Lecture #9, Wednesday, October 14th

Today I introduced solution stoichiometry by looking at Experiment #4: Developing an equation. We used the solubility rules to predict which ions will form a precipitate and based on experimental data we can conclude the proper ratio of ions that will form a solid.

We then talked about electrolytes and you should be able to identify if a compound is a strong, weak, or nonelectrolyte.

You should also be able to use the solubility rules to determine if a precipitate will form and you should also be able to predict the products in a metathesis reaction and write out the net ionic equation.

We then discussed acids and bases and you will need to be able to determine if a compound is an acid or a base and then know if the acid or base is strong or weak.

On Friday we will discuss acid-base reactions, discuss oxidation-reduction reactions and begin on solution stoichiometry calculations.
