NaCl + H2O ----> Na+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) is an example of ionization.T or F |
answer
False. Ionization is when an atom or molecule gains either a positive or negative charge. (The example shown is "dissociation.") |
question
"Redox" means the same thing as "oxidation-reduction." T or F |
answer
True. |
question
Spectator ions are the soluble components of a precipitation reaction. T or F |
answer
True. |
question
Ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3.T or F |
answer
True. |
question
MnOH2 means the same thing as Mn(OH)2.T or F |
answer
False. In the second compound, the parentheses indicate that the polyatomic ion hydroxide is receiving Mn's 2 positive charges. |
question
Sometimes an oxidation reaction will occur without a reduction reaction. T or F |
answer
False. |
question
The formation of gas bubbles is ALWAYS indicative of a chemical reaction. T or F |
answer
False. That can also be evidence of a physical change. |
question
A combustion reaction must include O2.T or F |
answer
True. |
question
The complete ionic equation does not include the spectator ions. T or F |
answer
False. It's the NET IONIC EQUATION that does not include the spectator ions. |
question
Potassium hydroxide is an example of a salt. T or F |
answer
True. Pretty much anything combining with (OH)- will be a salt. |
question
H3PO4 is hydrophosphoric acid.T or F |
answer
False. It's just phosphoric acid. |
question
KNO3 dissolved in H2O produces K+ (aq) + N3- (aq) + 3O2- (aq) ions. T or F |
answer
False. NO3- is an ion that stays bonded. |
question
Products of some reactions can be predicted by knowing their solubilities. T or F |
answer
True. |
question
Sodium bromide is an example of a weak electrolyte. T or F |
answer
False. |
question
Strong electrolytes that produce H+ are strong acids.T or F |
answer
True. |
question
Na0 ---> Na+ + 1e- is an example of an oxidation reaction.T or F |
answer
True. |
question
The correct formula for barium sulfate is BaSO4.T or F |
answer
True. |
question
Which of the following is NOT one of the four driving forces for a chemical reaction? a. gas formation b. transfer of electrons c. solid formation d. water formation e. heat or flame |
answer
e. heat or flame |
question
Elemental Copper can be oxidized with elemental sulfur, the reduction reaction is written:a. Cu --> Cu+ + 1 e-b. Cu --> Cu+ - 1 e-c. Cu + 1 e- --> Cu+ d. S --> S2- + 2e-e. S + 2e- --> S2- |
answer
e. S + 2e- ---> S2- |
question
The net ionic equation for an acid-base reaction is: |
answer
H+ + OH- ---> H2O |
question
The four visible clues that a chemical reaction has occurred are: |
answer
1. color change 2. precipitate formation 3. gas formation 4. heat or flame |
question
The 4 driving forces for all chemical reactions are: |
answer
1. Solid formation 2. Water formation 3. Electron transfer 4. Gas formation |
question
Which ion (on the left side of the equation) is getting reduced and which on is getting oxidized in the following redox reaction?FeCl2(aq) + CuCl2(aq) ---> FeCl3(aq) + CuCl(aq) |
answer
Fe lost an electron, so it's getting oxidized. Cu gained an electron, so it's getting reduced. |
question
What is the oxidation reaction (written-out) for:3Na + Co(NO3)3 ---> 3NaNO3 + Co0 |
answer
Na0 ---> Na1+ + 1e- |
