Chem 106 Assessment2

TermDefinition
rate amount of change in something per unit of time
factors affecting how fast reactions occur (4) surface area/physical state concentration temperature catalysts
instantaneous rate of change tangent line to the point of interest rate at one specific moment
average rate of change rate over a time interval determined by comparing initial and final states
average rate of appearance products
average rate of disappearance reactants
rate of reaction ratio -1/(stoichiometry coefficient)*rate of disappearance - REACTANTS 1/(stoichiometry coefficient)+rate of appearance - PRODUCTS
integrated rate law change in reactant concentration with time
rate is proportional to concentration
m n m+n m and n are orders m+n --> overall reaction order
half-lives interval in which the concentration of a reactant decreases by half
zero order rate does not depend on concentration at all rate = k
first order rate depends on the amount of one reactant
pseudo first order A+B-->C make B so concentrated A doesn't even matter so it is more like B-->C
second order rate depends on the square of one reactant, or two different reactants
first and zero order have ____ slope graphs negative -k
second order has a _____ slope graph positive k
collision theory: what conditions facilitate a rxn collide oriented correctly enough energy/heat to react
Activation Energy (Ea) minimum energy that reactant molecules need to collide and react
Activated Complex (or Transition Stat or intermediate) temporary, unstable arrangement of atoms at the top of that hill
only a fraction of atoms have enough energy to react f= e^-Ea/RT
arrhenius equation (both ways) k=Ae^-Ea/RT lnk=-Ea/RT + lnA
as temp increases, k increases which means the rate increases
low activation energy = fastest reaction (because it's easier to get over that barrier)
elementary step one single step written exactly as it happened, cannot be broken further rate law can be written directly from it
reaction mechanism combo of two elementary steps
molecularity number of reacting atoms/molecules in a step
catalyst substance added to a reaction that increases the rate but is not consumed in the process
intermediate produced in one step of the reaction but consumed in a later step
homogenous catalyst exists in the same phase as reactants
heterogenous catalyst different phase than reactants
unimolecular bimolecular termolecular unimolecular - one reactant bimolecular - 2 reactants termolecular - 3 reactants (very rare, can assume multiple steps)
write rate law A--> D rate = k [A]
write rate law A+A--> B rate = k [A]^2
write rate law A+B--> C rate= k [A][B]

write rate law A--> D rate = k [A]
write rate law A+A--> B rate = k [A]^2
write rate law A+B--> C rate= k [A][B]
catalysis catalyst lowers activation energy (kind of makes two smaller activation energies) to speed up reaction
the mechanism step with the slowest rate is called the rate limiting or rate determining law
you can't use intermediates in rate laws so if you have a fast initial step you have to assume equilibrium forward = reverse
"nuclear strong force" holds pp np and nn together
unstable nuclei - radionuclides are unstable and so spontaneously emit particles and EM to become stable
nuclear decay unstable nucleus changes into a more stable one by releasing raditation
alpha decay a releases 2 protons and 2 neutrons (He atom) travels 1 inch
beta emission releases an electron (so a neutron turns into a proton) travels several feet
gamma radiation releases electromagnetic energy travels 10-100 ft
electron capture a proton absorbs an electron and turns into a neutron
positron emission proton turns into neutron - so a positron is emitted
positron an electron's mass, but a positive charge
a 4He 2
B 0e -1
EC 0e -1 (on the side of reactants)
PE 0e 1
nuclei with 84 protons or above are unstable, because they are so big and have so many nucleons
above belt of stability too many neutrons beta emission to turn back into protons
below belt of stability too many protons PE or EC to turn neutrons into protons
above 84 protons alpha decay (2 neutrons and 2 protons)
carbon dating n from sun bombard the earth and hit N and become C-14 live plants take the C-14 and slowly decays by beta decay back into N
mass defect calculation (static) between sum of nucleon masses and a nucleus sum of individual nucleon masses - nucleus mass
binding energy energy required to separate nucleons missing mass = energy holding them together
mass defect calculation (dynamic) between parent cell and separate daughter cells final product masses (daughters) - initial reactant mass (parent)
fission slow n enters nucleus making it unstable nucleus splits releasing neutrons and energy
fusion small nuclei fusing into a larger one goes from very unstable to very stable - releases a ton of energy
radioactive decay is always first order
activity disentegrations/second
tritium decay decay of the radioactive version of H -3H
geiger counter used to detect radioactivity by clicking (ions in gas make an electric pulse)
alpha particles cant get through paper/skin
beta particles can't get through muscle/bone/lead
gamma rays can't get through cement
not all radiation is dangerous and radioactive isotopes are found in nature
ways to monitor a chemical change over time (4) pressure concentration conductivity/ions absorption of color/light
TEST TIPS read the question how many times? twice! one to get the story/general idea twice to really pay attention for what they give and why they are asking
TEST TIPS explain how to draw on the question cross off anything distracting/unimportant box useful numbers and label what variable they are circle what they are asking and put in the correct units
TEST TIPS how far to round? how precise? just round all the way! go to the end!
two different elements have different molar masses take that into account when using two elements in a ratio
pay attention to units ms is not the same as s
micro -6
nano -9
pico -12
femto -15
Mega 6
giga 9
tera 12
peta 15
NH3 ammonia
NH4+ ammonium ion
O2 2- peroxide
OH- hydroxide
H3O+ hydronium
CN- cyanide
SCN- thiocyanate
S2O3 2- thiosulfate
