 THE THEORY of ACIDS and ALKALIS and a few technical terms: o Acids are substances that form hydrogen ions (H+(aq)) when dissolved in water eg hydrochloric acid HCl gives H+(aq) and Cl-(aq) ions, sulphuric acid H2SO4 gives 2H+(aq) and SO42- ions and nitric acid HNO3 gives H+(aq) and NO3-(aq) ions. o Alkalis are substances that form hydroxide ions (OH-(aq)) in water eg sodium hydroxide NaOH gives Na+(aq) and OH-(aq) ions, calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 gives Ca2+(aq) and 2OH-(aq) ions. Note: an alkali is a base soluble in water. o In water, there are trace quantities of H+ and OH- ions BUT they are of equal concentration and so water is neutral. o In acid solutions there are more H+ ions than OH- ions. o In alkaline solution there are more OH- ions than H+ ions. o Acids dissociate to different extents in aqueous solution. Acids that

dissociate to a large extent are strong electrolytes and strong acids. In contrast, acids that dissociate only to a small extent are weak acids and weak electrolytes In a similar manner, bases can be strong or weak depending on the extent to which they dissociate and produce OH– ions in solution. Most metal hydroxides are strong electrolytes and strong bases. Ammonia, NH3, is a weak electrolyte and weak base.

o

BASES eg oxides and hydroxides are substances that react and neutralise acids to form salts and water. Bases which are soluble in water are called alkalis.

Bases
Most bases are oxides or hydroxides of metals. Not all bases fit into these categories, however (e.g. ammonia). Some examples of bases are shown below: Name Sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) Calcium hydroxide Magnesium oxide (magnesia) Calcium carbonate Sodium hydrogencarbonate (bicarbonate) Ammonia Formula NaOH Ca(OH)2 MgO CaCO3 NaHCO3 NH3 Where is it found? Oven cleaners, in the lab. Soil lime, limewater Indigestion tablets Limestone, soil lime Baking powder Cleaning fluids, in the lab.

 Soluble bases are known as alkalis.  Aqueous solutions of alkalis contain hydroxide ions, OH-.

Reactions of Acids  With metals
Metals above copper in the reactivity series will react with acids, giving off hydrogen gas. The metal dissolves, forming a salt. METAL + ACID  SALT + HYDROGEN Mg(s) + H2SO4(aq)  MgSO4(aq) + H2(g)

e.g.

This is why acids corrode metals, and must be stored in glass containers.

 With bases (metal oxides and hydroxides)
The base dissolves in the acid and neutralises it. A salt is formed. ACID + BASE  SALT + WATER H2SO4(aq) + CuO(s)  CuSO4(aq) + H2O(l)

e.g.

 With metal carbonates
With metal carbonates, much effervescence occurs when they react with acids, as carbon dioxide gas is released too. ACID + CARBONATE  SALT + WATER + CARBON DIOXIDE 2HCl(aq) + CaCO3(s)  CaCl2(s) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Neutralisation
Acids are neutralised by bases. If you have indigestion (too much acid in the stomach), you may take a tablet containing a base (e.g. magnesia, MgO). A farmer may spread lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2) on fields to make the soil less acidic. What happens during a neutralisation reaction? ACID + ALKALI  SALT + WATER e.g. hydrochloric acid + sodium hydroxide  sodium chloride + water HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq)  NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) To understand why water is formed, we must consider what happens to the ions that are present in the reacting solutions: H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)  Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) (from HCl) (from NaOH) The H+ ions from the acid combine with the OH- ions from the alkali – we can show this by writing a simple ionic equation: H+(aq) + OH-(aq)  H2O(l) Water is formed. So if equal amounts of acid and alkali are mixed, the resulting solution will be neutral. The Na+ and Cl- ions do not take part in the neutralisation reaction, they just remain in solution - they are spectator ions. It is unnecessary to include them in the ionic equation. When an acid and a base are mixed in stoichiometric proportions, their acidic and basic properties disappear as the result of a neutralization reaction.

Because the salts that form in neutralization reaction are generally strong electrolytes, we can write the neutralization reaction as an ionic equation.

When the spectator ions are removed, the net ionic equation is revealed.

www.studyguide.pk

This net ionic equation is the same for the neutralization reaction of any strong acid and strong base. For the reaction of a weak acid with a strong base, a similar neutralization occurs. Consider the neutralization of HF with KOH. HF(aq) + KOH(aq) KF(aq) + H2O(l) K+(aq) + F-(aq) + molecular equation ionic equation net ionic equation

HF(aq) + K+(aq) + OH-(aq) H2O(l) HF(aq) + OH-(aq)

F-(aq) + H2O(l)

The weak acid HF is written as a molecular formula because its dissociation is incomplete.

Formation of H30+ion
The hydrogen ion H+(aq) does not exist as such in aqueous solutions. Hydrogen ions combine with water molecules to give a more stable species, the hydronium ion H3O+, as demonstrated in the following equation: HCl(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Acids can contain different numbers of acidic hydrogens, and can yield different numbers of H3O+ ions in solution.

Some important reactions of Bases (alkali = soluble base)
  Neutralisation with acids is dealt with above. Ammonium salts are decomposed when mixed with a base eg the alkali sodium hydroxide. o eg sodium hydroxide + ammonium chloride ==> sodium chloride + water + ammonia o NaOH + NH4Cl ==> NaCl + H2O + NH3 o The ammonia is readily detected by its pungent odour (strong smell) and by turning damp red litmus blue. o The ionic equation is: NH4+ + OH- ==> H2O + NH3 o This reaction can be used to prepare ammonia gas and as a simple chemical test for an ammonium salt. Alkali's (soluble bases) are used to produce the insoluble hydroxide precipitates of many metal ions from their soluble salt solutions. o eg sodium hydroxide + copper(II) sulphate ==> sodium sulphate + copper(II) hydroxide o 2NaOH(aq) + CuSO4(aq) ==> Na2SO4(aq) + Cu(OH)2(s) a blue precipitate o ionically: Cu2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) ==> Cu(OH)2(s) o This reaction can be used as a simple test to help identify certain metal ions.



ACIDIC, BASIC & AMPHOTERIC OXIDES
 Oxygen combines with most other elements to form oxides of varying physical chemical character. o On the left and middle of the Periodic Table are the basic metal oxides which react with acids to form salts eg Na2O, MgO, CuO etc. These metal oxides tend to be ionic in bonding character with high melting points. The Group 1 Alkali Metals, and to a less extent, Group 2 oxides, dissolve in water to form alkali solutions. All of them react with , and neutralise acids to form salts. o As you move left to right the oxides become less basic and more acidic. o So on the right you have the acidic oxides of the non-metals CO2, P2O5, SO2, SO3 etc. These tend to be covalent in bonding character with low melting/boiling points. Those of sulphur and phosphorus are very soluble in water to give acidic solutions which can be neutralised by alkalis to form salts. o These oxides are another example of the change from metallic element to non-metallic element chemical behaviour from left to right across the Periodic Table. o BUT life is never that simple in chemistry!:  Some oxides react with both acids and alkalis and are called amphoteric oxides. They are usually relatively insoluble and have little effect on indicators. An example is aluminium oxide dissolves in acids to form 'normal' aluminium salts like the chloride, sulphate and nitrate. However, it also dissolves in strong alkali's like sodium hydroxide solution to form 'aluminate' salts. This could be considered as 'intermediate' basic-acidic character in the Periodic Table.  Some oxides are neutral, tend to be of low solubility in water and have no effect on litmus, and do not react with acids or alkalis. eg CO

5

www.studyguide.pk carbon monoxide (note that CO2 carbon dioxide is weakly acidic) and NO nitrogen monoxide (note that NO2 nitrogen dioxide is strongly acidic in water). There is no way of simply predicting this kind of behaviour from periodic table patterns!

Salts
We have seen that when an acid reacts with a base, a salt is formed: e.g. sulphuric acid + sodium hydroxide  sodium sulphate + water

Here sodium sulphate (Na2SO4) is the salt formed. Salts are ionic compounds. The metal ion is provided by the base (in this case sodium ions, Na+). The non-metal ion is provided by the acid (in this case sulphate ions, SO42-). Note: Ammonia (NH3) is an unusual base - it does not contain a metal. It forms ammonium salts, containing the ammonium ion, NH4+. e.g. NH3(aq) + HNO3(aq)  NH4NO3(aq) (ammonium nitrate)

Soluble and Insoluble Salts
Many ionic salts are soluble in (cold) water. It is useful to know whether or not a salt is soluble in water, as this will influence your choice of method for making it. The table below gives a guide to the solubility of salts: Soluble Salts All common potassium, sodium and ammonium salts All nitrates All common ethanoates

www.studyguide.pk
All common chlorides, except lead and silver chlorides All common sulphates, except lead, barium and calcium sulphates

Methods of making Salts which are water soluble
Soluble salts can be made in four different ways: 1) 2) 3) 4) ACID + METAL  SALT + HYDROGEN ACID + BASE  SALT + WATER ACID + CARBONATE  SALT + WATER + CARBON DIOXIDE ACID + ALKALI  SALT + WATER

Method 1 (Acid + Metal) Not suitable for making salts of metals above magnesium, or below iron/tin in reactivity. e.g. zinc + hydrochloric acid  zinc chloride + hydrogen

Apparatus used: (1) balance, measuring cylinder, beaker and glass stirring rod; (2) beaker/rod, bunsen burner, tripod and gauze; (3) filter funnel and filter paper, evaporating (crystallising) dish; (4) evaporating (crystallising) dish. (ii) A measuring cylinder is adequate for measuring the acid volume, you do not need the accuracy of a pipette or burette required in method (a).

   

Add excess metal to (warm) acid. Wait until no more H2 is evolved. Filter to remove excess metal. Heat the filtrate to evaporate off water until crystallisation starts. Set aside to cool slowly and crystallise fully.

 Method 2 (Acid + Base) Useful for making salts of less reactive metals, e.g. lead, copper. e.g. copper(II) oxide + sulphuric acid  copper(II) sulphate + water

 Add excess base to acid. Warm gently.  Filter to remove excess base, then continue as in method 1…

www.studyguide.pk

 Method 3 (Acid + Carbonate) Useful particularly for making salts of more reactive metals, e.g. calcium, sodium. e.g. calcium carbonate + nitric acid  calcium nitrate + water + carbon dioxide

 Add excess metal carbonate to acid. Wait until no more CO2 is evolved.  Filter to remove excess carbonate, then continue as in method 1…  Method 4 (Acid + Alkali) This is useful for making salts of reactive metals, and ammonium salts. It is different from methods 1-3, as both reactants are in solution. This means neutralisation must be achieved, by adding exactly the right amount of acid to neutralise the alkali. This can be worked out by titration

e.g. sodium hydroxide + hydrochloric acid  sodium chloride + water ammonia + sulphuric acid  ammonium sulphate
(1) A known volume of acid is pipetted into a conical flask and universal indicator added. The acid is titrated with the alkali in the burette (2) until the indicator turns green. (3). The volume of alkali needed for neutralisation is then noted, this is called the endpoint. (1-3) are repeated with both known volumes mixed together BUT without the contaminating indicator. (4) The solution is transferred to an evaporating dish and heated to partially evaporate the water. (5) The solution is left to cool to complete the crystallisation. (6) The residual liquid can be decanted away and the crystals can be carefully collected and dried by 'dabbing' with a filter paper OR the crystals can be collected by filtration (below) and dried (as above).

Making Insoluble Salts
Insoluble salts cannot be prepared by acid-base reactions in the same way as soluble salts. Insoluble salts are prepared by precipitation. This involves mixing solutions of two soluble salts that between them contain the ions that make up the insoluble salt. Here is an example: barium chloride + magnesium sulphate  barium sulphate + magnesium chloride (soluble salt) (soluble salt) (insoluble salt) (soluble salt) BaCl2(aq) + MgSO4(aq)  BaSO4(s) + MgCl2(aq) When the two solutions are mixed, a white solid precipitate of barium sulphate is formed. Let us consider what happens to the ions involved in the reaction:

Ba2+ ClCl-

Mg2+ SO42-

1. At the start, the ions of each soluble salt move about freely in solution, in their separate containers.

Ba2+ ClClMg2+ SO42-

2. After mixing, the ions of the two solutions are free to collide with each other, so new combinations of ions are possible.

Cl- Mg2+ Cl-

3. If one of the new combinations of ions is an insoluble salt, it will be precipitated from the solution. The other ions simply remain in solution - they are spectator ions, and play no part in the reaction.

www.studyguide.pk
The ionic equation for the reaction is: Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq)  BaSO4(s) Notice this equation does not include the spectator ions, only the ions that combine to form the precipitate. Once the reaction is complete, the precipitate can be filtered off, washed with distilled water and dried. This method can also be used to prepare many insoluble metal hydroxides and carbonates. All common hydroxides/carbonates are insoluble except sodium, potassium and ammonium hydroxides/carbonates. e.g. iron(III) chloride + sodium hydroxide  iron(III) hydroxide + sodium chloride (rust brown ppt.) FeCl3(aq) + 3NaOH(aq)  Fe(OH)3(s) + 3NaCl(aq) The ionic equation for this reaction, which shows the formation of the precipitate whilst missing out the spectator ions is as follows: Fe3+(aq) + 3OH-(aq)  Fe(OH)3(s)

Types of Salts
Normal Salts: Normal salts are formed when all the replaceable hydrogen ions in the acid have been completely replaced by metallic ions. HCl(aq) H2SO4(aq) + NaOH(aq)  + ZnO(aq)  NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) ZnSO4(aq) + H2O(l)

Normal salts are neutral to litmus paper. Acid salts: Acid salts are formed when replaceable hydrogen ions in acids are only partially replaced by a metal. Acid salts are produced only by acids containing more then one replaceable hydrogen ion. Therefore an acid with two replaceable ions e.g. H2SO4 will form only one

10

www.studyguide.pk acid salt, while acid with three replaceable hydrogen ions e.g. H3PO4 will form two different acid salts. H2SO4(aq) + KOH(aq) H3PO4(aq) + NaOH   KHSO4(aq) + H2O(l) NaH2PO4(aq) + H2O(l)  Na2HPO4(aq) + 2H2O(l)

H3PO4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq)

An acid salt will turn blue litmus red. In the presence of excess metallic ions an acid salt will be converted into a normal salt as its replaceable hydrogen ions become replaced. Basic Salts: Basic salts contain the hydroxide ion, OH-. They are formed when there is insufficient supply of acid for the complete neutralization of the base. A basic salt will turn red litmus blue and will react with excess acid to form normal salt. Zn(OH)2(s) + HCl(aq)  Zn(OH)Cl(aq) + H2O(l)

Zn(OH)Cl(aq) + HCl(aq)  Mg(OH)2(s) + HNO3(aq) Mg(OH)NO3(aq) 

ZnCl2(aq) + H2O(l) Mg(OH)NO3(aq) + H2O(l)  Mg(NO3)2(aq) + H2O(l)

+ HNO3(aq)

The pH Scale - Acids and Alkalis
The colours of solutions with universal indicator
  

 

The pH scale is a measure of the relative acidity or alkalinity of a solution. To find the pH of a solution an indicator is used like Universal Indicator. An indicator is a substance or mixture of substances that when added to the solution gives different colours depending on the pH of the solution. Universal indicator is a very handy indicator for showing whether the solution is acid, neutral or alkaline and gives the pH to the nearest pH unit. Water is a neutral liquid with a pH of 7 (green). When a substance dissolves in water it forms an aqueous (aq) solution that may be acidic, neutral or alkaline. Acidic solutions have a pH of less than 7, and the lower the number, the stronger the acid is. The colour can range from orange-yellow (pH 3-6) for partially ionised weak acids like ethanoic acid (vinegar) to carbonated water. Strong acids like hydrochloric, sulphuric and nitric are fully ionised and give a pH 1 or less! and a red colour with universal

11

www.studyguide.pk indicator and litmus paper. Neutral solutions have a pH of 7. These are quite often solutions of salts, which are themselves formed from neutralising acids and bases. The 'opposite' of an acid is called a base. Some bases are soluble in water to give alkaline solutions - these are known as alkalis. Alkaline solutions have a pH of over 7 and the higher the pH the stronger is the alkali. Weak alkalis (soluble bases) like ammonia give a pH of 10-11 but strong alkalis (soluble bases) like sodium hydroxide give a pH of 13-14. They give blue/purple colour with universal indicator or litmus paper. NEUTRALISATION usually involves mixing an acid (pH 7) which react to form a neutral salt solution of pH 7.

What pH changes go on in a neutralisation reaction?
The graphs show how the pH changes when an alkali (soluble base) and an acid neutralise each other. If you add acid to an alkali (ind. = blue), the pH starts at 13 and falls little at first. As you get near to the neutralisation point at pH 7 (ind. = green), the change becomes more dramatic. With excess acid the pH falls and then levels out to about pH1 (ind. = red). If you add alkali to an acid (ind. = red), the pH starts at about 1 and rises little at first. As you get near to the neutralisation point at pH 7 (ind. = green), the change becomes more dramatic. With excess alkali the pH rises and then levels out to about 13 (ind. = blue/violet).

IONIC EQUATIONS
Aqueous Reactions and Net Ionic Equations
The equations written up to this point have been molecular equations. All substances have been written using their full chemical formulas as if they were molecules. Because we now know that strong electrolytes dissociate in water to their component ions, it is more accurate to write an ionic equation in which all of the ionic species are shown.
   In many reactions only certain ions change their 'chemical state' but other ions remain in exactly the same original physical and chemical state. The ions that do not change are called 'spectator ions'.

The ionic equation represents the 'actual' chemical change and omits the spectator ions.

To write a net ionic equation: 1.Write a balanced molecular equation. 2.Rewrite the equation showing the ions that form in solution when each soluble electrolyte dissociates into its component ions. Only dissolved strong electrolytes are written in ionic form. 3.Identify and cancel the spectator ions that occur unchanged on both sides of the equation.
 Five types of examples are presented below.

When reactions between ions occur, at least one kind of ion is removed from the "field of action". Simply put, its concentration decreases as the reaction proceeds. There are three ways to remove ions: 1. Formation of an insoluble precipitate 2. Formation of a weakly ionized substance, and 3. Oxidation or reduction of an ion

15

www.studyguide.pk
Let's examine each way individually: 1) Formation of An Insoluble Precipitate

Excess chloride ion "drives" this reaction to the right. 2) Formation of A Weakly Ionized Substance

3) Oxidation or Reduction of An Ion

Rules for Writing Ionic Equations 1) Ionic formulas are written for a strong electrolyte in solution e.g

2) Molecular formulas are written for: a) Elements, gases, solids and non-electrolytes, e.g.:

16

www.studyguide.pk
b) Weak electrolytes in solution, e.g.:

c) Solid strong electrolytes or precipitates, e.g.:

Writing Ionic Equations When writing these equations, do so to answer the following three (3) questions: 1. What kind of reaction is it? Double decomposition? Redox? 2. What are the possible products of the reaction? 3. Are any of the possible products or reactants insoluble or weakly ionized? Double Decomposition Reactions (Precipitate and Weak Electrolyte Reactions) Examples a) KCl + NaNO3 NR Even the products would be soluble and, hence, no reaction occurs. Since the hydrogen ion and the nitrate ion are spectators, the net ionic reaction is the result.
 (1) Acid-base reactions: Acids can be defined as proton donors. A base can be defined as a proton acceptor. o eg any acid-alkali neutralisation involves the hydroxide ion is (base) and this accepts a proton from an acid.  HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) ==> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) which can be re-written as  H+Cl-(aq) + Na+OH-(aq) ==> Na+Cl-(aq) + H2O(l)  H+(aq) + OH-(aq) ==> H2O(l)  the spectator ions are Cl- and Na+ (2) Insoluble salt formation: An insoluble salt is made by mixing two solutions of soluble compounds to form the insoluble compound in a process called 'precipitation'. o (a) Silver chloride is made by mixing solutions of solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride.  silver nitrate + sodium chloride ==> silver chloride + sodium nitrate  Ag+NO3-(aq) + Na+Cl-(aq) ==> AgCl(s) + Na+NO3-(aq)  the ionic equation is: Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ==> AgCl(s)  the spectator ions are NO3- and Na+

Lead(II) iodide can be made by mixing lead(II) nitrate solution with potassium iodide solution.  lead(II) nitrate + potassium iodide ==> lead(II) iodide + potassium nitrate  Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2KI(aq) ==> PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(aq)  the ionic equation is: Pbg2+(aq) + 2I-(aq) ==> PbI2(s)  the spectator ions are NO3- and K+ o (c) Calcium carbonate forms on eg mixing calcium chloride and sodium carbonate solutions  calcium chloride + sodium carbonate ==> calcium carbonate + sodium chloride  CaCl2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) ==> CaCO3(s) + 2NaCl(aq)  ionically: Ca2+(aq) + CO32-(aq) ==> CaCO3(s)  the spectator ions are Cl- and Na+ o (d) Barium sulphate forms on mixing eg barium chloride and dilute sulphuric acid  barium chloride + sulphuric acid ==> barium sulphate + hydrochloric acid  BaCl2(aq) + H2SO4(aq) ==> BaSO4(s) + 2HCl(aq)  ionically: Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) ==> BaSO4(s)  the spectator ions are CO32- and H+ (3) Redox reaction analysis: o (a) magnesium + iron(II) sulphate ==> magnesium sulphate + iron  Mg(s) + FeSO4(aq) => MgSO4(aq) + Fe(s)  this is the 'ordinary molecular' equation for a typical metal displacement reaction, but this does not really show what happens in terms of atoms, ions and electrons, so we use ionic equations like the one shown below.  The sulphate ion SO42-(aq) is called a spectator ion, because it doesn't change in the reaction and can be omitted from the ionic equation. No electrons show up in the full equations because electrons lost by x = electrons gained by y!!  Mg(s) + Fe2+(aq) ==> Mg2+(aq) + Fe(s)  Mg oxidised by electron loss, Fe2+ reduced by electron gain o (b) zinc + hydrochloric acid ==> zinc chloride + hydrogen  Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) => ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)  the chloride ion Cl- is the spectator ion  Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) ==> Zn2+(aq) + H2(g)  Zn oxidised by electron loss, H+ reduced by electron gain o (c) copper + silver nitrate ==> silver + copper(II) nitrate  Cu(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) ==> 2Ag + Cu(NO3)2(aq)  the nitrate ion NO3- is the spectator ion  Cu(s) + 2Ag+(aq) ==> 2Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq)  Cu oxidised by electron loss, Ag+ reduced by electron gain o (d) halogen (more reactive) + halide salt (of less reactive halogen) ==> halide salt (of more reactive halogen) + halogen (less reactive)  X2(aq) + 2K+Y(aq) ==> 2K+X(aq) + Y2(aq)  X2(aq) + 2Y-(aq) ==> 2X-(aq) + Y2(aq)  the potassium ion K+ is the spectator ion  halogen X is more reactive than halogen Y, F > Cl > Br > I) o

18

www.studyguide.pk
 X is the oxidising agent (electron acceptor, so is reduced)  KY or Y- is the reducing agent (electron donor, so is oxidised) (4) Ion Exchange Resins: Ion exchange polymer resin columns hold hydrogen ions or sodium ions. These can be replaced by calcium and magnesium ions when hard water passes down the column. The calcium or magnesium ions are held on the negatively charged resin. The freed hydrogen or sodium ions do not form a scum with soap. o eg 2[resin]-H+(s) + Ca2+(aq) ==> [resin]-Ca2+[resin]-(s) + 2H+(aq) o or 2[resin]-Na+(s) + Mg2+(aq) ==> [resin]-Mg2+[resin]-(s) + 2Na+(aq) etc. (5) Scum formation with hard water: On mixing hard water with soaps made from the sodium salts of fatty acids, insoluble calcium or magnesium salts of the soap are formed ... o CaSO4(aq) + 2C17H35COONa(aq) ==> (C17H35COO)2Ca(s for scum!) + Na2SO4(aq) o or more simply ionically: Ca2+(aq) + 2C17H35COO-(aq) ==> (C17H35COO-)2Ca2+(s) o the spectator ions are SO42- and Na+

...It is widely agreed upon that Dmitri Mendeleev is the father of the periodic table of elements that we are all familiar with today. That is at least debatable considering Lothar Meyer came up with a very similar table to Mendeleev’s. The crucial difference between these two is Dmitri’s was to get his widely published before Meyer, thus earning him the credit for developing the table. Before they were able to even assemble elements into an orderly manner, some important things had to happen first. Before it would be possible to even group elements together in an organized way, there, of course, had to be enough elements discovered to populate such a table. Many elemts have been known since thousands of years ago. The first scientific discovery of an element was the discovery of phosphorous in 1649 by Henning Brand. For 200 years following his discovery, science acquired a vast knowledge of elements and their properties. There were so many different elements, it was determined there must be a way to separate them into groups, if only for the sake of convenience. The earliest attempt to divide elements into gases, metals, non-metals, and earths was made by Antoine Lavoisier. For many years after his organization attempt, scientists all over the world began to learn about elements and how certain ones were similar to others. They used this information to make their own version of how they should be grouped together. It was eventually recognized that there should be a universal...

...The chemistry of perming & rebonding Some of us have naturally curly hair but want it straightened; others have it naturally straight but want it curly. But whatever the style you like to wear, there's chemistry involved in it! The structure of hair Hair is made mostly of a protein called keratin, which is also present in nails. In hair, keratin molecules are arranged in straight bundles. These bundles are held together by disulphide bonds (-S-S-), which give strength to the hair. Disulphide bonds are made by the amino acid called cysteine. The cysteine of one keratin molecule forms a disulphide bond with the cysteine of the neighbouring keratin molecule. The more disulphide bonds there are in a strand of hair, the straighter it is. Ammonium thioglycolate: the perm salt Ammonium thioglycolate (HSCH2CO2NH4) is a compound that can break disulphide bonds. This is because it contains a thiol group (-SH). The thiol group replaces one of the sulphur atoms in the disulphide bond, like this: Keratin-S-S-keratin + 2HS-CH2CO2NH4 --> -HO2CH2CS-SCH2CO2H + 2NH3 + 2HS-keratin When the disulphide bond is broken, the keratin bundles come apart, and hair is weakened. Ammonium thioglycolate is therefore used widely in beauty parlours when customers want their hair re-styled. However, if you use too much of it, or if the reaction is left for too long, you could end up going bald. So do not, ever, try it at home! If you have watched the film Legally Blonde, you'll have seen Reese Witherspoon (acting...

...Ohler 1 Kyle Hardenbrook Chemistry CP October 16, 2014 It was not right for what I did in chemistry class today. Swinging my apron between my legs and making weird noises is a safety caution. If someone was walking by me swinging my apron I could have knocked something out of their hand and made them drop the item. It could have been glass or a specific chemical that was dangerous and caused more injury towards someone. It was extremely immature and I let my energy get to the best of my actions today in chemistry. Proper actions should be mature and not act like a fool and try to get people’s attention and make them laugh. Being the class clown is nothing to be happy about. If I would have causes an accident then their project could have been jeopardized which means their grade is jeopardized. I don’t want to be responsible for affecting someone’s grade because of my immature acts. If I were to knock something over and it was hazardous I could have a possibility of injuring someone. Chemicals are nothing to mess around with and that’s why you should never mess around in a lab. If I were to hurt someone it could mean being in the hospital and if I were responsible for having someone in the emergency room and to pay for someone’s bills I would feel absolutely horrible. Being immature in lab and having fun is nothing to joke about. You need to be 100% serious or else you are endangering other people around your own...

...Cp8, Coordination Compound, Synthesis & Product Yield Observation, Description & Questions 1. Compound 1 was initially a light blue color. After adding the oxalic acid and heating it changed to a yellow color. Once the saturated potassium oxalate solution was added it changed to a red color. Once most of the hydrogen peroxide was added it changed colors again to murky brown. Finally it changed to a green color after the solution was brought to a boil and more oxalic acid was added. Compound 3 were crystals that of the same green color. 2. We started with: 10.000 g Fe(NH4)2(SO4)2 • 6 H2O / 392.14 g/mol = .02550 mol. We ended with 6.557 g K3Fe(C2O4)3 • 3 H2O / 491.24 g/mol = .01335 mol. .01335 mol / .02550 mol * 100% = 52.35% yield. 3. If the yield had been greater than 100% percent the likely reason would be that some liquid from the washing process hadn’t been allowed enough time to dry and caused the final weight measurement to be off. 4. Since the yield of the final solid crystals was about half of the starting amount it is likely because the solution didn’t have enough time to completely form into the solid compound. Also, in there may have been a limiting reagent that wasn’t taken into consideration. 5. Charge on iron in reagent I (Fe(NH4)2(SO4)2 • 6 H2O) = 2+ 6.

...TITLE OF EXPERIMENT: EXTRACTION WITH ACID AND ALKALINE OBJECTIVES: 1) Performed on acid-alkaline extraction 2) Learned to recovered benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene from its mixture using acid-alkaline extraction method 3) Determine the percent recovery of benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene 4) Determine the melting point of recovered benzoic acid and p-dichlorobenzene INTRODUCTION: Extraction involves dissolving a compound or compounds either from a solid into a liqiud or from a solution into another liquid. An acid-alkaline extraction is also known as a form of liquid-liquid extraction. Extraction is a procedure to separate compounds based on their relative solubility in two different immiscible solutions. Two layers are formed when the mixture are separated. The upper layer contains a low dense solvent. Basically in most of the extraction, one of the solvent used would be water as an aqueous solution and the other would be an organic solvent that is insoluble in water. The choice of organic solvent must be volatile so it can easily by removed by evaporation when forming crystals. The cleanest separations of organic compounds can be performed by using acid or alkaline solutions which can convert the compound to be extracted to a water-soluble and ether insoluble salt. Phenolic compounds undergo similar salt formation with sodium hydroxide solution. Hence, sodium hydroxide solution can be used to extract a carboxylic acid or phenolic compound from its solution...
