The sim- plest molecules contain only one type of atom, such as when two atoms of oxygen combine (O2) or when two atoms of chlorine combine (Cl2). Molecules of com- pounds are made up of the atoms of at least two different elements; for example, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms form a molecule of the compound water (H2O). “H2O” is called the chemical formula of water. The formula is a shorthand way of writing what elements are present in a molecule of a com- pound, and how many atoms of each element are present in each molecule. Reading Chemical Formulas The following are examples of chemical formulas and what they indicate. Example 1 The chemical formula for calcium carbonate is CaCO3 According to the formula, what is the chemical makeup of the compound? First, the letter symbols given in the formula indicate the three elements that make up the calcium carbonate compound: Ca = calcium C = carbon O = oxygen Second, the subscripts (the small numbers at the lower right corners of the letter symbols) in the formula indicate how many atoms of each element are present in a single molecule of the compound. There is no number just to the right of the Ca or C symbols; this indicates that only one atom of each chemical formula element is present in the molecule. The subscript 3 to the right of the O sym- Using the chemical bolizing oxygen indicates that there are three oxygen atoms in each molecule. symbols for each element, a shorthand CaCO3 way of writing what elements are present in a molecule and how many 1 atom 3 atoms atoms of each element are present in each of the 1 atom molecules. 1 000200010272023365_ch01_p001-014.indd 1 5/2/16 9:05 AM 2 WSO Water Treatment Grade 2 Determining Percent by Weight of Elements in a Compound If 100 lb of sodium chloride (NaCl) were separated into the elements that make up the compound, there would be 39.3 lb of pure sodium (Na) and 60.7 lb of pure chlorine (Cl). We say that sodium chloride is 39.3 percent sodium by weight and that it is 60.7 percent chlorine by weight. The percent by weight of each element in a compound can be calculated using the compound’s chemical formula and atomic weights from the periodic table. The first step in calculating percent by weight of an element in a compound is to determine the molecular weight (sometimes called formula weight) of the compound. The molecular weight of a compound is defined as the sum of the atomic weights of all the atoms in the compound. For example, to determine the molecular weight of sodium chloride, first count how many atoms of each element a single molecule contains: Na Cl 1 atom 1 atom Next, find the atomic weight of each atom, using the periodic table: atomic weight of Na = 22.99 atomic weight of Cl = 35.45 Finally, multiply each atomic weight by the number of atoms of that element in the molecule, and total the weights: Number of Atomic Total Atoms Weight Weight sodium (Na) 1 × 22.99 = 22.99 chlorine (Cl) 1 × 35.45 = 35.45 molecular weight of NaCl = 58.44 Once the molecular weight of a compound is determined, the percent by weight of each element in the compound can be found with the following formula: weight of element in compound percent element by weight = × 100 molecular weight of compound percent by weight Using the formula, first calculate the percent by weight of sodium in the The proportion, compound: calculated as a weight of Na in compound percentage, of each percent Na by weight = × 100 element in a compound. molecular weight of compound 22.99 molecular weight = × 100 The sum of the atomic 58.44 weights of all the atoms = 0.393 × 100 in the compound. Also called formula weight. = 39.3% sodium by weight 000200010272023365_ch01_p001-014.indd 2 5/2/16 9:05 AM Basic Microbiology and Chemistry 3 Then, calculate percent by weight of chlorine in the compound: weight of Cl in compound percent Cl by weight = × 100 molecular weight of compound 35.45 = × 100 58.44 = 0.607 × 100 = 60.7% chlorine by weight To check the calculations, add the percentages. The total should be 100: 39.3% Na + 60.7% Cl 100.0% NaCl Chemical Equations A chemical equation is a shorthand way, through the use of chemical formulas, to write the reaction that takes place when certain chemicals are brought together. As shown in the following example, the left side of the equation indicates the reactants, or chemicals that will be brought together; the arrow indicates which direction the reaction occurs; and the right side of the equation indicates the prod- ucts, or results, of the chemical reaction. calcium calcium react to calcium plus plus water bicarbonate hydroxide form carbonate chemical equation A shorthand way, using Ca(HCO ) + Ca(OH) 2CaCO + 2H O chemical formulas, of 3 2 2 3 2 writing the reaction that takes place when Reactants Products chemicals are brought together.

  • Thermodynamics of Ion Exchange
    Chapter 1 Thermodynamics of Ion Exchange Ayben Kilislioğlu Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/53558 1. Introduction 1.1. Ion exchange equilibria During an ion exchange process, ions are essentially stepped from the solvent phase to the solid surface. As the binding of an ion takes place at the solid surface, the rotational and translational freedom of the solute are reduced. Therefore, the entropy change (ΔS) during ion exchange is negative. For ion exchange to be convenient, Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) must be negative, which in turn requires the enthalpy change to be negative because ΔG = ΔH - TΔS. Both enthalpic (ΔHo) and entropic (ΔSo) changes help decide the overall selectivity of the ion-exchange process [Marcus Y., SenGupta A. K. 2004]. Thermodynamics have great efficiency on the impulsion of ion exchange. It also sets the equilibrium distribution of ions between the solution and the solid. A discussion about the role of thermodynamics relevant to both of these phenomena was done by researchers [Araujo R., 2004]. As the basic rule of ion exchange, one type of a free mobile ion of a solution become fixed on the solid surface by releasing a different kind of an ion from the solid surface. It is a reversible process which means that there is no permanent change on the solid surface by the process. Ion exchange has many applications in different fields like enviromental, medical, technological,.. etc. To evaluate the properties and efficiency of the ion exchange one must determine the equilibrium conditions.

  • Energy and the Hydrogen Economy
    Energy and the Hydrogen Economy Ulf Bossel Fuel Cell Consultant Morgenacherstrasse 2F CH-5452 Oberrohrdorf / Switzerland +41-56-496-7292 and Baldur Eliasson ABB Switzerland Ltd. Corporate Research CH-5405 Baden-Dättwil / Switzerland Abstract Between production and use any commercial product is subject to the following processes: packaging, transportation, storage and transfer. The same is true for hydrogen in a “Hydrogen Economy”. Hydrogen has to be packaged by compression or liquefaction, it has to be transported by surface vehicles or pipelines, it has to be stored and transferred. Generated by electrolysis or chemistry, the fuel gas has to go through theses market procedures before it can be used by the customer, even if it is produced locally at filling stations. As there are no environmental or energetic advantages in producing hydrogen from natural gas or other hydrocarbons, we do not consider this option, although hydrogen can be chemically synthesized at relative low cost. In the past, hydrogen production and hydrogen use have been addressed by many, assuming that hydrogen gas is just another gaseous energy carrier and that it can be handled much like natural gas in today’s energy economy. With this study we present an analysis of the energy required to operate a pure hydrogen economy. High-grade electricity from renewable or nuclear sources is needed not only to generate hydrogen, but also for all other essential steps of a hydrogen economy. But because of the molecular structure of hydrogen, a hydrogen infrastructure is much more energy-intensive than a natural gas economy. In this study, the energy consumed by each stage is related to the energy content (higher heating value HHV) of the delivered hydrogen itself.

  • (I) Determination of the Equivalent Weight and Pka of an Organic Acid
    Experiment 4 (i) Determination of the Equivalent Weight and pKa of an Organic Acid Discussion This experiment is an example of a common research procedure. Chemists often use two or more analytical techniques to study the same system. These experiments can give complementary qualitative and quantitative information concerning an unknown substance. I. Titration of Acids and Bases in Aqueous Solutions The almost instantaneous reaction between acids and bases in aqueous solution produce changes in pH which one can monitor. Two techniques are useful for detecting the equivalence point: (1) colorimetry, using an acid-base color indicator - a dye which undergoes a sharp change in color in a region of pH covering the equivalence point and (2) potentiometry, using a potentiometer (pH meter) to record the sharp change at the equivalence point in the potential difference between an electrode (usually a glass electrode) and the solution whose pH is undergoing change as a result of the addition of acid or base. For example, in the case of the titration of a weak monoprotic acid HA using sodium hydroxide solution we may write: + - NaOH + HA → Na + A + H2O (4.1) Applying the law of mass action to the ionization equilibrium for the weak acid in water: + - HA + H2O H3O + A (4.2) we may write (in dilute solutions [H2O] is essentially constant) [H O+ ][A − ] 3 = K (4.3) [HA] a where Ka is the acid ionization constant (constant at any given temperature). This expression is valid for + - all aqueous solutions containing hydronium ions (H3O ), A ions, and the un-ionized molecules HA.

    Chapter 4 Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions 175 Chapter 4 Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions Figure 4.1 Many modern rocket fuels are solid mixtures of substances combined in carefully measured amounts and ignited to yield a thrust-generating chemical reaction. (credit: modification of work by NASA) Chapter Outline 4.1 Writing and Balancing Chemical Equations 4.2 Classifying Chemical Reactions 4.3 Reaction Stoichiometry 4.4 Reaction Yields 4.5 Quantitative Chemical Analysis Introduction Solid-fuel rockets are a central feature in the world’s space exploration programs, including the new Space Launch System being developed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to replace the retired Space Shuttle fleet (Figure 4.1). The engines of these rockets rely on carefully prepared solid mixtures of chemicals combined in precisely measured amounts. Igniting the mixture initiates a vigorous chemical reaction that rapidly generates large amounts of gaseous products. These gases are ejected from the rocket engine through its nozzle, providing the thrust needed to propel heavy payloads into space. Both the nature of this chemical reaction and the relationships between the amounts of the substances being consumed and produced by the reaction are critically important considerations that determine the success of the technology. This chapter will describe how to symbolize chemical reactions using chemical equations, how to classify some common chemical reactions by identifying patterns of reactivity, and how to determine the quantitative relations between the amounts of substances involved in chemical reactions—that is, the reaction stoichiometry. 176 Chapter 4 Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions 4.1 Writing and Balancing Chemical Equations By the end of this section, you will be able to: • Derive chemical equations from narrative descriptions of chemical reactions.
