Aqueous Solutions:

I can:

1. Predict to some extent whether a substance will be a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte.
2. Predict the ions that dissociate  from an  electrolyte .
3. Using solubility rules, predict if a precipitate forms in a metathesis reaction, and thus predict its products and write a balanced equation.
4. Predict the products and write a balanced chemical equation for neutralization reactions.
5. After constructing molecular reactions for metathesis reactions, be able to identify spectator ions and write the net ionic equations.
6. Calculate moles of solute, volume of solution, or molarity of the solution from the other two.
7. Calculate, identify apparatus and write the procedure for preparing solutions from both a solid reagent and a stock solutions.
8. Recognize and solve dilution problems.
9. Calculate the volume of a certain molarity solution required to react with another solution of known molarity.
10. Calculate the mass of a substance that would be required to react with a given volume of a solution of known molarity.
11. Identify substances as acids, bases, and salts.
12. Calculate mass of solute or concentration of an unknown solution from titration data.
13. Assign oxidation numbers to atoms.
14. Determine whether a reaction is Redox or not.
15. Use the activity series to predict whether a Redox (single replacement) reaction will occur, and be able to write the molecular and net ionic equation.
16. Identify redox reactions, the species oxidized, reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent.
17. Balance redox reactions by using oxidation number method and half-reactions method
18. Use Standard Reduction table to identify oxidizing/reducing agents.
