Part 3: Solubility Rules

Why?

Double replacement reactions are one of the five common types of chemical reactions. In a double replacement reaction, one of the products of the reaction is often a precipitate, a compound that is insoluble (doesn't dissolve) in water. Because these reactions follow a predictable pattern, it is possible to identify the prodcts of a double replacement reaction using a list of rules that show which substances dissolve in water (are soluble) and which substances do not dissolve in water (are insoluble precipitates). In this actiity, you will learn how to determine if a precipitate forms and how to determine the identity of the precipitate.
Model 1 - Mixing Two Solutions

The two solutions on the left containing the reactants are combined, resulting in the mixture on the right. The products are shown in Beaker 3. The solutions are shown at about a magnification of 109.

The video in the Edpuzzle below discusses the reaction and diagram from above. Remember a similar demo from the beginning of the unit?

If you do not have an edpuzzle account, log in using your DPSWatch and answer the questions in the Edpuzzle below before moving on. You might also want to make changes to the previous set of questions.

A few things:
  • You might want to take notes as you watch.
  • The video mentions page numbers - please do not worry about these!
  • If you would like to reference the solubility rules, look at the back of your periodic table. They are also located below the Edpuzzle.

Reference the solubility rules as you answer questions 20-21

What are you struggling with the most around predicting products of double replacement reactions and solubility rules?

Recall the types of chemical reactions discussed earlier in the unit. Which of the following best describes a double replacement reaction?
A + BC → AC + B
CxHy + O2 → CO2 + H2O
AB → A + B
AB + CD → AD + CB
A + B → AB
Which of the following reactions is a double replacement reaction? Note that the equations are not balanced and that there may be more than one more answer.
N2 + H2 →NH3
Al + Fe2O3 →Al2O3 + Fe
AgNO3 + CuI2 → Cu(NO3)2 + AgI
NaI + Pb(NO3)2 → NaNO3 + PbI2

Part 2: Predicting Products of Double Replacement Reactions

Before we can predict the states of matter of the products in a double replacement reaction, we must first make sure that we can predict the products of a double replacement reaction. Follow the example below, then answer questions

Examine the following equation:



Step 1: In order to determine the products, start off by determining the charge of each ion in the reactants. Look at your polyatomic ions and periodic table if you are having trouble remembering them. It may help to write them out above the formulas:



Step 2: Determine which products will form in the reactions. Remember that, in a double replacement reaction, the ions "trade partners", and that oppositely charged ions always attract:



Step 3: Write your products. Keep in mind that the charges of the ions do not change from the reactants side to the products side. Also remember that ionic compounds are always neutral, so you may need to add subscripts to your formulas:



Step 4: Balance the Equation. If you are having trouble balancing, you may want to recheck your ionic equation formulas:
