Reactions in aqueous solutions are an integral part of our daily lives On a large scale, in oceans, rivers, and rain, they shape our physical world Many reactions that produce the substances that are part of modern life—from paint pigments to drugs—are run in water, and many analytical procedures rely on reactions in water to determine the content of aqueous solutions that we drink, swim in, and use in countless consumer products like car batteries and shampoos On a small scale, reactions in the water within the cells of our bodies and in all living organisms make the chemical processes that are essential to life possible On Earth, there may be water without life, but there is no life without water SAMPLE EXERCISE 4.22 Integrating Concepts: Shelf-Stability of Drugs Commercial pharmaceutical agents undergo extensive analysis to establish how long they may be stored without degradation and loss of potency A candidate drug has the following percent composition from combustion analysis: C, 62.50%; H, 4.20% The drug is a diprotic acid A standard tablet containing 325 mg of the drug is dissolved in 100.00 mL of water and titrated to the 194 c h a p t e r Reactions in Solution equivalence point with 16.45 mL of 0.2056 M NaOH(aq) After storage at 50°C under high humidity for one month, a second tablet, when dissolved in 50.00 mL of water, requires 10.10 mL of 0.1755 M NaOH(aq) to be completely neutralized a What is the empirical formula of the drug? b What is its molar mass? c What is its molecular formula? d What is the percent of active drug substance remaining in the tablet after storage? Collect and Organize We are given the percent composition of the drug and information from titration experiments From these data we can find the empirical formula, the molar mass, and the amount of active drug in the stored tablet Analyze The percent composition data from the combustion analysis not add to 100% We may assume that the amount missing is due to oxygen in the molecule The drug is a diprotic acid, so neutralizing mole of the drug requires moles of NaOH The titration of the drug requires about 20 mL of 0.2 M NaOH, which is about 0.004 mol OH2 That means the pure sample is about 0.002 moles of the drug; if about 0.3 grams contains 0.002 moles, the drug must have a molar mass of about 150 g If any of the drug decomposes upon storage, we should have less than 325 mg in the second sample Solve a The percent oxygen in the drug molecule is 100.00% (62.50% 4.20%) 33.30% Calculating the moles of C, H, and O in exactly 100 g of the drug: 62.50 g C 5.20 mol C 12.01 g/mol 4.20 g H 4.17 mol H 1.008 g/mol 33.30 g O 2.08 mol O 16.00 g/mol Reducing these quantities to ratios of small whole numbers: 5.20 mol C 2.50 mol C 2.08 4.17 mol H 2.00 mol H 2.08 2.08 mol O 1.00 mol O 2.08 requires multiplying by 2, which gives us mol C:4 mol H:2 mol O and the empirical formula: C5H4O2 b To find the molar mass of the drug from the titration data, we first find the number of moles of drug in the sample: mol drug 0.2056 mol NaOH L NaOH mol NaOH 5 0.001691 mol drug 0.01645 L NaOH If 0.325 g of drug is 0.001691 mol of drug, then the mass of mole is 0.325 g 192.2 g/mol } drug 0.001691 mol c The mass of mole of empirical formula units (C5H4O2) is (5 12.01 g/mol) (4 1.008 g/mol) (2 16.00 g/mol) 5 96.08 g/mol The number of moles of formula units per mole of molecules is g mol 52 g 96.08 mol 192.16 So the molecular formula of the drug is (C5H4O2)2 C10H8O4 d The stored tablet contains mol drug 0.1755 mol NaOH L NaOH mol NaOH 5 0.0008863 mol drug 8.863 1024 mol 0.01010 L NaOH Comparing this value with the original amount: 8.863 1024 mol 100% 52.41% 1.691 1023 mol of the active drug is left in the tablet Think About It The molar mass we calculated is close to our estimated value, so it seems reasonable If only half the active agent is present in the tablet after storage under these conditions, the manufacturer may have to reformulate the drug or package it differently to protect it from its surroundings Summary LO1 The concentration of solute in a solution can be expressed many different ways: as mass of solute per mass of solution (such as grams of solute per kilogram of solution), parts per million (1 ppm μg solute/g solution mg solute/kg solution), or parts per billion (1 ppb μg solute/kg solution) Solute concentration can also be expressed as mass of solute per volume of solvent and as moles of solute per liter of solution, or molarity (M) One set of units can be converted into another by using dimensional analysis (Sections 4.1 and 4.2) Problem-Solving Summary 195 LO2 Two common techniques to make solutions of desired concentration are determining the mass of solute to be dissolved in an appropriate amount of solvent to produce the quantity of solution needed and the dilution of a stock solution (Sections 4.2 and 4.3) proton donors and Brønsted–Lowry bases are proton acceptors; they may also be strong or weak electrolytes (Sections 4.4 and 4.5) LO6 Solubility rules define substances that dissolve readily in water and those that have very limited solubility We can use them to determine combinations of ions in solution that result in precipitate formation, and we can quantify the amount of precipitate formed and the concentration of ions left in solution after reaction We can remove ions from solution by precipitation and by ion exchange (Sections 4.7 and 4.8) LO3 We can determine the concentration of a solution by spectrophotometry and the application of Beer’s law, which relates the absorbance of a solution (A) to concentration (c), path length (b) and molar absorptivity (e) by the equation A εbc We can also use titrations based on acid–base neutralizations or precipitation reactions (Sections 4.3, 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7) LO4 There are three different ways to write chemical equations Molecular equations may be the easiest to balance; overall ionic equations show all the species present in solution; net ionic equations eliminate spectator ions and show only the species that are involved in the reaction (Sections 4.5, 4.6, and 4.7) LO5 Measuring the conductivity of a solution enables us to identify solutes as strong electrolytes, weak electrolytes, or nonelectrolytes In aqueous solution, Brønsted–Lowry acids are LO7 In a redox reaction, substances either gain electrons (and thereby undergo reduction) or lose electrons (undergo oxidation) A reaction is a redox reaction if the oxidation numbers (O.N.), or oxidation states, of the atoms in the reactants change during the reaction An activity series allows us to predict whether a particular metal ion will oxidize a different metal In balancing equations for redox reactions, we must consider the number of electrons transferred as well as the number of atoms involved (Section 4.9) Particul ate Preview Wr ap-Up The balanced equation when the contents of the two beakers are mixed is NH4Cl(aq) AgNO3(aq) S NH4NO3(aq) AgCl(s) Therefore ammonium nitrate remains as dissociated ions dissolved in water, while silver chloride precipitates as a solid AgNO3(aq) is the limiting reagent, and all the nitrate ions (0.01 moles) remain in solution because they are spectator ions The starting materials are drawn showing four cations and four anions for each reactant, so they form the products drawn here Problem-Solving Summary Type of Problem Concepts and Equations Comparing concentrations in aqueous solutions Use conversion factors to express concentrations in different units Calculating molarity from solute mass and solution volume or from solute mass, solution mass, and density Convert the solute mass into grams and then into moles Convert the solution mass into volume by dividing by the density of the solvent Divide moles of solute by liters of solution: Molarity moles of solute liter of solution Sample Exercises 4.1 4.2, 4.3 196 c h a p t e r Reactions in Solution Type of Problem Calculating the mass of solute or volume of stock solution to prepare a solution Concepts and Equations a Multiply the known concentration (in mol/L) by the target volume (in L) to obtain the moles of solute needed Then multiply moles of solute by solute molar mass, }, to get mass of solute needed: Sample Exercises 4.4, 4.5 Mass of solute (g) (V M) } (4.2) b Given three of the four variables, use Vinitial Minitial Vdiluted Mdiluted (4.3) to solve for the fourth Applying Beer’s law Substitute for A, b, and c in Equation 4.4 and solve for ε for a solution of known concentration: ε5 4.6 A bc Use A, b, and ε to find c for a solution of unknown concentration: c5 A εb 4.7, 4.11 Writing neutralization reaction equations Balance the molecular equation by balancing the moles of H1 ions donated by the acid and accepted by the base Next, create the overall ionic equation by writing strong electrolytes in their ionic form Finally, create the net ionic equation by eliminating spectator ions from the overall ionic equation Comparing electrolytes, acids, and bases Use the definitions of a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, a nonelectrolyte, an acid, and a base to classify compounds into one or more categories Calculating molarity from titration data Use the volume and concentration of titrant used to neutralize a sample along with a balanced chemical equation to calculate the number of moles in a sample of known volume and determine its molarity Predicting precipitation reactions Write all the ions present in the solutions being mixed If any cation/anion pair forms an insoluble compound, that compound will precipitate 4.12 Calculating the mass of a precipitate Find the limiting reactant Use the stoichiometry of the net ionic equation to calculate the moles of precipitate, and then convert moles into mass of precipitate by using the precipitate’s molar mass 4.13, 4.15 Calculating a solute concentration from a precipitate mass Convert precipitate mass into moles by dividing by its molar mass Convert moles of precipitate into moles of solute Calculate molarity of the solute in the sample by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of sample in liters 4.14 Determining oxidation numbers (O.N.) O.N of a monatomic ion is equal to the ion’s charge O.N of a pure element is To assign O.N in a molecule containing more than one type of atom, assign O.N 11 to H, 22 to O, and then calculate O.N for any remaining atoms such that all the O.N sum to For polyatomic ions, the sum of the O.N values must equal the charge on the ion 4.16 Identifying oxidizing and reducing agents and number of electrons transferred The oxidizing agent contains an atom whose O.N decreases during the reaction; the reducing agent contains an atom whose O.N increases; the change in O.N determines the number of electrons transferred 4.17 Balancing redox reactions with half-reactions Multiply one or both half-reactions by the appropriate coefficient(s) to balance the loss and gain of electrons Combine the two half-reactions and simplify 4.18 Using the activity series Any metal in Table 4.6 will be oxidized by a cation listed below it in the activity series 4.19 Balancing redox reactions that involve acidic or basic conditions Follow the steps described on pp 190–193 4.8 4.9, 4.10 4.20, 4.21 Visual Problems 197 Visual Problems (Answers to boldface end-of-chapter questions and problems are in the back of the book.) 4.1 In Figure P4.1, which shows a solution containing three binary acids, one of the three is a weak acid and the other two are strong acids Which color sphere represents the anion of the dissociated weak acid? – + + – – – + – – – + + + – + – – – + + – + + – + + FIGURE P4.1 4.2 Solutions of sodium chloride and silver iodide are mixed together and vigorously shaken Which colored spheres in Figure P4.2 represent the following ions?
