Lesson 25: You Light Up My Life Classifying Substances

Chem. Catalyst 1. If you were to drop a spoonful of salt, Na. Cl, into a glass of water, what would happen? 2. If you were to drop a gold ring into a glass of water, what would happen? 3. What do you think is different about the atoms of these two substances? Why do you suppose the gold atoms don’t break apart?

Key Question How can substances be sorted into general categories?

You will be able to: • • • classify substances into four categories based on solubility and conductivity explain the difference between the terms soluble and insoluble begin to describe the atomic makeup of substances based on whether they are soluble and/or conduct electricity

Prepare for the Lab Work in pairs. Wear safety goggles at all times during the lab. Dissolve: To disperse evenly into another substance. For example, a solid can dissolve in a liquid. Conductivity: A property that describes how well a substance transmits electricity.

Prepare for the Lab (cont. ) Dissolving and conductivity can be demonstrated with a powdered sports drink and a light bulb assembly like the one shown below.

Discussion Notes Generalizations about substances that do not light up the bulb: • Compounds made up of C, H, and O atoms do not conduct electricity. • Compounds made up entirely of nonmetals do not light up the bulb. • Compounds made up of a combination of metals and nonmetals do not light up the bulb when they are in their solid form.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Generalizations about substances that do light up the bulb: • Everything that lights up the bulb has a metal atom in it. • Compounds made of metal and nonmetal atoms, such as salts, light up the bulb when they are dissolved in water. (The sports drink is a solution of water, various salts, sugar, and a dye. ) • Metal solids light up the bulb.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Solubility and Conductivity

Discussion Notes (cont. ) We can place all the substances tested into one of the four categories. Soluble: Describes a substance that is capable of being dissolved in another substance. Insoluble: Describes a substance that is incapable of being dissolved in another substance.

Wrap Up How can substances be sorted into general categories? • Not all substances dissolve in water. • Not all substances conduct electricity. • Solid metals and metal–nonmetal compounds dissolved in water conduct electricity.

Lesson 26: Electron Glue Bonding

Chem. Catalyst A gold ring is made up of individual gold atoms. 1. What keeps the atoms together? Why don’t they break apart from one another? 2. What parts of the atom do you think are responsible for keeping the atoms together in a solid?

Key Question How are atoms connected to one another?

You will be able to: • define a chemical bond and describe the four basic types of chemical bonds • use chemical formulas to sort substances into bonding categories • predict the properties of a substance based on its chemical formula and bonding type

Prepare for the Activity Work in pairs. Chemical bond: An attraction between atoms that holds them together in space.

Prepare for the Activity (cont. ) Four Models of Bonding

Discussion Notes The different locations of the electrons among atoms account for many different properties of substances.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Ionic bonding: A type of chemical bonding that is the result of transfer of electrons from one atom to another. Covalent bonding: A type of chemical bonding in which one or more pairs of valence electrons are shared between the atoms. Covalent bonding can be molecular covalent or network covalent.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Metallic bond: A bond between metal atoms in which the valence electrons are free to move throughout the substance. Molecule: A group of atoms covalently bonded together.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) The chart created in the previous lesson can now be labeled with the four types of bonds.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Bonding also relates to the type of atom in the substance—metal or nonmetal. Metal atoms Metallic Nonmetal atoms Network covalent Molecular covalent Metal and nonmetal atoms Ionic

Wrap Up How are atoms connected to one another? • A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms involving valence electrons. • There are four types of bonds: ionic, network covalent, molecular covalent, and metallic. • Valence electrons are distributed differently depending on the type of bond.

Check-in Imagine that you have a mystery substance that does not dissolve in water and does conduct electricity. 1. What type of bonding will you probably find in your substance? Explain. 2. List one other property of your mystery substance.

Lesson 27: Electrons on the Move Electroplating Metals

Chem. Catalyst 1. What is the charge on the copper ions in this copper chloride compound? 2. How do you think we could get solid copper from a sample of copper (II) sulfate, Cu. SO 4? Copper and chlorine atoms combine to form copper (II) chloride.

Key Question How can you extract an element from a compound?

You will be able to: • • assemble an electroplating apparatus explain how to extract elemental metal from an ionic compound through electroplating

Prepare for the Lab Work in pairs. Wear safety goggles at all times. The solution contains acid, which is corrosive. Before handling the nickel strip, rinse it with water.

Discussion Notes It is possible to transform metal cations in solution into neutral metal atoms, using electricity.

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Aqueous copper (II) sulfate, Cu. SO 4(aq), is really copper cations, Cu 2+, and sulfate anions, SO 42–. Before connecting to the battery

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Once the battery is hooked up, one nickel strip has a positive charge, and the other has a negative charge. After connecting to the battery

Discussion Notes (cont. ) Many elements are found in nature only in combination with other atoms in compounds. While you cannot make gold by moving electrons, you can plate thin layers of gold onto jewelry.

Wrap Up How can you extract an element from a compound? • Atoms are not destroyed when they combine to form compounds. Matter is conserved. • Ions are simply atoms or groups of atoms with charges on them because they either are missing electrons or have extra electrons. • Elements can be extracted from ionic compounds by moving electrons between atoms.
