Reactions in Aqueous Solutions Flashcards
(11 cards)
substance that dissociates into ions when dissolved in water. Conducts electricity
Electrolyte
substance that may dissolve in water, but does not dissociates into ions
nonelectrolyte
when two solutions containing soluble salts are mixed, sometimes an insoluble salt will be produced. A salt “falls” out of solution, like snow out of the sky.
Precipitation
the ions in the reactant compounds exchange or transpose ions
Metathesis (Exchange) Reactions
Arrhenius described these substances that increase the concentration of OH- when dissolved in water
bases
Bronsted and Lowry defined them as proton acceptors
Bases
When a strong acid reacts with a strong base
Neutralization Reactions
When a carbonate or bicarbonate reacts with an acid, the products are a salt, carbon dioxide and water
Gas Forming Reactions
OILRIG
Oxidation is Losing of E
Reduction is Gaining of E
The elements above hydrogen will react with acids to produce hydrogen gas. The metal is oxidized to a cation
Metal/Acid Displacement Reactions
an analytical technique in which one can calculate the concentration of a solute in a solution
Titration
