chpt. 4.1 -- reactions in aqueous solutions

This is intro. to Chemistry class notes on . This document goes into detail about aqueous solutions being created by dissolving a substance in water, ionic molecules dissociating in aqueous solutions if they are soluble, water being an effective solvent, molecular compounds dissolving in water, the difference between a solution of ionic vs. molecular molecules, dissociation of soluble ionic molecules creating electrolytes, recap of ionic vs. molecular compounds, strong vs. weak electrolytes, clarifying states of matter in chemical equations, categorizing strong, weak, and non-electrolytes, defining what solubility is for ionic compounds, solubility for ionic compounds, using charts to predicting solubility, exchange reactions involving ionic compounds in solutions, precipitation reactions, double displacement reactions, and the steps of writing precipitation reactions.
