Binary Compund
A two element compound
Binary ionic compound
A two element compound consisting on an anion and cation
Acid
Substances that produce hydrogen ions in aqueous solutions; proton donors.
Oxyanion
a polyatomic ion containing at least one oxygen atom and one or more atoms of at least one other element.
polyatomic ion
an ion containing a number of atoms
precipitate
identification in reactions where solid forms
strong electrolyte
a material that when dissolved in water gives a solution that conducts an electric current very efficiently
soluble
dissolvable in waterr
insoluble
not dissolvable in water
strong acid
an acid that completely dissociates to produce H+ ions and the conjugate base.
base
substances that produce hydroxide ions in aqueous solutions; proton acceptors
strong base
a metal hydroxide compound that completely dissociates into its ions in water
molecular equation
an equation representing a reaction in solution and showing the reactants and product in undissociated form, whether they are strong or weak electrolytes
complete ionic equation
An equation that shows as ions all substances that are strong electrolytes
net ionic equation
an equation for a reaction in solution, representing strong electrolytes as ions and showing only those components that are directly involved in the chemical change.
spectator ions
ions present in the reaction that do not participate directly in the reaction
salt
ionic compound
double displacement reaction
AB+CD-AD+CB
acid base reaction
HY+AOH-AY+H20
involves an H+ ion that ends up in the product water
precipitation reaction
formation of a solid
oxidation reduction reaction
involves the transfer of electrons
oxidization
an increase in oxidation state; a loss of electrons
reduction
a decrease in oxidation state; a gain in electrons
oxidizing agent
A reactant that accepts electrons from another reactant
