What is the Law of Constant Composition?
First reported by Joseph Proust in 1799
“All samples of a given compound have the same proportions of their constituent elements.”
Define Compounds vs. Mixtures
The ratios of the elements do NOT vary in compound and are exact.
The ratios of the components of a mixture can vary
Writing Chemical Formulas
By convention, the more/most metallic element
is written first
Law of Multiple Proportions Author and Summary
Both compounds contain only
carbon and oxygen. In each compound,
the carbon and oxygen are in a fixed proportion….
How many atoms of each element are in a formula unit of Al2(SO4)3?
2Al, 3S, 12O
Name the Different Types of Formulas and How the different
Empirical Formulas give the ratios of the atoms for each of the elements in their lowest terms
The empirical formula for glucose (blood sugar) is CH2O
Molecular Formulas give the number of each type of atom in a molecule
The molecular formula for glucose is C6H12O6
Structural formulas show us how the atoms are hooked together and give much more information.
Define Atomic and Molecular Elements
Atomic Elements are the norm
Single atoms are the basic units
Noble gases and metals such as copper, gold and mercury are examples
Molecular Elements include the diatomic elements, where the natural form is two atoms bonded together
Other examples include phosphorus which can exist as P4 or P8 (among others); sulfur exists as S8
Elements That Occur as Diatomic Molecules
Hydrogen: H_2 Nitrogen: N_2 Oxygen: O_2 Fluorine: F_2 Chlorine: Cl_2 Bromine: Br_2 Iodine : I_2
Define Ionic and Molecular Compounds
Compounds contain two or more different elements
The atoms of each element are in very specific ratios
Molecular compounds are composed of two or more nonmetals. Molecules are the basic unit.
Ionic compounds are made of a combination of anions and cations.
Usually, the cations are metals, and the anions are nonmetals.
Define Ionic Compounds
Ionic compounds do NOT form molecules
In the solid phase the compounds exist as crystals.
We refer to their structure as being in “formula units”
The formula unit gives the ratio of cations to anions.
The formula must be neutral in charge: The total charges of anions and cations are equal.
Ion Formation Rules
Metals lose electrons to develop a positive charge. Those in
Column 1A: loses one electron, 1+ charge
Column 2A: lose two electrons, 2+ charge
Aluminum: loses three electrons, 3+ charge
Note others on next figure
Transition metals: Multiple charges possible
You need to be told, or calculate, the charge on the metal ion
Ion Formation cont’d
Nonmetals gain electrons to develop a negative charge. Those in
Column 7A: Gain one electron; 1- charge
Column 6A: Oxygen, sulfur and selenium often gain two electrons; 2- charge
Column 5A: Nitrogen and phosphorus can gain 3 electrons to form a 3- charge
CHP 5 Points to Remember
Metals form cations.
Group 1A 1+. Group 2A 2+.
Transition metals may have more than one charge. Often it cannot be predicted UNTIL you know the formula of the compound you are examining.
Nonmetals form anions.
Group 6A 2-. Group 7A 1-.
Noble gases do not readily form ions.
Ions are formed by the gain or loss of electrons.
Naming Metal Ions
Alkali and alkaline earth metals:
(Name of metal) ion
sodium ion
potassium ion
aluminum ion
For transition metals, you need to tell what the charge on the metal is
Cu1+ copper(I) ion
Cr3+ chromium(III) ion
Hg2+ mercury(II) ion
We will only be using the newer Stock system to name the ions.
Exceptions with naming: Zn2+ (zinc), Cd2+ (cadmium), Ag+ (silver). Also, Al3+, Ga3+ and In3+. These have only the charges listed. Use Main Group rules. Note their places on the periodic table.
Naming Non-metal Ions
Replace the ending of the element name with the suffix –ide. They have negative charges. oxygen … oxide ion nitrogen … nitride ion fluorine … fluoride ion bromine … bromide ion
Polyatomic Ions
Ions that contain more than one atom.
Treat the whole group of atoms as one unit.
The given charge is for the whole unit of atoms.
Polyatomic IonsKnow these
NH4+ ammonium NO3- nitrate OH- hydroxide NO2- nitrite CN- cyanide CO32- carbonate C2H3O2- or HCO3- bicarbonate CH3COO- acetate
SO42- sulfate PO43- phosphate
SO32- sulfite HPO42- hydrogen phosphate
HSO4- bisulfate H2PO4- dihydrogen phosphate
HSO3- bisulfite
Atoms Are Smaller than Nails
The mole is defined as exactly 6.02214076×1023 constitutive particles, which may be atoms, molecules, ions, or electrons.
The Mole
We will say that a mole contains 6.022 x 1023 particles
This is known as Avogadro’s number.
Think of moles like dozens, a defined amount, but a bit bigger.
How many atoms are in 0.457 mol of Helium?
2.75 x 10 23 atoms He
