AP Problem Set:
Summer Assignment (2012)
1
Yes, it is the end of a long school year and after final exams you do not want to even think of opening
a school book again for a very long time. Sorry! A little refresher is in order before we start off in
September. You have some review chapters to read and some problems to work out. Since these
problems will be graded, it is important that you take them seriously! In addition, a few class periods
at the start of the school year will be used for questions on these assigned problems and then you will
be tested on the material. This material is definitely not busy work to make your summer miserable!!
The assignment is due on the first day of class in September.
The work assigned covers chapters 1-4 in your Zumdahl textbook. If you have difficulty with any of
the assignments, use your Study Guide (Zumdahl) as an aide.
If you have any questions, please email your teacher.
Summer Assignment Part 1
For the first part of the assignment, complete the blue odd-numbered problems at the end of
chapters 1, 2, and 3. Start with the “Questions” section and go up to, but not including, the
“Additional Exercises”. The answers are in the back of the book, so you can check yourself.
Remember:
 To receive credit for any math problems, you must show all work (this means use
dimensional analysis)! Credit will not be given otherwise – even if a numerical
answer is “correct”! Also make sure all numerical answers have the correct units
and appropriate number of significant figures
 If it is a descriptive problem, a sentence is required.
 One-word or one-number answers will not count for credit.

Summer Assignment Part 2
Writing Net Ionic Equations
The first three chapters in your textbook reminded you of how to write formulas and
balance equations. For the AP Chemistry exam, all equations must be written in net ionic
form and you must be able to recognize types of reactions and then predict products.
We will be writing net ionic equations all year and our beginning lab work will involve
recognizing types of reactions and predicting products. The pages that follow give
tutorials for recognizing types of reactions. The first section of this assignment will have
you predicting products for a given type of reaction and then writing balanced equations.
The final sections of this assignment will be a “mixed review” where you will have to
recognize the type of reaction before being able to predict the products and write the
balanced equations! You will also be asked to write net ionic equations, rather than just
molecular equations.
Write the balanced molecular equations for exercises 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. As you do these
exercises you will be learning your solubility rules, strong and weak electrolytes, and
decomposition products.
Write the balanced molecular equations for exercise 6, the write the balanced overall
ionic equations for exercise 6 and then write the balanced net ionic equations for
exercise 6.
Now go back to your answers to exercises 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and write balanced net ionic
equations for each problem that goes to completion. (Remember, sometimes the overall
ionic and net ionic equations are the same; sometimes the molecular equation is all there
is and there are no ions at all!
Do the equations in order and on separate paper not the pages of the tutorial packet.
Bring the tutorial pages to class on the second class in September and we will discuss the
work.

Exercise 1. Synthesis and Decompostion Reactions
Synthesis reactions occur when two or more reactants combine to form a single product.
There are several common types of synthesis reactions.
A metal combines with a nonmetal to form a binary salt.
Example: A piece of lithium metal is dropped into a container of nitrogen gas.
6Li + N2 → 2Li3N
Metallic oxides and water form bases (metallic hydroxides).
Example: Solid sodium oxide is added to water.
Na2O + HOH  2NaOH
Example: Solid magnesium oxide is added to water.
MgO + HOH → Mg(OH)2
Nonmetallic oxides and water form acids. The nonmetal retains its oxidation number.
Example: Carbon dioxide is bubbled into water.
CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 (Oxidation number of C = +4)
Example: Dinitrogen pentoxide is bubbled into water.
N2O5 + H2O → 2HNO3
Metallic oxides and nonmetallic oxides form salts.
Example: Solid sodium oxide is added to carbon dioxide.
Na2O + CO2 → Na2CO3
Example: Solid calcium oxide is added to sulfur trioxide.
CaO + SO3 → CaSO4
Decomposition reactions occur when a single reactant is broken down into two or more
products.
Metallic carbonates decompose into metallic oxides and carbon dioxide.
Example: A sample of magnesium carbonate is heated.
MgCO3 → MgO and CO2
Metallic chlorates decompose into metallic chlorides and and oxygen.
Example: A sample of magnesium chlorate is heated.
Mg(ClO3)2 → MgCl2 + 3O2
Ammonium carbonate decomposes into ammonia, water and carbon dioxide.
Example: A sample of ammonium carbonate is heated.
(NH4)2CO3 → 2NH3 + H20 + CO2
4
Sulfurous acid decomposes into sulfur dioxide and water.
Example: A sample of sulfurous acid is heated.
H2SO3 → H2O + SO2
Carbonic acid decomposes into carbon dioxide and water.
Example: A sample of carbonic acid is heated.
H2CO3 → H2O + CO2
Ammonium hydroxide decomposes into ammonia and water.
Example: A sample of ammonium hydroxide is heated.
NH4OH  NH3 + H2O
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes into water and oxygen.
Example: A sample of hydrogen peroxide is heated.
2H2O2  2H2O + O2
A binary compound may break down into two elements.
Example: Molten sodium chloride is electrolyzed.
2NaCl  2Na + Cl2
Your Turn! Predict and balance the following synthesis and decomposition
reactions. Use abbreviations to indicate the phase (aq, s, l, or g) of reactants and
products where possible. Write answers on a separate page!
1. A sample of calcium carbonate is heated.
2. Sulfur dioxide gas is bubbled through water.
1. Solid potassium oxide is added to a container of carbon dioxide gas.
2. Liquid hydrogen peroxide is warmed.
3. Solid lithium oxide is added to water.
4. Molten aluminum chloride is electrolyzed.
5. A pea-sized piece of sodium is added to a container of iodine vapor.
6. A sample of carbonic acid is heated.
7. A sample of potassium chlorate is heated.
8. Solid magnesium oxide is added to sulfur trioxide gas.

Exercise 2. Single Replacement Reactions
Single replacement reactions are reactions that involve an element replacing one part of
a compound. The products include the displaced element and a new compound. An
element can only replace another element that is less active than itself.
General activity series for metals:
(Most active) Li Ca Na Mg Al Zn Fe Pb [H2] Cu Ag Pt (Least active)
General activity series for nonmetals:
(Most active) F2 Cl2 Br2 I2 (least active)
Here are some common types of single replacement reactions.
Active metals replace less active metals from their compounds in aqueous solution.
Example: Magnesium turnings are added to a solution of iron (III) chloride.
3Mg + 2FeCl3  2 Fe + 3MgCl2
Active metals replace hydrogen in water.
Example: Sodium is added to water.
2Na + 2HOH  H2 + 2NaOH
Active metals replace hydrogen in acids.
Example: Lithium is added to hydrochloric acid.
2Li + 2HCl  H2 + 2LiCl
Active nonmetals replace less active nonmetals from their compounds in aqueous
solution.
Example: Chlorine gas is bubbled into a solution of potassium iodide.
Cl2 + 2KI  I2 + 2KCl
If a less reactive metal is combined with a more reactive element in compound form,
there will be no resulting reaction.
Example: Chlorine gas is bubbled into a solution of potassium fluoride.
Cl2 + KF  no reaction
Example: Zinc is added to a solution of sodium chloride.
Zn + NaCl  no reaction
NOTE: On the AP reaction prediction section, all reactions “work”; in other words,
there will be no “no reaction” problems on the AP exam.
6
Your turn! Using the activity series, predict and balance the following single
replacement reactions. Use abbreviations to indicate the appropriate phase of
reactants and products where possible. Write answers on a separate page!
Note: Not all of the reactions will occur. For those that do not, write “no reaction”.
1. A piece of copper is dropped into a container of water.
2. Liquid bromine is added to a container of sodium iodide crystals.
3. An aluminum strip is immersed in a solution of silver nitrate.
1. Zinc pellets are added to a sulfuric acid solution.
2. Fluorine gas is bubbled into a solution of silver nitrate.
3. Magnesium turnings are added to a solution of lead (II) acetate.
4. Iodine crystals are added to a solution of sodium chloride.
5. Calcium metal is added to a solution of nitrous acid.
6. A pea-sized piece of lithium is added to water.
7. A solution of iron (III) chloride is poured over a piece of platinum wire.
Exercises 3, 4 and 5. Double Replacement (Metathesis) Reactions
In many reactions between two compounds in aqueous solution, the cations and anios
appear to switch partners according to the following equation:
AX + BY → AY + BX
The two compounds react to form two new compounds. No changes in oxidation
numbers occur. Reactions of this type are known as double replacement or metathesis
reactions. An example of such a reaction would be the mixing of aqueous solutions of
potassium bromide and silver nitrate forming insoluble silver bromide (precipitate) and
aqueous potassium nitrate;
KBr (aq) + AgNO3 (aq) → AgBr (s) + KNO3 (aq)
Note that each cation pairs up with the anion in the other compound, thus switching
partners. Anions do not pair up with anions and cations do not pair up with cations.
Likes repel; opposites attract!
7
All double replacement reaction must have a “driving force” or a reason why the reaction
will occur or “go to oompletion”. The “driving force” in metathesis reactions is the
removal of a least one pair of ions from solution. This removal can occur in one of three
ways:
1. Formation of a precipitate: A precipitate is an insoluble substance (solid) formed by
the reaction of two aqueous substances. It is the result of ions binding together so
strongly that the solvent (water) cannot pull them apart. The insoluble solid (or solids if a
double precipitate occurs!) will settle out (precipitate) from the solution and this results in
the removal of ions from solution.
2. Formation of a gas: Gases may form directly in a double replacement reaction or
from the decomposition of one of the products. The gases will bubble off or evolve from
the solution.
3. Formation of primarily molecular species: The formation of primarily unionized
molecules in solution removes ions from the solution and the reaction “works” or is said
to go to completion. Unionized or partially ionized molecules give solutions that are
known as nonelectrolytes or weak electrolytes. The best know nonelectrolyte is water
formed in acid-base neutralization reactions. Acetic acid is an example of an acid that is
primarily molecular (weak electrolyte) when placed in water.
Reversible Reactions
If a double replacement reaction does not go to completion (no precipitate, gas or
molecular species is formed), then the reaction is reversible (no ions have been removed).
Reversible reactions are at equilibrium and have both forward and reverse reactions
taking place. In a reversible reaction, evaporation of the water solvent will result in solid
residues of both reactants and products. The reaction is not driven to completion
(products) because no ions have been removed. A double arrow is used to designate a
reversible reaction at equilibrium.
BaCl2 (aq) + 2 NaNO3 (aq)  Ba(NO3)2 (aq) + 2 NaCl (aq)
Solubility Rules
The solubility classification of ionic substances according to their solubility in water is
difficult. Nothing is completely “insoluble” in water. The degree of solubility varies
from one “soluble” substance to another. Nevertheless, a solubility classification scheme
is useful even though it must be regarded as an approximate guideline. Learn the
solubility rules!
Formation of a Gas
Common gases formed in metathesis reactions are:
H2S: Any sulfide (salt of S2-) plus any acid for H2S (g) and a salt.
CO2: Any carbonate (salt of CO32-) plus any acid for CO2 (g) , HOH and a salt.
SO2: Any sulfite (salt of SO32-) plus any acid form SO2 (g), HOH and a salt.
8
NH3: Any ammonium salt (salt of NH4+) plus any soluble strong hydroxide react upon
heating to form NH3 (g), HOH and a salt.
Reactions that produce three of the gases (CO2, SO2, and NH3) involve the initial
formation of a substance that breaks down to give the gas and HOH.
Example: The reaction of Na2SO3 and HCl produces H2SO3.
Na2SO3 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) → H2SO3 (aq) + 2 NaCl (aq)
Bubbling is observed in this reaction because the H2SO3 (sulfurous acid) is
unstable and immediately decomposes to give HOH and SO2 gas:
H2SO3 (aq) → HOH (l) and SO2 (g)
The molecular equation for the complete reaction, therefore, is
Na2SO3 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) → HOH (l) + SO2 (g) + 2 NaCl (aq)
Example: A typical reaction of a carbonate and an acid is:
K2CO3 (aq) and 2HNO3 (aq) → HOH (l) + CO2 (g) + 2KNO3 (aq)
Bubbling is also observed in this reaction. Theoretically, H2CO3,
carbonic acid, is formed, but the acid is unstable and immediately
decomposes to form carbon dioxide gas and water according to the
following equation:
H2CO3 → HOH (l) and CO2 (g)
Example: Ammonium salts and soluble bases react as follows (particularly when the
solution is warmed):
NH4Cl (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NH3 (g) +HOH (l) + NaCl (aq)
The odor of ammonia gas is noted and moist red litmus paper held near the
mouth of the container will turn blue. Theoretically, NH4OH, ammonium
hydroxide, is produced (also known as ammonia water). The compound is
unstable and decomposes into ammonia gas and water:
NH4OH (aq) → NH3 (g) + HOH (l)
Example: The odor of rotten eggs and bubbling are noted when an acid is added to a
sulfide. A typical reaction producing hydrogen sulfide gas is:
FeS (s) + 2HCl (aq) → FeCl2 (aq) + H2S (g)
NOTE: Be aware of reactions involving the formation of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide,
ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gases on the AP exam. Over the years these reactions
have appeared many, many times. Know these four gases and how they are produced!
9
Formation of a Molecular Species (Weak or Nonelectrolytes)
Metathesis reactions that produce primarily molecules in the form of partially dissociated
or ionized molecules (weak electrolytes) or molecules that do not ionized of dissociated
at all (nonelectrolytes) serve as the driving force in some aqueous reactions. Forming
molecular products in double replacement reactions results in the removal of ions from
solution. Such reactions tend to go to completion (shift to the right) and form primarily
products.
General rules:
1. The six common strong acids, and thus strong electrolytes, are HClO4, HCl, HBr, HI,
HNO3 and H2SO4. (Memorize these!) All other common acids are weak acids and thus
weak electrolytes. (HC2H3O2 or CH3COOH, H3PO4, HF and HNO2 are examples of
weak acids. Note: All organic acids (R-COOH) are weak electrolytes.) All strong acids
in their pure form (as opposed to dilute aqueous form!) are nonelectrolytes (molecular).
When water is added, the action of the solvent water with a strong acid produces a
hydrated proton (hydronium ion) and a negatively charged anion. The process of making
ions from molecular species is known as ionization. Strong acids ionize 100% in water.
An example of a strong electrolyte undergoing ionization is as follows:
HCl (aq) + H2O (l) → H3O+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
This reaction may be abbreviated as:
HCl (aq) → H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
2. The common strong bases are the soluble hydroxides (those of Group IA elements and
Ba2+) and the slightly soluble hydroxides (those of Ca2+ and Sr2+). Strong bases, like
strong acids, are strong electrolyte. (Memorize these!) NH4OH is a soluble weak
electrolyte which normally decomposes into NH3 (g) and HOH (l). Technically speaking,
the pure compound ammonium hydroxide has never been isolated and the substance is
more correctly known as aqueous ammonia. Most other hydroxides are insoluble. Pure
liquid hydroxides are strong hydroxides because they already contain ions. The action of
the solvent water releasing the ions of a base into solution is known as dissociation.
Acids ionize in water; bases dissociate.
3. Most common (soluble) salts are strong electrolytes and thus dissociate inot ions when
placed into water.
4. Water is a weak electrolyte which is typically produced in acid-base neutralization
reactions.
Some examples of weak electrolytes forming as products (shown in bold):
Ca(CH3COO)2 (aq) + 2HCl (aq) → CaCl2 (aq) + 2CH3COOH (aq)
2Na3PO4 (aq) + 3H3PO4 (aq) → 3Na2SO4 (aq) + 2H3PO4 (aq)
HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaCl (aq) + HOH (l)
10
Acid-Base Neutralization Reactions
Acids react with bases to produce salts and water. One mole of hydrogen ions will react
with one mole of hydroxide ions to produce one mole of water. Learn which acids are
strong (written in ionic form!) and which acids are weak (written in molecular form)!
Check the solubility rules for the solubility of the salt produced! If it is soluble, it is
written in ionic form; if it is insoluble it is written in molecular form.
Acid + Base → Salt + Water
(A salt consists of a cation from a base and an anion from an acid. For example, the salt
sodium sulfate contains sodium ions form sodium hydroxide and sulfate ions from
sulfuric acid.)
Example: Hydrogen sulfide gas is bubbled through excess potassium hydroxide solution.
H2S (g) + KOH (aq) → K2S (aq) + 2HOH (l)
Polyprotic acids can be tricky when it comes to predicting neutralization reactions.
Sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid are classic examples frequently encountered on AP
exams. If the base is in excess, all hydrogen ions will react with the strong base to
produce water.
Example: Dilute sulfuric acid is reacted with excess sodium hydroxide solution.
H2SO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → Na2SO4 (aq) + 2HOH (l)
If, however, the reaction above stated that equal numbers of moles of sulfureic acid and
sodium hydroxide react, then the coefficients for both reactants must be one and the salt
that forms is sodium hydrogen sulfate.
Example: Equal number of moles of sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide solution mix.
H2SO4 (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaHSO4 (aq) + HOH (l)
Take into account information dealing with the quantity of each reactant!
Example: Equal volumes of 0.1M phosphoric acid and 0.2M sodium hydroxide are
mixed together.
H3PO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → Na2PO4 (aq) + 2HOH (l)
Watch for substances that react with water before reacting with an acid or a base. The
acid and basic anhydrides behave in such a manner. These are really two-step reactions.
Example: Excess sulfur dioxide gas is bubbled into a saturated solution of calcium
hydroxide.
SO2 (g) + Ca(OH)2 (aq) → CaSO3 (s) + HOH (l)
(Remember, SO2 (g) is an acid anhydride!)
11
If an acid + base yields a salt + water, then an acid anhydride + basic anhydride will
yield a salt.
Example: Sulfur dioxide gas and solid calcium oxide are reacted together.
SO2 (g) + CaO (s) → CaSO3 (s)
(SO2 (g) is the acid anhydride for sulfurous acid; CaO (s) is the basic anhydride
for calcium hydroxide.)
Exercise 3. Formation of a Precipitate
Predict and balance the following metathesis reactions based on the solubility of the

Aqueous Solutions and Ionic Equations
It is now time to concentrate on writing chemical equations in the form required for the
AP Chem exam! All equations in the previous sections were written as if the reactants
and products were molecular. In overall (total) ionic equations, formulas of the
reactants and products are written to show the predominant form of each substance as it
13
exists in aqueous solution. Soluble salts, strong acids and strong bases are written as
separated ions. Insoluble salts, suspensions, solids, weak acids, weak gases, gases, water
and organic compounds are always written as individual molecules. Consider the
following molecular equation:
Cd(NO3)2 (aq) + Na2S (aq) → CdS (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq)
The overall ionic equation for this reaction is
Cd2+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) + 2Na+ (aq) + S2- (aq) → CdS (s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3- (aq)
Note that this equation illustrates that cadmium nitrate dissociates into three ions (one
cadmium ion and two nitrate ions); sodium sulfide dissociates into two sodium ions and
one sulfide ion; the soluble sodium nitrate formed remains dissociated as two sodium
and two nitrate ions. The precipitated (insoluble) cadmium is undissociated. Also note
that the parentheses that appear in a molecular formula are not used when representing
the ionic form in solution. For example, dissociated cadmium nitrate contains no
parentheses.
Note: The only common substances that should be written as ions in ionic equations
are soluble salts, strong acids and strong bases.
Net ionic equations are written to show only the species that react or undergo change in
aqueous solution. The net ionic equation is obtained by eliminating the spectator ions
form an overall ionic equation. All that is left are the ions that have changed chemically.
Spectators at a sporting event watch the action unfolding in front of them rather than
participating; spectator ions likewise do not participate in the reaction. The elimination
of spectator ions allows us to concentrate only on the reacting species.
Molecular equations provide complete chemical formulas which are of necessity when it
comes to doing stoichiometric calculations. Overall ionic equations, the intermediated
between molecular and net ionic equations, show what is happening to all species in the
solution. Such equations are very helpful when dealing with hydrolysis, electrical
conductivity, and colligative properties. Net ionic equations are the simplest form of
equations and show only the reacting species.
Molecular:
Cd(NO3)2 (aq) + Na2S (aq) → CdS (s) + 2NaNO3 (aq)
Overall Ionic
Cd2+ (aq) + 2NO3- (aq) + 2Na+ (aq) + S2- (aq) → CdS (s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3- (aq)
(The spectator ions have been highlighted in bold!)
Net Ionic
Cd2+ (aq) + S2- (aq) → CdS (s)
14
Example: Aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid and excess sodium hydroxide are reacted.
H2SO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → 2 HOH (l) + Na2SO4 (aq)
H+ + HSO4- + 2Na+ +2OH- → 2HOH (l) + 2Na+ (aq) + SO42- (aq)
H+ + HSO4- + 2OH- → 2HOH (l) + SO42- (aq)
Special note: The first proton in sulfuric acid is ionized completely; the second
proton is only partially ionized. Sulfuric acid is the only polyprotic acid that
exhibits this property. All other polyprotic acids are weak and are written in their
molecular forms!
Example: Aqueous solutions of sulfuric acid and excess sodium hydroxide are
combined.
H2SO4 (aq) + Ba(OH)2 (aq) → 2 HOH (l) + BaSO4 (s)
H+ + HSO4- + Ba2+ +2OH- → 2HOH + BaSO4
H+ + HSO4- + Ba2+ +2OH- → 2HOH + BaSO4
Example: Sodium acetate undergoes hydrolysis when placed in water.
NaCH3COO (aq) + HOH (l) → NaOH (aq) + CH3COOH (aq)
Na+ + CH3COO- + HOH → Na+ + OH- + CH3COOH
CH3COO- + HOH → OH- + CH3COOH
Example: Equal volumes of 0.2 M potassium hydroxide and 0.2 M phosphoric acid are
reacted.
KOH (aq) + H3PO4 (aq) → HOH (l) + KH2PO4 (aq)
K+ + OH- + H3PO4 → HOH (l) + K+ + H2PO4OH- + H3PO4 → HOH (l) + H2PO4Example: Aqueous solutions of potassium chromate and silver nitrate are reacted.
K2CrO4 (aq) + 2AgNO3 (aq) → 2KNO3 (aq) + Ag2CrO4 (s)
2K+ + CrO42- + 2Ag+ + 2NO3- → 2K+ + 2NO3- + Ag2CrO4 (s)
CrO42- + 2Ag+ → Ag2CrO4 (s)
15
Example: Aqueous ammonium sulfide reacts with excess aqueous lithium hydroxide.
(NH4)2S (aq) + 2LiOH (aq) → Li2S (aq) + 2NH3 (g) + 2HOH (l)
2NH4- + S- + 2Li+ + OH- → 2Li+ +S2- + 2NH3 (g) + 2HOH (l)
2NH4- + OH- → 2NH3 (g) + 2HOH (l)
Example: Excess acetic acid reacts with aqueous ammonium sulfite.
2CH3COOH (aq) + Na2SO3 (aq) → 2NaCH3COO (aq) + HOH (l) + SO2 (g)
2CH3COOH + 2Na+ + SO3- → 2Na+ + 2CH3COO- + HOH + SO2
2CH3COOH + SO3- → 2CH3COO- + HOH + SO2
Example: Calcium carbonate in aqueous suspension reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid.
CaCO3 (s) + 2HCl (aq) → CaCl2 (aq) + HOH (l) + CO2 (g)
CaCO3 + 2H+ + 2Cl- → Ca2+ +2Cl- + HOH + CO2
CaCO3 + 2H+ → Ca2+ + HOH + CO2
