Q

How do you identify a neutral salt?

A

Neutral salts are neutral because they contain neither of conjugate acids of weak bases or conjugate bases of weak bases. Neutral salts are typically formed from neutralisation between strong acids and strong bases. Other examples of neutral salts include: Potassium chloride.

Q

What is the Lewis Acid Definition?

A

A compound or ionic species which can accept an electron pair from a donor compound. A Lewis acid is therefore any substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor.

Q

What is a Buffer and what makes it?

A

A buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components. It is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, thus maintaining the pH of the solution relatively stable. It is made with a weak acid/base with its conjugate.

Q

Strong acid and Weak acid which is more prevalent and why?

27
What is Nuclear Fission?
Atoms are split apart (releases energy)
28
What is Nuclear Fusion?
Two light atomic nuclei combine to form a single heavier one.
29
What is Transmutation?
Make a new particle, change atomic number
30
What is Fissile?
Able to undergo fission
31
What kind of number are you looking for with a standard reduction potential? And with electrolytic?
Most positive # and electrolytic can be negative
32
Galvanic and Voltaic
Are the same and both positive
33
What is Le Chateliers principle?
Le Châtelier's principle states that if a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to reestablish an equilibrium.
34
What is an oxidation number?
The oxidation number is a number assigned to elements to show how many electrons were lost or gained. A positive number means electrons were lost. A negative number means electrons were gained. the hypothetical charge of an atom if all of its bonds to other atoms were fully ionic.
35
Reducing Agent
Is most negative reduction potential
36
Oxidizing Agent
Is most positive reducation potential
37
Exothermic
Reactants have more energy
38
Endothermic
Products have more energy
39
K>1 K<1 K=1
More product, less product, equilibrium
40
What impacts volume?
Increase moles of gas
41
When does Kc=Kp
If concentration of gases are same (moles of gas)
42
If you double the equation what do you do to K
Square it

45

Concentration vs time
46
What is collision theory?
a principle of chemistry used to predict the rates of chemical reactions. It states that when suitable particles of the reactant hit each other with the correct orientation, only a certain amount of collisions result in a perceptible or notable change; these successful changes are called successful collisions.
47
What does increases temp do to a reaction
Increases rate of reaction and successful collisions.
48
Real Gas
Particles have volume Energy is lost in collisions Intermolecular forces
49
Ideal gas
Particles have no volume Collisions are elastic No interactions between particles
50
How do you solve a first order half life reaction?
T(1/2)=0.693/k
51
What is a Buffer?
A buffer is a weak conjugate acid-base pair that is able to absorb H+ or OH- without changing pH very much
52
How do you determine 1st rate law?
If the effect on the rate and the change in concentration are the same
53
What is an intermediate?
A reaction intermediate is a chemical species that is formed in one elementary step and consumed in a subsequent step.
54
How do you determine rate?
The slowest step in a reaction mechanism is known as the rate-determining step. The rate-determining step limits the overall rate and therefore determines the rate law for the overall reaction.
55
What is a Catalyst?
A catalyst lowers the activation energy. In a reaction you start and end with it.
56
What does a negative delta H tell you?
Thermodynamically favorable (exothermic)
57
Activation Energy is
The minimum amount of energy that is required to activate atoms or molecules to a condition in which they can undergo chemical transformation.
58
What is the least harmful (nuclear)
Alpha, least penetrating
59
What is the most harmful (nuclear)?
Gamma, penetrating
60
What did the two numbers mean in nuclear?
Bottom number identifies element while the top number is mass
61
What is the specific heart equation?
q=mc(delta T)
62
What are London Dispersion Forces?
is the weakest intermolecular force. The London dispersion force is a temporary attractive force that results when the electrons in two adjacent atoms occupy positions that make the atoms form temporary dipoles.
63
What is Hydrogen Bonding
A storing intermolecular interaction between a hydrogen atom bound to O, N or F and lone pairs
64
How do you know if something has a higher boiling point?
Bigger the molecule the higher the boiling point
65
What is Vapor Pressure
Vapour pressure is a measure of the tendency of a material to change into the gaseous or vapour state, and it increases with temperature.
66
Tripple Point
A-C deposition C-A sublimation B-C freezing
67
Change in temp freezing and boiling equation
Delta T=K(f/b)mi Concentration x morality x number of ions
68
What chains dissolve in water easier?
Shorter (higher entropy)
