Chem class 3 Flashcards
What are the phases of matter?
Solid, liquid, gas
When energy is added to a substance, that energy can be used to do one of two physical things. What are they?
Increase temperature (increase KE), Or cause a phase change (increase PE)
What two things does vapor pressure depend on?
TEMPERATURE IN INTERMOLECULAR FORCES
WHEN DOES LIQUID BOIL?
WHEN THE **VAPOR PRESSURE OF THE LIQUID =ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE **
The phase of a substance depends on what two properties besides intermolecular forces?
Temperature in pressure
WHAT ASSUMPTIONS DO WE MAKE ABOUT IDEAL GASES?
I do gases are composed of molecules that take up no volume and experience NO intermolecular forces.
What conditions are indicated by the letters STP?
1 atm 0C
What is the volume of one mole of an ideal gas at STP?
22.4L
Describe at the molecular level what happens to a solid when it dissolves.
Solute particles are separated and encapsulated by solvent molecules such that the solute is observed to dissolve.
Define an electrolyte
And electrolyte is a solute that dissolves into charged particles in solution (has an i value greater than 1)
Name at least three properties of liquids that depend on intermolecular forces.
Solubilty, vapor pressure, boiling point temperature, melting point temperature, viscosity, surface tension.
What quantity is specified by the average kinetic energy of molecules of a substance?
Temperature.
What phase do molecules have the most energy?
Gas phase
At a given temperature which gas molecules travel faster: those with small molecular weights or large ones?
Gases with smaller molecular weights travel faster.
What are the official names for the six phase changes?
Fusion (melting), Freezing, vaporization, condensation, simulation, and disposition.
What happens at a molecular level when a substance changes phase?
Intermolecular forces are formed or broken.
