Most salts of nitric acid. Nitrous and nitric acids and their salts

In order to depict the formula of a salt graphically, you should:

1. Write the empirical formula of this compound correctly.

2. Considering that any salt can be represented as a product of neutralization of the corresponding acid and base, the formulas of the acid and base that form this salt should be depicted separately.

For example:

Ca(HSO 4) 2 - calcium hydrogen sulfate can be obtained by incomplete neutralization of sulfuric acid H 2 SO 4 with calcium hydroxide Ca(OH) 2.

3. Determine how many molecules of acid and base are required to obtain a molecule of this salt.

For example:

To obtain a Ca(HSO 4) 2 molecule, one molecule of base (one calcium atom) and two molecules of acid (two acid residues HSO 4  1) are required.

Ca(OH) 2 + 2H 2 SO 4 = Ca(HSO 4) 2 + 2H 2 O.

Next, you should construct graphic images of the formulas of the established number of molecules of the base and acid and, mentally removing the hydroxyl anions of the base and hydrogen cations of the acid that participate in the neutralization reaction and form water, obtain a graphic image of the formula of the salt:

O – H H - O O O O

Ca + → Ca + 2 H - O - H

O – H H - O O O O

H- O O H- O O

Physical properties of salts

Salts are crystalline solids. Based on their solubility in water, they can be divided into:

1) highly soluble,

2) slightly soluble,

3) practically insoluble.

Most salts of nitric and acetic acids, as well as potassium, sodium and ammonium salts, are soluble in water.

Salts have a wide range of melting and thermal decomposition temperatures.

Chemical properties of salts

The chemical properties of salts characterize their relationship to metals, alkalis, acids and salts.

1. Salts in solutions interact with more active metals.

A more active metal replaces a less active metal in the salt (see Appendix Table 9).

For example:

Рb(NO 3) 2 + Zn = Рb + Zn(NO 3) 2,

Hg(NO 3) 2 + Cu = Hg + Cu(NO 3) 2.

2. Salt solutions react with alkalis, this produces a new base and a new salt.

For example:

CuSO 4 + 2KOH = Cu(OH) 2  + 2K 2 SO 4,

FeCl 3 + 3NaOH = Fe(OH) 3 + 3NaCl.

3. Salts react with solutions of stronger or less volatile acids, this produces a new salt and a new acid.

For example:

a) as a result of the reaction, a weaker acid or a more volatile acid is formed:

Na 2 S + 2HC1 = 2NaCl + H 2 S

b) reactions of salts of strong acids with weaker acids are also possible if the reaction results in the formation of a slightly soluble salt:

СuSO 4 + Н 2 S = СuS + H 2 SO 4 .

4. Salts in solutions enter into exchange reactions with other salts, this produces two new salts.

For example:

NaС1 + AgNO 3 = AgCl + NaNO 3,

CaCI 2 + Na 2 CO 3 = CaCO 3  + 2NaCl,

CuSO 4 + Na 2 S = CuS+ Na 2 SO 4.

It should be remembered that exchange reactions proceed almost to completion if one of the reaction products is released from the reaction sphere in the form of a precipitate, gas, or if water or other weak electrolyte is formed during the reaction.

Nitric acid. Nitrates
(end)

HNO 3 is a strong oxidizing agent. Concentrated nitric acid oxidizes nonmetals to higher oxidation states:

Passivation occurs due to the formation of insoluble films of metal oxides:

2Al + 6HNO 3 = Al 2 O 3 + 6NO 2 + 3H 2 O.

HNO 3 (conc.) can be stored and transported without air access in containers made of Fe, Al, Ni.
A qualitative reaction is the interaction of HNO 3 with Cu to form a brown NO 2 gas with a pungent odor (in addition, salt and water are formed).

As the concentration (dilution) decreases, HNO 3 with Zn can form various nitrogen-containing products:

and also in all cases salt and water.

Note . To recognize the nitrate anion, a diphenylamine indicator is used (a solution of (C 6 H 5) 2 NH in conc. H 2 SO 4).
Demonstration experience . Recognition is carried out “by traces” or by droplet contact: a dark blue color appears.

Nitrates– salts of nitric acid, crystalline solids, highly soluble in water. Nitrates alkali metals, calcium and ammonium – saltpeter.
Most nitrates are very good mineral fertilizers.
Nitrates are strong oxidizing agents! Coal, sulfur and other flammable substances burn in molten nitrate, since all nitrates (like HNO 3) release oxygen when heated and, depending on the chemical activity of the metal, salts give different products:

HNO 3 is a strong acid. Its salts - nitrates-- obtained by the action of HNO 3 on metals, oxides, hydroxides or carbonates. All nitrates are highly soluble in water.

Salts of nitric acid - nitrates - decompose irreversibly when heated, the decomposition products are determined by the cation:

  • a) nitrates of metals located in the voltage series to the left of magnesium:
    • 2NaNO3 = 2NaNO2 + O2
  • b) nitrates of metals located in range of voltages between magnesium And copper:
    • 4Al(NO 3) 3 = 2Al 2 O 3 + 12NO 2 + 3O 2
  • c) nitrates of metals located in the voltage series to the right mercury:
    • 2AgNO3 = 2Ag + 2NO2 + O2
  • G) ammonium nitrate:

NH 4 NO 3 = N 2 O + 2H 2 O

Nitrates in aqueous solutions exhibit practically no oxidizing properties, but when high temperature in the solid state, nitrates are strong oxidizing agents, for example:

Fe + 3KNO 3 + 2KOH = K 2 FeO 4 + 3KNO 2 + H 2 O - when fusing solids.

Zinc And aluminum in an alkaline solution, nitrates are reduced to NH 3:

Nitric acid salts -- nitrates-- widely used as fertilizers. Moreover, almost all nitrates are highly soluble in water, so there are extremely few of them in nature in the form of minerals; the exception is Chilean (sodium) saltpeter and Indian saltpeter ( potassium nitrate). Most nitrates are obtained artificially.

Does not react with nitric acid glass, fluoroplastic-4.

Historical information

The method of obtaining dilute nitric acid by dry distillation of saltpeter with alum and copper sulfate was apparently first described in the treatises of Jabir (Geber in Latinized translations) in the 8th century. This method, with various modifications, the most significant of which was the replacement of copper sulfate with iron sulfate, was used in European and Arab alchemy until the 17th century.

IN XVII century Glauber proposed a method for producing volatile acids by reacting their salts with concentrated sulfuric acid, including nitric acid from potassium nitrate, which made it possible to introduce concentrated nitric acid into chemical practice and study its properties. Method Glauber was used before XX century, and its only significant modification was the replacement of potassium nitrate with cheaper sodium (Chilean) nitrate.

In the time of M.V. Lomonosov, nitric acid was called strong vodka. Industrial production, application and effect on the body

Nitric acid production

Nitric acid is one of the largest volume products chemical industry.

Nitric acid production

The modern method of its production is based on the catalytic oxidation of synthetic ammonia on platinum-rhodium catalysts(process Ostwald) to the mixture oxides nitrogen(nitrous gases), with their further absorption water

  • 4NH 3 + 5O2(Pt) > 4 NO + 6H2O
  • 2NO + O2 > 2NO 2
  • 4NO 2 + O2 + 2H2O> 4HNO 3 .

Concentration The amount of nitric acid obtained by this method varies depending on the technological design of the process from 45 to 58%. Alchemists were the first to obtain nitric acid by heating a mixture of saltpeter and iron sulfate:

4KNO 3 + 2(FeSO 4 · 7H 2 O)(t°) > Fe2O3 + 2K2SO4+2HNO3^+ NO 2^ + 13H2O

Pure nitric acid was first obtained by Johann Rudolf Glauber by treating nitrate with concentrated sulfuric acid:

KNO 3 + H2SO4(conc.) (t°) > KHSO 4+HNO3^

By further distillation the so-called “fuming nitric acid”, containing virtually no water.

With oxidation states +1, +2, +3, +4, +5.

The oxides N20 and N0 are non-salt-forming (what does this mean?), and the remaining oxides are acidic: N2O3 corresponds to nitrous acid HN02, and N205 corresponds to nitric acid HNO3. Nitrogen oxide (IV) NO2, when dissolved in water, simultaneously forms two acids - HNO2 and HNO3.

If it dissolves in water in the presence of excess oxygen, only nitric acid is obtained

4N02 + 02 + 2H20 = 4HNO3

Nitrogen oxide (IV) NO2 is a brown, very poisonous gas. It is easily obtained by the oxidation of colorless, non-salt-forming nitric oxide (N) by atmospheric oxygen:

Oxides. Nitrogen forms five oxides with oxidation states +1, +2, +3, +4, +5.

The oxides N 2 O and NO are non-salt-forming (what does this mean?), and the remaining oxides are acidic: corresponds to nitrous acid, a - nitric acid. Nitrogen oxide (IV), when dissolved in water, simultaneously forms two acids - HNO 2 and HNO 3:

2NO 2 + H 2 O = HNO 2 + HNO 3.

If it is dissolved in water in the presence of excess oxygen, only nitric acid is obtained:

4NO 2 + O 2 + 2H 2 O = 4HNO 3.

Nitrogen oxide (IV) NO 2 is a brown, very poisonous gas. It is easily obtained by the oxidation of colorless, non-salt-forming nitrogen oxide (II) with air oxygen:

2NO + O 2 = 2NO 2.

Nitric acid HNO 3. It is a colorless liquid that “smoke” in air. When stored in the light, concentrated nitric acid turns yellow, as it partially decomposes to form brown gas NO 2:

4HNO 3 = 2H 2 O + 4NO 2 + O 2.

Nitric acid exhibits all the typical properties of strong acids: it interacts with metal oxides and hydroxides, with salts (make up the appropriate reaction equations).

Laboratory experiment No. 32
Properties of dilute nitric acid

Carry out experiments to prove that nitric acid exhibits the typical properties of acids.
  1. Place a little black powder or one granule of copper (II) oxide in a test tube, pour 1-2 ml of nitric acid solution into it. Secure the test tube in the holder and heat it on the flame of an alcohol lamp. What are you observing? Write the molecular and ionic equations.
  2. Pour 1-2 ml of alkali solution into a test tube, add 2-3 drops of phenolphthalein solution. What are you observing? Add nitric acid solution to the contents of the test tube until the color disappears. What is this reaction called? Write down its molecular and ionic equations.
  3. Pour 1 ml of copper sulfate solution into a test tube, add 1-2 ml of alkali solution. What are you observing? Add a solution of nitric acid to the contents of the test tube until the precipitate disappears. Write down the molecular and ionic equations of the reactions performed.

Nitric acid behaves in a special way with metals - none of the metals displaces hydrogen from nitric acid, regardless of its concentration (for sulfuric acid this behavior is characteristic only in its concentrated state). This is explained by the fact that HNO 3 is a strong oxidizing agent; in it, nitrogen has a maximum oxidation state of +5. It is this that will be restored when interacting with metals.

The reduction product depends on the position of the metal in the stress series, on the acid concentration and on the reaction conditions. For example, when reacting with copper, concentrated nitric acid is reduced to nitric oxide (IV):

Laboratory experiment No. 33
Reaction of concentrated nitric acid with copper

Carefully pour 1 ml of concentrated nitric acid into the test tube. Using the tip of a glass tube, scoop up a little copper powder and pour it into a test tube with acid. (If there is no copper powder in your office, you can use a small piece of very thin copper wire, which must first be rolled into a ball.) What do you observe? Why does the reaction occur without heating? Why does this experiment not require the use of a fume hood? If the area of ​​contact between copper and nitric acid is less than the proposed experimental option, then what conditions must be observed?

After the experiment, immediately place the test tubes with their contents in a fume hood. Write down the reaction equation and consider redox processes.

Iron and aluminum, when exposed to concentrated HNO 2, are covered with a durable oxide film, which protects the metal from further oxidation, i.e. the acid passivates the metals. Therefore, nitric acid, like sulfuric acid, can be transported in steel and aluminum tanks.

Nitric acid oxidizes many organic matter, decolorizes dyes. This usually releases a lot of heat and the substance ignites. So, if a drop of turpentine is added to nitric acid, a bright flash occurs, and a smoldering splinter in the nitric acid lights up (Fig. 135).

Rice. 135.
Burning a splinter in nitric acid

Nitric acid is widely used in the chemical industry for the production of nitrogen fertilizers, plastics, artificial fibers, organic dyes and varnishes, medicinal and explosives (Fig. 136).

Rice. 136.
Nitric acid is used to produce:
1 - fertilizers; 2 - plastics; 3 - medicines; 4 - varnishes; 5 - artificial fibers; 6 - explosives

Nitric acid salts - nitrates are obtained by the action of acid on metals, their oxides and hydroxides. Sodium, potassium, calcium and ammonium nitrates are called nitrates: NaNO 3 - sodium nitrate, KNO 3 - potassium nitrate, Ca(NO 3) 2 - calcium nitrate, NH 4 NO 3 - ammonium nitrate. Nitrate is used as nitrogen fertilizer.

Potassium nitrate is also used in the manufacture of black gunpowder, and ammonium nitrate, as you already know, is used to prepare the explosive ammonal. Silver nitrate, or lapis, AgNO 3 is used in medicine as a cauterizing agent.

Almost all nitrates are highly soluble in water. When heated, they decompose releasing oxygen, for example:
