Atomic mass unit • The atomic mass unit (u), is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular masses. • It is the approximate mass of a hydrogen atom, a proton, or a neutron. • By definition the atomic mass unit is equal to one-twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

The Atom • The nucleus is very small, dense, and positively charged. • Electrons surround the nucleus. • Most of the atom is empty space

Families of the Periodic Table

The Noble Gases • • Elements in group 18 All are gases. VERY non-reactive. Have a full outer energy level.

The Octet Rule • The octet rule states that an element's outer energy level is full and most stable when it contains eight electrons. • This stability is the reason that the noble gases are so non-reactive.

Exception to the Octet Rule • The first energy level can only hold two electrons and so elements such as Hydrogen and Helium that only have one energy level follow a “duet rule”.

Ion Vocabulary • An ion is an atom or group of atoms that have a charge. • A monatomic ion is an atom with a charge. • The charge on the atom is called an oxidation number. • A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge. • A cation is a positive ion. • An anion is a negative ion.

An ion is an atom, or group of atoms, that has a net positive or negative charge. cation – ion with a positive charge If a neutral atom loses one or more electrons it becomes a cation. Na 11 protons 11 electrons Na+ 11 protons 10 electrons anion – ion with a negative charge If a neutral atom gains one or more electrons it becomes an anion. Cl 17 protons 17 electrons Cl- 17 protons 18 electrons 2. 5

Ionic • When an element that easily loses electrons (a metal) reacts with an element that easily gains electrons (a nonmetal), one or more electrons are transferred. • This creates two ions which are held together by an ionic bond. • A compound that contains ions is called an ionic compound.

Formula Unit A formula unit is the empirical formula of an ionic compound. It is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound. Examples include ionic Na. Cl and K 2 O. Ionic compounds do not exist as individual molecules; a formula unit thus indicates the lowest reduced ratio of ions in the compound.

Covalent • When atoms share electrons the bond created is said to be covalent. Covalent bonds often form between nonmetal atoms. • These covalently bonded atoms act as single units called molecules. • A compound made up of molecules is a covalent compound.

Polyatomic Ions Note that these are charges and not oxidation numbers.

Types of monatomic ions and the rules for naming them • The periodic table is useful in naming the monatomic ions.

Monatomic cations with one oxidation number • The cations from the periodic table which have a single oxidation number are as follows: Group 1 (+1), Group 2 (+2), Ag+, Cd 2+, Zn 2+, and Al 3+. • These types of ions are named by using the name of the element followed by the word ion. • Na+ sodium ion • Ba 2+ barium ion • Zn 2+ zinc ion • We can use the roman numeral from the periodic table to identify the oxidation number for these ions.

Monatomic cations with multiple oxidation numbers • All other cations that are not listed in the previous category (“cations with one oxidation number) are considered to have the possibility of multiple oxidation numbers. • These type of ions are named by using the name of the element followed by a Roman numeral to indicate the oxidation number. • Cu 2+ copper (II) • Pb 4+ lead (IV) • Mn 7+ manganese (VII)

Monatomic anions • All anions from the periodic table are named by changing the ending of the element’s name to –ide. • F- fluoride ion • O 2 - oxide ion • N 3 - nitride ion • Count back from the noble gases starting at zero to determine the oxidation number.

Types of Net Ionic Equations 1. Double Replacement Reactions: These reactions start with two compounds and produce two different compounds. Such reactions can be expected when the two reactants are some combination of acid, base, or salt. The products can be predicted by exchanging the positive parts of the two reactants. • If carbonic acid, H 2 CO 3 is produced as a product it should be written as H 2 O and CO 2. If ammonium hydroxide, NH 4 OH is produced as a product it should be written as NH 3 and H 2 O.

(d) a metal oxide and a nonmetal oxide combine to form a salt. In these reactions it is necessary to know the charges of certain ions in order to predict the formulas of your products. You should determine these ion charges by using their charges within the reacting substances. If this is impossible use your prior experience or the periodic table to make a prediction.

Decomposition Reactions: 4. These reactions begin with a single compound and decompose into more than one product. In general they are simply the reverse of the synthesis reactions listed in #3 above. There are however a few other common decomposition reactions that you should learn: (a) Hydrogen peroxide, H 2 O 2 will decompose into water, H 2 O and oxygen, O 2. (b) Potassium chlorate, KCl. O 3 will decompose into potassium chloride, KCl and oxygen O 2.

Here are some decomposition reactions from previous AP Tests • Solid calcium sulfite is heated in a vacuum. • A solution of hydrogen peroxide is exposed to an iron catalyst. • Solid potassium chlorate is heated in the presence of a manganese dioxide catalyst.

Complex Ion Formation (Coordination Compounds): 5. These reactions involve the reaction of two compounds to form a complex ion (coordination compound). One of the reacting compounds serves as a source of metal ions and the other reacting compound serves as a source of ligands. A complex ion (coordination compound) is a combination of metal ions and ligands. Ligands are normally ammonia (NH 3), hydroxide (OH-), or cyanide (CN). There needs to be a large supply of ligand for a complex ion to form. This is normally indicated within a reaction by words such as concentrated and/or excess. To form a complex ion take the metal ion and add a number of ligands which equal twice the metal ions oxidation number. For example if the metal ion has an oxidation number of 2+ you should add four of the ligands to it. Then simply add up the charges within the complex ion and determine the final charge.

Teacher Example: Excess concentrated ammonia is added to a solution of nickel (II) sulfate.

An excess of ammonia gas is bubbled through a solution saturated with silver chloride. NH 3 + Ag. Cl → Ag(NH 3)2+ + Cl- What happens to the Ag. Cl in this reaction?
