AP Chemistry

forgotten facts

TermDefinition
Addition/Subtraction SigFigs line up decimal points, last sig fig is column in which all digits in column are significant
Multiplication/Division SigFigs same number of sig figs as factor with fewest sig figs
Naming binary ionic compounds cation + anion" ide"
roman numerals in naming compounds represent charge of transition metal
naming covalent compounds prefix of first element name (except mono) + first element + prefix of second element + second element"ide"
Coulombic Attraction determinants charge difference, distance between attracted particles
Microwave spectroscopy molecular rotation
infrared spectroscopy molecular vibrations and types of bonds (double, single, triple)
uv spectroscopy electron transitions between energy levels
ionization energy exceptions Be has higher ionization energy than B N has higher ionization energy than O
Electron affinity energy change when an atom gains an electron; elements that are more likely to gain electrons have greater electron affinities
high melting point strong bond
ionic compound structure lattice, brittle, transferred electrons
covalent compound structure discrete, independent molecule, shared electrons
Metallic compound structure conduct electricity, flexible bonds, delocalized electrons
Interstitial alloy atoms of different radii, higher density than pure metal, less malleable
Substitutional alloy atoms of same radii, density between two different pure metals, still malleable
sigma bond single bond, stronger than pi bond
pi bond added to sigma bond to form double and triple bonds, prevents rotation around bonds
bond order calculated by averaging bond orders in a molecule, higher bond order means stronger bond and more stable molecule
covalent network solids diamond, graphite (soft), SiO2, SiC, boron nitride BN
ideal gas law molecules do not interact with each other, weaker IMF's mean more ideal gas (particles slide pass each other because of KE)
Acid or Water first? Always add ACID to WATER just like you otter :)
how soluble will something be? based on IMF's. H2O can hydrogen bond with itself so things that only do LDF will dissolve in other things that can only do LDF
ionization rules no solid liquid or gas; ionic compound solutions and ammonium ionize; strong acids ionize
strong acids HCl, HBr, HI, HNO3, HClO4, H2SO4
percent error (experimental - theoretical) / theoretical
percent yield experimental / theoretical
will products dissolve? sodium, potassium, ammonium, and nitrate compounds will be aqueous and ionize
H2CO3 automatically forms H2O and CO2
oxidation state exceptions O in peroxide is -1, H when bonded to metals is -1
Combustion of Hydrocarbons produces CO2 and H2O (combustion is redox with oxygen
decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide 2H2O2 produces 2H2O and O2
Determinants of Reaction Rates Concentration, Surface Area, Temperature (KE), Catalysts
enthalpy of Fusion/Vaporization Multiply enthalpy of Fusion/Vaporization by number of mols
enthalpy equation enthalpy = -q / mol rxn
bond enthalpies bond energies of bonds broken are positive (endothermic), bond energies of bonds that are formed are negative (exothermic)

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.
