If a neutral atom gains extra electron(s) then it becomes a negatively charged species called an anion. If a neutral atom loses electron(s) then it becomes a positively charged species called a cation.
An atom may be represented as its Symbol preceded by its subscripted atomic number, Z, and its superscripted atomic mass number, A.

Valence Electrons
Valence electrons are located on highest in energy orbitals and most important for chemical bonding. Negatively charged electrons may act as glue for positively charged nuclei.
The term valence electron refers to the # of e-s in the outermost energy level or shell of an atom.
Ionic Bonds
These are formed when ions anions/cations of opposite charge come together. Generally ionic compounds are formed between metals (left of step) and nonmetals (right of step).

this is the case then the resulting covalent bond is a nonpolar covalent bond.
If, on the other hand the sharing is unequal then a polar covalent bond results.
The degree to which a covalent bond is polarized is indicated by the electronegativity difference between the two bonded atoms.
If the electronegativity difference is greater than .5 but less than 2.0 then the covalent bond is polar. If the electronegativity difference is less than .5 then the covalent bond is nonpolar.
Polar molecules dissolve in Polar Solvents Nonpolar molecules dissolve in nonpolar solvents Polar molecules do not dissolve in nonpolar solvent Nonpolar molecules do not dissolve in polar solvents

Larutan/solution
Definitions
solute is the substance being dissolved solvent is the liquid in which the solute is dissolved an aqueous solution has water as solvent
A saturated solution is one where the concentration is at a maximum - no more solute is able to dissolve.
A saturated solution represents an equilibrium: the rate of dissolving is equal to the rate of crystallization. The salt continues to dissolve, but crystallizes at the same rate so that there appears to be nothing happening.
What are the driving forces which cause solutes to dissolve to form solutions?
1. Covalent solutes dissolve by H-bonding to water or by LDF 2. Ionic solutes dissolve by dissociation into their ions.
Molarity(M):
Mass
percent: (mass solute / mass of solution) * 100 (m) - moles solute / Kg solvent
Molality* Mole
* Note that molality is the only concentration unit in which denominator contains only solvent information rather than solution.

What is the % W/W of copper in an alloy when 10 g of Cu is mixed with 250 g of Zn?
What is approximate % V/V if 30 mL of pure ethanol is added to 250 mL of water? What is the % W/W if 8.0 g copper is added to enough zinc to produce 100 g of an alloy?
Now that the number of moles of substance is known, this can be combined with the volume of solution which must be in liters to give the molarity. Because 250. mL is equivalent to 0.250 L . Molarity KMnO4 = 0.00275 mol KMnO4 = 0.0110 M
0.250 L solution
Dilution
When a solution is diluted, solvent is added to lower its concentration. The amount of solute remains constant before and after the dilution:

Solution Concentration
Expressing concentrations in parts per million (ppm) requires the unit on top to be 1,000,000 times smaller than the unit on the bottom E.g. 1 mg/kg or g/g Multiples of 1000 are expressed in this order _, m_, _, k_ (_ is the base unit) (pg.631) Notice that any units expressed as a volume must be referring to a water solution (1L = 1kg) For parts per billion (ppb), the top unit would have to be 1,000,000,000 times smaller

Cont
Most of the ways concentration is represented fall into the categories shown in Table 1.
Cont
In water, units mg/L of are common . because the density of pure water is approximately 1000 g/l. Most aqueous solutions encountered in environmental engineering and science are dilute, meaning that dissolved material does not add significantly to the mass of the water, and the total density remains approximately 1000 g/l.
Cont
One liter of water is analyzed and found to contain 5.0 mg TCE. What is the TCE concentration in mg/l and ppm? (density of water 1 g/cm3 or 1000 kg/m3) Mass/volume = 5 mg/L ppm mass/mass ???
Air concentration
For concentrations in the atmosphere, it is common to use units of mass/ volume air. For example, mg/m3 and g/m3 are common. Avogadro's law states, equal volumes at the same temperature and pressure contain equal amounts of moles. The volume of 22.4, at STP, is referred to as the mole volume because it contains exactly one mole at STP. To find the number of moles of a gas at STP, the volume of the gas must be divided by 22.4 liters.

Chemical Reaction
Cont
A chemical change or chemical reaction is a process in which one or more pure substances are converted into one or more different pure substances. Most of the reactions we will study belong to one of three types: 1. Precipitation reactions. In these reactions, you mix solutions of two ionic substances and a solid ionic substance (a precipitate) forms. 2. Acidbase reactions. An acid substance reacts with a substance called a base. Such reactions involve the transfer of a proton between reactants. 3. Oxidationreduction reactions. These involve the transfer of electrons between reactants.
Ionic solution
Although water is itself nonconducting, it has the ability to dissolve various substances, some of which go into solution as freely moving ions. An aqueous solution of ions is electrically conducting
Electrolyte
A strong electrolyte is an electrolyte that exists in solution almost entirely as ions. A weak electrolyte is an electrolyte that dissolves in water to give a relatively small percentage of ions
Cont
Most soluble molecular substances are either non electrolytes or weak electrolytes. An exception is hydrogen chloride gas, HCl(g), which dissolves in water to produce hydrogen ions and chloride ions STRONG ELECTROLYTE
Solubility
It is clear from the preceding discussion that substances vary widely in their solubility, or ability to dissolve, in water. Soluble substances are either electrolytes or nonelectrolytes. Nonelectrolytes form non-conducting aqueous solutions because they dissolve completely as molecules. Electrolytes form electrically conducting solutions in water because they dissolve to give ions in solution.
Cont
Almost all soluble ionic substances are strong electrolytes. The solubility rules can be used to predict the solubility of ionic compounds in water.
