exerted on it by the outside atmosphere,
the liquid can boil. - If the pressure exerted on a liquid increases,
the boiling point of the liquid increases
(pressure cooker). If the pressure decreases,
the boiling point of the liquid decreases
(special cooking directions for high elevations).

- Electronegativity
- Ionization Energy
59Metals
- Have luster, are malleable and ductile, good
conductors of heat and electricity - Lose electrons to nonmetal atoms to form
positively charged ions in ionic bonds - Large atomic radii compared to nonmetal atoms
- Low electronegativity and ionization energy
- Left side of the periodic table (except H)
60Nonmetals

- Gain electrons from metal atoms to form
negatively charged ions in ionic bonds - Share unpaired valence electrons with other
nonmetal atoms to form covalent bonds and
molecules - Small atomic radii compared to metal atoms
- High electronegativity and ionization energy
- Right side of the periodic table (except Group 18)
61Metalloids
- Found lying on the jagged line between metals and
nonmetals flatly touching the line (except Al and
Po). - Share properties of metals and nonmetals (Si is
shiny like a metal, brittle like a nonmetal and
is a semiconductor).
62Chemistry of Groups
- Group 1 Alkali Metals
- Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals
- Groups 3-11 Transition Elements
- Group 17 Halogens
- Group 18 Noble Gases
- Diatomic Molecules
63Group 1 Alkali Metals
- Most active metals, only found in compounds in
nature - React violently with water to form hydrogen gas
and a strong base 2 Na (s) H2O (l) ? 2 NaOH
(aq) H2 (g) - 1 valence electron
- Form 1 ion by losing that valence electron
- Form oxides like Na2O, Li2O, K2O
64Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals
- Very active metals, only found in compounds in
nature - React strongly with water to form hydrogen gas
and a base - Ca (s) 2 H2O (l) ? Ca(OH)2 (aq) H2 (g)
- 2 valence electrons
- Form 2 ion by losing those valence electrons
- Form oxides like CaO, MgO, BaO
65Groups 3-11 Transition Metals
- Many can form different possible charges of ions
- If there is more than one ion listed, give the
charge as a Roman numeral after the name - Cu1 copper (I) Cu2 copper (II)
- Compounds containing these metals can be colored.
66Group 17 Halogens
- Most reactive nonmetals
- React violently with metal atoms to form halide
compounds 2 Na Cl2 ? 2 NaCl - Only found in compounds in nature
- Have 7 valence electrons
- Gain 1 valence electron from a metal to form -1
ions - Share 1 valence electron with another nonmetal
atom to form one covalent bond.
67Group 18 Noble Gases
- Are completely nonreactive since they have eight
valence electrons, making a stable octet. - Kr and Xe can be forced, in the laboratory, to
give up some valence electrons to react with
fluorine. - Since noble gases do not naturally bond to any
other elements, one atom of noble gas is
considered to be a molecule of noble gas. This
is called a monatomic molecule. Ne represents an
atom of Ne and a molecule of Ne.
68Diatomic Molecules
- Br, I, N, Cl, H, O and F are so reactive that
they exist in a more chemically stable state when
they covalently bond with another atom of their
own element to make two-atom, or diatomic
molecules. - Br2, I2, N2, Cl2, H2, O2 and F2
- The decomposition of water 2 H2O ? 2 H2 O2
69Electronegativity
- An atoms attraction to electrons in a chemical
bond. - F has the highest, at 4.0
- Fr has the lowest, at 0.7
- If two atoms that are different in EN (END) from
each other by 1.7 or more collide and bond (like
a metal atom and a nonmetal atom), the one with
the higher electronegativity will pull the
valence electrons away from the atom with the
lower electronegativity to form a (-) ion. The
atom that was stripped of its valence electrons
forms a () ion. - If the two atoms have an END of less than 1.7,
they will share their unpaired valence
electronscovalent bond!
70Ionization Energy
- The energy required to remove the most loosely
held valence electron from an atom in the gas
phase. - High electronegativity means high ionization
energy because if an atom is more attracted to
electrons, it will take more energy to remove
those electrons. - Metals have low ionization energy. They lose
electrons easily to form () charged ions. - Nonmetals have high ionization energy but high
electronegativity. They gain electrons easily to
form (-) charged ions when reacted with metals,
or share unpaired valence electrons with other
nonmetal atoms.
71Ions
- Ions are charged particles formed by the gain or
loss of electrons. - Metals lose electrons (oxidation) to form ()
charged cations. - Nonmetals gain electrons (reduction) to form (-)
charged anions. - Atoms will gain or lose electrons in such a way
that they end up with 8 valence electrons (stable
octet). - The exceptions to this are H, Li, Be and B, which
are not large enough to support 8 valence
electrons. They must be satisfied with 2 (Li,
Be, B) or 0 (H).
72Metal Ions (Cations)
- Na 2-8-1
- Na1 2-8
- Ca 2-8-8-2
- Ca2 2-8-8
- Al 2-8-3
- Al3 2-8
Note that when the atom loses its valence
electron, the next lower PEL becomes the valence
PEL. Notice how the dot diagrams for metal
ions lack dots! Place brackets around the
element symbol and put the charge on the upper
right outside!
73Nonmetal Ions (Anions)
Note how the ions all have 8 valence electrons.
Also note the gained electrons as red dots.
Nonmetal ion dot diagrams show 8 dots, with
brackets around the dot diagram and the charge of
the ion written to the upper right side outside
the brackets.
- F 2-7
- F-1 2-8
- O 2-6
- O-2 2-8
- N 2-5
- N-3 2-8
74Ionic Bonding
- If two atoms that are different in EN (END) from
each other by 1.7 or more collide and bond (like
a metal atom and a nonmetal atom), the one with
the higher electronegativity will pull the
valence electrons away from the atom with the
lower electronegativity to form a (-) ion. The
atom that was stripped of its valence electrons
forms a () ion. - The oppositely charged ions attract to form the
bond. It is a surface bond that can be broken by
melting or dissolving in water. - Ionic bonding forms ionic crystal lattices, not
molecules.
75Example of Ionic Bonding
76Covalent Bonding
- If two nonmetal atoms have an END of 1.7 or less,
they will share their unpaired valence electrons
to form a covalent bond. - A particle made of covalently bonded nonmetal
atoms is called a molecule. - If the END is between 0 and 0.4, the sharing of
electrons is equal, so there are no charged ends.
This is NONPOLAR covalent bonding. - If the END is between 0.5 and 1.7, the sharing of
electrons is unequal. The atom with the higher
EN will be d- and the one with the lower EN will
be d charged. This is a POLAR covalent bonding.
(d means partial)
77Examples of Covalent Bonding
78Metallic Bonding
- Metal atoms of the same element bond with each
other by sharing valence electrons that they lose
to each other. - This is a lot like an atomic game of hot
potato, where metal kernals (the atom inside the
valence electrons) sit in a crystal lattice,
passing valence electrons back and forth between
each other). - Since electrons can be forced to travel in a
certain direction within the metal, metals are
very good at conducting electricity in all phases.

80Types of Compounds
- Ionic made of metal and nonmetal ions. Form an
ionic crystal lattice when in the solid phase.
Ions separate when melted or dissolved in water,
allowing electrical conduction. Examples NaCl,
K2O, CaBr2 - Molecular made of nonmetal atoms bonded to form
a distinct particle called a molecule. Bonds do
not break upon melting or dissolving, so
molecular substances do not conduct electricity.
EXCEPTION Acids HA- (aq) ionize in water to
form H3O and A-, so they do conduct. - Network made up of nonmetal atoms bonded in a
seemingly endless matrix of covalent bonds with
no distinguishable molecules. Very high m.p.,
dont conduct.
81Ionic Compounds
82Molecular Compounds
83Network Solids
Network solids are made of nonmetal atoms
covalently bonded together to form large crystal
lattices. No individual molecules can be
distinguished. Examples include C (diamond) and
SiO2 (quartz). Corundum (Al2O3) also forms
these, even though Al is considered a metal.
Network solids are among the hardest materials
known. They have extremely high melting points
and do not conduct electricity.
84Formula Writing
- The charge of the () ion and the charge of the
(-) ion must cancel out to make the formula. Use
subscripts to indicate how many atoms of each
element there are in the compound, no subscript
if there is only one atom of that element. - Na1 and Cl-1 NaCl
- Ca2 and Br-1 CaBr2
- Al3 and O-2 Al2O3
- Zn2 and PO4-3 Zn3(PO4)2
- Try these problems!
85Formulas to Write
- Ba2 and N-3
- NH41 and SO4-2
- Li1 and S-2
- Cu2 and NO3-1
- Al3 and CO3-2
- Fe3 and Cl-1
- Pb4 and O-2
- Pb2 and O-2
86Formula Naming
- Compounds are named from the elements or
polyatomic ions that form them. - KCl potassium chloride
- Na2SO4 sodium sulfate
- (NH4)2S ammonium sulfide
- AgNO3 silver nitrate
- Notice all the metals listed here only have one
charge listed? So what do you do if a metal has
more than one charge listed? Take a peek!

- FeO iron (II) oxide MnS manganese (II)
sulfide - Fe2O3 iron (III) oxide MnS2 manganese (IV)
sulfide - The Roman numeral is the charge of the metal ion!
88Empirical Formulas
- Ionic formulas represent the simplest whole
number mole ratio of elements in a compound. - Ca3N2 means a 32 ratio of Ca ions to N ions in
the compound. - Many molecular formulas can be simplified to
empirical formulas - Ethane (C2H6) can be simplified to CH3. This is
the empirical formulathe ratio of C to H in the
molecule. - All ionic compounds have empirical formulas.
89Molecular Formulas
- The count of the actual number of atoms of each
element in a molecule. - H2O a molecule made of two H atoms and one O
atom covalently bonded together. - C2H6O A molecule made of two C atoms, six H
atoms and one O atom covalently bonded together. - Molecular formulas are whole-number multiples of
empirical formulas - H2O 1 X (H2O)
- C8H16 8 X (CH2)
- Calculating Molecular Formulas
90Types of Chemical Reactions
- Redox Reactions driven by the loss (oxidation)
and gain (reduction) of electrons. Any species
that does not change charge is called the
spectator ion. - Synthesis
- Decomposition
- Single Replacement
- Ion Exchange Reaction driven by the formation
of an insoluble precipitate. The ions that
remain dissolved throughout are the spectator
ions. - Double Replacement
91Synthesis
- Two elements combine to form a compound
- 2 Na O2 ? Na2O
- Same reaction, with charges added in
- 2 Na0 O20 ? Na21O-2
- Na0 is oxidized (loses electrons), is the
reducing agent - O20 is reduced (gains electrons), is the
oxidizing agent - Electrons are transferred from the Na0 to the
O20. - No spectator ions, there are only two elements
here.
92Decomposition
- A compound breaks down into its original
elements. - Na2O ? 2 Na O2
- Same reaction, with charges added in
- Na21O-2 ? 2 Na0 O20
- O-2 is oxidized (loses electrons), is the
reducing agent - Na1 is reduced (gains electrons), is the
oxidizing agent - Electrons are transferred from the O-2 to the
Na1. - No spectator ions, there are only two elements
here.
93Single Replacement
- An element replaces the same type of element in a
compound. - Ca 2 KCl ? CaCl2 2 K
- Same reaction, with charges added in
- Ca0 2 K1Cl-1 ? Ca2Cl2-1 2 K0
- Ca0 is oxidized (loses electrons), is the
reducing agent - K1 is reduced (gains electrons), is the
oxidizing agent - Electrons are transferred from the Ca0 to the
K1. - Cl-1 is the spectator ion, since its charge
doesnt change.
94Double Replacement
- The () ion of one compound bonds to the (-) ion
of another compound to make an insoluble
precipitate. The compounds must both be
dissolved in water to break the ionic bonds
first. - NaCl (aq) AgNO3 (aq) ? NaNO3 (aq) AgCl (s)
- The Cl-1 and Ag1 come together to make the
insoluble precipitate, which looks like snow in
the test tube. - No species change charge, so this is not a redox
reaction. - Since the Na1 and NO3-1 ions remain dissolved
throughout the reaction, they are the spectator
ions. - How do identify the precipitate?
95Identifying the Precipitate
- The precipitate is the compound that is
insoluble. AgCl is a precipitate because Cl- is
a halide. Halides are soluble, except when
combined with Ag and others.
96Balancing Chemical Reactions
- Balance one element or ion at a time
- Use a pencil
- Use coefficients only, never change formulas
- Revise if necessary
- The coefficient multiplies everything in the
formula by that amount - 2 Ca(NO3)2 means that you have 2 Ca, 4 N and 12
O. - Examples for you to try!
97Reactions to Balance
- ___NaCl ? ___Na ___Cl2
- ___Al ___O2 ? ___Al2O3
- ___SO3 ? ___SO2 ___O2
- ___Ca ___HNO3 ? ___Ca(NO3)2 ___H2
- __FeCl3 __Pb(NO3)2 ? __Fe(NO3)3 __PbCl2
98Attractive Forces
- Molecules have partially charged ends. The d
end of one molecule attracts to the d- end of
another molecule. - Ions are charged () or (-). Positively charged
ions attract other to form ionic bonds, a type of
attractive force. - Since partially charged ends result in weaker
attractions than fully charged ends, ionic
compounds generally have much higher melting
points than molecular compounds. - Determining Polarity of Molecules
- Hydrogen Bond Attractions
99Determining Polarity ofMolecules
--------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
100Hydrogen BondAttractions
A hydrogen bond attraction is a very strong
attractive force between the H end of one polar
molecule and the N, O or F end of another polar
molecule. This attraction is so strong that
water is a liquid at a temperature where most
compounds that are much heavier than water (like
propane, C3H8) are gases. This also gives water
its surface tension and its ability to form a
meniscus in a narrow glass tube.

- 5) Le Châteliers Principle
- 6) Solubility Curves
130Reaction Rate
- Reactions happen when reacting particles collide
with sufficient energy (activation energy) and at
the proper angle. - Anything that makes more collisions in a given
time will make the reaction rate increase. - Increasing temperature
- Increasing concentration (pressure for gases)
- Increasing surface area (solids)
- Adding a catalyst makes a reaction go faster by
removing steps from the mechanism and lowering
the activation energy without getting used up in
the process.
131Heat of Reaction

products, which have a certain amount of PE
stored in their bonds (Heat of Products) - Hproducts - Hreactants DH

138Equilibrium
When the rate of the forward reaction equals the
rate of the reverse reaction.
139Examples of Equilibrium
- Solution Equilibrium when a solution is
saturated, the rate of dissolving equals the rate
of precipitating. - NaCl (s) ? Na1 (aq) Cl-1 (aq)
- Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium when a liquid is
trapped with air in a container, the liquid
evaporates until the rate of evaporation equals
the rate of condensation. - H2O (l) ? H2O (g)
- Phase equilibrium At the melting point, the
rate of solid turning to liquid equals the rate
of liquid turning back to solid. - H2O (s) ? H2O (l)
140Le Châteliers Principle
- If a system at equilibrium is stressed, the
equilibrium will shift in a direction that
relieves that stress. - A stress is a factor that affects reaction rate.
Since catalysts affect both reaction rates
equally, catalysts have no effect on a system
already at equilibrium. - Equilibrium will shift AWAY from what is added
- Equilibrium will shift TOWARDS what is removed.
- This is because the shift will even out the
change in reaction rate and bring the system back
to equilibrium - NEXT
141Steps to Relieving Stress
- 1) Equilibrium is subjected to a STRESS.
- 2) System SHIFTS towards what is removed from the
system or away from what is added. - The shift results in a CHANGE OF CONCENTRATION
for both the products and the reactants. - If the shift is towards the products, the
concentration of the products will increase and
the concentration of the reactants will decrease. - If the shift is towards the reactants, the
concentration of the reactants will increase and
the concentration of the products will decrease. - NEXT
142Examples
- For the reaction N2(g) 3H2(g) ? 2 NH3(g) heat
- Adding N2 will cause the equilibrium to shift
RIGHT, resulting in an increase in the
concentration of NH3 and a decrease in the
concentration of N2 and H2. - Removing H2 will cause a shift to the LEFT,
resulting in a decrease in the concentration of
NH3 and an increase in the concentration of N2
and H2. - Increasing the temperature will cause a shift to
the LEFT, same results as the one above. - Decreasing the pressure will cause a shift to the
LEFT, because there is more gas on the left side,
and making more gas will bring the pressure back
up to its equilibrium amount. - Adding a catalyst will have no effect, so no
shift will happen.
143Solubility Curves
- Solubility the maximum quantity of solute that
can be dissolved in a given quantity of solvent
at a given temperature to make a saturated
solution. - Saturated a solution containing the maximum
quantity of solute that the solvent can hold.
The limit of solubility. - Supersaturated the solution is holding more
than it can theoretically hold OR there is excess
solute which precipitates out. True
supersaturation is rare. - Unsaturated There are still solvent molecules
available to dissolve more solute, so more can
dissolve. - How ionic solutes dissolve in water polar water
molecules attach to the ions and tear them off
the crystal.
144Solubility
Solubility go to the temperature and up to the
desired line, then across to the Y-axis. This is
how many g of solute are needed to make a
saturated solution of that solute in 100g of H2O
at that particular temperature. At 40oC, the
solubility of KNO3 in 100g of water is 64 g. In
200g of water, double that amount. In 50g of
water, cut it in half.
145Supersaturated
If 120 g of NaNO3 are added to 100g of water at
30oC 1) The solution would be SUPERSATURATED,
because there is more solute dissolved than the
solubility allows 2) The extra 25g would
precipitate out 3) If you heated the solution up
by 24oC (to 54oC), the excess solute would
dissolve.
146Unsaturated
If 80 g of KNO3 are added to 100g of water at
60oC 1) The solution would be UNSATURATED,
because there is less solute dissolved than the
solubility allows 2) 26g more can be added to
make a saturated solution 3) If you cooled the
solution down by 12oC (to 48oC), the solution
would become saturated
147How Ionic Solutes Dissolve in Water
Water solvent molecules attach to the ions (H end
to the Cl-, O end to the Na)
Water solvent holds the ions apart and keeps the
ions from coming back together

elements. - Na0, Li0, H20. S0, N20, C600
- The formula of a compound is such that the
charges of the elements making up the compound
all add up to zero. - The symbol and charge of an element or polyatomic
ion is called a SPECIES. - Determine the charge of each species in the
following compounds - NaCl KNO3 CuSO4 Fe2(CO3)3
163Identifying OX, RD, SI Species
- Ca0 2 H1Cl-1 ? Ca2Cl-12 H20
- Oxidation loss of electrons. The species
becomes more positive in charge. For example,
Ca0 ? Ca2, so Ca0 is the species that is
oxidized. - Reduction gain of electrons. The species
becomes more negative in charge. For example,
H1 ? H0, so the H1 is the species that is
reduced. - Spectator Ion no change in charge. The species
does not gain or lose any electrons. For
example, Cl-1 ? Cl-1, so the Cl-1 is the
spectator ion.
164Agents
- Ca0 2 H1Cl-1 ? Ca2Cl-12 H20
- Since Ca0 is being oxidized and H1 is being
reduced, the electrons must be going from the Ca0
to the H1. - Since Ca0 would not lose electrons (be oxidized)
if H1 werent there to gain them, H1 is the
cause, or agent, of Ca0s oxidation. H1 is the
oxidizing agent. - Since H1 would not gain electrons (be reduced)
if Ca0 werent there to lose them, Ca0 is the
cause, or agent, of H1s reduction. Ca0 is the
reducing agent.
165Writing Half-Reactions
- Ca0 2 H1Cl-1 ? Ca2Cl-12 H20
- Oxidation Ca0 ? Ca2 2e-
- Reduction 2H1 2e- ? H20

- __Al0 __Cu2 ? __Al3 __Cu0
168Activity Series
- For metals, the higher up the chart the element
is, the more likely it is to be oxidized. This
is because metals like to lose electrons, and the
more active a metallic element is, the more
easily it can lose them. - For nonmetals, the higher up the chart the
element is,
