4.9 State whether each of the following substances is likely to be very soluble in water. Explain. (a) Lithium nitrate (b) Glycine, H2NCH2COOH (c) Pentane (d) Ethylene glycol, HOCH2CH2OH

SOLUBLE IONIC COMPOUNDS 1. All common compounds of Group 1A(1) ions (Li+, Na+, K+, etc.) and ammonium ion (NH4+) are soluble. 2. All common nitrates (NO3), acetates (CH3COO or C2H3O2), and most perchlorates (ClO4) are soluble. 3. All common chlorides (Cl-), bromides (Br-), and iodides (I-) are soluble, except those of Ag+, Pb2+ , Cu+, and Hg2+ 4 . All common fluorides (F-) are soluble, except those of Pb2+ and Group 2A(2). 5. All common sulfates (SO42-) are soluble, except those of Ca2+ , Sr2+ , Ba2+ , Ag+ , and Pb2+ .

INSOLUBLE IONIC COMPOUNDS 1. All common metal hydroxides are insoluble, except those of Group 1A(1) and the larger members of Group 2A(2) (beginning with Ca2+). 2. All common carbonates (CO32- ) and phosphates (PO43-) are insoluble, except those of Group 1A(1) and NH4+ 3. All common sulfides are insoluble except those of Group1A(1), Group 2A(2), and NH4+

a) Lithium nitrate, an ionic compound, would be expected to be soluble in water, and the solubility rules confirm this. b) Glycine (H2NCH2COOH) is a covalent compound, but it contains polar N–H and O–H bonds. This would make the molecule interact well with polar water molecules, and make it likely that it would be soluble. c) Pentane (C5H12) has no bonds of significant polarity, so it would not be expected to be soluble in the polar solvent water. d) Ethylene glycol (HOCH2CH2OH) molecules contain polar O–H bonds, similar to water, so it would be expected to be soluble.

4.11 State whether an aqueous solution of each of the following substances conducts an electric current. Explain your reasoning. (a) Potassium sulfate (b) Sucrose, C12H22O11

Yes; K2SO4 is an ionic compound that is soluble in water, producing K+ and SO42– ions. No; sucrose is neither a salt, an acid, nor a base, so it would be a nonelectrolyte (even though it’s soluble in water).

4.13 How many total moles of ions are released when each of the following samples dissolves completely in water? (a) 0.734 mol of Na2HPO4 (b) 3.86 g of CuSO4⦁5H2O (c) 8.66x1020 formula units of NiCl2

4.15 How many moles and numbers of ions of each type are present in the following aqueous solutions? (a) 88 mL of 1.75 M magnesium chloride (b) 321 mL of a solution containing 0.22 g aluminum sulfate/L (c) 1.65 L of a solution containing 8.83 1021 formula units of cesium nitrate per liter

4.17 How many moles of H+ ions are present in the following aqueous solutions? (a) 1.4 mL of 0.75 M hydrobromic acid (b) 2.47 mL of 1.98 M hydriodic acid (c) 395 mL of 0.270 M nitric acid

The acids in this problem are all strong acids, so you can assume that all acid molecules dissociate completely to yield H+ ions and associated anions. One mole of HBr, HI, and HNO3 each produce one mole of H+ upon dissociation, so moles H+ = moles acid. Molarity is expressed as moles/L instead of as M. a) Moles H+ = mol HBr = (1.4 mL) (10–3 L/1mL) (0.75 mol/L) = 1.05 x 10–3 = 1.0 x 10–3 mol H+ b) Moles H+ = mol HI = (2.47 mL) (10–3L/1 mL) (1.98 mol/L) = 4.8906 x 10–3 = 4.89 x 10–3 mol H+ c) Moles H+ = mol HNO3 = (395 mL) (10–3 L/1 mL) (0.270 mol/L) = 0.10665 = 0.107 mol H+

4.19 Water “softeners” remove metal ions such as Ca2+ and Fe3+ by replacing them with enough Na+ ions to maintain the same number of positive charges in the solution. If 1.0 103 L of “hard” water is 0.015 M Ca2 and 0.0010 M Fe3 , how many moles of Na+ are needed to replace these ions?

The moles of the calcium ions and the iron ions are needed The moles of the calcium ions and the iron ions are needed. The moles of each of the ions to be replaced must be multiplied by the charge to get the total moles of charge. Since sodium has a +1 charge the total moles of charge equals the moles of sodium ions.

Plan: Use Table 4. 1 to predict the products of this reaction Plan: Use Table 4.1 to predict the products of this reaction. Ions not involved in the precipitate are spectator ions and are not included in the net ionic equation. Solution: Assuming that the left beaker is AgNO3 (because it has gray Ag+ ion) and the right must be NaCl, then the NO3– is blue, the Na+ is brown, and the Cl– is green. (Cl– must be green since it is present with Ag+ in the precipitate in the beaker on the right.)
