A

phase change

18
Q

The corresponding heat of ___ (during a phase change) is often referred to as the heat of fusion and is written as delta H sub f. On the other hand, the phase change from liquid to gas, or gas to liquid, occurs at the boiling-point temperature. here the heat of transformation is often referred to as the heat of vaporization and is written as delta H sub v

A

19
Q

A

temperature

20
Q

If a cover is placed on a beaker of liquid, the escaping ___ are trapped above the solution. These molecules exert a countering pressure, which forces some of the gas back into the liquid phase; this process is called condensation

A

molecules

21
Q

___ increases as temperature increase, since more molecules have sufficient kinetic energy to escape into the gas phase

A

vapor pressure

22
Q

The ___ at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the external pressure is called the boiling point

A

temperature

23
Q

Whereas pure crystals have distinct melting points, amorphous solids, such as glass, tend to melt over a larger ___ of temperatures due to their less-ordered molecular distribution

A

24
Q

The reverse (of ___) transition, from the gaseous to the solid phase, is called deposition

A

sublimation

25
Q

A

28
Q

The point at B is known as the critical point, the temperature and pressure above which the liquid and gas phases are not possible and ___ fluids exist instead

A

supercritical

29
Q

Raoult’s law enables one to determine the relationship between the vapor pressure of vapor A and the ___ of liquid A in the solution

A

concentration

30
Q

When solute B is added to pure ___ A, the vapor pressure of A above the solvent decreases. If the vapor pressure of A above pure solvent A is designated by P degree sub A and the vapor pressure of A above the solution containing B is P sub A, the vapor pressure decreases as follows:
delta P = P degree sub A - P sub A
This pressure decrease is also equivalent to:
delta P = X sub B P degree sub
where X sub B is the mole fraction of the solute B in solvent A (mol B/ total moles).
Because X sub B = 1 - X sub A and delta P = P degree sub A - P sub A, substitution into the above equation leads to the common form of Raoult’s law:
P sub A = X sub A P degree sub A
Similarly, the expression for the vapor pressure of the solute in solution (assuming it is volatile) is given by:
P sub B = X sub B P degree sub B

A

A

33
Q

___ are physical properties derived solely from the number of particles present, not the nature of those particles. These properties are usually associated with dilute solutions

A

34
Q

___ (H20) freezes at 0 degrees Celsius; however, for every mol of solute particles dissolved in 1L of water, the freezing point is lowered by 1.86 degrees Celsius

A

35
Q

The formula for ___ the freezing-point depression (due to solutes in pure solvent) is:
delta T sub f = iK sub f m
where delta T sub f is the freezing point depression, K sub f is a proportionality constant characteristic of a particular solvent, m is the molality of the solution (mol solute/ kg solvent), and i is the van’t Hoff facto, which accounts for the number of particles that dissociate from the original molecule

A

36
Q

A liquid boils when its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. IF the ___ of a solution is lower than that of the pure solvent, more energy (and consequently a higher temperature) will be required before its vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure. The extent to which the boiling point of a solution is raised relative to that of the pure solvent is given by the following formula:
delta T sub b = i K sub b m
where delta T sub b is the boiling point elevation, K sub b is a proportionality constant characteristic of a particular solvent, m is the molality of the solution an di is the van’t Hoff factor

A

37
Q

Consider a container separated into two compartments by a ___. One compartment contains pure water, while the other contains water with dissolve solute. The pressure exerted by the water level in the solute-containing compartment due to gravity will eventually oppose the influx of water due to diffusion (from the pure solvent container to the one with solute), and the water will stop flowing once this point is reached. This pressure is defined as the osmotic pressure (upper case pi) of the solution san dis given by the formula:
upper case pi = iMRT
where M is the molarity of the solution, R is the ideal gas constant, T is the temperature on the kelvin scale, and i is the van’t Hoff factor
This equation shows that molarity and osmotic pressure are directly proportional (i.e., as the concentration of the solution increases, the osmotic pressure also increases). Thus, the osmotic pressure depends only on the amount of solute, not its identity
