NOT BINARY (2 elements) COMPOUNDS
3+ elements
when more than 1 poly ion is req put in bracket
Metals could be variable or fixed
- reverse criss cross

Balenenced equations (following the law of conservation of mass - matter cannot be created or destroyed/4g of H + 32g of oxygen = 36g of water
84

Atoms react
Atoms are never lost, just rearranged
85
Synthesis
One product
- two smaller reactants make a more complex product
A+B = AB
Ba + O2 = BaO
86
Decomposition reaction
A large complex molecules breaks down to form 2 smaller products
AB = A + B (complimentary to synthesis reaction)
NaCl = Na + Cl2
87
Single displacement
When an element takes the place of another element
a) cation (metal) replacing cation
K + Li2O = K2O + Li
A + BC. = AC + B
b) anion (non-metal) replacing anion
F2 + Li2O = LiF + O2
A + BC. = B (always metal first) A + C
88
Double displacement
Cations (metals) of two compounds, exchange places to form 2 new compounds - ionic compounds (metal + nonmetal)
AB + CD = CB + AD (a and c are metals)
MgCl2 + Na2O = NaCl + MgO
Metals keep their og charges in the product
89
What are Combustion reactions know for
Burning
Release of energy
90
For combustion… what 3 things have to be present
- fuel
- oxygen
- heat
91
What is a hydrocarbon
Molecules composed of only carbon and hydrogen
General formula: CxHy
used as fuels
92
What are the two types of combustion of hydrocarbons
1. Complete
2. Incomplete
(DEPENDS ON THE AMOUNT OF O2 PRESENT)
93
Complete combustion
- Good amount of o2 is present
- Hydrocarbon reacts to form co2 and water vapour
- releases the most energy in the form of light and heat
- clean flames (very hot/blue flame)
General formula
Hydrocarbon + oxygen gas —> carbon dioxide + water vapour + energy
94
Incomplete combustion
- not a lot of oxygen (yellow flame/less heat)
- produces h2o (water vapour), and energy as well as any combination of co2, co, c
General formula:
Hydrocarbon + oxygen gas —> water vapour + energy + carbon dioxide/carbon monoxide and/or carbon
Since there are so many possible reactants, incomplete combustions cannot be represented by one single equation
95
CARBON MONOXIDE (CO)
- 250x stronger than O2
- only a very high concentration of o2 can displace one co molecule
96
Threats of CO
Headache
Fatigue
Nausea
Muscle aches
Dizziness
Difficulty swallowing
Rapid heart beat
Changes in sensory sensitivity
97
What is corrosion
The breakdown of metals
98
most metals _____________
Corrode
99
Iron forms ___________
Copper forms _______________
Aluminum forms ___________
Iron oxide (rust)
Copper oxide
Aluminum oxide
100
Rust (iron oxide)
Rusting is when iron reacts with oxygen
Fe + O2 —> Fe2O3
Iron + oxygen = iron iii oxide
Accelerated with water pressure / electrolytes
Rust is a reddish brown porous material that flakes to expose a fresh layer of iron for further corrosion until all flakes
101
How can corrosion be benefitical
Copper developed a corrosion resistant layer called patina after being exposed to the atom pourer for several months
- so resistant that a copper roof remains weather proof for 75 years
Also
Aluminum oxide is known for preventing corrosion
102
How can we prevent metals from corroding
Paint - protective coatings
Plastic/ stainless steel - corrosion resistant materials
Coating with thin zinc layer - galvanizing

Concentration
Acid
Base
If ph increases by 1, it is 10x more basic
If ph decreased by 1, it is 10x more acidic
107
Many solutions of acids and bases are
______ and _______
Clear and colourless
108
COMMON INDICATORS
-phenolphthalein (clear acids/ pink bases)
-Litmus (red turns blue for BASE. blue turns pink/red for ACID)
-ph paper
-cabbage (natural indicator)
- ph meter (digitally displays ph)
109
How is ph important for my health?
Some foods are more acidic (fries) and some are more basic (broccoli)
If ph goes under 6.8 or over 7.8 it is bad
Should stay at 7.4
Swimming pools need to be at a proper ph to not irritate swimmers
110
Neutralization reactions
Mix of an acid and base (double displacement reaction)
Ph 7 as they both get neutralized
111
Products of neutralization relations
Water (H+ and OH-)
Ionic compound (salt) - formed from the other elements
112
Example of neutralization reaction
1. HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
2. 2HNO3 + Na2CO3= 2NaNO3 + H2CO3
H2CO3 = CO2 and H2O (l)
113
Uses of neutralization reaction
Bee sting that attacks the nerves can be neutralized with an ammonia based cream
Stomach juice kills Hermes and is neutralized by based in small intestines
Acid reflux can stop with the use of antacids (medication ie. Tums, which use non-toxic bases)
Cleaning up chemical spills
If a strong acid is spilt, use a base to neutralize it and raise its ph
