Chapter 13 liquids Flashcards
What is sublimination?
A solid straight to a gas.
Example, Irene, dry ice, water vapor in freezer
What is sublimination
A gas changing to a solid without becoming a liquid. Such as water vapor in the winter on your windshield.
When do we call something a vapor vs a gas?
If it’s normally a liquid at room temperature, we call it a vapor
If it’s normally a gas at room temperature, we call it a gas
Average kinetic energy is also known as what
Temperature
A liquid is what
A state of matter with a definite volume, indefinite shape.
Exothermic reactions do what?
Liberate heat. From a gas to a solid.
Endothermic reactions do what?
Absorb heat
What happens in evaporation?
Particles at the SURFACE of a liquid with enough kinetic energy escape, and become a gas
Is evaporation a heating or cooling process?
Cooling. The particles with the highest average kinetic energy leave the liquid
particles left behind have lower average kinetic energy =lower temperature. Example sweat perspiration evaporating from skin leave the cooler. Rubbing alcohol.
What is volatile?
A substance that evaporates readily.
What is vapor pressure?
Pressure exerted by a vapor in a closed container in EQUILIBRIUM with its liquid. Molecules running into each other. 
What is equilibrium?
Dynamic condition where to opposing processes occur EQUAL RATES! NOT EQUAL AMOUNTS

Le Chateliers principal?
When stress is applied to a system in equilibrium, the system responds to relieve the stress and restore equilibrium 
What is the difference between evaporation and boiling?
Boiling happens under the surface. Evaporation happens at the surface.
The boiling point of a liquid is related to what?
It’s vapor pressure.
Boiling occurs when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the external pressure above the liquid.
Boiling=pressure in bubble=pressure in atmospheric air
If you’re at high altitude, do things boil and cook at a higher temperature or lower temperature?
High altitude equals low pressure. Boil at lower temperature and needs to cook longer.
What is the standard in atmosphere?
760 mmHG
What happens in a change in state?
1 the particles of a substance move differently with respect to each other
2 energy is required for a change in state. Energy either goes in or out of substance.
