Chemistry Unit #4: Gases and Solutions...... Test on Thursday, January 12, 2017 Flashcards
State the three assumptions used for the kinetic theory of matter.
I.) All matter are made of small particles
II.) All matter is moving III.) All particle collisions are elastic
A.) What is solute? 2
Smallest component in a solution
Particle separate from each other
Consider two closed glass containers of the same volume. One is filled with hydrogen gas and the other Is filled with carbon dioxide gas both at room temperature and pressure. How do the two gases compare in mass
CO2 higher
In C = n/V, what do the letters represent?
(C) CONCENTRATION = MOLE/VOLUME
(n) MOLE = number of moles of solute (what you are dissolving into the solvent).
(V) VOLUME = total volume of the solvent.
State two unique ways in which, according to the kinetic theory, it is possible to cause water to boil.
I.) Increase temperature to increase average kinetic energy of particles
II.) Decrease pressure until it matches the vapour pressure of the liquid
What is unsaturated? 2
A qualitative measure
More solute may dissolve for given temperature
What 101.3 kPa equal to in terms of atm?
1 atm
What is miscible? 2
Substance pair that can both completely dissolve in each other
Unlimited solubility
Example: alcohol and water
What is an ideal gas? Do they exist? Explain. 2
An Ideal Gas is a gas that exhibits no IMF (or does not condense into a liquid).
Most gases at LOW PRESSURE and/or HIGH TEMPERATURE act as ideal gas until IMF become significant
B.)What is solvent? 2
Biggest component in a solution that surrounds the solute particles
Called Solvation (hydration in water)
Consider two closed glass containers of the same volume. One is filled with hydrogen gas and the other Is filled with carbon dioxide gas both at room temperature and pressure. How do the two gases compare in number of molecules
Same
What 101.3 kPa equal to in terms of torr?
760
What is supersaturated? 5
A qualitative measure
Excess solute has been dissolved for a given temperature Extra dissolved at a higher temperature and carefully cooled Very unstable Seeding or shaking results in precipitate forming
Using the kinetic theory of matter, explain why diffusion occurs when someone farts. 3
Flatulence contains gases (some are odourless, others not…) that have a velocity.
The particles will diffuse out of an area of higher concentration to an area or low concentration, away from the issuer. They will be detected first by others near then those farther away until their concentration is below the threshold of most noses.
What is immiscible? 2
Substance pair that will separate into layers and not dissolve
Completely insoluble
Ex: oil and water
