Grade 9 chemistry, ions and writing chemical formulaeNellexo
This document provides information on writing chemical formulas for ionic compounds. It discusses how ions are formed by elements gaining or losing electrons to achieve stability like the nearest noble gas. The charge on simple ions relates to the number of electrons gained or lost. Polyatomic ions contain two or more combined atoms and usually have a negative charge except for ammonium. To write formulas for ionic compounds, the numbers of positive and negative ions must balance to give an electrically neutral compound. The names of ionic compounds consist of the cation name followed by the anion name changed to end in "-ide".
The document provides information on topics related to rusting and corrosion of iron for CXC exams, including:
- Rusting is the oxidation of iron in the presence of oxygen and water to form hydrated iron(III) oxide. Only iron and alloys containing iron rust.
- Methods for preventing rust include using protective coatings like paint and grease, attaching a more reactive sacrificial metal like zinc, and creating rust-resistant alloys like stainless steel.
- Recycling metals has economic, social, and environmental benefits like reducing costs and waste, conserving resources, and decreasing pollution from metal extraction. However, recycling also has expenses and implementation challenges.
Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. There are two main types of ions: cations, which are positively charged and form when metals lose electrons, and anions, which are negatively charged and form when nonmetals gain electrons. Cations have fewer electrons than protons, while anions have more electrons than protons. Examples given are sodium forming the Na+ cation by losing one electron, and oxygen forming the O2- anion by gaining two electrons.

The assignment is due on Sunday March 22, 2020 and is worth a total of 22 marks.
Electrolysis is the process of using electric current to drive nonspontaneous chemical reactions and cause the decomposition of chemical compounds. During electrolysis, electrical energy is used to break up compounds into simpler substances like elements. The document discusses electrolysis and how it relates to the dissociation of ions and reactions that occur at electrodes during the process.
This document provides information about oxidation and reduction reactions in electrochemical cells. It defines the anode as the electrode where oxidation occurs and electrons are lost, and the cathode as the electrode where reduction occurs and electrons are gained. It also notes that hydrogen, metals, and negative ions form at the cathode, while non-metals form at the anode.
The document outlines key concepts and objectives for students to understand about electrolysis. It discusses how molten ionic compounds conduct electricity but solid ionic compounds do not due to mobile ions in liquids. Students should be able to state the direction of ion and electron movement during electrolysis, name products and write electrode reactions. They should also be able to predict and describe electrolysis products and processes like electroplating, copper refining and aluminum extraction. Worksheets are provided to reinforce these concepts through exercises on specific electrolysis reactions.
The document summarizes various separation processes based on differences in properties of mixture components. It describes six common types of mixtures that can be separated:
1. Solids with different solubility separated via dissolving and filtering.
2. Liquids with different boiling points separated by simple or fractional distillation.
3. Immiscible liquids separated using a separation funnel that exploits differences in density.
4. Solids and liquids separated by filtration which exploits differences in particle size.
5. Substances separated by chromatography which exploits differences in solubility and attraction to an absorbing medium.
6. Solids where one can sublime separated by sublimation which exploits differences in sublimation temperatures.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Cxc oxides, acids, bases and salts
1. 1
Oxides, Acids, Bases and Salts
Oxides – When elements burn in air, they combine with oxygen to form oxides
1. (a) Acidic Oxides are oxides of non-metals which neutralise bases to form a salt and water only.
CO2 (g) + NaOH(aq) → Na2CO3 (aq) + H2O (l)
Acidic oxide + base → salt + water
e.g. CO2, SO2, SO3, NO2, SiO2, P2O3, P2O5
(b) Acid Anhydrides are acidic oxides which dissolve in water to form acidic
solutions.
CO2 (g) + H2O (l) → H2CO3 (aq) (carbonic acid)
SO3 (g) + H2O (l) →H2SO4 (aq) (sulphuric acid)
P2O5 (s) + 3H2O (l) → 2H3PO4 (aq) (phosphoric acid)
NB: Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a mixed acid anhydride because it dissolves in water to form
two acids. 2NO2(g) + H2O(ℓ) → HNO2(aq) + HNO3(aq)
(Nitrous acid) (Nitricacid)
2. Basic Oxides are oxides of metal which neutralise acids to form salt and water only.
MgO (s) + H2SO4 (aq) → MgSO4 (aq) + H2O (l)
Basic oxides + acid → salt + water
Most basic oxides are insoluble in water. The soluble basic oxides (oxides of group 1 and
group II metals) dissolve to form alkalis.
Very K2O (s) + H2O (l) → 2KOH(aq) (potassium hydroxide)
Soluble Na2O (s) + H2O (l) →2NaOH(aq) (sodium hydroxide)
Slightly soluble → CaO (s) + H2O (l) → Ca (OH) 2 (aq) (calcium hydroxide)
Sparingly Soluble → MgO(s) + H2O (l) → Mg (OH) 2 (aq) (magnesium hydroxide)
Alkaline oxides: basic oxides that dissolves in water to form an alkali- K2O, Na2O, CaO, MgO
3. Neutral Oxides are the few oxides of non-metals that neither neutralise acids nor bases
e.g. Carbon monoxide (CO), Nitric oxide (NO), Water (H2O)
4. Amphoteric Oxides are the few oxides of metals which neutralises both acids and bases.
e.g. Al2O3, ZnO, PbO
ZnO(s) + H2SO4 (aq) → ZnSO4 (aq) + H2O (l)
(Acid)
ZnO(s) + 2NaOH(aq) → Na2ZnO2 (aq) + H2O (l)
(Base) (Sodium zincate)
Acids
An acid is a compound which forms hydrogen ions (H+) as the only positively charged ions in aqueous
solution.
NB: . The acidic behaviour of acid is due to the presence of hydrogen ions. The acids will not show
its acidic behaviour in the absence of water, this is because acids do not dissociate to produce H+ (aq)
ions in the absence of water.
Acid in everyday life
Citric acid – citrus fruits Lactic acid – `sour` milk
Ethanoic acid – vinegar Tartaric acid – grapes, baking powder
Carbonic acid – aerated (soft) drinks Methanoic acid – ants `sting`
Mineral acids
Hydrochloric acid (HCl (aq)), Sulphuric acid (H2SO4 (aq)), Nitric acid (HNO3 (aq))

2. 2
Properties of acids
1. -have a sharp, sour taste
2. -turn damp blue litmus red
3. -neutralise bases to form a salt and water only
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H2O(ℓ)
Acid + base → salt + water
4. -liberate CO2 from carbonates (CO3
2-) and hydrogen carbonates (HCO3
-) with effervescence
[effervescence is the rapid bubbling of gas out of solution]
CaCO3 (s) + 2HCl (aq) → CaCl2 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
2NaHCO3 (s) + H2SO4 (aq) → Na2SO4 (aq) + 2CO2 (g) + 2H2O (l)
5. -The more reactive metals (Mg, Zn, and Fe) liberate hydrogen from dilute acids with
effervescence
Zn (s) + H2SO4 (aq) → ZnSO4 (aq) + H2 (g)
6. -liberate SO2 from sulphites (SO3
2-)
Na2SO3 (s) + 2HCl (aq) → 2NaCl(aq) + SO2 (g) + H2O (l)
NB: The mineral acids (HCl, H2SO4, HNO3) are corrosive (burn) when concentrated
The basicity (proticity) of an acid is the number of moles of hydrogen (H+) ions produced from one
mole of the acid in aqueous solution.

Strong and weak acids
NB: The term `strength` relates to the degree of ionisation of the acid or alkali in aqueous solution.
The acidity of a solution is proportional to the number of H+ ions present.
The term `concentrated` relates to amount of solute (acid or alkali) used to make up a given
volume of solution.
.A Strong Acid is one which is completely ionised in aqueous solution
e.g. HCl (aq) → H+
(aq) + Cl−
(aq)
HNO3 (aq) → H+
(aq) + NO3

(aq)
H2SO4 (aq) → 2H+

A Weak Acid is one which is partially ionised in aqueous solution. It consists mainly of acid
`molecules` and its ionisation is reversible.

Bases
3. 3
A Base is a compound which contains oxide (O2-) or hydroxide (OH-) ions and which neutralises acids
to form a salt and water only (A base is a metal oxide or metal hydroxide).
Base
(Metal oxide or metal hydroxide)
Insoluble base soluble base (alkalis)
An Alkali is a compound which produces hydroxide ions (OH−) as the only negatively charged ions in
aqueous solution (an alkali is a soluble base).
Neutralisation is the reaction between the hydrogen (H+) ions of an acid and the oxide (O2-) or
hydroxide (OH-) ions of a base to form water. A salt is also formed
H+
(aq) + OH−
(aq) → H2O (l)
2H+
(aq) + O2−
(aq) → H2O (l)
Common Alkalis
Chemical Name Formula Common Name Solubility In Water Type Of Alkali
Potassium Hydroxide KOH Caustic Potash Very soluble Strong
Sodium Hydroxide NaOH Caustic Soda Very soluble Strong
Calcium Hydroxide Ca(OH)2 Lime Water Slightly Soluble
Aqueous Ammonia NH3 (aq) --- --- Weak
Magnesium Hydroxide Mg(OH)2 Milk of Magnesia Slightly Soluble
NB: Zn (OH) 2, Pb (OH) 2, Al (OH) 3, are Amphoteric Hydroxides as they neutralize both acids and bases
to form a salt and water only.
Properties of Alkalis
1. -Have a soapy feeling and a bitter taste.
2. -Turn red litmus blue
3. -Neutralize acids to form salt and water only.
MgO (s) + H2SO4 → MgSO4 (aq) + H2O (l)
4. -Liberate ammonia (NH3) from ammonium salts
NH4Cl (s) + NaOH (aq) → NaCl (aq) + NH3 (g) + H2O (l)
5. -Precipitate many hydroxides from solutions of their salts.
CuSO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → Cu (OH) 2 (s) + Na2SO4 (aq)
NB: Alkaline solutions will absorb CO2 from the atmosphere resulting in a white crust being formed
on the inside of the bottle. This often makes it difficult to remove glass stoppers from the
bottles.
Strong Alkalis – completely ionized in aqueous solution.
NaOH(aq) → Na+

The pH scale
The pH scale is a measure of the acidity (concentration of H+ ions) or alkalinity (concentration of
OH- ions) of a solution. The pH of a solution can be determined using universal indicator or a pH
meter.
Universal indicator is a mixture of indicators which changes colour depending on the acidity or
alkalinity of a solution.

Test for Hydrogen this gas puts out a lighted splint with a ‘pop’
Test for Carbon dioxide this gas turn lime water milky
Test for Sulphur dioxide this gas turns acidified potassium permanganate from purple to colourless
Test for Ammonia this gas has a pungent smell and turn damp red litmus blue
SALTS
There are two types of salts,
Acid salt
Normal salt
The type formed depends on the quantity of acid used.
An acid salt is one formed when the hydrogen (H+) ions of an acid are partially replaced by a metal ion
or the ammonium (NH4
+) ion. Acid salts, therefore, contain some H+ ions from the original acid; hence,
their solutions turn blue litmus red.
NB Only dibasic and tribasic acids can form acid salts.
e.g. H2SO4 (aq) + NaOH (aq) → NaHSO4 (aq) + H2O (l)
Sodium hydrogensulphate (acid salt)
H2SO4 (aq) + 2NaOH (aq) → Na2SO4 (aq) + 2H2O (l)
Sodium sulphate (normal salt)
Colour changes of common indicators
Indicator Acid Neutral Alkali
Litmus Red Purple Blue

5. 5
A normal salt is one formed when the hydrogen (H+) ions of an acid are completely replaced by a metal
ion or ammonium ion
2HCl (aq) + CaO(s) → CaCl2(aq) + H2O (l)
NB The solution of normal salts does not turn blue litmus red.

6. 6
Acid rain
Caused by: Oxides of sulphur and nitrogen
The pH of natural rain is 6.0 – 6.5. Acid rain is rainwater of a lower pH. This can reach values of pH4–5.
The reactions that lead to the formation of acid rain are not fully understood. However some reactions are
thought to occur as follows:
2SO2(s) + 2H2O (g) + O2 (g) → 2H2SO4 (aq)
2NO2 (g) + H2O (g) → HNO2 (aq) + HNO3 (aq)
Some effects acid rain can have on the environment are:
Death of aquatic organisms, which can affect food supplies.
Destruction of coral reefs, which can affect tourism.
Increase in the solubility of heavy metals, which can lead to their accumulation in waterways and
the consequent death of organisms.
Damage of leaves, bodies and shoots of trees.
Washing away of nutrients from the soil.
Corrosion of monuments; buildings, statues, metals e.g. iron.
CaCO3(s) + H2SO4(aq) → CaSO4(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(ℓ)
Fe(s) + HNO3(aq) → Fe(NO3)2(aq) + H2(g)
Pollutant Major sources Major Effects
Oxides of sulphur
SO2, SO3
Combustion of fossil fuels e.g. coal, smelting of sulphide
ores to produce Zinc, lead and copper.
Acid rain
Oxides of nitrogen
NO, NO2
Produced at high temperatures in the internal combustion
engine
smog, acid rain
Acid soils
Soils become acidic because of (i) acid rain or (ii) treatment with ammonium fertilizers e.g. Ammonium
sulphate. Soils treated with (NH4)2SO4 become acidic with sulphuric acid overtime. However, plants
thrive best in soils with pH between 6.3 -7. Liming the soil by adding slaked lime (solid calcium
hydroxide), quick-lime (CaO) or powdered limestone (CaCO3) neutralises the soil.
e.g., H2SO4 (aq) + Ca (OH)2 (s) → Ca SO4 (s) + 2 H2O (l)
acid in soil lime
Liming also improves drainage as it causes soil particles to clump together. This is a physical change.
NB: Lime and ammonium fertilizers should not be added to the soil at the same time as the nitrogen
needed by the plants to make protein will be lost to the atmosphere as ammonia (alkalis liberate
NH3 from ammonium salts)
e.g., (NH4)2SO4 (aq) + Ca (OH) 2 (s) → Ca SO4 (s) + 2NH3 (g) + H2O (l)
NB: Bee sting is acidic; hence treat with baking soda (alkaline)
Wasp sting is alkaline; hence treat with vinegar (ethanoic acid)
