NH₃ Ammonia
CH₃NH₂ Methylamine
Amines
Related to ammonia
Base
A substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions, OH⁻, when dissolved in pure water
Ammonia
NH₃; a common weak base that does not have an OH⁻ ion. It produces OH⁻ when combined with water:
NH₃ + H₂O -> NH₄⁺ + OH⁻
Salt
An ionic compound whose cation comes from a base and whose anion comes from an acid
Three ways exchange reactions can occur
formation of:
gas
precipitate
water
Reduced
Gain of electrons
Oxidized
Loss of electrons
Reducing Agent
Donor of electrons, causes reduction, gets oxidized
Oxidizing agent
Recipient of electrons, causes oxidation, gets reduced
An oxidation number compares the ______ of an uncombined atom with its actual _______ or its relative _______ in a compound
An oxidation number compares the _charge_ of an uncombined atom with its actual _charge_ or its relative _charge_ in a compound
The oxidation # of a pure element
0
The oxidation # of a monatomic ion equals:
Its charge
Hydrogen's oxidation # when combined with a metal
+1
Hydrogen's oxidation # when combined with a non-metal
-1
Fluorine's oxidation #:
-1
Oxygen's oxidation #:
-2; except in peroxides (combined with H) when it is -1 (and H is +1)
The sum of oxidation #s in a neutral compound equals . . .
0
The sum of oxidation #s in a polyatomic ion equals . . .
. . . the charge on the ion
Every reaction in which an element becomes combined in a compound is a . . .
. . . redox reaction
Metal Activity Series
A ranking of relative reactivity of metals in displacement and other kinds of reactions
An element higher in the activity series will ________ an element below it in the series from its compounds
An element higher in the activity series will _displace_ an element below it in the series from its compounds
The halogens, in oxidizing strength order
F₂, Cl₂, Br₂, I₂
Solution is a homogeneous mixture of a _______ and a _______
Solution is a homogeneous mixture of a _solute_ and a _solvent_
Solute
The substance that has been dissolved
Solvent
The substance into which the solute has been dissolved
Concentration of a solution
The relative quantities of solute and solvent
Molarity
Relates the ratio of solute to the solution; expresses concentration
Molarity formula
Molarity = (Moles of solute) / (liters of solution)
Symbol for molarity
M
Formula for calculating dilution or concentration of a slution
MOLARITY (conc) * VOLUME (conc) = MOLARITY (dil) * VOLUME (dil)
Standard solution
A solution whose molarity/concentration is known accurately
Equivalence point
The point in a titration at which the stoichiometrically equivalent amount of standard solution has been added to an unknown
End point
The point in a titration at which an indicator is seen to change color
Oxidation-Reduction reaction
A reaction in which one reactant is oxidized while another is reduced.
