Calcium oxide reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide: CaO(s) 1 H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq)
Then, calcium hydroxide reacts with an acid, producing a salt and water. Sample equation:
Ca(OH)2(aq) 1 H2SO4(aq) → H2O(l) 1 CaSO4(aq)
39. (a)
(b)
Because Ca is in Group 2 of the periodic table, it needs to lose two electrons to have a stable outer
orbit. It becomes an ion with a 12 charge.
S is in Group 16 of the periodic table, which means it needs to gain two electrons to have a stable outer
orbit. It becomes an ion with a 22 charge.

(c) K
is in Group 1 of the period table, so it has one electron in its outermost orbit. To have a stable outer
orbit, it needs to lose this electron to become an ion with a 11 charge.
(d) Al
is the third element in its row, which means it has three electrons in its outer orbit. It needs to lose
these electrons to have a stable outer orbit, so it becomes an ion with a 13 charge.

Diagrams should show that the outer electron orbit of a phosphorus atom contains five electrons. For
this outer energy level to be full (contain eight electrons), three electrons need to be added. Three added
electrons give a neutral atom a charge of 23.

50. (a)
The pH would decrease. Ocean organisms that are sensitive to pH would decrease in population.
(b) When
these populations decrease, it also affects populations of organisms that depend on them for
food. The entire ocean ecosystem is affected.

Sample answer: Filled outer electron orbits are very stable. A helium atom has a completely filled outer
shell of two electrons. When a lithium atom loses one electron, it becomes an ion that has the same
arrangement of outer electrons as helium. Left with two electrons and three protons, the lithium ion has
a 11 charge. Another example is chlorine. Chlorine has seven electrons in its outermost orbit. To have a
full and stable outer orbit, it must gain one electron and become an ion with a 21 charge.

Elements in the same group have atoms with the same number of electrons in its outer orbit. These are
the electrons that are shared or transferred to form bonds. For a given element, the number of valence
electrons in each atom of the element determines how many electrons will be involved in bonding, and
this influences the formula of the resulting compound. Also, the bonding pattern of an element influences
its chemical properties.

(e) The

Sample answer: Immediately, my family can reduce our use of electricity and use alternate forms of
transportation. In the long term, we can support legislation to control emissions by corporations.

XH3. Each Mg atom would lose its two outer electrons so that its outer orbit would be a full and stable
orbit. Because each Mg ion has a charge of 12, three Mg ions would have a total charge of 16. To balance
this charge, the two ions of X would each have to have a charge of 23. Because X has a charge of 23,
three hydrogen atoms would be needed to balance it.

Sample answers:
(a) Burning
of fossil fuels releases sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides into the environment. These
pollutants combine with water in the air to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then come down
in the form of acid precipitation. An increase in the number of cars means more fossil fuels are being
burned and more sulfur oxides are produced, which in turn increase the level of acid precipitation.
(b) To
minimize the acid-causing emissions from cars, the new town could build an efficient mass transit
system and also build bike lanes around the city. This would reduce the number of people that would
otherwise drive a car. The city could also implement a carpooling system to further reduce the number
of cars on the road. Lastly, there could be some sort of incentive, such as a rebate, for people who
participated in these programs.
62.
Sample answers:
(a) I
would design a community to have efficient public transportation. There would also be bike lanes to
encourage bicyclists. I would also support legislation and enforcement of pollution-control laws.
(b) Whereas
my community has public buses, there are not a lot of bike lanes. Laws concerning pollutioncontrol are not always enforced.
63.
In both instances, “indicator” shows an organism or substance that changes if its surrounding environment
changes.

Sample answers:
(a) As
a result of acid precipitation, forests produce less oxygen and use less carbon dioxide. This means
fewer products made from forest resources, such as lumber, and they are more expensive.
(b) lumber,
paper
(c) My
family and I could use public transportation instead of driving. We could also reduce the amount of
electricity we use.
65.
More people in one car results in fewer cars on the road. Fewer cars means reduced acid-causing emissions.
66.
Mining and refining metals cause pollutants to be released into the air that lead to acid precipitation. An
economic slowdown that results in less demand for metals mined in Ontario may lead to a decrease in acid
precipitation, because reduced mining will lead to fewer acid precipitation-causing pollutants.
67. (a)
CO is produced by incomplete combustion of fossil fuels in faulty furnaces or poorly maintained
vehicle engines. CO2 is produced by the combustion of fossil fuels in an adequate air supply, as in the
case of many power sources.
(b) CO
is a poisonous gas that can cause death if inhaled. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and is
considered one of the major causes of climate change.
(c) The
amount of CO released by a vehicle engine can be reduced by better engine maintenance or engine
overhaul. CO2 emissions can be reduced by carpooling and by converting to energy sources that do not
rely on burning fossil fuels, such as wind and solar power.

Sample answer: I now know that some things I poured down the drain might be strongly acidic or basic,
which can affect the pH of water and soil, and consequently, entire ecosystems. What affected me the most
was finding out how many household products can do that. If I know something is basic or acidic, I will
now neutralize it with baking soda or vinegar before pouring it down the drain.

Sample answer: I used to think that air pollution was produced mainly by factory smoke stacks. I learned
that air pollutants are produced by several other sources as well. For example, automobile exhaust contains
nitrogen oxides, which become a part of smog. Also, the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels produces
carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and incomplete combustion produces soot and carbon monoxide.

Research, evaluations, and recommendations should be fair and unbiased. Any testing should identify
variables. Any recommendation should be justified by accurate scientific reasoning.
71.
Both sides of the issue should be presented in a fair and unbiased manner. For example, if a student
chooses Are biofuels the solution to our future energy needs? as their issue, the environmental view could
include the idea that biofuels might increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Using
biofuels also reduces the number of growing plant matter, which decreases the amount of oxygen produced
and the amount of carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere. An economic view could show that
using biofuels could be more economical than using fossil fuels.
72.
Be sure that students investigate the more recent decisions. Students will probably find that target dates
have been extended because of a lack of alternative fuels.
