Exam 1 Flashcards
Enthalpy
Delta H
Heat absorbed or emitted during a reaction under constant pressure
Entropy
Number of arrangements
Tells you which way heat transfers
Electronegativity
- Increase across
- Decrease down
- An atoms tendency to form bonds
Ionization energy
-increase across
-decrease down
-energy required to remove an electron
Reason: valence shell stability, electron shielding
Effective nuclear charge
- charge felt by valence electrons after calculating electron
- protons minus core electrons
- determines all periodic trends
Solution
- Homogeneous mixture of 2 or more components
- can’t unmix
Mixture
- heterogeneous
- diff composition
- easy to unmix
What factors affect solubility?
- nature of solvent
- nature of solute
- entropy change
- temperature
- Gibbs free energy
immiscible
the solute and solvent do not mix up
thermal energy
- sum of kinetic and potential energy
- relies on energy and composition
solvation shell
H2O molecules are locked in place around molecule
clathrates
water forms a cage structure around molecules
high pressure and low temp
surfactant
polar and non polar parts
used to break up oil
substitute alloy
if the atoms are of similar size, the solute atoms substitute for the solvent atoms
interstitial alloy
if the solute is smaller the atoms sit in the holes
