(42 cards)
Atomic number
The number of protons in an atom
Mass number
Mass of all protons + neutrons in an atom
What property is the energy carried by photons most directly associated with?
Frequency
Definition of a heterogeneous mixture
A mixture with non-uniform composition
Definition of a homogeneous mixture
A mixture with uniform composition
Nano
10^9
Micro
10^6
Mega
10^-6
What is an orbital node?
An area around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is greater than zero
What is a net ionic equation?
An equation including only the molecules that are actively involved in a reaction, that are changed by the reaction. Excludes spectator ions
What is entropy a measure of?
How energy is distributed in a system. Units: J/K
How do you find velocity if given wavelength and frequency?
velocity = (wavelength)(frequency)
How do you calculate the energy of electrons in a hydrogen atom?
E = -(Rydberg energy)/(n^2)
Rydberg energy is given on the sheet, n is the principle electron orbital quantum number (1 for hydrogen)
How do you calculate the change in energy caused by an electron transitioning across different electron shells/levels (Bohr model rings)?
delta E = -(Rydberg energy)(Z/n - Z/n)
This one is given on the sheet
Z = atomic number
n = principle electron orbital quantum number
How do you calculate the specific heat of something if given the mass and temperature change from a calorimetric experiment?
qA = -qB
(C)(m)(Tf - Ti) = - (C)(m)(Tf - Ti)
The left and right sides of the equation describe two different substances, the ones the heat was transferred to in the experiment. Each has a different C (specific heat capacity)
m is mass, T is temp
How do you calculate the work done on a system?
w = - (P)(delta V)
w = delta E - delta H
How do you calculate partial pressures for compounds in a solution?
Pvap = ∑ (mole fraction)(partial pressure)
Remember that mole fraction is the moles of solute over total moles in solution
What do weaker IMFs mean for vapor pressure and boiling point?
Higher vapor pressure, lower boiling point
What do stronger IMFs mean for vapor pressure and boiling point?
Lower vapor pressure, higher boiling point
Which has more potential energy, the heat of fusion or the heat of vaporization?
Heat of vaporization
What predicts spontenaity?
Delta G, NOT delta S!
