Definition
A specific bond which occurs only between hydrogen and other, fairly electronegative atoms. When Hydrogen bonds to a very electronegative atom, like Fluorine, it basically loses its electron and so it becomes very positively charged. It now interacts strongly with the negatively charged sides of other electronegative atoms. |

Bronsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases |
|
Definition
According to Bronsted-Lowry, acids donate protons and bases accept protons. These acids and bases always occur in pairs, and the second substance in a pairing is called the conjugate acid/base |

Dipole-Dipole attractions |
|
Definition
When polar molecules orient themselves such that their positive ends are closer to the negative ends of the other particles. This produces higher boiling points than comparable non-polar intermolecular forces. Dipole-Dipole rarely occurs in the gaseous phase because the atoms are so far apart. |

Kinetic molecular theory of gases (give the whole rule) |
|
Definition
The theory defining the conditions for an "ideal gas": 1) Gases are made of particles whose size is negligible in comparison to the size of their container 2) Gas atoms or molecules do not show any significant intermolecular attraction or repulsion 3) Gas particles are in continuous and random motion, colliding with other particles and the container wall 4) Collisions between any gas particles are elastic, so no energy is dissipated 5) The average kinetic energy of gas particles is proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas, and is the same for all gases at that temperature |

Definition
Relative amount in which each isotope is present in a given sample of an element. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
An atom with the same number of protons as a normal atom of that element but a different number of neutrons For example, one of Hydrogen's isotopes, deutirium, has an atomic weight of 2 but only 1 proton, meaning one neutron has been added to the hydrogen. It is still called hydrogen because of the number of protons. |

What is the molar mass of a 2.8 g sample of gas that occupies a volume of 3L at a temperature of 546 K and pressure 1.5 atm? |
|
Definition
Volume@STP= 3L (original volume) *(273 K/546 K) * (1.5 atm/1 atm) Volume @ STP = 2.25 L 2.8g/2.25 L = 1.24 g/L (this is the density) at STP molar mass= 1.24 g/L * 22.4 L/mol = 28 g/mol NOTE the 22.4 comes from the rule that one mol of any gas will occupy 22.4 L at STP The sample is most likely N2 |
