Chemistry Block 2 Flashcards
Chemical Reactions Example
●matches (phosphorus and sulfur ignite with friction)
●cooking on gas (burning chemicals to produce energy)
●engines for vehicles (burning of chemicals produce energy) like cars, buses, planes etc.
●batteries (involves chemical reactions that produce electricity)
●antacid tablets/liquids (react with HCl in stomach to reduce stomach acid)
●toothpaste (sodium fluoride in toothpaste reacts to rebuild enamel and control bacteria)
●soap and shampoo (has sodium or potassium which clean dirt and oils off body)

4. Chemical Reactions
The number of formula units in a mole is known as _______.
Avogadro’s
What is Avogadro’s number?
6.02214199 x 10^23
Atomic mass (in grams) relationship with 1 mole.
atomic mass (in grams) of any atom will be the mass same as the mass of 1 mole of that particular atom/element.
A balanced chemical equation tells us about…
Reactants
–Products
–Their state
–Also Molar Ratios
Stoichiometry
“the study of mass relationships in chemical reactions”
Oxidation
the gain of oxygen and/or loss of hydrogen.
Reduction
the loss of oxygen and/or gain of hydrogen
Gas pressure
the force per unit area exerted against a surface.
–most commonly measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), atmospheres (atm), and torr.
–SI unit is pascal
At sea level, the average pressure of the atmosphere is _______
760 mm Hg, that equals to 1 atm.
Pressure is measured using a _________
barometer
Boyle’s law
P- V relationship
Charles’s law:
T-V relationship
Gay- Lussac’s law:
P-T relationship
Combined gas law:
combination of these 3 gas laws
P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2
Explains relationship between mass of gas (M) and its volume (V)
“Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules.”
PV = nRT
Where P = pressure of the gas (atm)
V = volume of the gas (L)
n = amount the gas in moles (mol)
T = temperature of the gas (K)
R = Ideal gas constant [a constant for all gases]
three types of intermolecular forces:
A. London dispersion forces
B. Dipole-dipole interactions
C. Hydrogen bonding
Although the three intermolecular forces are relatively weak compared to the strength of ionic and covalent bonds, they determine many properties of biomolecules such as_______.
melting point
boiling point
viscosity
3D shape
London Dispersion Forces
“Extremely weak attractive forces between atoms or molecules caused by electrostatic attraction between temporary induced dipoles.”
However, at any given instant, the electron density may be shifted more towards one part of the atom than another, thus creating a temporary dipole.
