Scientific Concepts and Discoveries Presented

Definition of Oxides:
- Oxides are compounds composed of oxygen and another element (metal or nonmetal).
- General formula involves some number of atoms of element X and oxygen atoms.
Determining Formulas of Oxides:
- Use the Cross method based on the valencies (oxidation states) of the elements involved.
- Valency of oxygen is typically 2 (divalent).
- Valency of other elements depends on their group in the periodic table.
- The Cross method involves swapping valencies to balance the formula (e.g., if element X is x-valent and oxygen is y-valent, formula is XyOx).
- When valencies reduce to a fraction, they should be simplified.
Valency Cheat Sheet Based on Periodic table groups:
- Group 1 elements: monovalent (Valency = 1).
- Group 2 elements: divalent (Valency = 2).
- Group 13 elements: typically trivalent (Valency = 3).
- Group 14 elements: can be divalent or tetravalent.
- Group 15 elements: variable valencies (e.g., nitrogen can have multiple valencies).
- Group 16 elements: usually divalent (oxygen always divalent).
- Group 17 elements: monovalent.
Examples of Oxide formulas:
- Sodium oxide: Na2O (Na is monovalent, O divalent).
- Calcium oxide: CaO (both divalent, simplified).
- Lead oxide (PbO2): lead can be tetravalent.
- Nitrogen Oxides: various valencies (e.g., N2O5).
- Sulfur oxide: SO3 (sulfur hexavalent).
- Copper Oxides: Cu2O (copper(I) oxide), CuO (copper(II) oxide).
- Iron oxide: Fe2O3 (iron(III) oxide).
Naming Oxides:
- Name derived from the element + "oxide."
- Valency indicated in Roman numerals if the element has multiple valencies.
- For elements with fixed Valency (e.g., Group 1 and 2 metals), Valency is often omitted.
Synthesis of Oxides:
- Oxides are commonly formed by Synthesis reactions (combination of element + oxygen).
- Examples:
  - Carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide (CO2).
  - Magnesium + oxygen → magnesium oxide (MgO).
  - Potassium + oxygen → potassium oxide (K2O).
  - Iron + oxygen → iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3).
  - Nitrogen + oxygen → nitrogen pentoxide (N2O5).
- Balancing Synthesis reactions involves:
  - Writing correct formulas using valencies.
  - Balancing atoms on both sides by adjusting coefficients.
  - Using least common multiples for balancing oxygen and metal atoms.
Key Points in Reaction Balancing:
- Oxygen and nitrogen are diatomic molecules (O2, N2) in elemental form.
- Coefficients must ensure equal numbers of atoms on both sides.
- Use multiples to balance complex Oxides.

Methodology for Determining Oxide formulas and Naming

Identify the Valency of the element (from periodic table group).
Assign oxygen Valency as 2.
Use the Cross method to determine the ratio of atoms.
Simplify ratios if possible.
Write the chemical formula without writing "1" as a subscript.
Name the oxide using element name + "oxide."
Indicate Valency in Roman numerals if element has multiple valencies.
For Synthesis reactions:
- Write reactants and products.
- Balance the equation by adjusting coefficients.
- Ensure equal number of atoms on both sides.
