CHEM 132 FINAL

QuestionAnswer
what does enthalpy combine internal energy and work (total heat content of the system)
how is enthalpy a state function? it describes the state of a system
what is heat? a description of change. the path that the change takes can change the heat transferred
what is true at constant pressure with heat and enthalpy? q = delta H
what is hess's law? regardless if the multiple stages/steps of a rxn, the total enthalpy change for the rxn is the sum of all changes
what is true for work if volume is constant? no work is done
difference between delta G and delta G naught delta G: spontaneity of a rxn delta G naught: free energy change of a rxn at STP
what is true about delta G when delta H < 0 and delta S < 0? -delta G < 0 at low temps (spontaneous) -delta G > 0 at high temps
what is true about delta G when delta H < 0, delta S > 0? delta G <0 at any temp (spontaneous)
what is true about delta G when delta H > 0, delta S > 0? -delta G < 0 at high temps (spontaneous) -delta G > 0 at low temps
what is true about delta G when delta H > 0, delta S < 0? delta G > 0 at any temp (non-spontaneous)
molar solubility moles of dissolved solute/L of saturated solution (units are usually in M)
how to tackle solubility problems -write out dissociation rxn and Ksp expression -if question gives gram solubility, convert to molarity
polyatomic ions (5 you don't know) NH4+, CO3 2-, NO2- (nitrite), PO4 3-, SO3 2- (sulfite)
acids proton donor. after donating, it becomes a conjugate base. since it loses positive charge, it becomes negatively charged
bases proton acceptor. after accepting, it becomes a conjugate acid. since it gains positive charge, it's now positively charged.
start of titration curve only weak acid/weak base in solution, Ka/Kb dictates pH
halfway point titration curve half of the weak acid/base has been neutralized by the addition of strong base/acid/turned into conj. base/acid. [HA] = [A-]. pH = pKa, acid dictates pH
equivalence point of titration curve all acid/base has been neutralized by addition of strong base/acid. only conj. base/acid remains, Kb/Ka dictates pH
what does a strong acid/base react with in titrations? weak acid/base in solution, NOT WATER
how do strong bases/acids react? stoichiometrically. find the limiting reagent, tells what's leftover in solution
what to do if there's leftover weak acid/base in solution use ICE table to find pH
what to do if there's leftover strong acid/base in solution they fully dissociate, no ICE table needed
what is a buffer composed of? weak conj. acid/base pair
how to make a buffer? salt and titration
what is the buffer capacity? the amount of acid or base that can be added before the pH changes drastically (greater concentration, greater buffer capacity)
how to approach buffer problems (4 steps) 1) determine what rxn is happening 2) use HH equation to figure out [] of buffer components 3) acid will react with conj. base (will dec.), making acid (will inc.) 4) if asking for pH, use Ka and ICE table
what is an alt. question asked for buffers? make a buffer with a specific pH, and give a list of possible reagent (take in account TOTAL VOLUME when calculating molarity)
rate of rxn depends on... how often molecules collide, colliding at the right angles, how much energy for collisions, etc.
what do rate laws tell us? gives us info about how we can speed up/slow down rxns
order of the rxn tells us how dependent the rate of the rxn is on the [ ] of the reactant
