Chemistry - terms

TermDefinition
electrolytic solution conducts electricity - contains ions
AVOGADRO NUMBER 1 mol = 6•10²³ atoms
Strong acids With Cl, HNO3, HBr, HI, H2SO4
Lattice Energy Energy released to put together (or separate) 2 ions that form a crystal. chargee of ions ⬆️, LE ⬆️ radius of atoms ⬆️, LE ⬇️ ⬇️ LE, ⬆️ soluble in water LE = (K•Q1•Q2) / R
Allotrope Different forms of an element; #O2 and O3; Carbon: diamond and graphite (conducts electricity)
Density d = m/v
Molarity M = mol/L (moles of solute / L of solution) Also called molar concentration
Molality (m) m = mol/kg (moles of solute / kg of solution)
Mole fraction
Xsolute = moles of solute / total moles of solution Xsolvent = moles of solvent / total moles of solution Xsolute + Xsolvent = 1 - useful when calculating partial pressure (Pa) given the total pressure (Pt) in a vessel -> Pa = Xa•Pt
Formula: Q = m•c•∆T Q = amount of heat (J) m = mass (g) c = specific heat capacity (J/g•°C) ∆T = variation of temperature (°C)
1atm 760mm Hg (1 Torr)
Amphoteric Can behave as acid (loses a proton = - H+) AND base (receives a proton = + H+)
Potential Energy Energy released when bonds are broken G > L > S - releases energy → exo → ⬆️PE - absorbs energy → endo → ⬇️PE (not really related to Temperature) - changes when the substance changes between physical states (when there's no temperature change)
n → atomic number (Z) X → element ~ → atomic mass n - number of p+ (if you use electron configuration, = the sum of "exponents" [e-]) atomic mass - molar mass of an element (1 mol of X has atomic mass Yg) "Weight"
Atomic radius (AR) Atom's size more levels, bigger less p+, bigger ↓← (increases like that on the periodic table)
Ionization energy (IE) Energy needed to REMOVE 1 e- →↑ (increases like that on the periodic table)
Electronegativity (EN) How well an atom can ATTRACT e- F O N Cl Br I S C P H + <———————————————— - →↑ (increases like that on the periodic table)
Electron affinity (EA) Energy absorbed or released when an e- is ADDED to an atom →↑ (increases like that on the periodic table)
Energy released to put together (or separate) 2 ions that form a crystal. LE = (K•Q1•Q2) / R #chargee of ions ⬆️, LE ⬆️ ____#radius of atoms ⬆️, LE ⬇️ ____#⬇️ LE, ⬆️ soluble in water
Litmus paper Basic - blue; acidic - red
Van't Hoff Factor (i) Number of particles that a compound breaks into when it dissolves in a solution. _____ ⬆️i ⬆️boiling/melting point___________ ∆T=Kb (constant) • M • i Examples: NaCl → Na+ + Cl- ≈> i=2;__AgNO3 → Ag+ + NO3- ≈> i=2
Entalphy ∆H = - → exo; ___ ∆H = + → endo
Activation Energy Difference between the reactants and the transition state. If it finishes higher than it started = ENDO; ___ if it finishes lower, EXO
Gibbs Free Energy ∆G = ∆H - T • ∆S (entalphy - temperature • entrophy) ∆G = - → spontaneous reaction; ___ ∆G = + → non spontaneous reaction
Vapor pressure Equilibrium (rate of evaporation of liquid = rate of condensation of gas) pressure of a vapor above its liquid. Factors that affect V.P.: #Temperature: ⬆️T, ⬆️ V.P ___ #Types of molecules: intermolecular forces ⬆️, VP⬇️; intermolecular forces ⬇️, VP⬆️
Le Chatelier's principle - equilibrium shift 1. Concentration: increase in one side, the equation "goes" to the other. _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._ 2. Temperature: ↑T - goes to ENDO +; ↓T - goes to EXO - 3. Pressure: ↑P - goes to less volume (smaller coef); ↓P - goes to bigger volume (bigger coef). _._._._._._._._._._._. 4. Catalyst: no shift!! Just makes faster! (Decreases Activation Energy)
Entrophy Degree of disorder Solids = ↓E; Gas = ↑E

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
