Rules for Significant Figures
All nonzero digits are significant.

Zeroes between two significant figures are themselves significant.

Zeroes at the beginning of a number are never significant.

Zeroes at the end of a number are significant if a decimal point is written in the number.

dissociation
When an ionic substance dissolves in water, the solvent pulls the individual ions from the crystal and solvates them.
electrolyte
An electrolyte is a substances that dissociates into ions when dissolved in water.
Strong Acids
HCl, HBr, HI, HClO3, HClO4, HNO3, H2SO4
Strong bases
Alkali-OH, Ca, Sr, Ba-OH
Steps to writing net ionic equations
Write a balanced molecular equation.

Dissociate all strong electrolytes.

Cross out anything that remains unchanged from the left side to the right side of the equation.

Write the net ionic equation with the species that remain.
Net ionic equation of strong neutralization reactions
H+ + OH- ==> H2O
Oxidation Rules
Oxygen has an oxidation number of −2, except in the peroxide ion in which it has an oxidation number of −1.

Hydrogen is −1 when bonded to a metal, +1 when bonded to a nonmetal.

Fluorine always has an oxidation number of −1.

The other halogens have an oxidation number of −1 when they are negative; they can have positive oxidation numbers, however, most notably in oxyanions.
displacement reactions
ions oxidize an element.

Internal Energy:

State function or not?
Initial Energy IS a state function

q and w are NOT
work done by gas = __ ___
work = -P /\ V
Enthalpy (Heat) =
H = E +PV
If /\H is positive
Endothermic

/\H=+
If a process has a negative /\H
It's exothermic
Enthalpy /\H
total /\H = /\H products - /\H reactants
Enthalpy is an ____ property
extensive
Hess' Law
If a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, /\H for the overall reaction will be equal to the sum of enthalpy changes for the individual steps
/\ H = (Hess' Law)
/\H = total products - total reactants
