Question | Answer |
---|---|
Solute | what is being dissolved |
Solvent | what is doing the dissolving |
Solution | solute + solvent |
Solubility | amount of solute a solution can dissolve |
What is the equation for Molarity? | moles solute/volume of solution |
What is the equation for Mass Percent? | mass of solute/mass of solution x 100 |
What is the equation for Dilutions? | C1V1 = C2V2 |
What is the specific heat of water? | 4.184 J/g C |
Exothermic | process or reaction in which the surroundings absorb energy from the system |
Endothermic | process or reaction in which the system absorbs energy from the surroundings |
An electron is QUANTIZED which means: | it has a certain distance is must remain from the nucleus |
As wavelength decreases, energy... | increases |
As wavelength increases, energy... | decreases |
Constructive Interference | two waves, that are in sync with one another, will collide and reinforce each other |
Destructive Interference | two waves, that are NOT in sync with one another, will collide and cancel out |
What is the equation for specific heat? | q = sm(delta)T |
What is the basic idea behind wave-particle duality? | all matter exhibits both wave and particle properties |
What is electronegativity? | the strength of the pull of atoms |
What does VSEPR stand for? | Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion |
Explain the VSEPR theory. | Everything in a molecule bends away from an unshared pair of electrons |
Which elements are allowed to break the octet rule? | Any elements in or below the 3rd row on the periodic table, as well as Boron. |
What are the three intermolecular forces, from weakest to strongest? | London, Dipole-Dipole, Hydrogen Bonding |
What are the two basic rules for Hydrogen Bonding to occur? | A Hydrogen molecule must be present. The other molecule must be Oxygen, Nitrogen, or Fluoride. |
What is the hydronium ion? | H3O |
Amphoteric | substances that can be an acid or a base, depending on what it's reacting with |
Conjugate Acid | base after doing its job |
Conjugate Base | acid after doing its job |
Acid + Base = | Salt + Water |
Acid + Metal Carbonate = | Salt + Water + CO2 |
Acid + Metal Bicarbonate = | Salt + Water + CO2 |
Buffer | protects the pH of a solution |
Equilibrium | the condition where both reactions occur at the same rate |
Dynamic Equilibrium | concentrations remain constant but the individual atoms can switch places |
What is the Collision Theory? | explanation as to why reactions occur |
What are the 3 principles of the Collision Theory? | 1. molecules/atoms are in constant motion and will interact with one another (collide) 2. molecules/atoms must posses a certain minimum energy (activation energy) 3. molecules/atoms must have proper orientation |
What is Le Chatelier's Principle? | disturbing a reaction at equilibrium will force it to alter itself to compensate for that disturbance |
