Q

What is rutherfords gold foil experiment

A

A piece of gold foil was hit with high speed alpha particles, which have a positive charge. All of the atom’s positive charge and most of the atom’s mass were concentrated at a tiny point in the centre (the nucleus). The electrons surrounded the nucleus and occupied most of the atom’s volume, but they only made up a small fraction of the atom’s total mass.

Q

What is mass spectrometer? and How does it work?

A

identify isotopes and their respective abundances

the sample is vaporized (converted to the gas phase by heating)

An electron beam bombards the vapors, which converts the vapors to ions

Because mass spectroscopy measures the mass of charged particles, only ions will be detected, and neutral molecules will not be seen.

Q

What is the ENC trend

in a group and period

A

Left-to-right in a period:
The number of protons increase, but the number of shielding electrons stays the same, thus the effective nuclear charge felt by the valence electrons increases

Top-to-bottom in a group:
As you go down a group, the increase in the nuclear charge is cancelled out by the increase in shielding electrons and the effective nuclear charge stays the same

Q

ionization energy trend (period and group)

A

Ionization energies increase left-to-right across a period
ENC increases, so valence electrons are more strongly attracted to the nucleus, and thus more energy is required to remove an electron from the atom

Ionization energies decrease top-to-bottom in a group
Atomic radius increases, so the attraction between the valence electrons and nucleus becomes weaker, and thus less energy is required to remove the first valence electron

Q

Electron affinity

A

Electron affinity is the energy change that occurs when an electron is accepted by an atom in the gaseous state
When an electron is added to a neutral atom in the gaseous state, energy is usually released
You can think of electron affinity as the amount of energy an atom (or ion) is willing to pay to buy another electron

Q

electron affinity trend (group and period)

A

Electron affinity decreases top-to-bottom in a group
Atomic radius increases, so there is a weaker attractive force between the nucleus of atom and the new electron, and thus the atom is less willing to spend energy to add an electron

Electron affinity increases left-to-right across a period
ENC increases, so the force of attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons increases, and thus the atom is more willing to spend energy to add an electron (noble gases are the exception)

Q

what are the 4 physical properties of ionic compounds

A

Ionic compounds have relatively high melting points because their ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces (ionic bonds)

Ionic compounds are hard, but brittle. Held together by the attraction of oppositely charged ions (electrostatic forces)
Resistant to being stretched or compressed

Dissolve in water. When an ionic crystal is placed in water, water molecules surround each ion and separate it from the crystal

high conductivity of electricity. When an ionic compound is dissolved in water (ie. it’s aqueous form), the result is an electrolyte
The dissolved ions are able to move freely, and thus to carry electric charges, through the water

What are the rules for drawing lewis structures

A

Rule 1: The central atom is usually the least electronegative atom (or largest bonding capacity)
Rule 2: Other atoms surround the least electronegative atom
Rule 3: Count the total number of valence electrons, including charges
Rule 4: Place electron pairs between each atom to represent a single covalent bond, then distribute the remainder of the electrons around the surrounding atoms (except hydrogen) to satisfy octet rule.
Rule 5: Replace electrons with lines to represent bonds and place square brackets around the final structure. Indicate the charge on the structure by placing the charge on the outside of the right square bracket.

Q

how does The strength of intermolecular forces determines physical properties of molecular compounds

A

As the intermolecular forces between molecules in a molecular compound increase, the compound’s melting point, boiling point, and surface tension also increase.

64
Q

what are dipole-dipole forces

A

An intermolecular attraction between opposite partial charges of polar molecules; a hydrogen bond is a particularly strong version of a dipole-dipole force (polar molcules)

65
Q

what are ion-dipole forces

A

An intermolecular attraction between partial charges of polar molecules and ions (polar and ions)

66
Q

what are London Dispersion Force

A

A weak intermolecular attraction between all entities, including non-polar molecules and neutral atoms, due to temporary dipoles (all entities other than ionic crystals)

67
Q

What is a special dipole-dipole force?

A

A dipole-dipole force is classified as a hydrogen bond if at least one of the dipoles involved arises from an H-F, H-O, or H-N bond (FON)
these bonds are much stronger than regualr dipole-dipole forces

68
Q

why does the stronger intermolecular force = the higher its melting/boiling point

A

Why?
In liquids and (to a greater extent) gases, entities are able to freely move past one another
To achieve this, entities must have sufficient kinetic energy (as measured by its temperature) to overcome its intermolecular forces
For entities with strong intermolecular forces, this sufficient level of kinetic energy is higher – that is, they melt and boil at higher temperatures

69
Q

What happens when water freezes

A

the molecules lose kinetic energy, and slow down
Hydrogen bonds start to arrange the molecules into a crystalline structure
This arrangement contains more space between the molecules than does the more random arrangement of liquid water molecules

70
Q

why does water have high suface tension

A

The hydrogen bonds in water cause water molecules to hold strongly to each other, pulling together and resisting being broken apart.

This causes water to take a shape that has the smallest possible surface area, forming beads or droplets.

Other liquids don’t do this!

71
Q

How to name ionic compounds

A

First part of the name comes from the cation
If cation is multivalent, must indicate charge after the name in brackets using Roman Numerals
Second part comes from the anion
If the anion is an element, its name is modified to end in –ide
If the anion is polyatomic, must determine correct name

is the mass of product actually collected during an experiment or industrial process

116
Q

what are some reasons why actual yield in less than theoretical yield

A

Reaction reversibility (Some reactions have a competing reverse reaction)
The experimental procedure (Regardless of how careful chemists are, they inevitably lose small quantities of material in most investigations!)
Impurities

As the ions leave the crystal form, they become surrounded by a sphere of water molecules

121
Q

what is dissociation

A

The process in which ions separate from ionic crystals, becoming individual ions, is called dissociation

122
Q

describe like dissolves like

A

The substance being dissolved

126
Q

saturated solution

A

A solution that contains the maximum quantity of solute, otherwise known as its solubility

127
Q

how do you make a supersaturated solution

A

A super saturated solution is prepared by dissolving the solute in water at a high temperature, then allowing the solution to cool

As the temperature drops, the solubility drops, but the extra solute doesn’t crystalize from the solution immediately – the solution becomes supersaturated

The extra solute stays dissolved until something disturbs the system
A tap on the flask or dropping a single crystal of solute into the solution can initiate crystallization!
The “seed crystal” provides a surface onto which excess solute can crystallize

127
Q

unsaturated solution

A

A solution that contains less than the maximum quantity of solute

127
Q

supersaturated

A

under special circumstances, you can force a solution to dissolve more solute than it normally would

128
Q

why do soft drinks bubble and fizz when theyre opened

A

The solubility of a gas in a liquid increases as the pressure of the gas is increased

When you open the can/bottle, the pressure drops, so the CO2 comes out of solution, which results in bubbling/fizzing

129
Q

how to calculate percent concentration

A
  1. percentage v/v
    c=v/v x100
  2. C=w/v=m/v

Q

Kinetic molecular theory

A

describes how indivdual entities move

states that entities are capable of virbrational, rotational, and translational motion

144
Q

how does temperature affect kinetic energy

146
Q

kelvin

A

termperaure units (t+273.15)

147
Q

how does the kinetic energy of gases also contributes to the pressure they exert

A

when kinetic energy or temp., in increased, entities hit walls more frequently. this results in greater force per unit area

147
Q

how does a solid become liquid and liquid become gas

A

A solid becomes a liquid when there is sufficient kinetic energy to overcome some of the attractive forces between the entities, allowing the entities to flow past each other

Similarly, a liquid becomes a gas when the kinetic energy further increases to the point where all the remaining attractive forces are overcome

148
Q

what is Gay-Lussac’s Law

A

temperature increases, pressure increased proportionally, when volume and amount of gas remains constant (linear graph)

148
Q

how does volume affect pressure

A

with a fixed temperature and entities, and volume decreases, pressure increases. this results in entities hitting the walls more frequently

149

linear

150
Q

What are the cahracterisitics of an ideal gas?

A
  1. Its entities all have high translational energy, moving randomly in all directions in straight lines
  2. When its entities collide with each other or with the container walls, the collisions are perfectly elastic (no loss in kinetic energy)
  3. The volume of an ideal gas entity is insignificant (zero) compared to the volume of the container
  4. There are no attractive or repulsive forces between ideal gas entities
  5. Ideal gases do not condense into liquids when cooled
151
Q

Can we always use Ideal Gas Law?

A

Gases behave most ideally at low pressures and high temperatures

When the pressure gets too high, attractive forces between entities become significant (can’t have those for an ideal gas!)

When the temperature gets too low, the entities move too slowly and again attractive forces become significant

So we need to be careful about using ideal gas law at high pressures and/or low temperatures

152
Q

Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures

A

The total pressure of a mixture of non-reacting gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases: P(total)=P+P+P+P

153
Q

Collecting gas over water

A

in the lab, if a gas is produced in a reaction, we often collect it by bubbling it through water

The problem with this is that water vapour gets mixed in with our gas product (P(total)-Pwater=P
