Aqueous reactions

Reactions that take place in aqueous solutions

Three types of aqueous reactions

Precipitation, acid-base, and redox reactions

Why water is a polar molecule

Unequal electron density creates positive and negative poles

Dipole

A molecule with two poles (positive and negative)

Which part of water is δ\delta-

Oxygen side (higher electron density)

Which part of water is δ\delta+

Hydrogen side

Dissociation

Ionic compounds separate into smaller ions

Dissolution

Ionic crystals break up into ions in water

Hydration

Ions become surrounded by water molecules

Ionic vs molecular dissolution

Ionic form ions; most molecular compounds do not form ions
