Chemistry

71 Terms

1

Cation

metals lose e- always smaller than original molecule

New cards
2

Anion

nonmetals gain e- always larger than original molecule

New cards
3

Atomic/Ionic Radius

increases as you go down because more e- shells

decreases as you go across because stronger nuclear charge pulls e- in closer

New cards
4

Ionization Energy

decreases as you go down because it's easier to remove an e- farther from the nucleus

increases as you go across because the e- are closer to the nucleus so it's harder to remove them

New cards
5

Electronegativity

decreases as you go down, atoms become more metallic and want to get rid of e-

increases as you go across, atoms become more nonmetallic and want to gain e- to form an octet

*noble gases excluded because they have an octet

New cards
6

Exceptions to Ionization Energy

all of 3A and 6A because of e- pairing (consult orbital diagram notes for further explanation)

New cards
7

Coloumbic Forces

  1. charge of ion

  2. size/atomic radius of ion

high charge + small radius = larger lattice energy and stronger attraction and vice versa

New cards
8

Ionic Compounds

  • formed when metal transfers VE to nonmetals

  • ions arrange themselves in a crystal lattice

  • held together via strong electrostatic attractions

  • high melting point

  • if dissolved in a polar solvent, will form an electrolytic solution

New cards
9

Covalent Compounds

  • formed when nonmetals share VE to achieve octet

  • covalent bonds form molecules

  • held together via IMF, not chemical bonds

  • low melting points

  • never forms an electrolytic solution

*network covalent compounds don't dissolve

New cards
10

Substitutional Alloy

formed between 2 atoms of similar atomic radii

New cards
11

Interstitual Alloy

formed from 2 metals of vastly different radii

  • smaller atom fills up empty spaces between larger atoms and results in a more durable structure

New cards
12

Bond Strength

triple > double > single

stronger bond = shorter length

New cards
13

2 domains: 2 bonding pairs

linear 180° sp

New cards

New cards
19

ΔHrxn=ΣΔHbroken + ΣΔHformed

bond enthalpy: energy absorbed/released in a rxn

need the lewis structure for this one

ΔHrxn > 0 --> endothermic rxn ΔHrxn < 0 --> exothermic rxn

New cards
20

Formal Charges

FC = # of VE in free atom - # of bonds - # of unbonded e-

New cards
21

Resonance Structures

occurs when e- shift to form alternative lewis structures

New cards
22

Resonance Stability

  • all atoms must have complete octet

  • formal charges kept @ minimum

  • if formal charges are present, the negative charge is on the more electronegative element

New cards
23

Net Ionic Equations

  1. write the balanced chemical equation

  2. write the complete ionic equation

  3. cancel out the common ones basically, then you get the net ionic equation

New cards
24

Limiting/Excess Reagents

  1. write the equation

  2. figure out what's limiting: convert grams to moles then use balanced chemical equation to figure out what's limiting

  3. calculate how much was used and how much is left

New cards
25

Molarity

M = n/v

n = moles of solute

v = volume of solution in L

New cards
26

Solution Stoichiometry

idk man just figure out what you’re given and do the stoichiometry

New cards
27

Preparing Solutions: From Scratch

use M = n/v

New cards
28

Preparing Solutions: From Stock Solution

use M1V1 = M2V2

New cards
29

Factors That Influence Pressure

  1. volume: lower volume = higher pressure

    • does not increase particle speed

  2. moles of gas: more moles of gas = higher pressure

  3. temperature: higher temp = higher pressure

New cards
30

Gas Laws

P1V1 = P2V2

V1/T1 = V2/T2

P1/T1 = P2/T2

PV = nRT

  • remember the difference between both R constants; this one is 0.08206 L*atm / mol*K

ideal gas conditions: high temp & low pressure

New cards
31

Mole Fractions

you can either use PV = nRT with only the moles of the gas you want, or calculate total pressure then multiply by the fraction of moles of gas

New cards
32

Kinetic Molecular Theory

  • volume of individual gases is negligible relative to the total volume

  • kinetic energy is only affected by temperature

graph is molecular speed vs fraction of molecules

lower temp: shift left w/ steeper curve

higher temp: shift right w/ less steep curve

New cards
33

Effusion/Diffusion

any atom/molecule with a smaller mass will effuse/diffuse faster

New cards
34

Polar Molecules

polar bonds: nonmetal bonded to F, O, N, Cl

  • fluorine is the most electronegative element

a symmetrical molecule or a molecule with no polar bonds is nonpolar

an asymmetrical molecule with at least 1 polar bond is polar

New cards
35

IMFs

  • not a chemical bond

strong IMF = low vapor pressure = high melting/boiling point

New cards
36

Ionic Bonds

  • formed when a positive ion bonds w/ a negative ion via electrostatic attraction

Ion Dipole: attraction between a polar molecule & ion

New cards
37

Hydrogen Bonds

  • strongest IMF

  • only occurs in polar molecules with H is bonded to F, O, or N and is attracted to lone pairs on another molecule

  • any molecule capable of H-bonding is also capable of D-D

New cards
38

Dipole-Dipole

  • all polar molecules are capable of exerting these

  • occurs when lone pairs on more EN atom are attracted to the partially positive atom on the other molecule

New cards
39

London Dispersion Forces (including shape of molecule)

  • present in all molecules

  • having more electrons makes it more polarizable (easier to separate charges) which means a stronger LDF

  • the larger the molecule, the stronger the LDF

if 2 molecules have the same formula, the one with a more linear structure will have a stronger LDF due to more surface area of interaction

New cards
40

Empirical Formulas

1: write mass %s as grams

2: convert to moles

3: divide all values by the smallest mole value

4: round to the nearest whole number unless it ends in 0.20, 0.25, 0.33, or 0.5

5: divide the molar mass of the compound by the empirical mass to get the ratio

e.g. molar mass is 162.1, empirical mass is 81 so since 162.1/81 = 2, the molecular formula will be C10H14N2 instead of C5H7N

New cards
41

Hydrated Salts

always written as salt * XH2O where X = whole number

1: determine mass of dry salt and of H2O

2: convert both to moles

3: divide mole values by the smallest mole value, which should always be the salt

New cards
42

Orbital Diagrams

just make sure one arrow is up and one is down

  • more stable when they are either 1/2 full or completely full

  • make sure each orbital has at least 1 electron before pairing up any

New cards
43

Electromagnetic Radiation

C = λν

C = speed of light: 3.0 x 10^8 m/s

λ = wavelength in m (convert nanometers to m)

ν = frequency in 1/s or Hz

6.02 x 10^23 photon/mol

New cards
44

Planck's Equation

E = hν

E = energy per photon in J/photon

h = Planck’s Constant: 6.63 x 10^-34 J*****s

ν = frequency in 1/s or s^-1

6.02 x 10^23 photon/mol

New cards
45

Thermochemistry

system: the object which heat measurement is in reference to

surrounding: everything that isn’t the system

endothermic: system temp increases, surrounding temp decreases

exothermic: system temp decreases, surrounding temp increases

  • exothermic: __ex__udes heat

New cards
46

Molar Enthalpy in relation to energy

ΔHsol = q/n

q = energy in KJ

n = moles of solute

measured in KJ/mol

New cards
47

Phase Change Using ΔHfus and ΔHvap

ΔHfus: melt/freeze 6.01 KJ/mol

ΔHvap: vaporize/condense 40.7 KJ/mol

melting & vaporizing are endothermic so positive ΔH

freezing & condensing are exothermic so negative ΔH

1: bring to phase change temp (either 0 or 100C) using

q = MCΔT

2: phase change calculations using q = nΔHvap/fus

3: bring to final temp using q = MCΔT

4: add up all the energy changes

New cards
48

Enthalpy of Rxn: Stoichiometry A+B -> C+D

endo: energy is a reactant

exo: energy is a product

ΔH is measured in KJ/ mol rxn

New cards
49

Enthalpy of Formation

ΔHrxn = nΣΔHproducts - nΣΔHreactants

  • pure elements will always have ΔHformation of 0 KJ/mol

New cards
50

Hess's Law

just cancel things out, reverse the signs if necessary, and add them all up

New cards
51

Entropy

ΔS = nΣΔSproducts - nΣΔSreactants

  • usually measured in J/mol*K

  • positive ΔS = increasing disorder (favorable)

  • negative ΔS = decreasing disorder

New cards
52

Factors That Affect Entropy

  1. temperature: higher temp = higher ΔS due to more molecular movement

  2. of particles: more moles = higher ΔS

  3. size of molecule: larger molecule = more atoms = higher ΔS due to more vibrational motion

  4. physical state: gas has highest ΔS

New cards
53

Gibbs Free Energy (all equations)

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

  • Gibbs is in KJ/mol so convert ΔS to KJ instead of J

ΔG = -RTln(K)

  • this R constant is 8.314 J/mol*K or 0.008314 KJ/mol*K

ΔG = nΣΔGproducts - nΣΔGreactants

-ΔG means spontaneous rxn & means K>1

+ΔG means nonspontaneous rxn & means K<1

New cards
54

Spontaneity Table

-ΔH and + ΔS = spontaneous @ all temps

+ΔH and -ΔS = nonspontaneous @ all temps

-ΔH and -ΔS = spontaneous only @ low temps

+ΔH and +ΔS = spontaneous only @ high temps

New cards
55

Reaction Quotient

Q = [C]^c[D]^d/[A]^a[B]^b

Q is unitless and measures the ratio of products to reactants at all conditions but equilibrium

New cards
56

Equilibrium Expression

Keq = [C]^c[D]^d/[A]^a[B]^b

Keq is unitless and measures the ratio of products to reactants at equilibrium

New cards
57

Rates of Rxn

basically slope; measured in M/s

New cards
58

Criteria for Rxn to Occur

  • particles must collide in order to react

  • particles must collide in correct orientation (Tetris)

  • particles must collide w/ enough energy to meet activation energy requirement

New cards
59

Rates of Rxn Graphs

activation energy: reactants to peak

ΔH: reactants to products

endo: reactants lower than products

exo: reactants higher than products

New cards
60

Factors Affecting Rxn Rate

  1. concentration: higher concentration = faster rxn

  2. temperature: higher temp = faster rxn

  3. surface area: exposing more surface area = faster rxn (basketball vs ping pong balls example)

  4. catalyst: adding a catalyst = faster rxn (duh)

    • catalyst lowers activation energy

New cards
61

Q < K

too many reactants! shift right to produce more products

New cards
62

Q > K

too many products! shift left to produce more reactants

New cards
63

negative ΔG correlates with:

spontaneous reaction more products than reactants present K > 1

New cards
64

positive ΔG correlates with:

nonspontaneous reaction more reactants than products present K < 1

New cards
65

Rate Laws

Rate (M/s) = k[A]^x[B]^y A and B are the concentration/molarity of the reactants x and y are the rate orders k is the rate constant with units dependent upon order

If the overall order (sum of x and y) is 0, the units of k are M/s

68

Integrated Rate Law for 0th Order:

[x] = -kt + [x]initial

New cards
69

Integrated Rate Law for 1st Order:

ln[x] = -kt + ln[x]initial

New cards
70

Integrated Rate Law for 2nd Order:

1/[x] = kt + 1/[x]initial

New cards
71

What do you use integrated rate laws for?

if you are only given time and concentration data and are asked to determine rate order
