18
Q

What occurs during the neutralisation between an acid and ammonia ?

A

Ammonia accepts H+ to become ammonium ion (to form ammonium salt)

19
Q

What is the ionic equation for neutralisation?

A

H+. + OH- = H2O

20
Q

What’s the difference between sodium hydrogen carbonate (1) and sodium hydrocarbonate (2)?

1) Na H C

2) Na H O C

21
Q

What do ions ending in ate always have?

A

Oxygen

22
Q

What are oxidation numbers?

A

A measure of how oxidised a molecule is

23
Q

What’s the ON of a pure element ?

A

0

24
Q

What’s the difference between ionic charge and ON?

A

Ionic charge = sign after

ON = sign before

25
Q

What is the ON of monoatomic ions?

A

Same as charge

26
Q

What is the ON of F H and O in compounds?

A

F= -1

H= +1

O= -2

27
Q

What does anhydrous mean?

A

Without water of crystallisation

28
Q

What is oxonium?

31
Q

Define strong acid and alkali

A

32
Q

How do you prepare a standard solution?

A
N=cv to find moles of substance needed
N=m/M to find mass needed
Dissolve in water in beaker
Add to volumetric flask (set volume)
Add rinsings (distilled water)
Top up until miniscus is on line
33

34
Q

What are the exceptions to the oxidation number rules?

A

H in metal hydride = - 1

O in peroxides =-1

35
Q

What do you remove in an ionic equation?

A

Spector ions

don’t change state

36
Q

What’s the difference between ionic and half equations?

A

Ionic show overall change

Half show gain/loss of electrons

37
Q

Why are reading take on titrations rounded +/- 0.005?

A

More accurate

38
Q

Name for solution of known and unknown concentration
