19
Q

Pressure increase/volume decrease:

A

shift towards the side with fewer moles of molecules

20
Q

Pressure decrease/volume increase:

A

shift towards the side with more moles of molecules

21
Q

when there is equal moles on each side and a volume/pressure shift…

A

no change occurs / no shift

22
Q

a catalyst…

A

Changes the rate of both forward and reverse reaction by the same amount, therefore it does not affect the position of the equilibrium.

23
Q

If inert gases are added to increase the total pressure of the system…

A

nothing will change. The equilibrium pressure will not change.

24
Q

pH/pOH sig digs

A

the numbers behind the decimal place are significant

25
Q

strong acid

A

an acid that completely dissociates/ionizes (100%) into its ions

26
Q

weak acid

A

an acid that slightly ionizes/dissociates into water

27
Q

dilute solution

A

solution w/low ratio of solute to solvent

28
Q

concentrated solution

A

a solution w/high ratio of solute to solvent

29
Q

SO2 and CO2 react with water to form

A

H2SO3 and H2CO3

30
Q

bronsted-lowry neutralization

A

results in a proton (hydrogen) transfer from the strongest acid to the strongest base.

31
Q

in bronsted-lowry, a hydrogen =

A

a proton

32
Q

conjugate acid base pairs

A

chemical species whose formulas differ only by one proton

33
Q

amphiprotic

A

substances that can act as both a Bronsted Lowry acid and base.

34
Q

if acid is above base…

A

it is products favoured

35
Q

if acid is below base…

A

it is reactants favoured

capable of accepting only one hydrogen

40
Q

‘continuously added’ or ‘reacted until ___endpoints’

A

write more than one reaction (for polyprotic/basic)

41
Q

endpoint

A

pH. the point where there is a colour change

42
Q

equivalence point

A

volume. where endpoint occurs; measured quantity of titrant

43
Q

buffer zone

A

period on titration curve before big change in pH

44
Q

buffers

A

conjugate acid-base pair in a solution that resists sudden changes in pH when an acid or base is added

45
Q

buffers must…

A

Has to be a weak conjugate acid-base pair (e.g. H2CO3 and HCO3-)

46
Q

empirical

A

based on observations or experience
