Setting the Stage – Global Warming
Accepted as a fact after some controversy At least partly due to increase of CO2 in
atmosphere CO2 (along with other gases) traps heat in
the atmosphere by preventing heat loss to space
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
3
Burning Fossil Fuels – Source of Most CO2
Natural gas, coal and oiland all carboncompounds produce CO2 on combustion.Other gases (variouspollutants) are potent“greenhouse gases”
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
4
Carbon Cycle
Photosynthesis converts CO2 to carbohydrates (CH2O)n
Carbohydrates undergo reaction with oxygen (combustion) to yield H2O and CO2
In the past 100-200 years, more combustion occurs than photosynthesis, resulting in an increase in CO2 relative to (CH2O)n
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
5
Reactions
Combustion (reaction with oxygen) is one of a number of possible reactions that chemicals can undergo
Many reactions occur in water, especially since water can hold ionic and polar compounds in solution

6-1 Chemical Equations
A chemical equation is the representation of a chemical reaction using the symbols of the elements and the formulas of the compounds
The reacting species (starting materials or reactants) are listed on the left, and the products of the reaction are listed on the right

11
Chemical Equations
Chemical equations are the representation of a chemical reaction using the symbols of the elements and the formulas of the compounds
The arrow means “produces” or “yields” Reactants are shown to the left of the arrow, and
products are shown to the right of the arrow A plus sign is used to indicate that substances
combine or react with each other
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
12
Chemical Equations
Symbols commonly used in chemical equations are listed in Table 6-1 (memorize this)
We balance chemical equations because of the Law of the Conservation of Mass
We use coefficients in front of the element or compound formula, which are whole numbers that adjust the amounts of the species
Note that we cannot balance an equation by changing the subscripts of the compound
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
13
Balancing Coefficients
The subscripts of the compound are fixed: they cannot be changed in an equation
The coefficients used should be the smallest whole numbers possible
The coefficient multiplies every number in the formula (e.g. 2 MgCl2 means that there are 2 Mg atoms and 4 Cl atoms)
We will balance equations by inspection
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
14
Balancing Strategies
Consider PbO2 + HCl → PbCl2 + Cl2 + H2O Balance Pb first, then O, H and finally Cl
Cl last because it is in its free state, Cl2
Pb first since it is not H or O O because it is bonded to Pb (in PbO2)
H because it is bonded to O (in H2O)
PbO2 + 4HCl PbCl2 + Cl2 + 2H2O
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
15
Combustion, Combination and Decomposition Reactions
All chemical reactions can be represented by balanced chemical equations
These reactions can also be classified into one of five groups (although other groupings are possible)
Objective for next section is to classify certain chemical reactions as being combustion, combination or decomposition
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
16
Objective for Section 6-2
Classify certain chemical reactions as being combustion, combination, or decomposition reactions
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
17
6-2 Combustion, Combination, and Decomposition Reactions
Combustion Reactions Involve the combination of an element or compound
with oxygen (as O2) Usually liberates a lot of heat, and may be
accompanied by a flame Combustion reactions may be incomplete,
especially if there is insufficient oxygen.
E.g. 2C8H18(l) + 17O2(g) 16CO(g) + 18H2O(l)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
18
Combustion Reactions
Balancing combustion reactions involving hydrocarbons is best done by starting with C, then H, followed by O
Consider the complete combustion of ethane. The products are CO2 and H2O
The initial balanced equation is C2H6 (g) + 7/2O2 (g) 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l)
Converting to whole numbers gives:
2C2H6 (g) + 7O2 (g) 4CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
19
Combustion Reactions - Example
Strip of magnesium combusting
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
20
Combination Reactions
Often called synthesis reactions Involves two or more substances
combining to form a single substance Consider:
2Mg(s) + O2 (g) 2MgO(s)
2Na(s) + Cl2(g) 2NaCl(s)
NH3(g) + HCl(g) NH4Cl(s)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
21
Decomposition Reactions
The reverse of a combination (or synthesis) reaction
One substance breaking apart into two or more substances
Consider:H2CO3(aq) H2O(l) + CO2(g)
N2O4(g) 2NO2(g)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
22
Setting a Goal - Part BIons In Water And How They React
You will learn how ions are formed in aqueous solution and how these ions interact in two important types of chemical reactions
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
23
Objective for Section 6-3 Write the ions formed when ionic
compounds or acids dissolve in water
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
24
6-3 The Formation of Ions in Water
When we consider a substance dissolving in another substance, we define the solute as the substance in lesser amount, and the solvent as the substance in greater amount
Solubility is the relative degree to which a substance dissolves in a solvent
Soluble substances dissolve to a considerable degree
Insoluble substances do not dissolve at all or only to a small degree
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
25
Dissolution of Ionic Compounds When ionic compounds dissolve in water, they dissociate into separate
anions and cations:
NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) See Figure 6-4 The ions are often highly solvated. Ion solvation is an energetically
favorable process; the energy lost more than compensates for the energy needed to break down the crystal lattice
H2O

Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
27
Dissolution of Polyatomic Salts
It is important to be able to recognize polyatomic ions, since they do not dissociate into simple ions H2O
Ca(ClO4)2(s) → Ca2+(aq) + 2 ClO4-(aq)
The salts do dissociate into anions and cations, but the polyatomic ions remain intact
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
28
Dissolution of Acids
Acids are so named because when they dissolve, they ionize to yield H+
and the associated anionHCl(aq) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
or HCl(g) + aq H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
29
Acids Strong acids completely dissociate into
ions upon dissolution in water Examples are HX (X = Cl-, Br-, I-), H2SO4,
HNO3, HClO4
Weak acids dissolve, but do not completely dissociate into H+ and anions
Examples are HF, HCN, HOCl, HCO2H and CH3CO2H (+ most organic carboxylic acids)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e

several single-replacement reactions as balanced molecular, total ionic, and net ionic equations
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
32
6-4 Single-Replacement Reactions
An element replaces another in a compoundZn(s) + CuCl2(aq) ZnCl2(aq) + Cu(s)
This particular form of the equation is termed the molecular equation, where all reactants and products are shown as neutral compounds
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
33
Reaction of Zn with Cu2+
Immersing a strip of Zn in a solution containing Cu2+ causes Cu metal to form a coat on the Zn strip
See Figure 6-5.
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
34
Ionic Equations
The total ionic equation separates all of the anions and cations Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Zn2+ (aq) + 2Cl-(aq) + Cu(s) Spectator ions (such as the Cl- ions)
are those that are in the same state on both sides of the equation
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
35
Net Ionic Equation
The net ionic equation leaves out the spectator ionsThe complete ionic equation:Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) + Cu(s)The net ionic equation:
Zn(s) + Cu2+(aq) Zn2+(aq) + Cu(s)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
36
Activity Series
Table 6-2 indicates the common metals in decreasing order of their ability to replace metal ions in aqueous solution
When comparing two metals, the one higher in the table replaces the one lower in the table (e.g. Zn can replace Cu but not Al)

Precipitates are indicated by (s) or
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
41
What Causes Double Replacements?
There has to be some process to cause the reaction to take place Precipitation of a solid Evolution of a gas Neutralization reaction between an acid
and a base If one of these processes does not occur,
there is no double replacement reaction

Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
44
Precipitation Reactions
Formation of a precipitate occurs when solutions of two soluble ionic compounds are mixed to produce an insoluble salt
The two cations exchange anions in such reactions
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
45
Precipitation
Use the solubility rules (Table 6-3) to predict whether two ions combine to form an insoluble salt
Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NaI(aq) → PbI2(s) + 2 NaNO3(aq)
NH4NO3 (aq) + NaI(aq) → no precipitate

47
What Happens if all Salts are Soluble?
Mixing aqueous solutions of CuCl2 and KNO3 results in a solution containing all four ions in solution
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
48
Analyzing a Possible Precipitation Reaction
When aqueous solutions of two salts are mixed, consider the solubility of the salts that would result if the anions and cations exchanged partners
For example, if a solution of Na2CO3 is mixed with a solution of CaCl2, you need to consider the solubility of CaCO3 and NaCl
If one of the new salts is insoluble, then a precipitate forms

Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
51
Strong Acids and Bases
Both chemical types are hazardous Strong acids completely ionize into
H+(aq) and an anion Strong bases dissolve in water to
produce the hydroxide ion, OH-
The strong bases are the hydroxides of the group IA and IIA metal ions (except Be)
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
52
Reaction of Strong Acids and Bases
When solutions of strong acids and bases are mixed, H+ ion and the OH- ion react to form the molecular compound H2O
The other product is a salt This double replacement reaction of
acids and bases is termed a neutralization reaction
Malone and Dolter - Basic Concepts of Chemistry 9e
53
Examples
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → H2O(l) + NaCl(aq) The net ionic equation for all strong acid-
strong base neutralization reactions is the sameH+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)
The key to balancing neutralization reactions is to ensure that there is one H+ for each OH-
