Q

Why can gas be liquified ( under the right conditions)?

A

In ideal gas there are no intermolecular forces so particles are not attracted to each other whereas the in real gas attractive intermolecular forces divert the paths of particles.

Q

What is Boyle’s law?

A

At constant temperature (T) the volume (V) of a fixed mass of gas is said to be inversely proportional to the pressure (p) applied to it
P x V= constant

Q

What is the absolute zero temperature and how was it proved?

A

-273.15*C
FOUND by plotting volumes of most gases against temp and extrapolating which shows that they all reach zero volume at the same temperature

16
Q

Define empirical formula?

A

The simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element that are in a compound

17
Q

What is theoretical yield?

A

The expected quantity of a product from a perfect chemical reaction

18
Q

Define Actual yield ?

A

The actual amount of product produced after a reaction

19
Q

What is the formula to calculate percentage yield?

A

Percentage yield = (actual yield/ theoretical yield ) x 100

20
Q

What is percentage atom economy?

A

A way to compare the maximum mass of a product that can be obtained with the mass of the reactants

21
Q

What is the formula for percentage atom economy?

A

PAC= (molecular mass of desired product/ sum of molecular masses for all reactants) x 100

22
Q

Define spectator ions?

A

Ions that appear unchanged on both sides of the ionic equations

23
Q

How do you calculate conc with moles and volume?

A

Conc= moles/vol

24
Q

What is a volumetric solution and how do you make it?

A

A solution where the precise conc is known.
Calculate the Mf then dissolve a known volume of the solution which will be the conc
