25
mixing, combining solvent particles is always what kind of process
exothermic
26
what is enthalpy of solution
sum of changes in enthalpy
27
what is heat of hydration
enthalpy change that occurs when 1 mol of gas solute ions is dissolved in water
28
heat of hydration is always largely what for ionic compounds
largely exothermic due to strong ion-dipole interactions
29
if the heat of solute is less than heat of hydration, what is the process
exothermic
30
if the energy requried to separate the solute into its constituent ions is greater than the energy given off when the ions are hydrated, what is the process
endothermic
31
what temperature are endothermic solutions to the touch
cool
32
what is reached when rates of dissolution and recrystallization have become equal
dynamic equillibrium
33
what is a saturated solution
dissolved solute is in dynamic equilibrium with the solid (undissolved) solute
34
what is a supersaturated solution
solutions containing more than the equilibrium amount of solute
35
what generally happens to supersaturated solutions after a time
excess solute normally precipitates out of solution
36
what effect does increasing temperature have on the solubility of solids
solubility increases
37
what is recrystallization
way to purify a solid
38
how does recrystallization work?
crystalline structure tends to reject impurities
39
what two things is the solubility of a gas in a liquid affected by?
temperature and pressure
40
describe the relationship between solubility of a gas with temperature and pressure
solubility of gas decrease with increasing temperature and increases with increasing pressure
41
what is Henry's law
solubility (gas) = k (M/atm) x P (gas)
42
what is a dilute solution
solution that contains small quantities of solute relative to amount of solvent
43
concentrated solution
large quantities of solute relative to amount of solvent
44
molarity formula
moles solute/ volume solution
45
does molarity depend on temperature
yes
46
does molality depend on temperature
no
47
equation for molality
mols of solute/ kg of solvent
48
when is molality useful
comparing concentrations across different temps
49
what is ppm
parts per million, 10^6
50
what is ppb
parts per billion, 10^9
51
collagitive property
depends on number of particles dissolved in the solution
52
what are the 4 collagitive properties
vapor pressure lowering, freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, and osmotic pressure
53
nonvolatile
susbtance that doesn't vaporize rapidly
54
in vapor pressure lowering, what component has a decrease in vapor pressure
solutions has a lower vapor pressure than the pure solvent
55
Raoult's law
P(solution)= X(solvent) x Pure pressure(solvent)
56
what is the relatioship between vapor pressure and solvent
direct proportionality of vapor pressure to amount of solvent in the solution
57
What is another name for a volatile solute
nonelectrolyte
58
Raoult's law for 2 component solution containing liquids A and B
1) Pa=Xa+P0a 2) Pb=Xb+P0b 3) Ptotal=Pa+Pb
59
what happens to a non-ideal solution in which solute-solvent interactions are stronger than solvent-solvent interactions
the solute tends to prevent solvent from vaporizing as readily
60
a nonvolatile solute does what to vapor pressure of a solution
lowers the vapor pressure, lifts the boiling point and lowers freeizing point
61
a highly concentrated solution will have what kind of freezing point, boiling point
low freezing point and high melting point
62
equation for change in Temp
Change in Temp=Km
63
osmosis
flow of solvent from solution of low solute concentration to one of higher concentration (from diluted to concentrated)
64
osmotic pressure
pressure required to stop the osmotic flow
65
osmotic pressure formula
pi=MRt
66
van't Hoff factor
i = moles of particles in solution / moles of formula units dissolved
67
rate of a chemical reaction is a measure of
how fast the reaction occurs
68
the reaction portion of a reaction rate contains what kind of sign
negative
69
what happens to product concentrations as the reaction proceeds
the concentrations increase
70
what happens to reactant concentration in relation to time
as time increases, reactant concentration decreases
71
rate depends on BLANK of the reactants
concentration
72
in zero oder reaction, the rate is BLANK of concentration A
independent
73
in first order reaction, rate is BLANK to concentration of A
proportional
