4.1 General Properties of Aqueous Solutions

A solution is a homogeneous mixture. Contains: a solvent (greater quantity) and solute(s). Solvent - substance in the mixture which acts as the dissolving medium. Whatever else is dissolved in the solution is called the solute(s).

Cont: 4.1 General Properties of Aqueous Solutions

E.g. NaCl (s) + H2O (l) solute solvent NaCl (aq) aqueous solution

Solution in which water is the dissolving medium are called aqueous solutions.

Cont: 4.1 General Properties of Aqueous Solutions

All aqueous solutions can be classified in terms of its electrical conductivity. Solution conducts electricity: forms ions in solution is an electrolyte. e.g. NaCl (an ionic compound)
# conducts electricity well: strong electrolyte (NaCl) # conducts electricity poorly: weak electrolytes (CH3COOH)

Cont: 4.1 General Properties o Aqueous Solutions

Solution does not conduct electricity does not form ions in solution is a non electrolyte e.g. sugar (a molecular compound)

4.1.1 Ionic Compounds in Water

Ionic compounds dissolve in water, dissociate into anions and cations. The solid no longer exists as a well ordered arrangement, each ion is surrounded by water molecules. The ions are dispersed uniformly throughout the solution. The relative concentrations of the ions depend on the chemical formula of the compound. (Sec: 4.5.2)

4.1.2 Molecular Compounds in Water

Molecular compounds (e.g. CH3OH, sugar etc.) dissolve and exist as dispersed molecules throughout the solution. The structural integrity of the compound is maintained. Does not form ions no ions to conduct electricity. they are non-electrolytes

4.1.3 Strong and Weak Electrolytes

Electrolyte: any substance whose aqueous solution contains ions that conduct electricity. Strong electrolytes - ionize 100 %in a solvent. E.g. (i) Most ionic compounds (salt), NaOH (ii) Strong acids and bases: HCl, HBr, HClO4
A single arrow (): ionization of strong electrolytes. A single arrow indicates that ions have no tendency to recombine.
11

Cont: 4.1.3 Strong and Weak Electrolytes

Weak electrolytes - Incompletely ionization (small amount of ions). E.g. (i) Weak acid : HF, H2S, HC2H3O etc. (ii) Weak base : NH3, amine
A 1.0 M solution of acetic acid HC2H3O2: Small fraction (about 1 %) is present as H+ and C2H3O2 - ions. Most is present as HC2H3O2 molecules.
HC2H3O2 (aq)

The double arrow () is significant: HC2H3O2 molecules are ionizing to form H+ and C2H3O2- and at the same time H+ and C2H3O2- ions are recombining.
Note: A double arrow electrolytes.

4.2 Precipitation Reactions

Precipitation: the reaction forming insoluble product (called precipitate).
caused by the attraction between the oppositely charged ions in the solid being too great for the water molecules to pull them apart.

For a metathesis reaction to occur, ions must be removed from the solution (Sec. 4.2.3)
19

Cont: 4.2.2 Metathesis Reaction: Driving Forces

Three chemical processes can lead to the removal of ions from solution (driving force for metathesis to occur): (i) The formation of an insoluble product (called a precipitate).(4.2) (ii) The formation of either a weak electrolyte or a non electrolyte.(4.3.4) (iii) The formation of a gas that escapes from solution.(4.3.3)

If one reactant is a salt containing the carbonate ion or the hydrogen carbonate ion and the other is a strong acid, the products will be a salt containing the anion of the acid, water and CO2.

92

Cont: 4.6.1 Titration

The point at which stoichiometrically equivalent quantities are brought together is known as the equivalence point of the titration. In acid-base titration, dyes known as acid-base indicators are used to determine the end point. e.g. Phenolphthalein is colorless in acidic solution, red in basic solution. The color change from colorless to red end point of the titration.
93

Cont: 4.6.1 Titration

The equivalence point of the titration is the point where the stoichiometrically correct number of the moles of each reactant is present. The end point of the titration is the point where the indicator changes.
Note: The equivalence point and end point are not the same, but coincide closely.

added to 0.400L of 0.550M solution of HBr.

The solution that remains is still acidic. It is then titrated with 0.5M NaOH solution which requires 165 mL to reach the equivalence point. What is the actual mass of Zn(OH)2 in

the sample? What is its mass percentage?

98

Example 12 (Answer)
Acid + Base water (neutralization rxn) H+ + OH- salt + H20 From Equation: Mol H+ (from HBr) = mol OH- (from Zn(OH)2 +
mol OH- (from NaOH)

H+ = 0.550M x 4.0L = 0.220 moles OH- (from NaOH) = 0.5M x (165/1000)L = 0.0825 moles OH- (from Zn(OH)2) = ? (x moles)
99

(Answer)
X moles = 0.22 moles 0.0825 moles = 0.1375 moles OH- from Zn(OH)2
Zn(OH)2 Zn2+ + 2OHIf you we have 0.1375 moles of OH- = 0.1375/2 moles Zn(OH)2 = 0.06875 moles So Zn(OH)2 = 0.06875 mol x 99.41 g/mole = 6.8344 g
Mass percentage = 6.8344/10 x 100 = 68.34%

Example 13
Calculate the mass of PbSO4, when 1.25 L of 0.0500 M Pb(NO3)2 and 2.00 L of 0.0250M Na2SO4 are mixed.
Molecular Equation:

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) PbSO4(s) +

2NaNO3(aq)
103

Example 13 (Answer)
Ionic Equation:
2Na+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + Pb2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) PbSO4(s) + 2Na+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) Net ionic equation: SO42-(aq) + Pb2+(aq) PbSO4(s)

104

Example 13 (Answer)
Moles of reactants
moles of Pb2+ = 1.25 L 0.0500 mol = 0.0625 mol Pb2+ L moles of SO42= 2.00 L 0.0250 mol = 0.0500 mol SO42L
105

Example 13 (Answer)
Limiting Reactants
Pb2+ and SO42- react in a 1:1 ratio , the amount of SO42- will be the limiting factor. Grams of product
0.0500 mol PbSO4 303.3 g PbSO4 = 15.2 g PbSO4 1 mol PbSO4
