Q

What makes lattice enthalpies more negative?

A

Higher charge density of ion:
Higher charge - means ions attract each other more strongly
Smaller radius - ions can come closer together

Q

How does the charge density affect enthalpy change of hydration?

A

Larger charge density = More exothermic
More charged = attract water mols more strongly
Smaller = Get closer to water mols
therefore, greater attraction between ions and water mols

Q

Solubility of ionic lattice in non-polar solvents (hexane)?

A

No soluble

the mols in solvent not charged so unable to interact with ions

20
Q

Describe global warming?

A

1 - UV + Visible light radiation from sun hits earth, heating it
2 - This is re-emitted by earth as IR
3 - This IR is absorbed by greenhouse gases causing vibrations of bonds within mols
4 - These gases then transmit vibrational E to neighboring mols
5 - Some IR remitted to earth, heating it
6 - Causes global warming

21
Q

What happens to the Infared energy once it’s absorbed by greenhouse gases?

A

1 - Increase vibrational E of molecules so bonds vibrate more.
- The vibrational E can then be transferred to other mols by collisions
- This increases mols KE, increasing T of air
2 - Some infrared emitted to earth or into space

22
Q

What is the IR window?

A

The wave length of infrared radiation that water vapour does not absorb

23
Q

How does water vapour regulate earth’s temp?

A

1 - Less infrared radiation absorbed

2 - More emitted to space

24
Q

issue with Co2?

A

1 - Absorbs infrared at same WL as the IR window
- Therefore infrared radiation that would have passed through atmosphere now absorbed
2 - CO2 raises temps
- therefore more water vapour
- therefore more radiation absorbed

25
What is the Bronsted Lowry theory of acids and bases?
Acids proton donors | Bases proton acceptors
26
Conjugate acid-base pair?
Conjugate base = ion of an acid that acts as a base + accepts H+ to form the acid Conjugate acid = acid formed from this
27
How can the position of an equilibrium tell you about the strength of an acid?
further to right = stronger acid
28
What buffer?
A solution which resists a change in pH for small additions of acid/alkali
29
How do buffers work?
1 - Weak acid reacts with OH-, preventing sol. becoming more alkaline 2 - Salt reacts with H+, preventing sol. becoming more acidic
30
What is a buffer sol. made of?
Weak acid + it's salt | Weak base + it's salt
31
=What are the two assumptions made in order to describe how a buffer works?
``` Assumption 1: - All A- ions come from salt - The Weak acid, HA, supplies very few A- compared to salt Assumption 2: - Almost All HA remains unchanged ```
32
Why is a weak acid and a salt needed in a buffer sol?
weak acid - acts as source of H+ | salt - acts as a sink for H+ ions
33
What happens when alkali added?
1 - Alkali removes H+ 2 - H+ regenerated from HA 3 - pH re-established
34
What do the conc. of the acid and alkali need to be in buffer?
Similar, so can equally resist addition of acid/alkali
35
How does water effect buffer?
1 - conc. of acid and salt equally reduced therefore ph not effected
36
What kind of gas is CO2?
Acidic
37
What is Ksp?
- Constant which describes the solubility of a product | - The solubility product
38
Two outcomes regarding Ksp when ions are mixed together?
- The value of the ions concentration multiplied is greater than Ksp = then compound will precipitate out of sol - The value is less/equal to Ksp = ions will remain in sol (are soluble)
39
What is entropy?
A measure of the number of ways of arranging molecules and distributing energy
40
When is entropy change positive vs negative?
``` Positive = products more disordered than reactants (e.g solid --> gas) (therefore products have higher entropy than reactants) Negative = reactants more disordered than products (e.g gas --> solid) ```
41
How does state of a substance link to the entropy?
Gases + more complex mols = highest entropy Liquids = 2nd highest Solids + Giant covalent/lattice = Lowest entropy
42
Units of entropy?
JK-1mol-1
43
What is the chemical system?
products and reactants
44
What increases entropy change of system?
Increasing temp
45
Entropy of mixture compared to two separate things?
1 - entropy mixture higher
