2Fe + 3CuCl2 ---> 3Cu + 2FeCl3
In our lab groups we dissolved copper chloride into water, added two iron nails into the solution, removed the two iron nails from the solution and dried them, and weighed the mass of the copper chloride, solution, and two iron nails each time a condition or characteristic of the material changed. Later, we discussed our recorded results with one another and handed in a lab report as a group.

Last class, we did a balloon experiment and that it occupies a certain gas which depends on temperature and pressure.
Standard Pressure and Temperature (STP)
0 Degrees Celsius and 101.3 kPa
273k
Standard Ambient Temperature and Pressure (SATP)
25 Degrees Celsius and 100 kPa
298k
- The volume of 1.0 mole of any gas at STP is 22.4L. The molar volume at STP is 22.4L.
22.4L over 1 mol or 1mol over 22.4L ( At STP only)
EXAMPLE: Find the volume occupied by 0.060 mol of CO2 gas at STP.
0.060 mol x 22.4L over 1.0 mol = 1.34L.

The Mole

1 Mole = {6.02 x1023} known as Avogadro's number
= 602 000 000 000 000 000 000 000
.. therefore, 1 mole is just a really big number!
Hydrogen Bomb Equation
2H2 + O2 -> 2H20
is actually..
(2 H2 molecules) and (1 O2 molecule) = (2 molecules of H20)
is also..
12.04 x 103 + 6.02 x 103 --> 12.04 x 1023
is also..
2 mol of H2 + 1 mol of O2 --> 2 mol of water
How big is Avogadro's number?
if 1 mole = 6.02 x 103 was represented in dollars and divided among every person in the world..
about $1.0 x 1014 -> each person would have $100 trillion!!!!
How Gases Combine
- John Dalton looked at the masses of gases such as H2, N2, and C in comparison to O2 but unfortunately, discovered there was no pattern.
- Joseph Gay-Lussac combined gases based on volume.
ex. 1L of H2 reacts with 1L of Cl2 -> 2L of HCl
1L of N2 reacts with 3L of H2 -> 2L of NH3
2L of CO reacts with 1L of O2 -> 2L of CO2
He discovered that gases combine in simple, whole number ratios.
Avogadro's Hypothesis
- he came to believe that equal volumes of any gas at a constant temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules (but have different mass)
ex. [(*) to represent one molecule]
H2 (*)(*)(*)(*)
O2 (*)(*)(*)(*)
And in case you still don't understand the mole, here is a video to help:

Bunsen Burner Yay!

After school class, we did a lab with the bunsen burners. This was our first time using it and we were really excited. So this is what happened. We used a test tube and weight it on a scale. Then we started off with the lab. We used the bunsen burners and heated up a substance that starts off purple colour. As it got heated, the solid became a liquid and the colour turned blue. We weight the test tube again with the substance and the weight got lighter. We recorded what we got, and handed the sheet in to Mr. Doktor.

Acids
-solid, liquid or gas at SATP (25°, 100kPa)
-form conducting aqueous solutions
-turns blue litmus red
-dissolve in water to produce H+
-taste sour
-slippery
-nonconductive
-dissolve in water to produce OH-
- hydrogen compounds are acids
-HCL(aq) ---> Hydrochloric Acid
-H2SO4(aq) ---> Sulfuric Acid
-Hydogen appears first in the formula unless it is part of a polyatiomic group
-CH3COOH(aq) ---> Acetic Acid
-classical rules use the suffix ic and/or the prefix hydro-
ex. Hydrochloric acid
-IUPAC systme uses the aqueous hydrogen compound
ex. HCL(aq) ---> Aqueous Hydrogen Chloride
-NaOH
-Ba(OH)2
-use the cation name followed by hydroxide
-sodium hydroxide
-barium hydroxide
EXAMPLES:
-HI(aq) hdroiodic acid
-H3PO4(aq) phospheric acid

-HNO3(aq) nitric acid
-HNO2(aq) nitrous acid
-Mg(OH)2(aq) magnesium hyfroxide

In additon to the notes we took today, Mr. Doktor also showed us a demo for acids and bases. We had baking soda ready to neurtalize the extremely, strong smell it produced.

Hydrates and Molecular Compounds

In today's class, we talked about hydrates and molecular compounds, as well as how to name them and the IUPAC formulas.
Hydrates: are compounds that form lattices which bond to water molecules, and the crystals that contain water inside can be released by heating
If a compound does not have water, it is often preceded by "anhydrous" (i.e. copper sulfate anhydrous)
How to name hydrates:
ex. Nickel II sulfate hexahydrate = Ni(SO4) · 6H2O (s)
The Prefixes in order to name the number of molecules:
Mono =1
Di = 2
Tri = 3
Tetra = 4
Penta =5
Hexa = 6
Hepta = 7
Octa = 8
Nona = 9
Deca = 10
Molecular compounds: are composed of two or more non-metals; they have a low melting point and boiling point; they share electrons; usually end in -gen, or -ine
Here's an example of a molecular compound. Look closely, and you'll see that the compound is bonded together due to the SHARING of electrons rather than the exchanging of electrons.
In addition, we learned some IUPAC formulas:
IUPAC NAME FORMULA
Water* H20
Hydrogen Peroxide* H202
Ammonia* NH3
Glucose* C6H1206
Sucrose* C12H22011
Methane CH4
Propane C3H8
Octane C8H18
Methanol CH30H
Ethanol C2H50H
*important formulas to know for tests and future use
Here's a video about gas hydrates, talking about how ice can be used for fuel!
- Write the name of the chemical formula
- Add a prefix indicating the number of water molecules
- Add "hydrate" after the prefix
ex. Nickel II sulfate hexahydrate = Ni(SO4) · 6H2O (s)
Mono =1
Di = 2
Tri = 3
Tetra = 4
Penta =5
Hexa = 6
Hepta = 7
Octa = 8
Nona = 9
Deca = 10
- Diatomic molecules: (when 2 of the elements are the same) H2, N2, O2, F2, Br2, I2
- Polyatomic molecules: (S8, P4)
- Write the formula for the least electronegative ion first, then the formula for the most electronegative ion.
- Criss-cross the charges, moving the numbers below.
- Reduce the ion numbers to the lowest common multiples. Note: You do not need to write the subscript '1' or the ionic charges.
Water* H20
Hydrogen Peroxide* H202
Ammonia* NH3
Glucose* C6H1206
Sucrose* C12H22011
Methane CH4
Propane C3H8
Octane C8H18
Methanol CH30H
Ethanol C2H50H

Chemical Nomenclature

lacheeeks
In today's class, we discussed atoms, ions, elements and compounds as well as how to name ionic binary compounds.
Things to know:
How to name ions:
How to name binary ionic compounds:
Naming polyatomic compounds is quite similar to that of naming binary ionic compounds. The steps are exactly the same. The only difference is that there will be more than one element written in one ion. Don't get confused!
How to name multivalent ions:
Additional help on how to name ionic compounds:
- An element is a substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by a chemical change.
- A compound is a substance that contains two or more elements combined in a fixed proportion.
- A hydrate is any class of compound containing water. The procedure of how to name hydrates is in the following post.
- A multivalent element has more than one ionic charge. In the periodic table, the most common ionic charge will be placed first for the element.
- An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical identity of the element; made up of negatively charged electrons, positively charged protons, and uncharged neutrons. Its structure:
- An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has a positive or negative charge because it has lost or gained electrons.
- The difference between an atom and an ion: an ion is an atom or group of atoms, normally electrically neutral, that has lost or gained one or more electrons.
- An ion consisting of a single atom is called a monatomic ion, and an ion consisting of multiple atoms is called a polyatomic ion. Larger ions containing many atoms are called molecular ions.
- for metals, use the name of the element and write the ion charge
- for non-metals, remove the original ending and add 'ide' and write the ion charge
- for polyatomic ions, there are special names
How to name binary ionic compounds:
- Write the formula for the cation first, and the formula for the anion.
- Criss-cross the charges, moving the numbers below.
- Reduce the ion numbers to the lowest common multiples. Note: You do not need to write the subscript '1' or the ionic charges.
Naming polyatomic compounds is quite similar to that of naming binary ionic compounds. The steps are exactly the same. The only difference is that there will be more than one element written in one ion. Don't get confused!
How to name multivalent ions:
- the more common charge will be placed on top in the periodic table
- remember to use roman numerals in parentheses to show the charge
