11 Bohr Model

Neils Bohr:

1. Only orbits of certain radii, corresponding to certain definate energies are permitted for the electron ina hydrogen atom.

2. An electron in a permitted orbit has a specific energy and is in an allowed energy state. An electron inan allowed state will not radiate energy and therefore will not spiral into the nucleus.

3. Energy is emmitted or absorbed by the e− only as the e− changes from one allowed energy state toanother.

4. Flawed theory because it only works for hydrogen

15.4 Nuclear Stability

Understanding why are some nuclides are radioactive while others are not.

15.4.1 Forces Invloved

• Electrostatic. Try to rip apart the nucleus because of like charges

• Strong Nuclear. Try to pull together the nucleus because subatomic particles naturally stick together

• The Glue. Neutrons act as the glue and more of it is required when the electrostatic force gets really strong

15.4.2 Belt of Stability

• Area A. More neutrons than protons - Beta decay → creates protons

• Area B. Less neutrons than protons - Positron emission (Smaller B) or Electron Capture (Larger B)

• Area C. Every element above 83 p+ is radioactive and no glue can hold it together - Alpha decay

15.4.3 Magic Numbers

The Magic Numbers tend to be stable if you have either a proton or neutron in those numbers. If you haveboth, they are very stable.

• If (p+) and (n◦) even → likely stable

• If either is odd → could go either way

17 Reactions of Metals

Metal Oxides = Basic

• Metal + O2(Li or any non-Alkali metal) → Metal Oxide

• K + O2(Any other Alkali metal) → Metal Peroxide (O−12 )

. K + O2 → KO2

• Metal Oxide + H2O → Metal Hydroxide

. Na2O +H2O → NaOH

• Metal Oxide + Acid → Salt + H2O

. Na2O +HCL→ NaCl +H2O

Nonmetal Oxides = Acidic

. SO2 +H2O → H2SO3

. P4O10 +H2O → H3PO4

• Nonmetal Oxide + Base → Salt + H2O

. CO2 +NaOH → Na2CO3 +H2O

18 Chemical Bonds

When 2 or more atoms are strongly attached (attracted) to each other.

18.1 Intramolecular

These forces act inside an atom or molecule:

17

18.1.1 Ionic Bonding

Gain/lose e−s (strong metal + strong nonmetal)

18.1.2 Covalent Bonding

Share e−s (weak metal or nonmetal + nonmetal)

18.1.3 Metallic Bonding

There are two models that explain metallic bonding:

• Electron Sea Model 1

. Metal atoms are floating in a sea of e−s. No one e− belongs to any particular atom.

• Orbital Bonding Model

. The valence e−s are overlapped and shared so much you have bonds of delocalized e−s that arefree to move but are still holding the atoms together.

Properties that result from metallic bonding include:

• Conductivity of electricity and heat

• Malibility and ductility

• Ability to form alloys

18.2 Intermolecular

These forces act between molecules:

18.2.1 Ion-Dipole

Ions bonding to molecules with a dipole (polver solvent). The strongest intermolecular force.

18.2.2 Dipole-Dipole

Polar near another polar. Weaker than Ion-Dipole but still strong, based on how strong thepolarity is.

18.2.3 Hydrogen Bond

Either (H −N), (H −O), or (H − F ). No shielding e−s on Hydrogen so central atoms e− pair gets full pullof Hydrogen nucleus.

18.2.4 London Dispersion/Van der Waals

An induced dipole between 2 polar molecules. An increase in pressure or decrease in temperature will causeone side to have a more positive force as the majority of e−s move to other side.

1Of the two theories, this is generally the more accepted one

18

18.2.5 Intermolecular Flowchart

18.3 Rule of Octet

Atoms tend to bond in such a way as to gain, lose, or share e−s in order to gain a complete valence (outer sand p).

19 Lewis Structures

19.1 Structures for Atoms

19.2 Structures for Ions

19.3 Structure for Ions of Molecules

19

19.4 Lewis Structures for Molecular Structures (Covalent)

1. Add valence e−s from all the atoms.

2. Write the symbols for the atoms. If there are more than 2 atoms, identify the central atom. Connectthem with a single line which represents 2 shared e−s. Subtract the number of e−s from total found instep 1.

. Central atom will be closest to Si, P or Metaloid staircase.

3. Complete octets around the atoms bonded to the central atom (Hydrogen does not get more than 2).

4. Place the remaining pairs around the central atom even if doing so gives more than an octet to thecentral atom.

5. If there are not enough pairs to complete an octet in the central atom, then you ned to try using doubleor triple bonds.

25.3 Alkane Branch Structure Naming

To name all single-bonded Carbon chains, see subsection on Alkanes above.

To name a branch structure first look for the longest unbroken Carbon chain, this is the root name. Thentake the root prefix of the alkyl (the branch of the root chain) and add -yl (for instance Methane becomesmethyl). Number the Carbon chain giving the side with an alkyl the lowest number. The end result shouldbe something such as 2 Methyl Butane.

29 Thermodynamics

The study of energy and its transformationsUnits of Energy:

• Joules and Calories

. 1 cal = 4.184 J

The two main driving forces of thermodynamics is Enthalpy and Entropy:

29.1 Enthalpy

Enthalpy stands for the Heat of the reaction and is denoted by ∆H.

If:

• ∆H<0

. Reaction is exothermic

• ∆H>0

. Reaction is endothermic

There are 4 ways to find ∆H.

29.1.1 Stoichiometry Problems

ExampleHow much heat is released when 3.2 grams of Hydrogen is reacted with excess Oxygen?

2H2 +O2 → 2H2O∆H◦ = −572 KJ

3.2 g H21 ∗ 1 mole H2

2.02 g H2∗ −572 KJ

2 mole H2= −453.069 KJ

Ratio = Energy ReleasedCoefficient of Hydrogen in formula

31

29.1.2 Calorimetry

Find the ∆H by running a reaction and heating or cooling a substance.

q = m ∗ c ∗∆T

• q = Heat released or absorbed

• m = Mass of what is being heated (grams)

• c = Specific heat. Unique to every substance ( Jg∗C )

. Specific heat of water is 4.184

• ∆T = Change in temperature

ExampleBurn 0.1 grams of CH4 and it heats 100 grams H2O from 20◦ C to 33.29◦ C.

q = 100 ∗ 4.184 ∗ 13.29 = 5560 J = 5.560 KJ0.1 grams CH4

1 ∗ 1 mole CH416 g CH4

= 0.00625 moles CH45.560

0.00625 = 889.6 KJMole

29.1.3 Hess Law

Multiple reactions can be added together then ∆Hs can be added together.

ExampleSi+ 2H2 → SiH4 ∆H = +34 KJ

Si+O2 → SiO2 ∆H = −911 KJMole

H2 + 12O2 → H2O ∆H = −242 KJ

2H2 + 2O2 → H2O ∆H = −484 KJMole

SiH4 + 2O2 → SiO2 + 2H2O ∆H = −1429 KJMole

29.1.4 Standard Heat of Formation

Standard heat (enthalpy) of formation (∆H◦f )2 is the energy involved in forming one mole of a chemical fromits elements under standard conditions.

a Elemental substances (O2, H2, etc.) always have a ∆H of zero.

ExampleFind the ∆H for:

29.2 Entropy

Entropy stands for the Disorder of the reaction and is denoted by ∆S.

If:

• ∆S<0

. Order is increasing

• ∆S>0

. Disorder is increasing

29.2.1 State of Matter

If:

• Solid → Liquid

. ∆S = +

• Gas → Solid

. ∆S = −

Solid Liquid GasLowest ∆S – Highest ∆S

29.2.2 Number of Moles of Gasses

a Solids and liquids do not apply

ExampleN2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)

4 moles gas → 2 moles gas | ∆S = −2 moles gas → 4 moles gas | ∆S = +

29.2.3 Pressure of Gas

• When pressure increases, disorder decreases.

• When pressure decreases, disorder increases.

ExampleWhat has more disorder?

N2 at 1 atmN2 at 0.001 atm

Answer: N2 at 0.001 atm

29.3 Gibbs Law of Free Energy

Gibbs Law determines ∆G which signifies whether a reaction is spontaneous or not.

∆G = ∆H − (T ∗∆S)

• ∆G = Free Energy in a system

• ∆H = Enthalpy (KJ)

• ∆S = Entropy (KJK )

. ∆S MUST be converted from JK to KJ

K .

• T = Temperature in Kelvin

. To convert C◦ → K add 273

If:

• ∆G<0

. Spontaneous

• ∆G>0

. Not spontaneous

31 Reaction Mechanisms

Many/most reactions do not take place in one step. If a reaction were to react in one step, then you coulduse the balanced reaction to determine the rate law. For example, assume the following occured in one step.

MgCl2 + 2Hbr → 2HCl +MgBr2

rate = k[MgCl2]1[HBr]2

In reality though, things are not always as easy.

Through experimentation we figure out that the rate law for:

NO2 + CO → NO + CO2

is

rate = k[NO2]2

Because the rate law does not link up with the equation, it is not a single step reaction.

31.1 Elementary Steps

• Unimolecular - 1 reactant

• Bimolecular - 2 reactants

• Terrmolecular - 3 reactants

32 Equilibrium

The state where the concentration or partial pressures (if it is a gas) of all the reactants and products remainconstant with time. For equilibrium to occur, the forward reaction rate must equal the reverse rate. In otherwords, the amounts do not have to be equal, but the rates must be.

37 Kinetic Molecular Theory

37.1 Postulates:

• The volume of the individual particales of a gas can be assumed to be negligible.

. So volume is determined by the space between molecules

• The gas particles are in constant motion. The pressure exerted by a gas is due to collisions of the gaswith the walls of the container.

• Gas particles are not attracted to one another.

• The average kinetic energy of a gas is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.

C) H2 at 760 torr and 0◦C

Q. Which will have the highest kinetic energy?

A. All will have the same kinetic energy

Q. Which will have a higher velocity?

A. H2 will because if all kinetic energies are constant according to the formula k =12mv2 the

smallest mass will yield the highest velocity to keep k constant.4Virtually every salt is soluable to some degree.

• WHich effuses faster, He or NO2?

. He - it moves faster because it is smaller

AP* Chemistry Chemical Foundations Chemistry: An Overview

• Matter – takes up space, has mass, exhibits inertia - composed of atoms only 100 or so different types - Water made up of one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms - Pass an electric current through it to separate the two types of atoms and they rearrange to become two different types of molecules

- reactions are reversible

Chemistry – is defined as the study of matter and energy and more importantly, the changes between them • Why study chemistry?

- become a better problem solver in all areas of your life - safety – had the Roman’s understood lead poisoning, their civilization would not have fallen - to better understand all areas of science

The Scientific Method

• A plan of attack!

The fundamental steps of the scientific method

*AP is a registered trademark of the College Board, which was not involved in the production of this product. © 2013 by René McCormick. All rights reserved.

• Good experimental design coupled with repetition is key! Theory – hypotheses are assembled in an attempt at explaining “why” the “what” happened.

• Model – we use many models to explain natural phenomenon – when new evidence is found, the model changes!

• Robert Boyle

o loved to experiment with air o created the first vacuum pump o coin and feather fell at the same rate due to gravity o in a vacuum there is no air resistance to impede the fall of either

object! o Boyle defined elements as anything that cannot be broken into

simpler substances. Boyle’s Gas Law: P1V1 = P2V2

• Scientific Laws – a summary of observed (measurable) behavior [a theory is an explanation of behavior] A law summarizes what happens; a theory (model) is an attempt to explain WHY it happens. - Law of Conservation of Mass – mass reactants = mass products - Law of Conservation of Energy – (a.k.a. first law of thermodynamics) Energy CANNOT be created NOR destroyed; can only change forms.

- Scientists are human and subjected to • Data misinterpretations • Emotional attachments to theories • Loss of objectivity • Politics • Ego • Profit motives • Fads • Wars • Religious beliefs

• Galileo – forced to recant his astronomical observations in the face of strong religious resistance

• Lavoisier – “father of modern chemistry”; beheaded due to political affiliations.

• The need for better explosives; (rapid change of solid or liquid to gas where molecules become ≈2,000

diameters farther apart and exert massive forces as a result) for wars have led to

-fertilizers that utilizes nitrogen - Nuclear devices

Chemical Foundations 2

Units of Measure A quantitative observation, or measurement, ALWAYS consists of two parts: a number and a unit. Two major measurements systems exist: English (US and some of Africa) and Metric (the rest of the globe!) • SI system – 1960 an international agreement was reached to set up a system of units so scientists everywhere

could better communicate measurements. Le Système International in French; all based upon or derived from the metric system

KNOW THE UNITS AND PREFIXES shown in BLUE !!! • Volume – derived from length; consider a cube 1m on each edge ∴1.0 m3 - A decimeter is 1/10 of a meter so (1m)3 = (10 dm)3 = 103 dm3 = 1,000 dm3 1dm3 = 1 liter (L) and is slightly larger than a quart also 1dm3 = 1 L = (10 cm)3 = 103cm3 = 1,000 cm3 = 1,000 mL AND 1 cm3 = 1 mL = 1 gram of H2O (at 4ºC if you want to be picky)

Mass vs. Weight – chemists are quite guilty of using these terms interchangeably.

o mass (g or kg) – a measure of the resistance of an object to a change in its state of motion (i.e. exhibits inertia); the quantity of matter present

o weight (a force∴ has units of Newtons) – the response of mass to gravity; since all of our measurements will be made here on Earth, we consider the acceleration due to gravity a constant so we’ll use the terms interchangeably as well although it is technically incorrect! We “weigh” chemical quantities on a balance NOT a scale!!

Exercise 1 Precision and Accuracy To check the accuracy of a graduated cylinder, a student filled the cylinder to the 25-mL mark using water delivered from a buret and then read the volume delivered. Following are the results of five trials: Trial Volume Shown by Volume Shown Graduated Cylinder by the Buret 1 25 mL 26.54 mL 2 25 mL 26.51 mL 3 25 mL 26.60 mL 4 25 mL 26.49 mL 5 25 mL 26.57 mL Average 25 mL 26.54 mL Is the graduated cylinder accurate? Note that the average value measured using the buret is significantly different from 25 mL. Thus, this graduated cylinder is not very accurate. It produces a systematic error (in this case, the indicated result is low for each measurement).

Gravity – varies with altitude here on planet Earth • The closer you are to the center of the Earth, the stronger the gravitational field

SINCE it originates from the center of the Earth. • Every object has a gravitational field – as long as you’re on Earth, they are masked

since the Earth’s field is so HUGE compared to the object’s. • The strength of the gravitational field ∝ mass • Ever seen astronauts in space that are “weightless” since they are very far removed

from the center of Earth? Notice how they are constantly “drawn” to the sides of the ship and must push away?

• The ships’ mass is greater than the astronaut’s mass ∴ “g” is greater for the ship and the astronaut is attracted to the ship just as you are attracted to Earth! The moon has

61 the mass of the Earth ∴ you would experience6

1 the gravitational field you

experience on Earth and ∴ you’d WEIGH 61 of what you weigh on Earth.

Precision and Accuracy - Accuracy – correctness; agreement of a measurement with the true value - Precision – reproducibility; degree of agreement among several measurements. - Random or indeterminate error – equal probability of a measurement being high or low - Systematic or determinate error – occurs in the same direction each time

The results of several dart throws show the difference between precise and accurate. (a) Neither nor precise (large random errors). (b) Precise but not accurate (small random errors, large systematic error). (c) Bull’s-eye! Both precise and accurate (small random errors, no systematic error).

Significant Figures and Calculations

Determining the Number of Significant Figures (or Digits) in a Measurement • Nonzero digits are significant. (Easy enough to identify!) • A zero is significant IF and ONLY IF it meets one of the conditions below:

- The zero in question is “terminating AND right” of the decimal [must be both] - The zero in question is “sandwiched” between two significant figures

• Exact or counting numbers have an ∞ amount of significant figures as do fundamental constants (never to be confused with derived constants)

Reporting the Result of a Calculation to the Proper Number of Significant Figures • When × and ÷ , the term with the least number of significant figures (∴least accurate measurement)

determines the number of maximum number of significant figures in the answer. (It’s helpful to underline the digits in the least significant number as a reminder.)

4.56 × 1.4 = 6.38 →corrected 6.4

• When + and (−), the term with the least number of decimal places (∴least accurate measurement) determines the number of significant figures in the final answer.

12.11 18.0 ← limiting term (only 1 decimal place) 1.013 31.123 corrected→ 31.1 (limits the overall answer to only one decimal place)

• pH – the number of significant figures in least accurate measurement determines number decimal places on the reported pH (usually explained in the appendix of your text)

Rounding Guidelines for the AP Exam and This Course:

• Round ONLY at the end of all calculations (keep the numbers in your calculator) • Examine the significant figure one place beyond your desired number of significant figures.

IF > 5 round up; < 5 drop the remaining digits. • Don’t “double round”! Example: The number 7.348 rounded to 2 SF is reported as 7.3

In other words, DO NOT look beyond the 4 after the decimal and think that the 8 rounds the 4 up to a five which in turn makes the final answer 7.4. [Even though you may have conned a teacher into rounding your final average this way before!]

Exercise 2 Significant Figures (SF) Give the number of significant figures for each of the following experimental results. a. A student’s extraction procedure on a sample of tea yields 0.0105 g of caffeine. b. A chemist records a mass of 0.050080 g in an analysis. c. In an experiment, a span of time is determined to be 8.050 × 10‒3 s .

a. three; b. five; c. four

Dimensional Analysis Example: Consider a straight pin measuring 2.85 cm in length. Calculate its length in inches. Start with a conversion factor such as 2.54 cm = 1 inch ∴ you can write TWO

Conversion factors: 1 in

2.54 cm or

2.54 cm

1 in. Why is this legal? Both quantities

represent the exact same “thing” so the conversion factor is actually equal to “1”. To convert the length of the pin from cm to inches, simply multiply your given quantity by a conversion factor you engineer so that it “cancels” the undesirable unit and places the desired unit where you want it. For our example, we want inches in the numerator so our numerical answer is not reported in reciprocal inches! Thus,

2.85 cm1 in

2.54 cm× = 1.12 in

Let’s practice!

Exercise 3 A pencil is 7.00 in. long. Calculate the length in centimeters?

17.8 cm

Exercise 4 You want to order a bicycle with a 25.5-in. frame, but the sizes in the catalog are given only in centimeters. What size should you order? 64.8 in

Exercise 5 A student has entered a 10.0-km run. How long is the run in miles? We have kilometers, which we want to change to miles. We can do this by the following route:

kilometers → meters → yards → miles To proceed in this way, we need the following equivalence statements (conversion factors):

1 km = 1000 m 1 m = 1.094 yd

1760 yd = 1 mi

6.22 mi

Chemical Foundations 6

Temperature I suspect you are aware there are three temperature scales commonly in use today. A comparison follows:

Notice a degree of temperature change on the Celsius scale represents the same quantity of change on the Kelvin scale.

Exercise 6 The speed limit on many highways in the United States is 55 mi/h. What number would be posted if expressed in kilometers per hour?

88 km/h

Exercise 7 A Japanese car is advertised as having a fuel economy of 15 km/L. Convert this rating to miles per gallon.

Chemical Foundations 7

Density Classification of Matter States of Matter (mostly a vocabulary lesson) � Be very, very clear that changes of state involve altering IMFs not altering actual chemical bonds!! � solid – rigid; definite shape and volume; molecules close together vibrating about fixed points

∴ virtually incompressible � liquid – definite volume but takes on the shape of the container; molecules still vibrate but also have

rotational and translational motion and can slide past one another BUT are still close together ∴ slightly compressible

� gas – no definite volume and takes on the shape of the container; molecules vibrate, rotate and translate and are independent of each other ∴ VERY far apart ∴ highly compressible

- vapor – the gas phase of a substance that is normally a solid or liquid at room temperature - fluid – that which can flow; gases and liquids

• Mixtures – can be physically separated - homogeneous – have visibly indistinguishable parts, solutions including air - heterogeneous – have visibly distinguishable parts - means of physical separation include: filtering, fractional crystallization, distillation, chromatography

Density = volume

mass

Exercise 8 Determining Density A chemist, trying to identify the main component of a compact disc cleaning fluid, determines that 25.00 cm3 of the substance has a mass of 19.625 g at 20°C. Use the information in the table below to identify which substance may serve as the main component of the cleaning fluid. Justify your answer with a calculation.

Compound Density (g/cm3) at 20°C Chloroform 1.492 Diethyl ether 0.714 Ethanol 0.789 Isopropyl alcohol 0.785 Toluene 0.867

Density = 0.7850 g / cm3∴ isopropyl alcohol

• Pure substances – compounds like water, carbon dioxide etc. and elements. Compounds can be separated into elements by chemical means - electrolysis is a common chemical method for separating compounds into elements - elements can be broken down into atoms which can be further broken down into

- nuclei and electrons - p+, n0 and e- - quarks

Electrolysis is an example of a chemical change. In this apparatus, water is decomposed to hydrogen gas (filling the red balloon) and Oxygen gas (filling the blue balloon).

AP* Chemistry ATOMS, MOLECULES & IONS

This is the highest honor given by the American Chemical Society. Priestly discovered oxygen. Ben Franklin got him interested in electricity and he observed graphite conducts an electric current. Politics forced him out of England and he died in the US in 1804. The back side, pictured below was given to Linus Pauling in 1984. Pauling was the only person to win Nobel Prizes in TWO Different fields: Chemistry and Peace.

THE EARLY HISTORY OF CHEMISTRY

• 1,000 B.C.—processing of ores to produce metals for weapons and ornaments; use of embalming fluids

• 400 B.C.—Greeks—proposed all matter was make up of 4 “elements”: fire, earth, water and air

• Democritus—first to use the term atomos to describe the ultimate, smallest particles of matter

• Next 2,000 years—alchemy—a pseudoscience where people sought to turn metals into gold. Much was learned from the plethora of mistakes alchemists made.

• 16th century—Georg Bauer, German , refined the process of extracting metals from ores & Paracelsus, Swiss, used minerals for medicinal applications

• Robert Boyle, English—first “chemist” to perform quantitative experiments of pressure versus volume. Developed a working definition for “elements”.

• 17th & 18th Centuries—Georg Stahl, German—suggested “phlogiston” flowed OUT of burning material. An object stopped burning in a closed container since the air was “saturated with phlogiston”

• Joseph Priestley, English—discovered oxygen which was originally called “dephlogisticated air”

FUNDAMENTAL CHEMICAL LAWS

• late 18th Century—Combustion studied extensively • CO2, N2, H2 and O2 discovered • list of elements continued to grow • Antione Lavoisier, French—explained the true

nature of combustion—published the first modern chemistry textbook AND stated the Law of Conservation of Mass. The French Revolution broke out the same year his text was published. He once collected taxes for the government and was executed with a guillotine as an enemy of the people in 1794. He was the

first to insist on quantitative experimentation. THE LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS:

Mass is neither created nor destroyed.

• 1808--John Dalton stated the Law of Definite proportions. He later went on to develop the Atomic Theory of Matter.

THE LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS: A given compound always contains exactly the same proportions of elements by mass.

THE LAW OF MULTIPLE PROPORTIONS: When two elements combine to form a series of compounds, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with 1 gram of the first element can always be reduced to small whole numbers. Dalton considered compounds of carbon and oxygen and determined:

Mass of Oxygen that combines with 1 gram of C

Compound I 1.33 g Compound II 2.66 g

Therefore, Compound I may be CO while Compound II may be CO2.

Exercise 1 Illustrating the Law of Multiple Proport ions The following data were collected for several compounds of nitrogen and oxygen: Mass of Nitrogen That Combines With 1 g of Oxygen Compound A 1.7500 g Compound B 0.8750 g Compound C 0.4375 g Show how these data illustrate the law of multiple proportions.

A = 1.7500 = 2 B 0.8750 1

B = 0.8750 = 2

C 0.4375 1

A = 1.750 = 4 C 0.4375 1

DALTON’S ATOMIC THEORY

Postulates of Dalton’s ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER: (based on knowledge at that time) 1. All matter is made of atoms. These indivisible and indestructible objects are the ultimate chemical

particles. 2. All the atoms of a given element are identical, in both weight and chemical properties. However, atoms of

different elements have different weights and different chemical properties. 3. Compounds are formed by the combination of different atoms in the ratio of small whole numbers. 4. A chemical reaction involves only the combination, separation, or rearrangement of atoms; atoms are

neither created nor destroyed in the course of ordinary chemical reactions. **TWO MODIFICATIONS HAVE BEEN MADE TO DALTON’S THEORY: 1. Subatomic particles were discovered. Bet you can name them! 2. Isotopes were discovered. Bet you can define “isotope” as well!

• 1809 Joseph Gay-Lussac, French—performed experiments [at constant temperature and pressure] and measured volumes of gases that reacted with each other.

• 1811 Avogadro, Italian—proposed his hypothesis regarding Gay-Lussac’s work [and you thought he

was just famous for 6.02 × 1023] He was basically ignored, so 50 years of confusion followed. AVOGADRO’S HYPOTHESIS: At the same temperature and pressure, equal volumes of different gases contain the same number of particles.

ATOMIC MASSES

12C—Carbon 12—In 1961 it was agreed that this isotope of carbon would serve as the standard used to

determine all other atomic masses and would be defined to have a mass of EXACTLY 12 atomic mass

units (amu). All other atomic masses are measured relative to this.

mass spectrometer—a device for measuring the mass of atoms or molecules

o atoms or molecules are passed into a beam of high-speed electrons

o this knocks electrons OFF the atoms or molecules transforming them into cations

o apply an electric field

o this accelerates the cations since they are repelled from the (+) pole and attracted toward the (−)

pole

o send the accelerated cations into a magnetic field

o an accelerated cation creates it’s OWN magnetic field which perturbs the original magnetic field

o this perturbation changes the path of the cation

o the amount of deflection is proportional to the mass; heavy cations deflect little

o ions hit a detector plate where measurements can be obtained.

percent abundance = number of atoms of a given isotope × 100%

counting by mass—when particles are small this is a matter of convenience. Just as you buy 5 lbs of

sugar rather than a number of sugar crystals, or a pound of peanuts rather than counting the individual

peanuts….this concept works very well if your know an average mass.

DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS DISCLAIMER: I will show you some alternatives to dimensional analysis.

WHY? First, some of these techniques are faster and well-suited to the multi-step problems you will face on

the AP Exam. Secondly, these techniques better prepare you to work the complex equilibrium problems you

will face later in this course. Lastly, I used to teach both methods. Generations of successful students have

encouraged me to share these techniques with as many students as possible. They themselves did, once they got

to college, and made lots of new friends once word got out they had this “easy way” to solve stoichiometry

problems—not to mention their good grades! Give this a try. It doesn’t matter which method you use, I

encourage you to use the method that works best for you and lets you solve problems accurately and quickly!

MOLAR MASS AND FORMULA WEIGHT

molar mass, MM --the sum of all of the atomic masses in a given chemical formula in units of g/mol.

It is also equal mass in grams of Avogadro’s number of molecules; i.e. the mass of a mole

empirical formula--the ratio in the network for an ionic substance

formula weight--same as molecular weight, just a language problem � “molecular” implies covalent

bonding while “formula” implies ionic bonding {just consider this to be a giant conspiracy designed to

keep the uneducated from ever understanding chemistry—kind of like the scoring scheme in tennis}.

Just use “molar mass” for all formula masses.

A WORD ABOUT SIG. FIG.’s—It is correct to “pull” from the periodic table the least number of sig.

figs for your MM’s as are in your problem—just stick with 2 decimal places for all MM’s —much

Exercise 7 Molar Mass and Numbers of Molecules

Isopentyl acetate (C7H14O2), the compound responsible for the scent of bananas, can be produced commercially.

Interestingly, bees release about 1µg (1 × 10-6 g) of this compound when they sting. The resulting scent attracts

other bees to join the attack.

(a) Calculate the number of molecules of isopentyl acetate released in a typical bee sting.

(b) Calculate the number of carbon atoms present.

ELEMENTS THAT EXIST AS MOLECULES

Pure hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and the halogens exist as DIATOMIC molecules under normal conditions. MEMORIZE!!! Be sure you compute their molar masses as diatomics. We lovingly refer to them as the “gens”,

“Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen & the halogens!”

Others to be aware of, but not memorize:

P4—tetratomic form of elemental phosphorous; an allotrope

S8—sulfur’s elemental form; also an allotrope

Carbon—diamond and graphite � covalent networks of atoms

PERCENT COMPOSITION OF COMPOUNDS

There are two common ways of describing the composition of a compound: 1) in terms of the number of its

constituent atoms and 2) in terms of the percentages (by mass) of its elements.

Percent Composition (by mass): The Law of Constant Composition states that any sample of a pure compound always consists of the same elements combined in the same proportions by mass. Remember, all

percent calculations are simply part

100%whole

% comp = mass of desired element × 100%

total mass of compound

Consider ethanol, C2H5OH

Mass of C = 2 mol × mol

g01.12 = 24.02 g

Mass of H = 6 mol × mol

g01.1 = 6.06 g

Mass of O = 1 mol × mol

g00.16 = 16.00g

Mass of 1 mol of C2H5OH = 46.08 g

Stoichiometry Screencasts are available at www.apchemistrynmsi.wikispaces.com

7

NEXT, THE MASS PERCENT CAN BE CALCULATED:

Mass percent of C = 24.02 g C × 100% = 52.14%

46.08 g

Repeat for the H and O present.

Exercise 8 Calculating Mass Percent I

Carvone is a substance that occurs in two forms having different arrangements of the atoms but the same

molecular formula (C10H14O) and mass. One type of carvone gives caraway seeds their characteristic smell, and

the other type is responsible for the smell of spearmint oil. Calculate the mass percent of each element in

carvone.

C = 79.96%

H = 9.394%

O = 10.65%

Exercise 9 Calculating Mass Percent II

Penicillin, the first of a now large number of antibiotics (antibacterial agents), was discovered accidentally by

the Scottish bacteriologist Alexander Fleming in 1928, but he was never able to isolate it as a pure compound.

This and similar antibiotics have saved millions of lives that might have been lost to infections. Penicillin F has

the formula C14H20N2SO4. Calculate the mass percent of each element.

C = 53.82%

H = 6.47%

N = 8.97%

S = 10.26%

O = 20.49%

DETERMINING THE FORMULA OF A COMPOUND

When faced with a hydrocarbon compound of “unknown” formula, one of the most common techniques is to

combust it with oxygen to produce oxides of the nonmetals CO2 and H2O which are then collected and

weighed.

Calculating empirical and molecular formulas: empirical formulas represent the simplest or smallest ratio of elements within a compound while molecular formulas represent the actual numbers of elements within a compound. The empirical mass is the least common multiple of the molar mass.

Example: CH2O is the empirical for a carbohydrate—get it? “carbon waters”.

Anyway, glucose is a perfect example of a carbohydrate (a sugar to be exact) with an empirical molar

mass of 12 + 2(1) + 16 = 30 g/mol and since glucose is 6 units of CH2O which is equivalent to (CH2O)6

or C6H12O6; the empirical mass of 30 is also multiplied by 6. Thus the MM of glucose is 180 g/mol.

Make your problem solving life easy and assume a 100 gram sample if given %’s—that way you can

convert the percents given directly into grams and subsequently into moles in order to simplify your life!

Other twists and turns occurring when calculating molar masses involve:

hydrates—waters of hydration or “dot waters”. They count in the calculation of molar masses for

hydrates and used to “cement” crystal structures together

anhydrous—means without water—just to complete the story—just calculate the molar masses of

anhydrous substances as you would any other substance

Example:

A compound is composed of carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen. When 0.1156 g of this compound is reacted with

oxygen [a.k.a. “burned in air” or “combusted”], 0.1638 g of carbon dioxide and 0.1676 g of water are collected.

Determine the empirical formula of the compound.

So, Compound + O2 oxides of what is burned. In this case Compound + O2 CO2 + H2O + N2

(clearly not balanced)

You can see that all of the carbon ended up in CO2 so…when in doubt, calculate THE NUMBER OF MOLES!!

0.1638 g CO2 ÷ 44.01 g/mol CO2 = 0.003781 moles of CO2 = 0.003781 moles of C (why?)

Stoichiometry Screencasts are available at www.apchemistrynmsi.wikispaces.com

9

Next, you can see that all of the hydrogen ended up in H2O, so….calculate THE NUMBER OF MOLES!!

So, 0.1676 g H2O ÷ 18.02 g/mol H2O = 0 .009301 moles of H2O, BUT there are 2 moles of H for each mole of

water [ Think “organ bank” one heart per body, one C per molecule of carbon dioxide while there are 2 lungs

per body, 2 atoms H in water and so on…] thus, DOUBLE THE NUMBER OF MOLES of H2O GIVES THE

NUMBER OF MOLES OF HYDROGEN!! moles H = 2 × 0 .009301 moles of H2O = 0.01860 moles of H

Therefore, the remaining mass must be nitrogen, BUT we only have mass data for the sample so convert your

moles of C and H to grams:

grams C = 0.003781 moles C × 12.01 g

mol = 0.04540 grams C

grams H = 0.01860 moles H × 1.01 g

mol = 0.01879 grams H

Total grams : 0.06419 total grams accounted for thus far

What to do next? SUBTRACT!

0.1156 g sample – 0.06419 total grams accounted for thus far = grams N left = 0.05141 g N so….

0.05141 g N ÷ 14.01 g

mol = 0.003670 moles N

Next, realize that chemical formulas represent mole to mole ratios, so…divide the number of moles of each by

the smallest # of moles for any one of them to get a guaranteed ONE in your ratios…multiply by 2, then 3, etc

to get to a ratio of small whole numbers. Clear as mud? WATCH THE SCREENCAST!!

Element # moles ALL Divided by the

smallest (0.003670

moles)

C 0.003781 1

H 0.01860 5

N 0.003670 1

Therefore, the correct EMPIRICAL formula based on the data given is CH5N.

Finally (this is drumroll worthy), IF we are told that the MM of the original substance is 31.06 g/mol, then

simply use this relationship:

(Empirical mass) × n = MM

(12.01 + 5.05 + 14.01) × n = 31.07 g/mol n = 0.999678

This is mighty close to 1.0! Thus, the empirical formula and the molecular formula are one and the same.

Exercise 10

Determine the empirical and molecular formulas for a compound that gives the following analysis in mass

percents:

71.65% C1 24.27% C 4.07% H

The molar mass is known to be 98.96 g/mol.

Empirical formula = CH2 C1

Molecular formula = C2H4C12

formula of caffeine.

Molecular formula = C8H10N4O2

BALANCING CHEMICAL EQUATIONS

Chemical reactions are the result of a chemical change where atoms are reorganized into one or more new

arrangements. Bonds are broken [requires energy] and new ones are formed [releases energy]. A chemical

reaction transforms elements and compounds into new substances. A balanced chemical equation shows the

relative amounts of reactants [on the left] and products [on the right] by molecule or by mole.

Subtle details:

s, l, g, aq—state symbols that correspond to solid, liquid, gas,

aqueous solution

NO ENERGY or TIME is alluded to

Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794)—The Law of Conservation of Matter: matter can be neither created nordestroyed � this means you having to “balance equations” is entirely his fault!!

BALANCING CHEMICAL EQUATIONS

Begin with the most complicated-looking thing (often the scariest, too).

Save the elemental thing for last.

If you get stuck, double the most complicated-looking thing.

MEMORIZE THE FOLLOWING:

metals + halogens � MaXb

CH and/or O + O2 � CO2(g) + H2O(g)

H2CO3 [any time formed!] � CO2 + H2O; in other words, never write carbonic acid as a

product, it spontaneously decomposes [in an open container] to become carbon dioxide andwater

metal carbonates � metal OXIDES + CO2

Exercise 13

Chromium compounds exhibit a variety of bright colors. When solid ammonium dichromate, (NH4)2Cr2O7,

a vivid orange compound, is ignited, a spectacular reaction occurs. Although the reaction is actually somewhat

more complex, let’s assume here that the products are solid chromium(III) oxide, nitrogen gas (consisting of N2

molecules), and water vapor. Balance the equation for this reaction.

(NH4)2Cr2O7(s) → Cr2O3(s) + N2(g) + 4H2O(g)

STOICHIOMETRIC CALCULATIONS: AMOUNTS OF REACTANTS AND PRODUCTS

Stoichiometry – The study of quantities of materials consumed and produced in chemical reactions.

Stoichiometry is the most important thing you can learn as you embark upon AP Chemistry! Get good at

this and you will do well all year. This NEVER goes away!

It’s time to repeat my dimensional analysis disclaimer.

DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS DISCLAIMER: I will show you some alternatives to dimensional analysis. WHY? First, some of

these techniques are faster and well-suited to the multi-step problems you will face on the AP Exam. Secondly, these techniques better

prepare you to work the complex equilibrium problems you will face later in this course. The first problem you must solve in the free

response section of the AP Exam will be an equilibrium problem and you will need to be able to work them quickly. Lastly, I used to

teach both methods. Generations of successful students have encouraged me to share these techniques with as many students as

possible. They did, once they got to college, and made lots of new friends once word got out they had this “cool way” to solve

stoichiometry problems—not to mention their good grades! Give this a try. It doesn’t matter which method you use, I encourage you

to use the method that works best for you and lets you solve problems accurately and quickly!

First you have to be proficient at the following no matter which method you choose!:

Writing CORRECT formulas—this requires knowledge of your polyatomic ions and being able to use

the periodic table to deduce what you have not had to memorize. Review section 2.8 in your Chapter 2

notes or your text.

Calculate CORRECT molar masses from a correctly written formula

Balance a chemical equation

Use the mole map to calculate the number of moles or anything else!

Remember the mole map? It will come in mighty handy as well!

Stoichiometry Screencasts are available at www.apchemistrynmsi.wikispaces.com

Here’s the “template” for solving the problems…you’ll create a chart. Here’s a typical example:

Example: Calculate the mass of oxygen will react completely with 96.1 grams of propane?

[notice all words—you supply the chemical formulas!]

Molar Mass: (44.11) (32.00) (44.01) (18.02) Balanced Eq’n C3H8 + 5 O2 � 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

mole:mole 1 5 3 4 # moles

Amount

1. Write a chemical equation paying special attention to writing correct chemical formulas!

2. Calculate the molar masses and put in parentheses above the formulas—soon you’ll figure out you don’t

have to do this for every reactant and product, just those in which you are interested.

3. Balance the equation! Examine the coefficients on the balanced equation, they ARE the mole:mole

ratios! Isolating them helps you internalize the mol:mol until you get the hang of this.

4. Next, re-read the problem and put in an amount—in this example it’s 96.1 g of propane.

Molar Mass: (44.11) (32.00) (44.01) (18.02)

Balanced

Eq’n C3H8 + 5 O2 � 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

mole:mole 1 5 3 4 # moles 2.18 10.9 6.53 8.71 amount 96.1 grams

5. Calculate the number of moles of something, anything! Use the mole map. Start at 96.1 grams of C3H8,

divide the 96.1 g [against the arrow on the mole map] by molar mass to calculate the # moles of

propane.

6. USE the mole: mole to find moles of EVERYTHING! If 1 = 2.18 then oxygen is 5(2.18) etc…. [IF the

first mol amount you calculate is not a “1”, just divide appropriately to make it “1” before moving on to

calculate the moles of all the rest!] Leave everything in your calculator—I only rounded to save space!

7. Re-read the problem to determine which amount was asked for…here’s the payoff….AP problems ask

for several amounts! First, we’ll find the mass of oxygen required since that’s what the problem asked.

10.9 moles × 32.00 g/mol = 349 g of oxygen

Now, humor me…What if part (b) asked for liters of CO2 at STP [1 atm, 273K]?

Use the mole map. Start in the middle with 6.53 moles × [in direction of arrow] 22.4 L/mol = 146 L

What if part (c) asked you to calculate how many water molecules are produced?

Use the mole map , start in the middle with 8.71 mol water × 6.02 × 1023

molecules

mol = 5.24 × 10

24 molecules

of water.

Try these two exercises with whichever method you like best!

environment by forming solid lithium carbonate and liquid water. What mass of gaseous carbon dioxide can be

absorbed by 1.00 kg of lithium hydroxide?

Exercise 16

Baking soda (NaHCO3) is often used as an antacid. It neutralizes excess hydrochloric acid secreted by the

stomach:

NaHCO3(s) + HC1(aq) → NaC1(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(aq)

Milk of magnesia, which is an aqueous suspension of magnesium hydroxide, is also used as an antacid:

Mg(OH)2(s) + 2HC1(aq) → 2H2O(l) + MgC12(aq)

Which is the more effective antacid per gram, NaHCO3 or Mg(OH)2? Justify your answer.

Mg(OH)2

CALCULATIONS INVOLVING A LIMITING REACTANT

Ever notice how hot dogs are sold in packages of 10 while the buns come in packages of 8? What’s up with

that?! The bun is the limiting reactant and limits the hot dog production to 8 as well! The limiting reactant [or

reagent] is the one consumed most entirely in the chemical reaction.

Let’s use a famous process [meaning one the AP exam likes to ask questions about!], the Haber process.

This reaction is essentially making ammonia for fertilizer production from the nitrogen in the air reacted with

hydrogen gas. The hydrogen gas is obtained from the reaction of methane with water vapor. This process has

saved millions from starvation!! The reaction is shown below.

Exercise17

Examine the particle views and explain the differences between the two situations pictured below with regard to

what is or is not reacting and total yield of ammonia.

N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g)

Situation 1 Situation 2

Stoichiometry Screencasts are available at www.apchemistrynmsi.wikispaces.com

17

Plan of attack: First, you must realize that you even need a plan of attack! IF ever you are faced with TWO

starting amounts of matter reacting, you have entered “The Land of Limiting Reactant”.

When faced with this situation …calculate the number of moles of everything you are given. Set up your table

like before, only now you’ll have TWO amounts and thus TWO # ‘s of moles to get you started.

Cover one set of moles up (pretending you only had one amount to work from) and ask yourself, “What if all of

these moles reacted?” “How many moles of the other reactants would I need to use up all of these moles?”

Next, do the calculation of how many moles of the “other” amount(s) you would need. Do you have enough?

If so, the reactant you began with IS the limiting reactant. If not repeat this process with the “other” reactant

amount you were given.

It doesn’t matter where you start the “What if?” game….you get there either way.

Clear as mud? Read on…(and consider listening to the SCREENCAST!)

Let’s revisit the Haber process:

Molar Mass: (28.02) (2.02) (17.04)

Balanced Eq’n N2 + 3 H2 � 2 NH3

mole:mole 1 3 2 # moles

Suppose 25.0 kg of nitrogen reacts with 5.00 kg of hydrogen to form ammonia. What mass of ammonia can be

produced? Which reactant is the limiting reactant? What is the mass of the reactant that is in excess?

**Insert the masses in the amount row and find the number of moles of BOTH! Molar Mass: (28.02) (2.02) (17.04)

Balanced

Eq’n N2 + 3 H2 � 2 NH3

mole:mole 1 3 2 # moles 892 moles 2,475 moles

amount 25,000 g 5,000 g

WHAT IF I used up all the moles of hydrogen? I’d need 1/3 × 2,475 moles = 825 moles of nitrogen.

Clearly I have EXCESS moles of nitrogen!! Therefore, hydrogen limits me.

OR WHAT IF I used up all the moles of nitrogen? I’d need 3 × 892 moles = 2,676 moles of hydrogen.

Clearly I don’t have enough hydrogen, so it limits me!! Therefore nitrogen is in excess.

Continued on next page.

Either way, I’ve established that hydrogen is the limiting reactant so I modify the table:

In English, that means I’ll use up all the hydrogen but not all the nitrogen!

Molar Mass: (28.02) (2.02) (17.04)

Here’s the question again, let’s clean up any sig.fig issues:

Suppose 25.0 kg of nitrogen reacts with 5.00 kg of hydrogen to form ammonia. (3 sig. fig. limit)

What mass of ammonia can be produced? 28,100 g produced = 28.1 kg

(It is always polite to respond in the unit given).

Which reactant is the limiting reactant? Hydrogen—once that’s established, discard the nitrogen amounts and

let hydrogen be your guide!

What is the mass of the reactant that is in excess? 1,884 g = 1.88 kg excess nitrogen!!

Exercise 18

Nitrogen gas can be prepared by passing gaseous ammonia over solid copper(II) oxide at high temperatures.

The other products of the reaction are solid copper and water vapor. If a sample containing 18.1 g of NH3 is

reacted with 90.4 g of CuO, which is the limiting reactant? How many grams of N2 will be formed?

CuO is limiting; 10.6 g N2

Stoichiometry Screencasts are available at www.apchemistrynmsi.wikispaces.com

19

Theoretical Yield: The amount of product formed when a limiting reactant is completely consumed. This

assumes perfect conditions and gives a maximum amount!! Not likely!

Actual yield: That which is realistic.

Percent yield: The ratio of actual to theoretical yield.

Actual Yield × 100% = Percent yield

Theoretical Yield

Exercise 19

Methanol (CH3OH), also called methyl alcohol, is the simplest alcohol. It is used as a fuel in race cars and is a

potential replacement for gasoline. Methanol can be manufactured by combination of gaseous carbon monoxide

and hydrogen. Suppose 68.5 kg CO(g) is reacted with 8.60 kg H2(g). Calculate the theoretical yield of

methanol. If 3.57 × 104 g CH3OH is actually produced, what is the percent yield of methanol?

Theoretical yield is 6.82 × 104 g

Percent yield is 52.3%

WRITING AP* NET IONIC EQUATIONS

AP equation sets are found in the free-response section of the AP test. You are given eight equations and you must choose to answer five of these.** The equations are of mixed types. The section is worth 15 points and is 15 % of the free response grade. Free response is 55% of the total AP test grade.

All AP equations "work". In each case, a reaction will occur. These equations

need to be written in net ionic form. All spectator ions must be left out and all ions must be written in ionic form. All molecular substances and nonsoluble compounds must be written together (not ionized!). Weak electrolytes, such as acetic acid, are not ionized. Solids and pure liquids are written together, also. A saturated solution is written in ionic form while a suspension is written together. AP equations do not need to be balanced. Don't waste your time on balancing!

Each equation is worth a total of 3 points. One point is given for the correct

reactants and two points for all correct products. If a reaction has three products, one point is given for two correct products and two points for all correct products. Leaving in the spectator ions will result in a one point deduction on the equation set (not 1 point per problem).

The best way to prepare for the equation section of the AP test is to practice lots

of equations. The equation sets are similar and some equations show up year after year. When you are reading an equation, first try to classify it by type. If it says anything about acidic or basic solution, it is redox. If you are totally stuck, look up the compounds in the index of your book or other reference books and try to find information that will help you with the equation. All reactions do not fit neatly into the five types of reactions that you learned in Chemistry I. Save the reactions that you write and practice them again before the AP test in May.

Kristen Henry Jones 01/28/99 ** There was a format change in 2007. Now students are given 3 equations and only 3 equations, each worth 5 points. They must write the net ionic equation (3 points total: 1 point for set of reactants and 2 points for products), balance the net ionic equation ( the 4th point), and answer a descriptive question about the reaction (the 5th and final point). The methods presented in this document still hold true, but be sure and require students to balance the equations by mass and charge even though they are not balanced on the key!

Double Replacement (metathesis)

Two compounds react to form two new compounds. No changes in oxidation numbers occur. All double replacement reactions must have a "driving force" that removes a pair of ions from solution.

Formation of a precipitate: A precipitate is an insoluble substance formed by the reaction of two aqueous substances. Two ions bond together so strongly that water can not pull them apart. You must know your solubility rules to write these net ionic equations (see next page)

Ex. Solutions of silver nitrate and lithium bromide are mixed.

Ag + Br AgBr

Formation of a gas: Gases may form directly in a double replacement reaction or can form from the decomposition of a product such as H2CO3 or H2SO3. Common gasses: CO2, SO2, SO3, H2S, NO2, NH3, O2, H2

Ex. Excess hydrochloric acid solution is added to a solution of potassium sulfite.

H+ + SO32- H20 + SO2

Ex. A solution of sodium hydroxide is added to a solution of ammonium chloride.

OH- + NH4+ NH3 + H2O

Formation of a molecular substance: When a molecular substance such as water or acetic acid is formed, ions are removed from solution and the reaction "works".

Ex. Dilute solutions of lithium hydroxide and hydrobromic acid are mixed.

OH- + H+ H2O (HBr, HCI, and HI are strong acids)

Ex. Gaseous hydrofluoric acid reacts with solid silicon dioxide.

HF + SiO2 SiF4 + H2O

Single Replacement

Reaction where one element displaces another in a compound. One element is oxidized and another is reduced.

A + BC B + AC Active metals replace less active metals or hydrogen from their compounds in aqueous solution. Use an activity series or a reduction potential table to determine activity. The more easily oxidized metal replaces the less easily oxidized metal. The metal with the most negative reduction potential will be the most active. Ex. Magnesium turnings are added to a solution of iron(III) chloride.

OXIDATION-REDUCTION REACTIONS

Redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons. 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 redox.

Common oxidizing agents Products formed MnO4

- in acidic solution Mn2+ MnO2 in acidic solution Mn2+ MnO4

ADDITION REACTIONS

Two or more elements or compounds combine to form a single product. A group IA or IIA metal may combine with a nonmetal to make a salt. Ex. A piece of lithium metal is dropped into a container of nitrogen gas. Li + N2 Li3N Two nonmetals may combine to form a molecular compound. The oxidation number of the less electronegative element is often variable depending upon conditions. Generally, a higher oxidation state of one nonmetal is obtained when reacting with an excess of the other nonmetal. Ex. P4 + 6 Cl2 4 PCl3 limited Cl P4 + 10 Cl2 4 PCl5 excess Cl When an element combines with a compound, you can usually sum up all of the elements on the product side. Ex. PCl3 + C12 PCl5 Two compounds combine to form a single product. Ex. Sulfur dioxide gas is passed over solid calcium oxide. SO2 + CaO CaSO3 Ex. The gases boron trifluoride and ammonia are mixed.

ACID-BASE NEUTRALIZATION REACTIONS

Acids react with bases to produce salts and water. One mole of hydrogen ions react with one mole of hydroxide ions to produce one mole of water. Watch out for information about quantities of each reactant! Remember which acids are strong (ionize completely) and which are weak (write as molecule). Sulfuric acid (strong acid) can be written as H+ and SO4

2- or as H+ and HSO4-.

Ex. A solution of sulfuric acid is added to a solution of barium hydroxide until the same number of moles of each compound as been added.

H+ + SO42- + Ba2+ + OH- BaSO4 + H2O

Ex. Hydrogen sulfide gas is bubbled through excess potassium hydroxide solution. H2S + OH- H2O + S2- Watch out for substances that react with water before reacting with an acid or a base.

AP* Chemistry GASES The gaseous state of matter is the simplest and best-understood state of matter. You inhale approximately 8,500 L of air each day. This amounts to about 25 lbs of air. Breathing is a three-step process: inhaling, gas exchange with the circulatory system, and exhaling. Approximately 80% pressure differences created by your body allow you to breathe. Nearly the Earth’s entire atmosphere is made up of only five gases: nitrogen, oxygen, water vapor, argon, and carbon dioxide. PROPERTIES OF GASES Only FOUR quantities are needed to define the state of a gas:

1. the quantity of the gas, n (in moles) 2. the temperature of the gas, T (in KELVINS) 3. the volume of the gas, V (in liters) 4. the pressure of the gas, P (in atmospheres)

A gas uniformly fills any container, is easily compressed & mixes completely with any other gas.

GAS PRESSURE is a measure of the force that a gas exerts on its container. Force is the physical quantity that interferes with inertia. Gravity is the force responsible for weight. Force = mass × acceleration; (Newton’s 2nd Law) The SI units follow: N = kg × m/s2 Pressure-- Force/ unit area; N/m2; which is the definition of 1.0 Pascal

Barometer--invented by Evangelista Torricelli in 1643; uses the height of a column of mercury to measure gas pressure (especially atmospheric P) 1 mm of Hg = 1 torr 1.00 atm = 760.00 mm Hg = 760.00 torr = 29.92 in Hg = 14.7 psi = 101.325 kPa ≈ 105 Pa

At sea level all of the above define STANDARD PRESSURE. The SI unit of pressure is the Pascal (named after Blaise Pascal); 1 Pa = 1 N / m2 The manometer—a device for measuring the pressure of a gas in a container. The pressure of the gas is given by h [the difference in mercury levels] in units of torr (equivalent to mm Hg).

a) Gas pressure = atmospheric pressure – h b) Gas pressure = atmospheric pressure + h

GAS LAWS: THE EXPERIMENTAL BASIS BOYLE’S LAW: “Father of Chemistry”--the volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted on the gas. ALL GASES BEHAVE IN THIS MANNER! • Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist. He studied PV relationships

using a J-tube set up in the multi-story entryway of his home. (Thus his was MUCH larger than the one shown right.) o P µ 1/V o ∴ pressure and volume are inversely proportional o Volume ↑ Pressure ↓ at constant temperature, the

converse is also true o for a given quantity of a gas at constant temperature, the product of pressure

and volume is a constant PV = k

Therefore, P

which is the equation for a straight line of the type y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b is the y-intercept

In this case, y = V, x = 1/P and b = 0. Check out the plot on the right (b).

The data Boyle originally collected is graphed on (a) above on the right.

o P1V1 = P2V2 is the easiest form of Boyle’s law to memorize

o Boyle’s Law has been tested for over three centuries. It holds true only at low pressures.

Exercise 3 Boyle’s Law I Sulfur dioxide (SO2), a gas that plays a central role in the formation of acid rain, is found in the exhaust of automobiles and power plants. Consider a 1.53- L sample of gaseous SO2 at a pressure of 5.6 × 103 Pa. If the pressure is changed to 1.5 × 104 Pa at a constant temperature, what will be the new volume of the gas?

Ideal Gases At “normal” conditions such as standard temperature and pressure, most real gases behave qualitatively like an ideal gas. Many gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, noble gases, and some heavier gases like carbon dioxide can be treated like ideal gases within reasonable tolerances. Generally, a gas behaves more like an ideal gas at higher temperature and lower pressure, as the work which is against intermolecular forces becomes less significant compared with the particles' kinetic energy, and the size of the molecules becomes less significant compared to the empty space between them. An ideal gas is expected to have a constant value of PV, as shown by the dotted line on the graph pictured above. CO2 shows the largest change in PV, and this change is actually quite small: PV changes from about 22.39 L·atm at 0.25 atm to 22.26 L·atm at 1.00 atm. Thus Boyle’s Law is a good approximation at these relatively low pressures. So, why does CO2 deviate from ideal behavior the most? It has more electrons, thus is more polarizable, thus has higher dispersion forces (a type of intermolecular force a.k.a. London dispersion forces or LDFs), therefore the molecules are more attracted to each other, so carbon dioxide gas deviates from ideal behavior more than oxygen or carbon dioxide do. Gases 3

Exercise 4 Boyle’s Law II In a study to see how closely gaseous ammonia obeys Boyle’s law, several volume measurements were made at various pressures, using 1.0 mol NH3 gas at a temperature of 0ºC. Using the results listed below; calculate the Boyle’s law constant for NH3 at the various pressures. Calculate the deviation from ideal behavior in each case. Account for the trend apparent in the data.

Exercise 5 Boyle’s Law III Next, PLOT the values of PV vs. P for the six experiments in Exercise 4. Extrapolate to determine what PV equals at a hypothetical 0.00 atm pressure. Compare it to the PV vs. P graph on page 3 of these lecture notes. What is the value of the y-intercept?

CHARLES’S LAW: If a given quantity of gas is held at a constant pressure, then its volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature. Must use KELVINS Why? • Jacques Charles was a French physicist and the first

person to fill a hot “air” balloon with hydrogen gas and made the first solo hot air balloon flight! o V µ T plot = straight line o V1T2 = V2T1 o Temperature ∝ Volume at constant pressure o This figure shows the plots of V vs. T (Celsius) for

several gases. The solid lines represent experimental measurements on gases. The dashed lines represent extrapolation of the data into regions where these gases would become liquids or solids. Note that the samples of the various gases contain different numbers of moles.

o What is the temperature when the volume extrapolates to zero? Sound familiar?

Exercise 6 Charles’s Law A sample of gas at 15ºC and 1 atm has a volume of 2.58 L. What volume will this gas occupy at 38ºC and 1 atm? Each of the balloons below contains the same number of particles in the gas phase. This is yet another example of “heat ‘em up and speed ‘em up!”. As the molecules warm, they gain kinetic energy, move faster, and thus collide with the walls of their container with more energy. (Umph! If you prefer) In this case, the “walls” of the container are made of rubber which can expand and contract.

GAY-LUSSAC’S LAW of combining volumes: volumes of gases always combine with one another in the ratio of small whole numbers, as long as volumes are measured at the same T and P. - P1T2 = P2T1

- Avogadro’s hypothesis: equal volumes of gases under the same conditions of temperature and pressure

contain equal numbers of molecules.

AVOGADRO’S LAW: The volume of a gas, at a given temperature and pressure, is directly proportional to the quantity of gas. - V ∝ n - n ∝ Volume at constant T & P HERE’S AN EASY WAY TO MEMORIZE ALL OF THIS! Start with the combined gas law:

P1V1T2 = P2V2T1 Memorize just this use a simple pattern to figure the rest out: Place the scientist names in alphabetical order. Boyle’s Law uses the first 2 variables, Charles’ Law the second 2 variables & Gay-Lussac’s Law the

remaining combination of variables. Whichever variable doesn’t appear in the formula is being held CONSTANT!

Exercise 7 Avogadro’s Law Suppose we have a 12.2-L sample containing 0.50 mol oxygen gas (O2) at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 25ºC. If all this O2 were converted to ozone (O3) at the same temperature and pressure, what would be the volume of the ozone?

These balloons each hold 1.0 L of gas at 25°C and 1 atm. Each balloon contains 0.041 mol of gas, or 2.5 × 1022 gas molecules.

THE IDEAL GAS LAW Four quantities describe the state of a gas: pressure, volume, temperature, and # of moles (quantity). Combine all 3 laws: V µ nT P Replace the µ with a constant, R, and you get: PV = nRT The ideal gas law is an equation of state. R = 0.8206 L• atm/mol • K also expressed as 0.8206 L atm mol−1 K−1

Exercise 8 Ideal Gas Law I A sample of hydrogen gas (H2) has a volume of 8.56 L at a temperature of 0ºC and a pressure of 1.5 atm. Calculate the moles of H2 molecules present in this gas sample.

Exercise 9 Ideal Gas Law II Suppose we have a sample of ammonia gas with a volume of 3.5 L at a pressure of 1.68 atm. The gas is compressed to a volume of 1.35 L at a constant temperature. Use the ideal gas law to calculate the final pressure.

Exercise 10 Ideal Gas Law III A sample of methane gas that has a volume of 3.8 L at 5ºC is heated to 86ºC at constant pressure. Calculate its new volume.

Exercise 11 Ideal Gas Law IV A sample of diborane gas (B2H6), a substance that bursts into flame when exposed to air, has a pressure of 345 torr at a temperature of -15ºC and a volume of 3.48 L. If conditions are changed so that the temperature is 36ºC and the pressure is 468 torr, what will be the volume of the sample?

Exercise 12 Ideal Gas Law V A sample containing 0.35 mol argon gas at a temperature of 13ºC and a pressure of 568 torr is heated to 56ºC and a pressure of 897 torr. Calculate the change in volume that occurs.

GAS STOICHIOMETRY Use PV = nRT to solve for the volume of one mole of gas at STP: Look familiar? This is the molar volume of a gas at STP. Work stoichiometry problems using your favorite method, dimensional analysis, mole map, the table way…just work FAST! Use the ideal gas law to convert quantities that are NOT at STP.

Exercise 15 Gas Stoichiometry III A sample of methane gas having a volume of 2.80 L at 25ºC and 1.65 atm was mixed with a sample of oxygen gas having a volume of 35.0 L at 31ºC and 1.25 atm. The mixture was then ignited to form carbon dioxide and water. Calculate the volume of CO2 formed at a pressure of 2.50 atm and a temperature of 125ºC.

THE DENSITY OF GASES

Crude and socially unacceptable? You bet! But … you’ll thank me later when you’re flying through such gas law problems. Just remember that densities of gases are reported in g/L NOT g/mL. What is the approximate molar mass of air expressed in g/L? List 3 gases that float in air: List 3 gases that sink in air: Exercise 16 Gas Density/Molar Mass The density of a gas was measured at 1.50 atm and 27ºC and found to be 1.95 g/L. Calculate the molar mass of the gas.

GAS MIXTURES AND PARTIAL PRESSURES The pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the pressures of the different components of the mixture: Ptotal = P1 + P2 + . . . Pn John Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures also uses the concept of mole fraction, χ χ A = moles of A . moles A + moles B + moles C + . . . so now, PA = χ A Ptotal The partial pressure of each gas in a mixture of gases in a container depends on the number of moles of that gas. The total pressure is the SUM of the partial pressures and depends on the total moles of gas particles present, no matter what they are!

Gases 10

Exercise 17 Dalton’s Law I Mixtures of helium and oxygen are used in scuba diving tanks to help prevent “the bends.” For a particular dive, 46 L He at 25ºC and 1.0 atm and 12 L O2 at 25ºC and 1.0 atm were pumped into a tank with a volume of 5.0 L. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas and the total pressure in the tank at 25ºC.

Exercise 18 Dalton’s Law II The partial pressure of oxygen was observed to be 156 torr in air with a total atmospheric pressure of 743 torr. Calculate the mole fraction of O2 present. Exercise 19 Dalton’s Law III The mole fraction of nitrogen in the air is 0.7808. Calculate the partial pressure of N2 in air when the atmospheric pressure is 760. torr. WATER DISPLACEMENT It is common to collect a gas in the laboratory by water displacement. The confounding factor is that some of the pressure in the collection vessel is due to water vapor collected as the gas was passing through! You must correct for this in order to report the P of “dry” gas. How? You simply look up the partial pressure due to water vapor at a given temperature and subtract that value from the total pressure. The experiment pictured is a classic! You may have done it with Mg rather than zinc and used a eudiometer or inverted and sealed buret to measure the volume of the gas collected “over water”.

Gases 11

Exercise 20 Gas Collection over Water A sample of solid potassium chlorate (KClO3) was heated in a test tube (see the figure above) and decomposed by the following reaction: 2 KClO3(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g) The oxygen produced was collected by displacement of water at 22ºC at a total pressure of 754 torr. The volume of the gas collected was 0.650 L, and the vapor pressure of water at 22ºC is 21 torr. Calculate the partial pressure of O2 in the gas collected and the mass of KClO3 in the sample that was decomposed. KINETIC MOLECULAR THEORY OF GASES Assumptions of the MODEL: 1. All particles are in constant, random, motion. 2. All collisions between particles are perfectly elastic. 3. The volume of the particles in a gas is negligible 4. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is its Kelvin temperature. This theory neglects any intermolecular forces as well. And it is important to note that gases expand to fill their container, solids/liquids do not. And that gases are compressible; solids/liquids are not appreciably compressible.

Gases 12

This helps explain Boyle’s Law: If the volume is decreased that means that the gas particles will hit the wall more often, thus increasing pressure

V

And also helps explain Charles’ Law When a gas is heated, the speeds of its particles increase and thus hit the walls more often and with more force. The only way to keep the P constant is to increase the volume of the container.

TP

nRV

Yep, you guessed it! It also helps explain Gay-Lussac’s Law When the temperature of a gas increases, the speeds of its particles increase, the particles are hitting the wall with greater force and greater frequency. Since the volume remains the same this would result in increased gas pressure.

TVnRP

And it even helps explain Avogadro’s Law An increase in the number of particles at the same temperature would cause the pressure to increase if the volume were held constant. The only way to keep constant P is to vary the V.

Exercise 21 Root Mean Square Velocity Calculate the root mean square velocity for the atoms in a sample of helium gas at 25ºC.

If we could monitor the path of a single molecule it would be very erratic. Mean free path—the average distance a particle travels between collisions. It’s on the order of a tenth of a micrometer. WAAAAY SMALL! Examine the effect of temperature on the numbers of molecules with a given velocity as it relates to temperature. HEAT ‘EM UP, SPEED ‘EM UP!!

Drop a vertical line from the peak of each of the three bell shaped curves—that point on the x-axis represents the AVERAGE velocity of the sample at that temperature. Note how the bells are “squashed” as the temperature increases. You may see graphs like this on the AP exam where you have to identify the highest temperature based on the shape of the graph!

GRAHAM’S LAW OF DIFFUSION AND EFFUSION Effusion is closely related to diffusion. Diffusion is the term used to describe the mixing of gases. The rate of diffusion is the rate of the mixing. Effusion is the term used to describe the passage of a gas through a tiny orifice into an evacuated chamber as shown on the right. The rate of effusion measures the speed at which the gas is transferred into the chamber.

Gases 14

The rates of effusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses at the same temperature and pressure.

REMEMBER rate is a change in a quantity over time, NOT just the time! Exercise 22 Effusion Rates Calculate the ratio of the effusion rates of hydrogen gas (H2) and uranium hexafluoride (UF6), a gas used in the enrichment process to produce fuel for nuclear reactors.

Exercise 23 A pure sample of methane is found to effuse through a porous barrier in 1.50 minutes. Under the same conditions, an equal number of molecules of an unknown gas effuses through the barrier in 4.73 minutes. What is the molar mass of the unknown gas?

The observed ratio is LESS than a 1.5 distance ratio—why? This diffusion is slow despite considering the molecular velocities are 450 and 660 meters per second—which one is which? This tube contains air and all those collisions slow the process down in the real world. Speaking of real world…. REAL, thus NONIDEAL GASES Most gases behave ideally until you reach high pressure and low temperature. (By the way, either of these can cause a gas to liquefy, go figure!) van der Waals Equation--corrects for negligible volume of molecules and accounts for inelastic collisions leading to intermolecular forces (his real claim to fame).

The coefficients a and b are van der Waals constants; no need to work problems, it’s the concepts that are important! Notice pressure is increased (intermolecular forces lower real pressure, you’re correcting for this) and volume is decreased (corrects the container to a smaller “free” volume). These graphs are classics and make great multiple choice questions on the AP exam.

When PV/nRT = 1.0, the gas is ideal This graph is just for nitrogen gas. All of these are at 200K. Note that although nonideal behavior Note the P’s where the curves is evident at each temperature, the cross the dashed line [ideality]. deviations are smaller at the higher Ts. Don’t underestimate the power of understanding these graphs. We love to ask question comparing the behavior of ideal and real gases. It’s not likely you’ll be asked an entire free-response gas problem on the real exam in May. Gas Laws are tested extensively in the multiple choice since it’s easy to write questions involving them! You will most likely see PV = nRT as one part of a problem in the free-response, just not a whole problem! GO FORTH AND RACK UP THOSE MULTIPLE CHOICE POINTS!!

This is the kind of stuff that drives me crazy as well! I went in search of the answer some time ago, so I'll share what I found: As usual, the answer relates to a history lesson. It was Clausius in the mid 1800’s that refined the conversion factor for converting degrees Celsius to Kelvins (from adding 267 to adding 273 to the Celsius temperature. He did so using the careful experimental data of another French scientist, Regnault. Clausius also noted that Regnault’s data indicated that the farther the temperature and pressure conditions were from the condensation point of the gas, the more correctly the Ideal Gas Law applies. So, there is speculation that the “constant” was assigned the letter “R” to honor Regnault’s work. In the spirit of giving credit where credit is due, my source was a Journal of Chem.
