Reaction Stoichiometry
• the numerical relationships between chemical
amounts in a reaction is called stoichiometry
• the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation
specify the relative amounts in moles of each of the
substances involved in the reaction

Solutions
• when table salt is mixed with water, it seems to disappear,
or become a liquid – the mixture is homogeneous
9 the salt is still there, as you can tell from the taste, or simply
boiling away the water
• homogeneous mixtures are called solutions
• the component of the solution that changes state is called
the solute
• the component that keeps its state is called the solvent
9 if both components start in the same state, the major component
is the solvent

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 16

Describing Solutions
• since solutions are mixtures, the composition can
vary from one sample to another
9pure substances have constant composition
9salt water samples from different seas or lakes have
different amounts of salt
• so to describe solutions accurately, we must
describe how much of each component is present
9we saw that with pure substances, we can describe
them with a single name because all samples identical

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 17

Solution Concentration
• qualitatively, solutions are often
described as dilute or
concentrated
• dilute solutions have a small
amount of solute compared to
solvent
• concentrated solutions have a
large amount of solute
compared to solvent
• quantitatively, the relative
amount of solute in the solution
is called the concentration

Molarity

• used because it describes how many molecules
of solute in each liter of solution

Using Molarity in Calculations
• molarity shows the relationship between the
moles of solute and liters of solution
• If a sugar solution concentration is 2.0 M, then
1 liter of solution contains 2.0 moles of sugar
92 liters = 4.0 moles sugar
90.5 liters = 1.0 mole sugar
• 1 L solution : 2 moles sugar
2 mol sugar 1 L solution
1 L solution 2 mol sugar

• Check Check: since each L has only 0.125 mol NaOH,
it makes sense that 0.255 mol should
require a little more than 2 L

Dilution
• often, solutions are stored as concentrated stock
solutions
• to make solutions of lower concentrations from these
stock solutions, more solvent is added
9 the amount of solute doesn’t change, just the volume of
solution
moles solute in solution 1 = moles solute in solution 2
• the concentrations and volumes of the stock and new
solutions are inversely proportional
M1·V1 = M2·V2

Solution Stoichiometry

liters of solution, it can be used to convert
between amount of reactants and/or products in
a chemical reaction

the molarity of Pb(NO3)2 > KCl, the volume of
KCl should be more than 2x volume Pb(NO3)2

What Happens When a Solute Dissolves?
• there are attractive forces between the solute particles
holding them together
• there are also attractive forces between the solvent
molecules
• when we mix the solute with the solvent, there are
attractive forces between the solute particles and the
solvent molecules
• if the attractions between solute and solvent are strong
enough, the solute will dissolve

Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes


• materials that dissolve
in water to form a
solution that will
conduct electricity are
called electrolytes
• materials that dissolve
in water to form a
solution that will not
conduct electricity are
called nonelectrolytes

10
Molecular View of
Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes
• in order to conduct electricity, a material must have
charged particles that are able to flow
• electrolyte solutions all contain ions dissolved in the
water
9 ionic compounds are electrolytes because they all dissociate
into their ions when they dissolve
• nonelectrolyte solutions contain whole molecules
dissolved in the water
9 generally, molecular compounds do not ionize when they
dissolve in water
¾ the notable exception being molecular acids

Acids
• acids are molecular compounds that ionize when they
dissolve in water
9 the molecules are pulled apart by their attraction for the water
9 when acids ionize, they form H+ cations and anions
• the percentage of molecules that ionize varies from one
acid to another
• acids that ionize virtually 100% are called strong acids
HCl(aq) → H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
• acids that only ionize a small percentage are called
weak acids

11
Strong and Weak Electrolytes
• strong electrolytes are materials that dissolve
completely as ions
9 ionic compounds and strong acids
9 their solutions conduct electricity well
• weak electrolytes are materials that dissolve mostly as
molecules, but partially as ions
9 weak acids
9 their solutions conduct electricity, but not well
• when compounds containing a polyatomic ion dissolve,
the polyatomic ion stays together

Solubility of Ionic Compounds


• some ionic compounds, like NaCl, dissolve very well in
water at room temperature
• other ionic compounds, like AgCl, dissolve hardly at all
in water at room temperature
• compounds that dissolve in a solvent are said to be
soluble, while those that do not are said to be insoluble
9 NaCl is soluble in water, AgCl is insoluble in water
9 the degree of solubility depends on the temperature
9 even insoluble compounds dissolve, just not enough to be
meaningful

When Will a Salt Dissolve?
• Predicting whether a compound will dissolve in
water is not easy
• The best way to do it is to do some experiments
to test whether a compound will dissolve in
water, then develop some rules based on those
experimental results

Titration
• often in the lab, a solution’s concentration is
determined by reacting it with another material
and using stoichiometry – this process is called
titration
• in the titration, the unknown solution is added
to a known amount of another reactant until
the reaction is just completed, at this point,
called the endpoint, the reactants are in their
stoichiometric ratio
9 the unknown solution is added slowly from an
instrument called a burette
¾ a long glass tube with precise volume markings that
allows small additions of solution
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 58

Acid-Base Titrations
• the difficulty is determining when there has been just
enough titrant added to complete the reaction
9 the titrant is the solution in the burette
• in acid-base titrations, because both the reactant and
product solutions are colorless, a chemical is added that
changes color when the solution undergoes large
changes in acidity/alkalinity
9 the chemical is called an indicator
• at the endpoint of an acid-base titration, the number of
moles of H+ equals the number of moles of OH−

Titration

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 60

20
Titration
The base solution is the
titrant in the burette.
As the base is added to
the acid, the H+ reacts with
the OH– to form water.
But there is still excess
acid present so the color
does not change.
At the titration’s endpoint,
just enough base has been
added to neutralize all the
acid. At this point the
indicator changes color.

• Check the Solution:


HCl solution = 0.125 M
The units of the answer, M, are correct.
The magnitude of the answer makes sense since
the neutralization takes less HCl solution than
NaOH solution, so the HCl should be more concentrated.

Gas Evolving Reactions


• Some reactions form a gas directly from the ion
exchange
K2S(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → K2SO4(aq) + H2S(g)
• Other reactions form a gas by the decomposition of one
of the ion exchange products into a gas and water
K2SO3(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → K2SO4(aq) + H2SO3(aq)
H2SO3 → H2O(l) + SO2(g)

Other Patterns in Reactions


• the precipitation, acid-base, and gas evolving
reactions all involved exchanging the ions in
the solution
• other kinds of reactions involve transferring
electrons from one atom to another – these are
called oxidation-reduction reactions
9also known as redox reactions
9many involve the reaction of a substance with O2(g)
4 Fe(s) + 3 O2(g) → 2 Fe2O3(s)

2 Na → 2 Na+ + 2 e−

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach Cl2 + 2 e− → 2 Cl− 77

Reactions of Metals with Nonmetals


• consider the following reactions:
4 Na(s) + O2(g) → 2 Na2O(s)
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2 NaCl(s)
• the reaction involves a metal reacting with a nonmetal
• in addition, both reactions involve the conversion of
free elements into ions
4 Na(s) + O2(g) → 2 Na+2O– (s)
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2 Na+Cl–(s)

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 78

26
Oxidation and Reduction
• in order to convert a free element into an ion, the
atoms must gain or lose electrons
9 of course, if one atom loses electrons, another must
accept them
• reactions where electrons are transferred from one
atom to another are redox reactions
• atoms that lose electrons are being oxidized, atoms
that gain electrons are being reduced
Ger
2 Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2 Na+Cl–(s)
Na → Na+ + 1 e– oxidation
Cl2 + 2 e– → 2 Cl– reduction
Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach Leo 79

Electron Bookkeeping
• for reactions that are not metal + nonmetal, or do
not involve O2, we need a method for determining
how the electrons are transferred
• chemists assign a number to each element in a
reaction called an oxidation state that allows them
to determine the electron flow in the reaction
9 even though they look like them, oxidation states are
not ion charges!
¾oxidation states are imaginary charges assigned based on a
set of rules
¾ion charges are real, measurable charges

Tro, Chemistry: A Molecular Approach 80

Rules for Assigning Oxidation States


• rules are in order of priority
1. free elements have an oxidation state = 0
9 Na = 0 and Cl2 = 0 in 2 Na(s) + Cl2(g)
2. monatomic ions have an oxidation state equal
to their charge
9 Na = +1 and Cl = -1 in NaCl
3. (a) the sum of the oxidation states of all the
atoms in a compound is 0
9 Na = +1 and Cl = -1 in NaCl, (+1) + (-1) = 0

27
Rules for Assigning Oxidation States
3. (b) the sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms in
a polyatomic ion equals the charge on the ion
9 N = +5 and O = -2 in NO3–, (+5) + 3(-2) = -1

4. (a) Group I metals have an oxidation state of +1 in all


their compounds
9 Na = +1 in NaCl

all their compounds

Oxidation–Reduction
• oxidation and reduction must occur simultaneously
9 if an atom loses electrons another atom must take them
• the reactant that reduces an element in another reactant
is called the reducing agent
9 the reducing agent contains the element that is oxidized
• the reactant that oxidizes an element in another reactant
is called the oxidizing agent
9 the oxidizing agent contains the element that is reduced
