using chemical symbols

and oxidation numbers.

Chemical Formula

H2O

C6H12O6

Chemical Formula

(NH4)2SO4

Chemical Formula

Oxidation Number

The apparent charge

on an atom.

The charge on an ion.

Tells the number of

electrons gained or

lost when forming

compounds.

Oxidation Number

Atoms with positive

oxidation numbers

lose electrons.

Oxidation Number

Na+

Metals commonly

have positive oxidation

numbers.

Oxidation Number

Na+

Atoms with negative

oxidation numbers

gain electrons.

Oxidation Number

Cl-

Nonmetals commonly

have negative oxidation

numbers.

Oxidation Number

Subscripts

Small numbers to the

lower right of a

chemical symbol. H2O

Represent the number

of atoms of the element

in the compound.H2O

Subscripts

Subscripts of 1 are

never used, they

are understood.H2O

Subscripts

Multiply the subscript by

the oxidation number.

H2O

Subscripts

H2O

Hydrogen:

Oxidation # X Subscript

+ 1 X 2 = + 2

H2OOxygen:

Oxidation # X Subscript

- 2 X 1 = - 2

H2OTotal Oxidation Number:

( + 2 ) + ( - 2 ) = 0

A Simplification

Make the oxidation of one element the subscript of the other element.

There is one possible problem!

CaO+2 -2

Ca2O2

A Simplification

There is one possible problem!

These subscripts will reduce...

CaO+2 -2

Ca2O2

A Simplification

Subscripts MUST be written

in their lowest form.

Ion

An atom (or atoms)

with a charge.

IonMeaning the number of

protons and electrons

is no longer the same.

IonChemists cannot change

an atom's protons,

so it must be the

electrons that change.

Lab Question:

Does steel wool weigh more or less after burning.

A combustion reaction is defined as a hydrocarbon combining with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.

QuickTime™ and aTIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor

are needed to see this picture.Combustion

CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O

Metallic substances combine withoxygen in oxidation-reductionreactions, such as the rustingof iron.



4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3

Do these two reactions suggestthat anything that burns isactually combining withoxygen in the atmosphere?



4Fe + 3O2 2Fe2O3

CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O
