They proposed a two parameter equation which predicts the formation of a very large number of adducts quite accurately. -∆HAB=EA.EB + CA.CB Here, ∆HAB is the enthalpy of the reaction A+B →AB in the gas phase or in an inert solvent. E and C are parameters calculated from experimental data. E is a measure of the capacity for electrostatic(ionic) interactions and C is a measure of the tendency to form covalent bonds. The subscripts refer to values assigned to the acid A and Base B.

As we already know, oxygen is the most abun- dant element in the Earth crust: it constitutes about 49% of Earth lithosphere (by mass), and 20% of atmosphere (by volume).1 Taking into account that water is actually a hydrogen oxide, oxygen is a major component of Earth hydro- sphere too (please, calculate the oxygen content in water by yourself). Oxygen exists in a chemi- cally bound form everywhere except in the Earth atmosphere, and various oxides are among the most abundant forms of chemically bound oxy- gen on the Earth. Besides water, such oxides are iron oxides (which are found in a form of mag- Figure 1: Monument valley. Arizona and netite, hematite, goethite, limonite, etc, see Fig. Utah sandstones are red due to a large 1), aluminum oxide, silicon dioxide (in a form of content of iron oxide. quartz, opal etc). 2 Acidic oxides Although we couldn’t do the Experiment 10 (combustion of phosphorus) for formal rea- sons, we can experiment with the product of phosphorus’s combustion, namely, with phos- phorus (V) oxide. Let’s look at this compound closer. Phosphorus (V) oxide, P2O5 is a white powder that quickly turns into a sticky and viscous mass when left at open air. To understand why does it happen, let’s do an experiment. 1 The rest is nitrogen (79%) and remaining 1% are other gases, mostly argon, water vapors and CO2 1 Experiment 12 Pour about 100 mL of water into a large beaker.

In this lesson we shall deal with the chemistry of the elements of Groups 16, 17 and 18. Objectives After reading this lesson you will be able to: classify oxides into acidic, basic and amphoteric types; describe the manufacture of sulphuric acid; recall the preparation, properties and uses of ozone; recall the characteristics of hydrogen halides (HF, HCl); list the oxides and oxoacids of chlorine; compare the acidic behaviour of oxoacids of chlorine; write the general molecular formulae of interhalogen compounds; discuss the structures of interhalogen compounds; list a few chloro fluoro carbons and explain their uses and their effect on environment; explain the unreactive nature of noble gases; recall the preparation of xenon fluorides and oxides, and illustrate the structures of XeF2, XeF4, XeF6, XeO3 and XeO4. 22.1 Oxygen and Sulphur Oxygen and sulphur are the first two members of the 16th group of the periodic table. In this section you will learn about some compounds of oxygen and sulphur including environmentally important ozone and industrially important sulphuric acid. 62 p-Block Elements and Their Compounds - II MODULE - 6 22.1.1. Classification of Oxides Chemistry of Elements The binary compounds of oxygen with other elements (metals or non-metals) are called oxides. An understanding of the nature of an oxide provides a clue to the nature of the element which forms the oxide. Depending upon the acid-base behaviour of the oxides, they can be classified into the following categories.

For Na reacting with water is significantly more Na2O, MgO, Al2O3 = metal oxide that have IONIC bonding and 1 1 1 example, aluminium oxide is an amphoteric vigorous than Mg reaction with water—sodium therefore GIANT IONIC LATTICES. Aluminium oxide has ionic oxide. It forms salts both with acids and with produces a faster rate of effervescence but Mg bonding with some covalent character. The many strong alkalis produces very few bubbles, Na melts into a ball bonds between oppositely charged ions means the mpt’s are Acid A substance that donates protons in a reaction (releases much more heat) whereas Mg remains high for these oxides. 2 the same. The pH of the NaOH solution formed is 3 Base A substance that accepts protons in a reaction 12-14 whereas for Mg produces a mildly alkaline 2 Why has MgO got a higher mpt than Na2O? Mg forms a 2+ solution of pH 9-10. ion whereas Na forms a 1+ ion so the 2+ ion attracts the oxide 4 Strong acid An acid that dissociates fully in aqueous Explanations for the difference in reactions: one ion more than the 1+ ion meaning that the ionic bonding is solution 2 stronger electron needs to be lost from sodium whereas 2 5 Weak acid An acid that does not dissociate fully in water electrons need to be lost from Mg to ionise.
