Endothermic Reaction → draw graph
Energy absorbed(used)
system gets cooler
Energy needed
reactants + heat → product
Exothermic Reaction → draw graph
Energy Released
System gets warmer
Energy originally stored in + heat
Change in Enthalpy Equation
ΔH = Product - Reactant
Predicting Products (steps)
Break apart the compound (A2O3 → Al + O)
Diatomic elements must add a subscript of 2 (Al + O2)
Collision Theory
The reactants have to collide
the reactants have to collide with each other with enough amount of energy (activation energy)
The reactants should have the right orientation (position) when colliding.
How to determine the limiting and excess reactants
For each reactant calculate the amount of product formed (moles/grams)
the smaller answer indicates the limiting reactants and amount of product formed
The smaller product amount (grams, moles, etc.) is the theoretical yield.
molarity equation
M = mol/L
Formula for dilution
M1V1 = M2V2
Catalysts in chemical reactions
Adding a catalyst can speed up a chemical reaction
lowers activation energy = collisions are more efficient.
Speeding up chemical reaction (4 ways)
Concentration/Molarity (more molecules = more collisions)
Temperature (Faster molecule = more collisions)
Surface Area (more molecules exposed = more collisions)
Catalyst
Acids
Contain Hydrogen(H+) ions
Taste sour
corrosive to metals
low pH

Hydronium
water + proton (H+) → Ho3O+
H3O+ is interchangeable with H+
Self Ionization of Water
water is polar
There are equal amount of hydrogen & oxygen
The reaction can be written as H2O + H2O <-→ H3O(aq) + OH-(aq)
Arrhenius Acid

endpoint
When the indicator changes color & it should be close to the equivalence point
Acid base titration
The slow addition of one solution of a known concentration to a known volume of another solution of unknown concentration until the reaction reaches neutralization.
Acid base neutralization
All acid-base reactions are neutralization reactions, which produce an ionic compound(salt) and water.
“the stoichiometric point of titration”
The point at which moles of H+ ions from the acid=moles of OH- from the base.
percent yield formula
[actual yield (from an experiment)/theoretical yield] x 100
intermolecular force
As the intermolecular force gets stronger, more energy is required to break the forces holding molecules together. In other words, more energy is needed to melt solid or boil liquid.
vapor pressure
vapor collects above the liquid and exerts pressure on the surface of the liquid.
When does liquid boil
when vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure
atmospheric pressure = 1 atm = 760 torr = 101.3 kPa
stronger the intermolecular force..
lower the vapor pressure at a given temperature
different intermolecular forces…

Chromatography
Separates chemical species by taking advantage of the differential strength of IMF’s between and among the components of the solution(the mobile phases) and with the surface components of the stationary phase.
The stationary phase
either a solid or a liquid supported by a solid
The mobile phase
the solvent
relative attraction
the relative attraction that each component of the solution has for the mobile phase (solvent) will allow you to separate each of the solutes in a mixture
