Advanced Placement (AP) Chemistry Summer Assignment
Summer 2014
To the AP Chemistry Student:
Welcome to my AP Chemistry class!
The Advance Placement Chemistry experience is designed to provide a full year of college-level chemistry,
so it places heavy demands on the student, especially in terms of the time commitment required. In fact,
the College Board suggests that students devote a minimum of five hours per week for individual study
outside of the classroom. The ultimate objective, of course, is to prepare you to take the AP Chemistry test
on May 4, 2015, and in order to accomplish this, topics are covered very quickly. For this reason, most
students take AP Chemistry after they already completed a year of high school chemistry, since that
provides them with a solid foundation. In order to ensure the best start for you next fall, I prepared a
Summer Assignment that reviews many basic chemistry concepts. This is a required assignment, and
your first assessment in September will be drawn from topics in the Summer Assignment.
If you have already taken a high school chemistry course, you will find much of the material in the Summer
Assignment to be very familiar. It is important that everyone come to the first day of class well prepared!
Extensive remediation is not an option as we work towards our goal of becoming completely prepared for
the AP Exam in early May, so seek help early if you are struggling.
To help you understand what is expected of you as you begin AP Chemistry, I prepared an “Expectation”
sheet which is found on my website. This document describes basic skills and concepts, and it also has
some tables of information that are absolutely essential for you to know.
It is also important that you realize up front how your performance in this course will be measured. The
course grade will mainly depend on your assessment scores, although some lab reports will also be
assigned and evaluated. Do not expect any grade curves or ‘fluff’ assignments this year! Assessments will
be graded as if they are AP exams.
There is a vast amount of chemistry available on the Internet, including sources cited on my own website.
With ready access to these websites in your home, school or at the local library, I am confident that you
will have everything you need to learn chemistry at the AP level.
Finally, I recommend that you spread out the Summer Assignment, rather than trying to complete it in the
final week of the summer! It takes time for a student to process, practice and subsequently learn chemistry
at the level necessary for success in AP Chemistry. Remember, AP Chemistry is an equivalent course to
an Introductory Chemistry college course, a full year program. Taking a college level course in high
school is difficult, and it requires commitment, hard work and time, but completion of a class like this is
a great investment in your education. Prepare yourself and arrive ready to learn!
You may contact me by email over the summer, and I will do my best to respond quickly.

Have a great summer !

Topics8-10: Naming and writing formulas for ionic compounds,
molecular (covalent) compounds, and acids
Case 1: Ionic compounds containing monatomic ions (i.e. ions that can only have one charge)

Name of Compound = name of metal + name of non-metal w/ide suffix or name of
polyatomic ion. No prefixes are used!

e.g. NaF = sodium fluoride; Na3PO4 = sodium phosphate; (NH4)3PO4 = ammonium phosphate
Case 2: Ionic compounds containing a metal that can form more than one ion

Name of Compound = name of metal, followed by charge of metal in Roman numerals in
parentheses, followed by name of non-metal w/ -ide suffix or name of polyatomic ion. No
prefixes are used!

e.g. PbCl2 = Lead (II) chloride; Cu(NO3)2 = copper (II) nitrate
Case 3:
Binary molecular compounds:

Name of Compound = name of first element + name of second element with -ide suffix.

Use prefixes (mono-, di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta-, nona-, deca-) to indicate the number
of atoms. The mono prefix is not used with the first element.

e.g. CO = carbon monoxide; NO2 = nitrogen dioxide; N2O = dinitrogen monoxide; P2O5 =
diphosphorus pentoxide
Case 4: Binary acid solutions (i.e. binary acids dissolved in water = binary acids in aqueous solution)

Name of Compound = hydro + name of halogen w/ -ic suffix e.g. HF(aq) = hydrofluoric acid;
HCl(aq) = hydrochloric acid

Unless stated otherwise assume the formula of a binary acid is for the acid dissolved in water.
E.g. assume HCl = HCl(aq)
Naming Oxoacids (i.e. compound with the general formula H xMOy, where M = nonmetal)
The name of an oxoacid is based on the name of the polyatomic ion from which the acid is derived.

Topics 11-13: Calcuating Molar masses, Converting among moles, grams and
atoms, and calculating percent composition
1. Calculating Molar (also formula ) mass.
find the mass of a mole of an element by using the atomic mass on the periodic table. Now we are applying it to the
formula for a molecular or ionic compound. Here are the steps for calculating molar formula mass:
1. Write the formula
2. Write each element below it individually
3. Write how many there are of that atom (look for the subscript and use that – if there is none, it is one)
4. Multiply the number of that atom by its molar mass (use 2 decimal places).
5. Find the total of these masses.
Example:
H 2O
H = 2 x 1.01 g = 2.02 g
O = 1 x 16.00 g = 16.00 g
18.0 2 g/mol
1. Calculate the molar mass ( g/ mol) of
a. Ammonia ( NH3)
b. Baking soda ( NaHCO3)
c. Osmium Metal (Os)
2. The molecular formula of morphine, a pain-killing narcotic, is C17H19NO3.
a. What is its molar mass?
b. What fraction of atoms in morphine is accounted for by carbon?
c. Which element contributes least to the molar mass?
13
3. Use dimensional analysis to Calculate the mass in grams of each of the following: (there are 6.022 x
1023 molecules or formula untis of a compond in one mole of that compound) (there are 6.022 x 1023 atoms
of an element in one mole of that element)
example: 1. How many molecules of glucose (C6H12O6) in 15.0 grams of glucose?
a. 6.02 x 1023 atoms of Mg
b. 3.01 x 1023 formula units of CaCl2

a. Mass of 3.0 x 1010 atoms of mercury
b. What is this mass in nanograms?
3. a. Determine the number of molecules present in a 4.56 mol sample of methane gas (CH4) ;
b. then determine the number of hydrogen atoms in the sample.
14
4.
In an experiment, a student gently heated a hydrate of a copper compound to remove the water .
The following data was recorded:
1. Mass of crucible, cover, and contents before heating = 23.4 g.
2. Mass of empty crucible and cover = 18.82 g.
3. Mass of crucible, cover, and contents after heating to constant mass = 20.94 g.
Calculate the percent by mass of water in the copper compound.
Percent composition
When you calculate the percent composition of a compound (for example – water), you are really finding out what
percentage of the mass of water is hydrogen and what percentage is oxygen. To do this, you must:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Calculate the molar mass
Divide each elements mass contribution by the molar mass
Multiply this answer by 100 to make it into a percentage
Check your answer by adding the percentages. They should add up to 100.
Example
H 2O
Answer:
H = 2 x 1.0 g = 2.02 g / 18.02 g = 0.111 x 100 = 11.21% H
O = 1 x 16.0 g = 16.00 g / 18.02 g = 0.8879 x 100 = 88.79% O
18.02 g

Assume that you have 100 g of the compound and change your percentages to g.
Convert the g to moles.
Divide these answers by the smallest number of moles.
Use these whole numbers as the subscripts for the formula.
If they aren’t whole numbers, you may need to multiply each answer by a 2, 3, or 4 to make it a whole number. Use
2 if it ends close to .5, use 3 if it ends close to .33 or .67, and use 4 if it ends close to .25 or .75.

A compound is 63% Mn and 37% O. What is the empirical formula?
63 g Mn x 1 mol Mn = 1.15 mol Mn
54.9 g Mn
37 g O x 1 mol O = 2.31 mol O

17
Molecular Formulas
If you know the empirical formula of a compound and know the true molecular mass, then it is easy to find its true
formula (remember that the empirical formula is just he lowest ratio of atoms in a compound).
A compound has the percent composition of 68.54% C, 8.63% H and 22.83% O. Its true molecular mass is 140 g.
What is the molecular formula.

Topics 16 and 17 Balancing and writing Chemical Equations
Types of Chemical Reactions
All chemical reactions can be grouped into one of six categories. These categories are based on how the atoms in the
molecules react with each other.
Synthesis – A synthesis reaction is hwen two or more simple compounds combine to form a more complicated one.
These reactions come in the general form of:
A + B → AB
One example of a synthesis reaction is the combination of iron and sulfur to form ferrous sulfide
8 Fe + S8 → 8 FeS
Decomposition – A decomposition reaction is the opposite of a synthesis reaction. A complex molecule breaks down
to make simpler ones. These reactions come in the general form:
AB → A + B
One example of a decomposition reaction is the electrolysis of water to make oxygen and hydrogen gas:
e
2 H2O  2 H2 + O2
Single Displacement/Replacement – This is when one element trades places with another element in a compound.
These reactions come in the general form of:
A + BC → AC + B or X + YZ → YX + Z
One example of a single displacement reaction is when magnesium replaces hydrogen in water to make magnesium
hydroxide and hydrogen gas:
Mg + 2 H2O → Mg(OH)2 + H2
Double Displacement/Replacement – This is when the anions and cations of two different molecules switch places,
forming two entirely different compounds. These reactions are in the general form:
AB + CD → AD + CB
One example of a double displacement reaction is the reaction between plumbous nitrate with potassium iodide to form
plumbous iodide and potassium nitrate:
Pb (NO3)2 + 2 KI → PbI2 + 2 KNO3
Acid-base/Neutralization – This is a special kind of double displacement reaction that takes place when an acid and
base react with each other. The H+ ion in the acid reacts with the OH- ion in the base, causing the formation of water.
Generally, the product of this reaction is some ionic salt and water:
HA + BOH → H2O BA
One example of an acid-base reaction is the reaction of hydrobromic acid with sodium hydroxide:
HBr + NaOH → NaBr + H2O
Combustion – A combustion reaction is when oxygen combines with another compound (usually a hydrocarbon) to
form water and carbon dioxide. These reactions are usually exothermic (meaning they produce heat). An example of
this kind of reaction is the burning of naphthalene:
C10H8 + O2 → 10 CO2 + 4 H2O

1. Write a balanced chemical equation for each of the following:
a. The reaction of magnesium oxide with iron to form iron(III) oxide and magnesium.
b. The decomposition of dinitrogen oxide gas to its elements.
c. The reaction of solid calcium carbide with water to form calcium hydroxide and
acetylene (C2H2) gas.
d. The reaction of solid calcium cyanamide (CaCN2) with water to form calcium
carbonate and ammonia gas.
e. Propane (C3H8) burns in excess air (oxygen).

Topics 18 Stoichiometry: Mole-mole, mass-mass problems
Mole-Mole Problems
These problems are used to calculate the number of moles of substance that will react with or be produced by a
given number of moles of substance A. The general form of the math equation will be:
Moles A → Moles B
Lest go back to the shuttle fuel reaction to see this type of problem:
N2H4 + 2 H2O2 → N2 ↑ + 4 H2O ↑
1.
If 275 moles of N2H4 are required to fuel a space shuttle, how many moles of H2O2 will you need?
Staying with our space theme, here’s another problem … In a spaceship, the carbon dioxide exhaled by an
astronaut is often removed by its reaction with lithium hydroxide, which forms lithium carbonate and water as its
products.
2.
Write the balanced equation for this reaction.
3.
The average person exhales 20 moles of carbon dioxide. How many moles of lithium hydroxide would be
needed to react with this amount of carbon dioxide?
4.
The unbalanced equation for the synthesis of ammonia is N2 + H2 → NH3. How many moles of H2 are
required to produce 6 moles of NH3?
23
Mass-Mass Problems
In this type of problem, you will determine the mass of a substance that will react with, or be produced by a given mass
of a second substance. The general form of the math equation will be:
Mass A → Moles A → Moles B → Mass B
This is a 3 step problem that will require 3 conversion factors – the molar mass of A, the mole ratio of substance B to
substance A, and the molar mass of substance B.
Mass Mass Problems
1. Write the balanced chemical equation.
2. Write the amount given under the formula for that substance.
3. Identify what is being sought.
4. Write a “?” under the formula for that substance.
5. Convert g of the given compound to moles by multiplying by a conversion factor.
6. Convert moles of the given compound to moles of the compound sought by multiplying by a mole ratio.
7. Convert moles of the compound sought to g by multiplying by a conversion factor.
Remember
 The equation must be balanced.
 The units in the conversion factors/mole ratios must cancel.
 The numbers in the mole ratio come from the balanced chemical equation.
 The number of moles in the conversion factor is always 1.
 The mass in the conversion factor is the molar mass.
