Cards

Term
Molarity vs. Molality
Definition
M vs. m
mols solute/liters solution vs. mols solute/kg solvent
Term
Solubility Rules
Definition
1) Like dissolves like- two substances with intermolecular forces of about the same type and magnitude
2) Endothermic reactions (H>0)- increase in temperature, increase in solubility
Exothermic reactions (H<0)- incease in temperature, decrease in solubility
3) Pressure (gas-liquid systems)- increasing pressure increases solubilty
Term
Zero Order, First Order, and Second Order reactions
Definition
First- ln(Ao/A)=kt
half life t= 0.693/k
Zero- [A]=[A]o-kt
rate=k
Second- rate=k[A]^2
[A]-[A]o^-1=kt
Term
Colligative Properties of Nonelectorlytes
Definition
Vapor pressure lowering
Osmotic pressure
Boiling point elevation
Freezing point depression
Depend primarily on concentration of solute particles
Term
Vapor Pressure lowering
Definition
directly proportional to solute mol fraction
Term
Boiling point elevation/Freezing point lowering
Definition
Raise boiling point and lower freezing point
Direct result of vapor pressure lowering
Term
Osmotic pressure
Definition
water moves from region where its vapor pressure or mole fraction is high to one in which its vapor pressure or mole fraction is lower
Term
K and Q relationship
Definition
Q
Q>K <--
Term
What is a buffer?
Definition
Solution containing amounts of both weak acid and its conjugate base
Term
What makes an indicator a good indicator for a specific buffer system?
Definition
Point at which it changes color (its end point) is the equivalence point
Term
Ksp?
Definition
solubility product constant
Term
Entropy
Definition
randomness factor
Increase temperature- increase entropy
Pure substances always have positive quantities
Aqueous ions may have negative S values
Number of moles of gas increases, so does entropy
Term
Spontaneous process
Definition
Ssystem + Ssurroundings = Suniverse >0
Term
Free Energy
Definition
G<0 spontaneous
G>0 not spontaneous, reverse is
G=0 equilibrium
Term
Relation among G, H, S
Definition
G=H-TS
H<0, exothermic reactions tend to be spontaneous
S>0 entropy change is positive, spontaneous if products are less ordered than reactants
Term
Standard Free Energy Change
Definition
G<0 spontaneous at standard conditions
G>0 reaction is nonspontaneous at standard conditions
G=0 equilibrium at standard conditions
Term
Standard Enthalpy Change
Definition
Calculated from heats of formation
Term
Effect of
Temperature
Pressure
Concentration
on Reaction spontaneity
Definition
Temperature- impossible to change spontaneity with temperature alone
Pressure- G=G0 + RTlnQ
Concentration- ^
Term
Spontaneity of Redox Reactions
Definition
E>0, spontaneous
Term
Changing concentration and its effect on voltage
Definition
Increase concentration of reactant or decrease concentration of produce will increase voltage
and vice versa
Term
Voltaic Cell
Definition
ANODE (marked negative pole of cell)- electrongs are produced by the oxidation half-reaction and pumped into the external circuit
CATHODE- Electrons generated at anode move through the external circuit to the cathode, electrons are consumed
Term
Salt Bridge
Definition
Cations move from anode to cathode, anions move to anode
Term
Radiation
Definition
1) beta particles identical to properties in electrons
2) alpha particles, 42He
3) gamma rays, high energy radiation
Term
5 types of radioactivity
Definition
1) Alpha particle emission
2) Beta particle emission
3) Gamma radiation emission
4)Positron emission, same as beta but positive
5) K-electron capture, negative electron in reactants
Term
Bombardment reactions
Definition
stable nucleus is converted ot once that is radioactive, which in turn decays into stable products
Term
Bombarding particles
Definition
1) neutron- product nucleus decays by beta emission
2) charged particle
Term
Nuclear fission vs. fusion
Definition
Breaking up heavy nucleus into smaller nuclei utnil mass numbers near maximum vs. combining light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus
