1 Reactions On the A.P. Test there will be one question (question #4) that will say: Give the formulas to show the reactants and the products for the following chemical reactions. Each occurs in aqueous solution unless otherwise indicated. Represent substances in solution as ions if the substance is extensively ionized. Omit formulas for any ions or molecules that are unchanged by the reaction. In all cases a reaction occurs. You need to balance the equation and answer the question that follows it.. Some suggestions: Identify what type of reaction it is: redox, combustion, single replacement, acid-base, precipitation, etc. Use your knowledge of these types of rxns to determine where to go from there. Remember that when things form they make common substances, not complex ones. If your answer looks complicated, it is probably wrong. Only do net ionic reactions. Identify those species that are actually going to react, the rest you can ignore. Make sure you know the solubility rules. What substances will precipitate? Make sure you know the strong acids and bases. Types of Reactions: Reactions with no changes in Oxidation Numbers I. Dissociation Reactions of Salts in Aqueous Solutions: (3,4,5,6) dissociation: When ionic compounds dissolve in water the ions which compose these compounds separate from each other and enter the solution as more or less independent particles (ions): Cations or anions NaCl ----> Na+1(aq) + Cl-(aq) H2SO4(l) ----> Na+(aq) + HSO4-(aq) II. Nonmetallic oxides react with H2O to form acids This is called an acid anhydride + H2O ----> H2SO4 + H2O ----> H33O+(aq) + HSO4N2O5(g) + H2O ----> 2 HNO3 + H2O ----> 2 H3O+ + 2 NO3- SO3(g) III. Metallic Oxides react with H2O to form bases. Called a basic anhydride Na2O(s) + H2O ----> 2 NaOH + H2O (l) ----> 2 Na+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) IV. Some Decomposition Reactions 2 A. Base ----> metal oxide + water Ca(OH)2 ----> CaO + H2O B. Salt containing oxygen ----> metal oxide + nonmetal oxide CaCO3 ---->CaO + CO2 C. Acid containing oxygen ----> water + nonmetal oxide H2CO3 ----> H2O + CO2 V. Metallic oxides + nonmetallic oxides ----> Salt CaO(s) + SO2 (g) ----> CaSO3 (s) VI. Reactions of Coordination compounds These are called “complex” ions. (Though an ion is not always made). It involves adding a ligand to a 4th row transition metal, and a few other selected metals. The most common ligands include: ammonia (NH3), water, hydroxide (OH-), thiocynate (SCN-), and cyanide (CN-). The number of ligands that attach to the metal will almost always be double the amount of the charge on the metal. To determine the final charge, add the total charge from the metal to the sum of the charges from all of the ligands. Cu2+ + OH- ----> Cu(OH)42VI. Ionization Reactions of Molecular Compounds Ionization: One example of ionization is when a molecular substance dissolves in water and produces ions. HCl(g) + H2O ---> H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq) HF(aq) + H2O ---> H3O+(aq) + F- (aq) Molecular Equations Complete formulas of all reactants and products are written as if they were molecules. No explicit indication has been made that the soluble compounds are actually dissociated into ions, so “molecular” in this context means only that complete formulas are used. Cd(NO3)2(aq) + Na2S(aq) ---> CdS(s) + 2 NaNO3(aq) Ionic Equations: All strong electrolytes are shown ionized Cd2+(aq) + 2 NO3-(aq) + 2 Na+(aq) + S2-(aq) ---> CdS(s) + 2 Na+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) Net Ionic Equations: Cd2+(aq) + S2-(aq) ---> CdS(s) YOU MUST LEARN THE SOLUBILITY RULES: THEY MUST BE MEMORIZED!!! What to do when a nonsoluble reactant is used: 3 Molecular Equation Mg(OH)2(s) + 2 HCl(aq) ---> MgCl2(aq) + 2H2O Ionic Equation Mg(OH)2(s) + 2 H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) ---> Mg2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + 2H2O Net Ionic Equation Mg(OH)2(s) + 2 H+(aq) Mg2+(aq) + 2 H2O When a Weak Electrolyte is the Reactant Molecular Equation NaC2H3O2(aq) + HCl(aq) ---> HC2H3O2(aq) + NaCl (aq) Ionic Equation Na+(aq) + C2H3O2-(aq) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) ---> HC2H3O2(aq) + Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) Net Ionic Equation C2H3O2-(aq) + H+(aq) ---> HC2H3O2 Reactions in Which a Gas Forms Molecular Equation 2 HCl(aq) + Na2S(aq) ---> 2NaCl(aq) + H2S(g) Ionic Equation 2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + 2Na+(aq) + S2-(aq) --> 2H2S(g) + 2Na+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) Net Ionic Equation 2H+(aq) + S2-(aq) ---> H2S(g) Reactions when Oxidation Numbers do change I. Rules for Oxidation Numbers The oxidation number of any free element (an element not combined chemically with a different element) is zero, regardless of how complex its molecules might be. The oxidation number for any simple, monoatomic ion is equal to the charge on the ion. The sum of all the oxidation numbers of the atoms in a molecule or ion must be equal the charge of the particle. In its compound, fluorine has an oxidation of -1 4 In its compounds, hydrogen has an oxidation number of +, except hen combined with metals when it is -1 In its compounds, oxygen has an oxidation number of -2, except in forming peroxides then it is -1. All Group I metals in compounds have a charge of +1 All Group II metals in compounds have a charge of +2 All Halogens have a charge of -1 when combined with metals in binary compounds II. Balancing Redox Equations A. Half-Reaction (Acidic Solution) 1. Divide the skeleton equation into half-reactions 2. Balance atoms other than H & O 3. Balance oxygen by adding H2O to the side that needs O 4. Balance hydrogen by adding H+ to the side that needs H 5. Balance the charge by adding electrons 6. Make the number of electrons gained equal to the number lost and then add the two half-reactions 7. Cancel anything that is the same on both sides. B. Half-Reactions Method (Basic Solution) 1-7 Same as A above 8. Add to both sides of the equation the same number of OH- as there are H+ 9. Combine H+ and OH- to form H2O 10. Cancel any H2O that you can III. Types of Redox Reactions A. Simple Redox 1. Hydrogen Displacement Ca(s) + 2H2O(l) --> Ca(OH)2(s) + H2 2. Metal Displacement Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) ---> ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s) 3. Halogen Displacement Cl2(g) + KBr(aq) ----> 2KCl(aq) + Br2(l) 4. Combustion CH4(g) + 2O2(g) ---> CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) B. Disportionation This is where one substance both oxidizes and reduces Cl2(g) + 2OH-(aq) ------> OCl-(aq) + Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) 5 C. Reactions involving oxoanions such as Cr2O7214H+(aq) + Cr2O72- + 6 Fe2+ ---> Cr3+ + 7 H2O + 6 Fe3+ IV.

The oxidation numbers of at least two elements must change. Single replacement, some combination and some decomposition reactions are redox reactions. To predict the products of a redox reaction, look at the reagents given to see if there is both an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent. When a problem mentions an acidic or basic solution, it is probably is redox. 6 #1: (a) (b) (c) #2: (a) (b) (c) #3: (a) (b) (c) #4: (a) (b) (c) #5: (a) (b) (c) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) (ii) (i) a solution containing iodide ions is added to a solution containing iron (III) ion.
