Description and Tags

71 Terms

1

New cards
4
double replacement/double displacement (9)

5
combustion (9)

identify the reaction type and use general formula
New cards
7
to convert moles to particles (10)

13
5 points of kinetic theory (12)
  1. gas is made of particles

  2. all particles move in constant random motion

  3. all collisions are elastic

  5. larger molecules move slower than smaller ones at the same temperature

New cards
14

15
SI unit for pressure (12)
atm
New cards
16
STP (12)

New cards
17
absolute zero (12)
point where you have no energy
New cards
18
how is kinetic energy related to temperature? (12)
at higher temperatures there is a wide range of energies, and at lower temperatures the range of kinetic energy is close to the same
New cards
19
how is pressure affected by altitude? (12)
air exerts pressure because of gravity and decreases as you go up in elevation
New cards
20
evaporation (12)
process of turning liquid to vapor (open vessel)

cooling process
New cards
21
vaporization (12)
conversion of a liquid to a gas or vapor

warming process
New cards
22
vapor pressure (12)
force exerted by a gas above a liquid

helps prevent evaporation and boiling
New cards
23
boiling point (12)
the temperature at which a liquid boils

with altitude, boiling point lowers because it needs less kinetic energy
New cards
24
melting point (12)
temperature that a solid turns into a liquid
New cards
25
crystals (12)
solid, orderly, repeating structure
New cards
26
crystal allotropes (12)
carbon = graphite is thin sheets

diamond = tetrahedral shape, rigid compact array

buchminster fullerine = 60 carbon hollow sphere
New cards
27
amorphous solid (12)
solid that does not form crystals
New cards
28
sublimation (12)
changing from a solid to a vapor without changing into a liquid
New cards
29
variables that describe a gas (13)
pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles
New cards
30
Boyle’s law (13)
(pressure - volume relationship) at constant temperature the volume of a gas varies inversely with pressure
New cards
31
Charles’s law (13)
(temperature - volume relationship) at constant pressure the volume of a gas is directly proportional with temperature
New cards
32
Gay-Lussac’s law (13)
(temperature - pressure relationship) at constant volume pressure is directly proportional to Kelvin temperature of gas
New cards
33
combined gas law (13)
using the three gas la ( ws we are able to see that there is a relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature

hold one of three variables constant
New cards
34
ideal gas law (13)
has 3 of the variables that act on a gas

increase in moles = increase in pressure and volume
New cards
35
Dalton’s law (13)
at constant volume and temperature total pressure exerted by a mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of component gases
New cards
36
Graham’s law of effusion (13)
the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass

gases of lower molar mass effuse faster
New cards
37
solution (14)
mixture of small particles
New cards
38

New cards
42
colloid (14)
mixture of intermediate sized particles
New cards
43
solubility (14)
amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent (higher temp = more solubility)
New cards
44
unsaturated (14)
more solute can dissolve in the substance but if more is added it disappears
New cards
45
saturated (14)
no more solute can dissolve but if more is added will sink to the bottom
New cards
46
supersaturated (14)
special situation where solvent holds more solute than it should and requires a series of steps to create

New cards
59

60
relationship between directly proportional and inversely proportional (13)
inversely proportional has one that goes up and goes down and directly proportional has either both go up or both go down
New cards
61
how to differentiate between colloid and suspension (14)
suspension has multiple phases and colloids have one

colloid uses the tyndall effect and suspension does not
New cards
62
what is conserved in a reaction (11)
mass and particles
New cards
63
