Atomic Structure The nucleus contains protons (positively charged) and neutrons (neutrally charged).

ed). The atomic number (proton number) is equal to the number of protons in the atoms nucleus and the amount of electrons orbiting the nucleus The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Ions do not have the same number of electrons as protons, and so have an overall charge. Name Relative charge Relative mass proton +1 1 neutron 0 1 Electron -1 1/2000

Isotopes and Relative Masses Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. The relative atomic mass is the weighted mean mass of an atom of an element relative to C12. The relative formula mass of a compound is equal to the sum of the individual relative atomic masses. How to calculate an isotopes relative atomic mass (Isotopes Mr x % abundance) +(the isotopes other Mr x % composition) 100

The Mole a mole of a substance contains the same number of particles as there are in 12.0g of carbon-12 (6.023 x 1023 particles, also known as Avogadros number) One mole of a substance is simply the relative formula mass for a compound, or relative atomic mass for an element in grams. The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element present in a compound. The molecular formula is the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule.

Steps to calculate the empirical formula 1. Find the moles of the known substance 2. Find the molar ratio 3. Find the moles of the other substance 4. Change to its simplest form (empirical formula)

Molecular formula Molecular formula is the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule. You can determine the molecular formula of a molecule from the empirical formula by Diving the molecular mass of the molecule by the relative molecular mass, then multiplying each molecule by this number. Equations involving the Mole, concentration and volume Moles= concentration x volume Mass (g) = Moles x Molar mass Volume = Concentration x 24dm3

Steps to calculate masses made in a reaction 1. Balance equation 2. Calculate moles of known 3. Work out mole ratio of unknown 4. Convert moles to grams Steps to calculate volume in dm3 or cm3 1. Divide mass by molar mass to give the amount of moles 2. Multiply the amount of moles by 24dm3 , this gives volume in dm3 3. But if you need to calculate volume in cm3 multiply by 1,000 Acids and Bases An acid is a hydrogen ion (H+) or proton donor in solution, A base is a hydrogen ion or proton acceptor in solution. Hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and nitric acid (HNO3) are common acids. Bases include metal oxides (e.g. MgO) metal hydroxides (e.g. NaOH) and ammonia (NH3). Alkalis are soluble bases and form hydroxide ions OH-, in solution. metal oxides, metal hydroxides, metal carbonates and ammonia are all bases Metal oxides contain the oxide ion (O2-). An oxide ion can accept two protons to form a water molecule: O2- + 2H+ H2O Metal hydroxides contain the hydroxide ion (OH-). A hydroxide ion can accept a proton to form a water molecule: OH- + H+ H2O Metal carbonates contain the carbonate ion (CO32-). A carbonate ions can accept two protons to form carbon dioxide and water: CO32- + 2H+ CO2 + H2O Ammonia can accept a proton to form an ammonium ion: NH3 + H+ NH4+

Reactions of Acids and Bases The reaction between an acid and a base is called a neutralisation reaction. Salts are formed when a hydrogen ion from the acid is replaced by a metal ion, or an ammonium ion. Acids react with bases to form a salt and water only; they react with metal carbonates to form a salt, water and carbon dioxide gas. Metals react with acids to form a salt and hydrogen gas. Salts may chemically combine with water as water of crystallization in hydrated salts. Water of crystallisation can be removed by heating. Reactants Products Acid + base Salt + water Acid + Carbonate Salt + water + carbon dioxide Acid + alkali Salt + water Observing neutralisation reactions There is no visible change when an acid reacts with a soluble metal hydroxide or ammonia as all the reactants and products are colourless solutions. You need an indicator to determine that a reaction is taking place. When an acid reacts with a solid metal hydroxide or oxide, the solid dissolves in the acid to form a solution. When an acid reacts with a solid metal carbonate, the solid dissolves in the acid to form a solution and bubbles/fizzing/effervescence is seen When an acid reacts with an aqueous metal carbonate, bubbles/fizzing/effervescence is seen

Salts and hydrated salts A salt is an ionic compound that results from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base, when the H+ ion of the acid is replaced by a metal ion or another positive ion such as ammonium (NH4+) When an acid reacts with a base, it loses its H+ ion. The H ion is replaced either with the metal ion from the base or with an ammonium ion. The resulting compound is called a salt. An anhydrous salt is a salt that contains no water. Hydrated salts become anhydrous salts once they are heated. Salts are composed of anions (negative ions) and cations (positive ions) Water of crystallisation occurs in salts, it is the water molecules that are trapped inside of hydrated salts

A hydrated salt is a salt that contains loosely bonded water molecules, this form when salts crystallise from a solution Water of crystallisation are separated by a dot formula e.g. CuSO4.5H2O , This shows that for every mole of CuSO4 there are 5 moles of water. The number of moles of water of crystallisation is different for every salt, but it must always be a whole number!

How to calculate the composition of hydrated salts 1. Enter the % then divide by the molar mass to give moles 2. Then divide the moles by the smallest to get the molar ratio 3. From this you can then derive the dot formula,which must be in whole numbers! Using mass data to find the value of X in hydrated salts 1. Enter the mass in grams 2. Then divide the mass by the molar mass to give the amount of moles 3. Then divide both of the moles by the smallest to get the molar ratios 4. From this you can then derive the dot formula, which must be in whole numbers! Acid-Base titrations These are carried out to discover how much acid is needed to neutralise a base or vice versa Volume is measured in cm3 Concentration is measured in mol/dm3 How to carry out a titration 1. Using a pipette add a measured volume of one solution to a conical flask. 2. The other solution is placed in a burette. 3. The solution in the burette is added to the solution in the conical flask, until the reaction has been completed. This is called the end point of the titration. 4. Then the volume of the solution added from the burette is measured. The end point of the titration is identified using an indicator. Indicator Colour in acid Colour in End point colour if acid has base been added to base Methyl orange red yellow orange Bromothymol yellow blue Green blue phenolphthalein colourless pink pink

To find out the concentration of the acid/base 1. Balance the equation 2. Divide the volume by 1,000 to turn it from cm3 to dm3 3. Multiply the volume in dm3 by the concentration in mol/dm3 to find the moles of the known substance 4. Then you can find the molar ratio 5. Multiply or divide by the molar ratio to find the concentration of the unknown Redox reactions A redox reaction is a reaction which involves oxidation and reduction. Oxidation is the loss of electrons (in terms of electrons) Reduction is the gain of electrons (in terms of electrons) Oxidation is also the increase in oxidation number during a reaction (in terms of oxidation number) Reduction is the decrease in oxidation number (in terms of oxidation number) You can find out what element is being oxidised or reduced in a reaction by finding out their oxidation number, before and after the reaction. Oxidising agents cause oxidation by accepting an electron A reducing agent causes reduction by donating an electron You must be able to express half equations for redox reactions e.g. during the reaction between Mg + Cl2 -> MgCl2 Mg is oxidised Mg-> Mg2+ + 2 e And Cl is reduced Cl + e- -> ClOxidation Numbers An oxidation number indicates the formal charge of a chemically combined particle in a compound. The oxidation number is also the number of electrons that an atom uses to bond with atoms of another element. The oxidation number of metals usually equals the group number (as a positive value) and minus (8-group number) for non-metals. An element has been oxidised if the oxidation number increases, and reduced if the oxidation number decreases. When they react, metals are normally oxidised (they lose electrons), whereas non-metals gain electrons and are reduced.

Oxidation number rules

An element in its natural state and compounds have oxidation numbers of 0 The oxidation number of a monatomic ion has the same charge as the ion Hydrogens oxidation number is +1 (in a compound) Oxygens oxidation number is -2 (in a compound) Group 1 elements have an oxidation number of +1 Group 2 elements have an oxidation number of +2 Group 3 elements have an oxidation number of +3 Group 7 elements have an oxidation number of -1 The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is 0. The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.

EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULE When bonded to fluorine, oxygen has an oxidation number of +2. In peroxides, oxygen has an oxidation number of -1. (as fluorine is the most electronegative element) When bonded to metals in hydrides, hydrogen has an oxidation number of -1. Oxidation numbers in formulae Compounds have no overall charge so the sum of the oxidation numbers must equal zero. Molecular ions have an overall charge, so the sum of the oxidation numbers in the ion must equal the charge. Oxyanions These are negative ions which contain an element along with oxygen.

Electrons occupy energy levels around the nucleus of the atom, where each shell has a principal quantum number. For principal quantum number, n=1, the number of electrons is 2; for n=2, the number is 8; then 18; then 32 electrons for n=4. Main energy levels are sub-divided into sub-shells and these consist of orbitals called s, p and d-orbitals. Elements have an electronic configuration that can be shown in s, p or d notation, for example, sodium is 1s2,2s2 ,2p6 ,3s1 . S orbitals are spherical and hold 2 electrons in opposite spins P orbitals are lobe shaped and hold 6 electrons in opposite spins D orbitals hold 10 electrons F orbitals hold 14 electrons A way to remember electronic structure Sophie, Simmonds, Penguin, Skips, Past, Sophies, Duck, Pedro

Types of Bonds Ionic bonding takes place when positive ions and negative ions are attracted in a giant ionic structure.(takes place between a non-metal and a metal ion, these ions have FULL charges) Covalent bonding is the sharing of electron pair(s) between nuclei of atoms (takes place between non-metals and non-metals) A polar covalent bond occurs when electrons are not shared equally between the atoms, as one has a greater electronegativity than the other. A dative covalent bond is one formed in which both electrons are donated from the same atom. A metallic bond is formed when positive metal cations are attracted to negatively charged delocalised electrons. Delocalized electrons are electrons that are shared by TWO or more atoms. Hydrogen bonding is the electromagnetic attractive interaction of a hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom, such as nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine. Van der Waals forces are Weak electrostatic attractive forces between uncharged molecules, arising from the interaction of permanent dipoles Ionisation energy Ionisation energy is the amount of energy needed to remove one electron from each atom, in a mole of atoms, in the gas phase. There are 3 factors that affect the amount of ionisation energy needed to remove an electron. Electron shielding, atomic radii and the nuclear charge of the atom. Electron shielding is where electrons in the inner energy levels shield the positive charge of the nucleus, so other electrons are not as strongly attracted to the nucleus. So, the larger the atomic radii= more electron shielding= less ionization energy needed to remove each electron. Ionisation energies are also shown in equations, which you must be able to do!

Electronegativity Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a covalent bond to attract a bonded pair of electrons towards itself. Nitrogen, Oxygen and Fluorine are the most electronegative elements in the periodic table. Element Approx. electronegativity Nitrogen 3 Oxygen 3.5 Fluorine 4 Electronegativity is measured using the Pauling scale (which was invented by the chemist Linus Pauling in 1932)

Dipoles and Polar/non-polar molecules A permanent dipole is a small charge difference across a bond that is formed from a difference in electronegativities of the bonded atoms. A non-polar molecule a symmetrical molecule, without an overall dipole. A polar molecule is - a non-symmetrical molecule, with an overall dipole. An overall dipole is formed when one of the atoms in the bond, has a higher electronegativity (as it has the most electrons, as shown in the picture) The atom with a high electronegativity is shown by a delta negative symbol. Molecular Shapes The shape of a molecule is determined by the repulsion between bonded electrons and non-bonded electrons (lone pairs). Lone electron pairs repel more than bonded pairs of electrons and give rise to distorted shapes. Each lone pair repels by 2.5 degrees By deducing the number of bonded electron pairs and lone pairs of electrons, the shape of a molecule may be predicted. BF3 is trigonal planar; CH4 and NH4+ are tetrahedral; SF6 is octahedral; H2O is non-linear (V-shaped/bent); CO2 is linear and ammonia, NH3 as pyramidal.

These are the molecular shapes of molecules -> Intermolecular Forces An intermolecular force exists between molecules and may include hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole or van der Waals forces. Dont confuse intermolecular forces for intramolecular forces, intramolecular forces occur inside of molecules. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a covalent bond to attract a bonded pair of electrons towards itself. Hydrogen bonding arises in molecules in which a hydrogen atom is bonded to an N, O or F atom. Water molecules, and other substances consisting of hydrogen bonding, have anomalous properties as a result. Anomalous properties of water include ice floating on water, water having a high boiling point and the high surface tension that water has. These are all due to hydrogen bonds.

Bonding and Physical Properties Metals consist of a close-packed arrangement of positive ions, through which delocalized electrons move. Metals are very good electrical conductors as a result of having mobile electrons. Giant structures have high melting and boiling points due to strong chemical bonds acting throughout the structure. Giant ionic structures conduct electricity when molten, and when dissolved in water due to mobile ions, not electrons.

Periodicity When the elements are arranged in order of their atomic number, there is a regular repetition of physical and chemical properties. Elements in the same group have similar chemical and physical properties. In the Periodic Table, ionization energies increase moving across a period from left to right, and decrease moving down a group. Electron structures, atomic radii, melting points and boiling points all show periodicity.

Group 2 Elements the Alkaline Earth Metals The alkaline earth metals belong to the S block on the periodic table Group 2s first ionisation energies decreases down the group These elements all react with water to form a solution of the hydroxide and hydrogen gas. These elements react with oxygen to form an oxide. Reactivity increases on descending the group because the outer two electrons are further from the nucleus and are less shielded. Metal hydroxides are weak alkalis and typically have a pH between 8 and 11 Group 2 carbonates decompose with greater difficulty as the group is descended, to form the metal oxide and carbon dioxide gas. As you move down group 2 the elements hydroxides solubility and alkalinity increases. Group 2 elements become more reactive DOWN the group Group 2 carbonates decompose at higher temperatures down the group The hydroxides of group 2 elements become more soluble in water, and the resulting solutions become more alkaline as you move down the group. Group 2 elements have high melting and boiling points They are light metals with low densities They form colourless compounds and are oxidised in reactions

Group 2 reactions with oxygen Group 2 elements react vigorously with oxygen, this is a redox reaction. The product is an ionic oxide with the general formula being MO where the M stands for the group 2 element The group 2 element is oxidised in this process and looses 2 electrons Oxygen is reduced in this process and gains the 2 electrons Group 2 reactions with water Group 2 elements react with water to form hydroxides with the general formula M(OH)2. Hydrogen gas is also produced.

During the reaction of a group 2 element with water, only 1 of the Hydrogen atoms is reduced, the other hydrogen atoms oxidation number remains the same, as +1. As you move down group 2 the metals react more vigorously with

Uses of group 2 hydroxides Calcium hydroxide is used by farmers and gardeners as lime to neutralise acidic soil. Magnesium hydroxide is used as milk of magnesia to relieve indigestion. It works by neutralising any excess stomach acid. Group 7 Elements the Halogens All halogens exist as diatomic molecules in which van der Waals intermolecular forces act between the molecules. Halogens dissolve in organic solvents, like hexane, to form characteristic colours, for example, iodine forms a purple solution. Halogen atoms gain one electron to form halide ions, X-, and this ability becomes easier on moving up the group. Halogen atoms become larger on descending the group, so a gained electron is only weakly attracted due to greater shielding. Halides act as oxidising agents, as they accept/gain an electron from another element, so the halide is reduced and the other element is oxidised. Halides belong to the P block on the periodic table as they fill the P subshell. The boiling points of the halogens increase down the group as the number of electrons increases so there are more van der Waals forces to break, which takes energy in the form of heat. Fluorine is the most reactive element in group 7 as it has fewer shells, electrons, electron shielding and smaller nuclear radii so there is more attraction to the outer electrons, making it easier to form an ion. Astatine is the least reactive element in group7 as it has more shells, electrons, electron shielding and larger nuclear radii so there is less attraction to the outer electrons making it harder to form ions. More reactive halides will displace less reactive halides in reactions.

Redox reactions of the halogens Redox reactions of the halogens show that halogens become less able to form halide ions as you move down the group, this is done by reacting aqueous solutions of halide ions Cl- (aq), Br- (aq) and I(aq) with aqueous solutions of the halogens Cl2 (aq) , Br2 (aq) and I2 (aq) Each halogen is mixed with an aqueous solution of the different halides. A more reactive halogen will oxidise and displace a halide of a less reactive halogen. This is a displacement reaction As halogens form solutions with distinct colours it is easy to see if a displacement reaction has taken place.

Only more reactive halogens displace less reactive halogens. As chlorine is higher up group 7, so its more reactive, it will displace and oxidise both Br- and I- ions Bromine only oxidises and displaces Iodine, and iodine does not oxidise either Cl- or Br- ions.

Reactions of Chlorine and Halide Ions Disproportionation is where the same element is oxidised and reduced in a reaction. For example, this happens when chlorine is added to water Cl2 + H2o -> HCl + HClO. Here Cl is oxidised and reduced. Chlorine disproportionates in water to form hydrochloric acid and chloric(I) acid, the latter being an oxidising agent. Chlorine also disproportionates in cold, aqueous sodium hydroxide to form sodium chloride, sodium chlorate(I) and water. Cl2(aq) +2NaOH(aq) ->NaCl(aq) + NaClO(aq) +H2O (l) Chlorine is used to kill bacteria in water supplies, but is also toxic to humans at higher doses. Halide ions are detected with silver(I) nitrate solution and the subsequent reaction with ammonia solution. Halide ions have distinct precipitate colours when mixed with cyclohexane.
