Term
Definition
Dispersion Force   An instantaneous dipole on any one helium atom induces instantaneous dipoles on neighboring atoms, which then attract one another (a mini chain reaction).  
🗑
Hydrogen Bonding   When H bonds to F, O, or N, the charge is huge and the attraction is strong.  
🗑
Ion-Dipole Attraction   Ions from an ionic compound are attracted to the dipole of polar molecules.  
🗑
The Concept of Condensation   Some molecules in vapor will lose energy through molecular collisions. Some molecules get captured back into the liquid when they collide with it. Some may stick together and form droplets of liquid.  
🗑
Volatile Liquids   Liquids that evaporate easily.  
🗑
Nonvolatile Liquids   Liquids that do not evaporate easily.  
🗑
Heat of Vaporization (DHvap)   The amount of heat energy.  
🗑
Vapor Pressure   The pressure exerted by the vapor when it's in dynamic equilibrium with its liquid.  
🗑
Boiling Point   The temperature required to have the vapor pressure of the liquid = 1 atm.  
🗑
Sublimation   When surface molecules with sufficient energy may break free from the surface and become a gas.  
🗑
Deposition   The capturing of vapor molecules into a solid.  
🗑
Heat of Fusion (DHfus)   The amount of heat energy required to melt one mole of a solid.  
🗑
Triple Point   The temperature/pressure conditions where all three states exist simultaneously.  
🗑
Crystalline Solids   Have a very regular geometric arrangement of their particles.  
🗑
X-Ray Diffraction   Determines the arrangement of particles and the distances between them.  
🗑
Crystal Lattice   The arrangement of the particles in a crystalline solid.  
🗑
Unit Cell   The smallest unit that shows the pattern of arrangement for all particles.  
🗑
Energy Band   When a large number of molecular orbitals have approximately the same energy.  
🗑
Band Theory   Energy bands are formed when the structures of metals and covalent network solids result in every atom's orbital being shared by the entire structure.  
🗑
Translational Freedom   The ability to move from one position in space to another.  
🗑
Rotational Freedom   The ability to reorient a particle's direction in space.  
🗑
Vibrational Freedom   The ability to oscillate about a particular point in space.  
🗑
Crystalline Solids   Have their particles arranged in an orderly geometric pattern (salt and diamonds).  
🗑
Amorphous Solids   Have particles that do not show a regular geometric pattern over a long range (plastic and glass).  
🗑
The Concept of London Dispersion Forces   Fluctuations in the electron distribution of atoms and molecules result in temporary dipole. Regions with excess electron density have partial (-) charges. Regions with excess electron density have partial (+) charges. It's the force that results.  
🗑
Viscosity   Resistance of a liquid to flow  
🗑
Supercritical Fluid   At some temperature, the meniscus between the liquid and vapor disappears and the states commingle to form a supercritical fluid.  
🗑
Critical Temperature   The temperature needed to form a supercritical fluid.  
🗑
Critical Pressure   The pressure needed to form a supercritical fluid.  
🗑
Lattice Point   Each particle in a unit cell.  
🗑
Coordination Number   The number of other particles each particle is in contact with.  
🗑
Packing Efficiency   Percentage of volume in the unit cell occupied by particles.  
🗑
Molecular Solids   Solids whose composite particles are molecules.  
🗑
Ionic Solids   Solids whose composite particles are ions.  
🗑
Atomic Solids   Solids whose composite particles are atoms.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
