Слайд 4 In the world of chemistry, an electrolyte is a substance
having the free ions so that the substance is electrical
conductor. We can say that any substance, which furnishes ions in the solution, is called the electrolyte.
Due to the presence of free ions some of the solutions can pass electricity through them. As we can say that the pure distilled water is not an electrolyte but if we add some table salt, it becomes an electrolyte and the electric current pass through it.
The electrolyte is an ionic solution but the electrolytes can also be in molten and in the solid state.
Слайд 5Pure water does not conduct an electric current

Слайд 7 Electric current is a movement or flow of electrically charged
particles (electrons and ions), typically measured in:
Charged particles capable of
conducting electrical current are called electrical conductors:
Metals are conductors of the first type with an electronic conductivity
Electrolytes are conductors of the second type with an ionic conductivity
Слайд 8Ions are atoms (or groups of atoms) that carry electrical
charge.
Positively (+) charged ions are called cations, whereas negatively
(–) charged ions are called anions.

Слайд 9Electrolytes are substances that dissociate into ions when dissolved in
water and conduct electricity
Non-electrolytes are substances that do not form
ions and do not conduct electricity when placed in water
Слайд 10Electrical Conductivity of Ionic Solutions
Слайд 11The more the electrolyte dissociates, the more ions it produces.
Слайд 12TYPES OF ELECTROLYTES
A weak electrolyte dissociates partially.
Weak electrolyte solutions are
poor conductors.
Different weak electrolytes dissociate to different extents.
Weak electrolytes include:
Weak
acids and weak bases (NH4OH)
A few insoluble ionic compounds
A water H2O
A strong electrolyte dissociates completely.
A strong electrolyte is present in solution almost exclusively as ions.
Strong electrolyte solutions are good conductors.
Strong electrolytes include:
Strong acids (HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, H2SO4, HClO4)
Strong bases (IA and IIA metals hydroxides)
Most water-soluble ionic compounds (salts)
Слайд 13The Water Molecule is Polar
dipol
Слайд 14Water is “bent” or V-shaped.
The O – H bonds are
covalent.
Water is a polar molecule.
Hydration occurs when salts dissolve in
water.

Слайд 18 In order to explain the properties of electrolytic solutions, Arrhenius
put forth, in 1884, a comprehensive theory which is known
as theory of electrolytic dissociation or ionic theory.
ARRHENIUS THEORY OF ELECTROLYTIC DISSOCIATION
Svante Arrhenius,
Swedish chemist and
Nobel laureate,
1859-1927.
Слайд 19THE MAIN POINTS OF THE THEORY ARE:
An electrolyte, when dissolved
in water, breaks up into two types of charged particles.
These charged particles are called ions.
When an electric current is passed through the electrolytic solution, the positive ions (cations) move towards cathode and the negative ions (anions) move towards anode and get discharged, i.e., electrolysis occurs.
The process of splitting of the electrolytes molecules into ions under the influence of polar molecules of solvent is called ionization (dissociation):
cation
anion
Слайд 20The properties of electrolytes in solution are the properties of
ions present in solution. For example, acidic solution always contains
H+ ions while basic solution contains OH- ions and characteristic properties of solutions are those of H- ions and OH- ions respectively.
The ions act like molecules towards depressing the freezing point, elevating the boiling point, lowering the vapour pressure and establishing the osmotic pressure.
The conductively of the electrolytic solution depends on the nature and number of ions as the current is carried through solution by the movement of ions.
Слайд 21 An acid is a substance that increase H+ when dissolved
in water:
Some acids have more than one ionizable hydrogen
atom. They ionize in “steps”:
H2SO4 → H+ + HSO4–
HSO4– → H+ + SO42–
hydrogen sulfate ion
sulfate ion
Слайд 22Strong acids are strong electrolytes; completely ionized in water:
In
water: HCl(g) → H+(aq) + Cl–(aq)
Weak acids are weak electrolytes.
Some of the dissolved molecules ionize; the rest remain as molecules.
In water: CH3COOH(l) H+(aq) + CH3COO–(aq)
No HCl in solution, only H+ and Cl– ions.
Just a little H+ forms.
Reactions of Acid:
Strong and Weak Acids
Слайд 23 A base is a substance that increase OH- when dissolved
in water:
An ampholyte is a substance dissolving in water
to OH- and H+ ions:
Слайд 24Strong bases: Most are ionic hydroxides (Group IA and IIA,
though some IIA hydroxides aren’t very soluble).
Weak bases: Like
weak acids, they ionize partially. Ionization process is different.
Weak bases form OH– by accepting H+ from water …
NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH–
CH3NH2 + H2O CH3NH3+ + OH–
methylamine methylammonium ion
Strong and Weak Bases
Слайд 25Common Strong Acids
and Strong Bases
A pragmatic method of determining whether
an acid is weak … just learn the strong acids!
Слайд 26 Strength and properties of the electrolyte are described by the
following values:
the degree () of ionization
and the dissociation
constant (Kdiss) of the electrolyte.
Degree of ionization '' may be defined as a fraction of total number of molecules of an electrolyte which dissociate into ions:
Слайд 27Values of the degree of dissociation (ex)depends upon the following
factors
nature of solute
2. nature of solvent
3. concentration
4. temperature
Слайд 28When temperature is increased, degree of ionization increase too
When
concentration is increased, degree of ionization decrease
Слайд 29Dissociation is reversible process. Ions present in solution constantly re-unite
to form neutral molecules and, thus, there is a state
of dynamic equilibrium between the ionized and non-ionized molecules, i.e., AxBy x A+ + y B-
Applying the law of mass action to above equilibrium, we have constant K is known as ionization constant :
Слайд 30For strong electrolytes >0,3 (30%) and they having high value of
Kdiss
For weak electrolytes
having low constant value of Kdiss
Слайд 31OSTWALD'S DILUTION LAW
For strong electrolytes:
where K is dissociation constant and
C is molar concentration of the solution.
This law is based
on the fact that only a portion of the electrolyte is dissociated into ions at ordinary dilution and completely at infinite dilution. Strong electrolytes are almost completely ionized at all dilutions and /∞ does not give an accurate value of 'α'.
When the concentration of ions is very high, the presence of charges on the ions appreciably affects the equilibrium. Hence, law of mass action cannot be strictly applied in the case of strong electrolytes.
Слайд 32OSTWALD'S DILUTION LAW
For weak electrolytes (Kdiss=const and (1 – )
1):
Thus, degree of dissociation of a weak electrolyte is
proportional to the square root of dilution.
“For a weak electrolyte, the degree of ionisation is inversely proportional to the square root of molar concentration or directly proportional to the square root of volume containing one mole of the solute.” This is called Ostwald’s dilution law.
Слайд 33A chemical equation which shows dissociation of electrolyte and written
as dissociated ions of electrolyte is known as ionic equation.
Double
Replacement (Metathesis) Reactions involve swapping ions in solution:
AX + BY AY + BX
IONIC REACTIONS
Слайд 34 Metathesis reactions will lead to a change in solution if
one of three things occurs:
An insoluble solid is formed (When
a chemical reaction forms such a solute, the insoluble solute comes out of solution and is called a precipitate),
Weak acids are formed (H2SO3, CH3COOH),
An insoluble gas is formed (H2S, CO2, SO2, NH3),

IONIC REACTION
Слайд 36 Neutralization is the (usually complete) reaction of an acid with
a base. The products of this neutralization are water and
a salt.
Acid–Base Reactions:
Neutralization
Слайд 37In the reaction above, the HCl, NaOH, and NaCl all
are strong electrolytes and dissociate completely.
The actual reaction occurs between
ions.
Acid–Base Reactions:
Net Ionic Equations
HCl + NaOH H2O + NaCl
H+ + Cl– + Na+ + OH– H2O + Na+ + Cl–
H+ + OH– H2O
A net ionic equation shows the species actually involved in the reaction.
Na+ and Cl– are spectator ions.
Слайд 38There are limits to the amount of a solute that
will dissolve in a given amount of water.
If the maximum
concentration of solute is less than about 0.01 M, we refer to the solute as insoluble in water.
When a chemical reaction forms such a solute, the insoluble solute comes out of solution and is called a precipitate.
Reactions that Form Precipitates
Слайд 39Silver Iodide Precipitation
A solution containing silver ions and nitrate ions,
when added to …
… a solution containing potassium ions and
iodide ions, forms …
What is the net ionic equation for the reaction that has occurred here? (Hint: what species actually reacted?)
Слайд 40With these guidelines we can predict precipitation reactions.
When solutions of
sodium carbonate and iron (III) nitrate are mixed, a precipitate
will form.
When solutions of lead acetate and calcium chloride are mixed, a precipitate will form.
