Why is the number of moles so important?
- Calculating quantities needed to make up solutions of specific concentrations
(molarities)
- Calculating the quantities of both the reactants required to carry out a chemical
reaction, and the amounts of products that will be formed
- Understanding and describing chemical reactions requires:
o A balanced chemical equation
o Relative amounts of each reactant needed
o Relative amounts of each product made
- These relationships are described in terms of moles
o 2NaCl(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) PbCl2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)
o 2 mole + 1 mole 1 mole + 2 mole
o to precipitate 0.5 mole PbCl2(s) how many moles of:
NaCl are required? 1 mol
Pb(NO3)2 are required? O.5 mol
Acids:
- Molecular compounds that releases H+ ions in H2O solution (H3O+)
- Usually consists of H atoms (written first) and atoms of a non-metal
(or group of non-metals)
- examples of binary acids:
o HF hydrofluoric acid contains fluoride
o HCl hydrochloric acid contains chloride
o HBr hydrobromic acid contains bromide
- Examples of oxyacids:
o HNO3 nitric acid contains nitrate ions
o H2SO4 sulfuric acid contains sulphate ions
- Organic acids:
o CH3COOH acetic acid contains acetate ions
o C6H5COOH benzoic acid contains benzoate ions
Acids in water solution:
- Acids dissolve in water to give the hydronium ion H3O+ (a more accurate description f
H+ in water)
o HCl(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
o H2SO4(aq) + 2H20(l) 2H3O+(aq) + SO4
2−
(aq)
o CH3COOH(aq) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq) + CH3COO
(aq)
- H3O+ is sometimes abbreviated to H+ when water is left out of the equation
o HCl(aq) H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
o H2SO4(aq) 2H+(aq) + SO4
2−
(aq)
Acid strength:
- Acids can also be classified into weak and strong acids
o Depends on the ease with which the acid releases its H+
- Strong acids:
o Completely dissociate to give ions in solution
o Most binary and oxyacids are strong
o E.g. HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, H2SO4

Document Summary

Calculating quantities needed to make up solutions of specific concentrations (molarities) Calculating the quantities of both the reactants required to carry out a chemical reaction, and the amounts of products that will be formed. Understanding and describing chemical reactions requires: a balanced chemical equation, relative amounts of each reactant needed, relative amounts of each product made. Molecular compounds that releases h+ ions in h2o solution (h3o+) Usually consists of h atoms (written first) and atoms of a non-metal (or group of non-metals) Examples of binary acids: hf, hcl, hbr hydrofluoric acid hydrochloric acid hydrobromic acid contains fluoride contains chloride contains bromide. Organic acids: nitric acid sulfuric acid contains nitrate ions contains sulphate ions: ch3cooh, c6h5cooh acetic acid benzoic acid contains acetate ions contains benzoate ions. Acids dissolve in water to give the hydronium ion h3o+ (a more accurate description f. H+ in water) (aq) + cl: hcl(aq, h2so4(aq) + 2h20(l) 2h3o, ch3cooh(aq) + h2o(l) h3o+
