Q

Precision vs Accuracy

A

Precision is the degree of agreement between multiple measurements whereas accuracy is if the measurement is correct.
Precision indicates reproducibility–> whether or not you get the same result as last time
Accuracy indicates getting the center of the target, the correct value

Q

Thin layer chromatography

A

A silica plate is placed in a solvent with spots of the sample on the lower end of the paper.
The mobile phase runs up the stationary phase (the paper), causing the sample to be dragged along with it.
This results in separation of materials as they interact w the stationary phase differently.
The dot that goes higher up is more like the solvent as the solvent runs to the top of the paper.

A

In TLC, the RF is the ratio of how far substance A goes / how far the solution travels up the paper. A RF closer to one indicates a substance more like the solvent.

Q

Law Definite Proportions

A

Atoms combine in same ratio to form the same compound. Four atoms of lead combine w four atoms of sulfur to get four units of lead sulfide.
But if we had six atoms of sulfur, two atoms would be left.

Q

Law of Multiple Proportions

A

If the two compounds are composed of the same two elements, the masses of the second element that combine with one gram of the first element will always be in a ratio reducible to small whole numbers.
You can have CO or CO2, where the ratio of O in CO2 to CO is 2:1

Q

Dalton Atomic Theory

A
  1. Each element is composed of atoms
  2. Atoms of given element are identical (false, isotopes)
  3. Compounds are formed when different elements combine. A given compound always has the ratio of elements.
  4. A chemical reaction changes the arrangement or bonding of the atoms-doesn’t change the atoms (not true-redox)

Q

Sterling silver has silver and copper and silver.
If mass is 105 g and volume is 10.12 mL, calc mass percent of copper.
Density of copper is 8.96 g/mL
Density of silver is 10.5 g/mL

A

X+Y=1

8.96x + 10.5 y = density (105/10.12)

21
Q

Gay Lussac

A

At the same temperature and pressure, equal volumes of different gasses combine to form products.

22
Q

Avagadro’s Hypothesis

A

Equal volumes of gas at the same P and T have same numbers of particles

23
Q

JJ Thompson

A

Studied cathode ray tubes and when a high voltage was applied, a ray was produced. Ray was produced at negative electrode, measured a charge to mass ratio.
e/m = -1.76 * 10^8 C/g

24
Q

Cathode ray tube

A

Cathode rays deflected by applied electric field away from negative plate.
Different metals produce a beam that behaves rhe same way.
Proved negative charge.

25
Q

Thomson

A

Plum pudding model–
Positive pudding with negative electron plums throughout.
He postulated atoms had electrons and thus needed to have positive component in order to be neutral overall

26
Q

Millikan

A

Oil drop experiments to get magnitude of electron charge.

Got the mass of an electron– 9.11*10^-31 kg

27
Q

Rutherford

A

Used alpha particles to test plum pudding model
He found that rather than all of the positive charges going straight through, most of them did, but some were deflected at sharp angles and others at smaller angles off the nucleus. But most went through.
This showed there is a positive charged nucleus in the center

28
Q

The atom

A

Protons, neutrons, electrons
Positive center- dense, the nucleus.
Atomic number–#protons
Neutral – equal number protons and electrons

29
Q

Mass number

31
Q

Chlorine has 2 natural isotopes, chlorine 37 and chlorine 35

Anion adds the “-ide” at the end
For transition metals, write the charge in parenthesis
Iron (II) Sulfide

46
Q

Naming two non metals

A

Use prefixes

Carbon dioxide

47
Q

Naming acids

A

If the anion ends in “-ide” then it is hydro—ic acid
HCl–> Hydrochloric acid

If the anion ends with “ate,” then we change it to “-ic”
H2SO4 –> Sulfuric acid

If the anion ends with “ite,” then change it to “-ous”
H2SO3 –> Sulfurous Acid

48
Q

Mass spectrometry

A

Method that is used to compare masses of atoms
Atoms, molecules, or compounds are passed into a beam of high-speed electrons
Electrons knock electrons off the species and generate positive ions
Applied field accelerates ions into a magnetic field
The accelerating ion will produce its own magnetic field and the interaction between the fields will influence the cation’s path
Change in path is dependent on the mass of the cation– allowing for separation of ions of different sizes
A detector plate records where ions hit relative to each other, allowing for everyone accurate relative masses

49
Q

A
