Q

steps to metathesis reactions

A
  • determine ions present
  • write formulas for product, cation from 1 reaction w/ anion from other reaction
  • check solubility; if insoluble, precipitate forms

heavy group 2A metal hydroxides (Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ba(OH)2)

26
Q

strong acids and bases

A

completely dissociate in aq (completely ionized)

27
Q

weak acids and bases

A

don’t completely dissociate (partially ionized)

28
Q

identifying strong/weak electrolytes

A
  • ionic or molecular? –> ionic = strong
  • molecular = acid or base?
    • if starts w/ H or ends w/ COOH = acid
29
Q

neutralization reaction

A

reaction b/w acid and base

30
Q

neutralization reaction w/ metal hydroxide (base)

A

product = water + salt

31
Q

neutralization reaction w/ gas

A

carbonate/bicarbonate react w/ acid –> water + salt + CO2

32
Q

oxidation

A

loss of electrons

33
Q

reduction

A

gain of electrons

34
Q

oxidation number

A

assigned; determines if redox reaction occured

35
Q

oxidation number: pure element

A

0

36
Q

oxidation number: monatomic ion

A

same as charge

37
Q

oxidation number: nonmetals

A

usually (-)

38
Q

oxidation number: sum of oxidation numbers

A

neutral = 0
polyatomic ion = charge of ion(s)

39
Q

displacement reactions

A

ion oxidize an element
- reaction b/w metal + acid/metal salt (partner switching)

40
Q

becoming more (+)

A

loss of electrons

41
Q

becoming more (-)

A

gain electrons

42
Q

activity series

A

list of metals in order of decreasing oxidation
- elements higher = more reactive = more easily oxidized

43
Q

active metals

A

metals at top of series = most easily oxidized

44
Q

noble metals

A

metals at bottom of series = low reactivity

45
Q

reducing agent

A

loses electrons (more +), is oxidized

46
Q

oxidizing agent

A

gains electrons (more -), is reduced

47
Q

concentration

A

amount of solute dissolved in solvent

48
Q

molarity (M)

A

concentration of solution
M = (moles of solute)/(volume of solution (L))

49
Q

dilution

A

adding solvent to solution; lowers concentration, moles stay the same
- molarity(initial) x volume(initial) = molarity(final) x volume(final)

50
Q

titration: to calculate concentration of solute in solution

A
  • m1v1 = m2v2
  • mL1=? M1=, M2=, ML2=
51
Q

standard solution

A

reagent solution of known concentration

52
Q

equivalence point

A

point of which equivalent quantities are brought together
