Precipitation Reactions:
Ions in Aqueous Solution:
• Precipitate = solid that forms in ion-
• Ions = elements that have lost or gained electrons. exchange reaction.
• Negative ions = anions. • Solubility of ionic substances:
• Positive ions = cations.
• Ionic crystal lattice formed when ions bond
together to form a solid.
• Aqueous solution = solution in which the solvent is
water.
• Dissolution occurs when ionic solid is placed in Salt Produced by
water: Precipitation Reaction:
- Ionic compound breaks into positive and
•Sample negative ions.
- Ions are hydrated.
Water molecules are polar molecules - hydrogen
atoms are slightly positively charged, and oxygen
ions are slightly negatively charged.
U1: Reactions
in Aqueous
Solutions (A)
• Salts are made of positive and negative ions.
• Salts that will be dealt with will be made of a
metal ion or ammonium ion (NH4+) with:
- Cl-, Br-, I- (chloride, bromide or iodide ions).
- SO42- (sulphate ions).
