Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes
• Many aqueous solutions of ionic compounds conduct electricity whereas water itself essentially does not conduct-electrolyte solutions
• Dissociation-ionic substances break apart completely into ions when dissolved in water
• Ionization-some molecular compounds (nonionic) break apart into ions when dissolved in water
SolvationSolvation of ionic compounds
• Polarity of water
• Ions surrounded by water molecules prevent recombining of ions (solvatedsolvated)
• Ions/shells free to move around, so dispersed uniformly throughout solution

• What is the molarity of a solution in which 3.57 g of sodium chloride, NaCl, is dissolved in enough water to make 25.0 ml of solution?
• Convert from mass of NaCl to moles of NaCl. – 3.57 g NaCl x 1 mol NaCl = 0.061 mol NaCl
58.44 g NaCl
• Convert 25.0 mL to 0.0250 L and substitute these two quantities into the defining equation for molarity.
• Molarity = 0.0611 mol NaCl = 2.44 M NaCl l0.0250 L solution
We read this as 2.44 molar NaCl. • It is important to understand that molarity means
moles of solute per liter of solution, and not per liter of solvent.

To calculate the concentration of each type of ion in a solution
• Dissociate solid into its cations/anions
• This gives how many moles of ions are formed for each mole of solid
• Multiply number of ions by given molarity
04/10/23 18
Calculate the molarity of all the ions in each of the following solutions:
• Always write out the dissociation equation, so you have “ion-to-solute” mole ratio.
• 0.25 M Ca(OCl2)– Ca(OCl2)(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2OCl-(aq) – Molarity of Ca2+ = molarity of Ca(OCl2) = 0.250 M– Molarity of 2OCl- = 2 x molarity of Ca(OCl2) =
0.50 M

Standard solution-solution whose concentration is accurately known
a. Put a weighed amount of a substance (solute) into a volumetric flask and add a small quantity of water.
b. Dissolve the solid in the water by gently swirling the flask (with stopper in place).
c. Add more water (with gentle swirling) until the level of the solution just reaches the mark etched on the neck of the flask.Then mix solution thoroughly by inverting the flask several times.
04/10/23 20
Example
• To prepare a 0.50 molar (0.50 M) solution of KCl, we first measure out 0.50 mole of solid KCl, that is 37.3 g
• When water is added up to this mark, the flask will contain 1.0 L of the KCl solution, and will contain 0.50 mole of KCl
• The number of moles of KCl in given amounts of the above solution is easy to find
• For instance, 0.10 L of 0.50 M KCl will contain• 0.10 L soln x 0.50 mol KCl= 0.050 mol KCl in 1

DilutionDilution
• Used to prepare less concentrated solution from more concentrated solution
• Adding more water to given amount of solution does not change number of moles of solute present in solution
• Moles of solute before dilution = moles of solute after dilution
• Since moles of solute equals solution volume (V) times molarity (M) we have molesi = molesf of MiVi = MfVf
– i/f stand for initial/final solution, respectively• Note that Vf is always larger than Vi

Solubility RulesSolubility Rules
• Solubility of solute: amount dissolved in given quantity of solvent at given temperature
• Major ideas:– Many salts dissociate into ions in aqueous solution– If solid forms from combination of selected ions in
solution• Solid must contain anion part and cation part• Net charge on solid must be zero
– Simple solubility rules used to predict products of reactions in aqueous solutions
04/10/23 28
Any ionic compound can be broken apart into its cations and anion
• Compounds containing 3/more different atoms break apart into appropriate polyatomic ion(s)
• Charges of all ions must add up to zero• Subscripts on monatomic ions become
coefficients for ions• For polyatomic ions, only subscripts afterafter
parenthesesparentheses become coefficients• Whether or not ionic compound dissolves to
appreciable extent in water depends on which cations/anions make up compound

Acid-Base TitrationsAcid-Base Titrations• Procedure for determining concentration of unknown
acid (or base) solution (analyteanalyte) using known (standardized) concentration (titranttitrant) of base (or acid) solution
• In titration of acid solution of unknown concentration, a known volume of a standardized base solution is added to acid until acid is just neutralized
• Point at which exactly enough base has been added to neutralize acid-equivalenceequivalence or or stoichiometric pointstoichiometric point
• Point often marked by indicatorindicator, a substance that changes color at (or very near) equivalence point
• Point where indicator actually changes-endpointendpoint
04/10/23 60
• Goal is to choose indicator so endpoint (where indicator changes color) occurs exactly at equivalence point (where just enough titrant has been added to react with all the analyte)
• Because concentration (M) and required volume (V) of base are known, number of moles of base needed to neutralize acid can be calculated
• Use mole ratios from balanced neutralization reaction
• M1V1=M2V2
04/10/23 61
Example• What is the volume of 0.05-molar HCl that is required to
neutralize 50 mL of a 0.10-molar Mg(OH)2 solution?– Every mole of Mg(OH)2 dissociates to produce 2 moles of OH-
ions, so a 0.10 M Mg(OH)2 solution will be a 0.20 M OH- solution
– Solution will be neutralized when # moles of H+ ions added is equal to # mole of OH- originally in the solution
– Moles = molarity x volume– Moles of OH- = (0.20 M)(50 mL) = 10 millimoles = # moles H+
added– Volume = moles/molarity– Volume of HCl = 10 millimoles/0.05 M = 200 mL
• Another way to look at it:– M1V1=M2V2
– (0.05 M)(V) = (0.10 M)(50 mL)(2 moles)

LEO goes GER
• In redox reactions electrons are transferred from one atom to another
– Oxidation• Chemical change in which atom, ion, or molecule
loses electrons
– Reduction • Chemical change in which atom, ion, or molecule
gains electrons
• Oxidation/reduction occur simultaneously

Redox equation balanced by comparing increases and decreases in oxidation #
Tip-off – If you are asked to balance an equation and if you are not told whether the reaction is a redox
reaction or not, you can use the following procedure.
04/10/23 75
• Step 1: Try to balance the atoms in the equation by inspection. If you successfully balance the atoms, go to Step 2. If you are unable to balance the atoms, go to Step 3.
• Step 2: Check to be sure that the net charge is the same on both sides of the equation. If it is, you can assume that the equation is correctly balanced. If the charge is not balanced, go to Step #3.
• Step 3: If you have trouble balancing the atoms and the charge by inspection, determine the oxidation numbers for the atoms in the formula, and go to Step 4.
• Step 4: Determine the net increase in oxidation number for the element that is oxidized and the net decrease in oxidation number for the element that is reduced.
• Step 5: Determine a ratio of oxidized to reduced atoms that would yield a net increase in oxidation number equal to the net decrease in oxidation number (number of electrons lost = number of electrons gained).
• Step 6: Add coefficients to the formulas so as to obtain the correct ratio of the atoms whose oxidation numbers are changing.
• Step 7: Balance the rest of the equation by inspection.
04/10/23 76
NO2(g) + H2(g) NH3(g) + H2O(l)
• The atoms in this equation can be balanced by inspection. (You might first place a 2 in front of the H2O to balance the O’s, then 7/2
in front of the H2 to balance the H’s, and then
multiply all the coefficients by 2 to get rid of the fraction.)
• 2NO2(g) + 7H2(g) 2NH3(g) + 4H2O(l)
• We therefore proceed to Step #2. For the reaction between NO2 and H2, the net charge
on both sides of the equation in Step #1 is zero. Because the charge and the atoms are balanced, the equation is correctly balanced.
04/10/23 77
HNO3(aq) + H3AsO3(aq) NO(g) + H3AsO4(aq) + H2O(l)• Step #1: Try to balance the atoms by inspection.
– The H and O atoms are difficult to balance in this equation.• Step #3: Is the reaction redox?
– The N atoms change from +5 to +2, so they are reduced.– The As atoms, which change from +3 to +5, are oxidized.
• Step #4: Determine the net increase in oxidation number for the element that is oxidized and the net decrease in oxidation number for the element that is reduced.– As +3 to +5 Net Change = +2 – N +5 to +2 Net Change = -3
• Step #5: Determine a ratio of oxidized to reduced atoms that would yield a net increase in oxidation number equal to the net decrease in oxidation number. – As atoms would yield a net increase in oxidation number of +6. (Six
electrons would be lost by three arsenic atoms.) – 2 N atoms would yield a net decrease of -6. (2 N gain 6 e-). – Thus the ratio of As atoms to N atoms is 3:2.
• Step #6: To get the ratio identified in Step 5, add coefficients to the formulas which contain the elements whose oxidation number is changing.– 2HNO3(aq) + 3H3AsO3(aq) NO(g) + H3AsO4(aq) + H2O(l)
• Step #7: Balance the rest of the equation by inspection.– 2HNO3(aq) + 3H3AsO3(aq) 2NO(g) + 3H3AsO4(aq) + H2O(l)

Cu(s) + HNO3(aq) Cu(NO3)2(aq) + NO(g) + H2O(l)• Step #1: Try to balance the atoms by inspection.
– The N atoms and the O atoms are difficult to balance by inspection. • Step #3: Is the reaction redox?
– The copper atoms are changing their oxidation number from 0 to +2, and some of the nitrogen atoms are changing from +5 to +2.
• Step #4: Determine the net increase in oxidation number for element oxidized and the net decrease in oxidation number for element reduced.– Cu 0 to +2 Net Change = +2 – Some N +5 to +2 Net Change = -3
• Step #5: Determine a ratio of oxidized to reduced atoms that would yield a net increase in oxidation number equal to the net decrease in oxidation number. – We need three Cu atoms (net change of +6) for every 2 nitrogen
atoms that change (net change of -6). – Because some of the nitrogen atoms are changing and some are
not, we need to be careful to put the 2 in front of a formula in which all of the nitrogen atoms are changing or have changed.
– The 3 for the copper atoms can be placed in front of the Cu(s). • Step #6: To get the ratio identified in Step 5, add coefficients to the
formulas which contain the elements whose oxidation number is changing.– 3Cu(s) + HNO3(aq) Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO(g) + H2O(l)
• Step #7: Balance the rest of the equation by inspection.– 3Cu(s) + 8HNO3(aq) 3Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO(g) + 4H2O(l)

• Step #2: Balance all elements other than H and O. – Cr2O7
2- 2Cr3+ (need 2 in front of chromium)– HNO2 NO3
- • Step #3: Balance the oxygen atoms by adding H2O
molecules on the side of the arrow where O atoms are needed. – The first half-reaction needs seven oxygen atoms on
the right, so we add seven H2O molecules.• Cr2O7
2- 2Cr3+ + 7H2O – The second half-reaction needs one more oxygen
atom on the left, so we add one H2O molecule. • HNO2 + H2O NO3

• Step #4: Balance H atoms by adding H+ ions on the side of the arrow where H atoms are needed.– 1st half-reaction needs 14 H atoms on left to balance 14
hydrogen atoms in 7 H2O molecules-add 14 H+ ions to left. • Cr2O7
2- + 14H+ 2Cr3+ + 7H2O – 2nd half-reaction needs 3 H atoms on right to balance 3 hydrogen
atoms on left-add 3 H+ ions to the right. • HNO2 + H2O NO3
- + 3H+ • Step #5: Balance the charge by adding electrons.
– Sum of charges on left side of chromium half-reaction is +12 (-2 for the Cr2O7
2- plus +14 for the 14 H+). – Sum of charges on right side of chromium half-reaction is +6 (for
the 2 Cr3+). – Add 6 electrons to left side-sum on each side becomes +6.
• 6e- + Cr2O72- + 14H+ 2Cr3+ + 7H2O
– Sum on the left side of the nitrogen half‑reaction is zero. – Sum on the right side of the nitrogen half-reaction is +2 (-1 for
the nitrate plus +3 for the 3 H+). – Add 2 e’s to right side-sum on each side becomes zero.

04/10/23 84
• Step #6: If # e’s lost in oxidation half ≠ #e’s in reduction half, multiply one or both reactions by # making # e’s gained = # lost. – For Cr half-reaction to gain 6 electrons, N half-reaction must
lose 6 electrons-multiply coefficients in N half-reaction by 3.• 6e- + Cr2O7

- + 3H+ + 2e-) – 3HNO2 + 3H2O 3NO3
- + 9H+ + 6e- • Step #7: Add the 2 half-reactions.
– 3 H2O in 2nd half-reaction cancel 3 of 7 H2O in 1st half-reaction to yield 4 H2O on the right of the final equation.
– 9 H+ on right of 2nd half-reaction cancel 9 of 14 H+ on left of 1st half-reaction leaving 5 H+ on left of final equation.
• Cr2O72- + 3HNO2 + 5H+ 2Cr3+ + 3NO3

charges is +3 on each side, so our equation is correctly balanced.

• Steps 1-7: Begin by balancing the equation as if it were in acid solution. If you have H+ ions in your equation at the end of these steps, proceed to Step #8. Otherwise, skip to Step#11.
• Step 8: Add enough OH- ions to each side to cancel the H+ ions. (Be sure to add the OH- ions to both sides to keep the charge and atoms balanced.)
• Step 9: Combine the H+ ions and OH- ions that are on the same side of the equation to form water.
• Step 10: Cancel or combine the H2O molecules.• Step 11: Check to make sure that the atoms and the
charge balance. If they do balance, you are done. If they do not balance, re-check your work in Steps 1-10.
