Q

Molar Enthalpy Change Calculations

A

△H = n△Hvap

111
Q

Thermochemical Equations ( 3 ways)

A

Method 1: Energy Terms
With an exothermic reaction the energy term must be a product.
2 C4H10 + 13 O2 → 8 CO2 + 10 H2O + 5742 kJ
With an endothermic reaction the energy term must be a reactant side.
AgNO3 + 22.6 kJ → Ag+ + NO3-
Method 2: △H Values
CO + 2H2 → CH3OH △H= -128.6 kJ
The units for enthalpy change are kJ to kJ/mol, because the enthalpy change applies to the reactants and products as written, the moles must be taken into consideration. The same reaction could be written as

½ CO + H2 → ½ CH3OH △H = -64.3 kJ
Method 3: Enthalpy Diagram

112
Q

Bond Energies

A

△H rxn = reactents - products

113
Q

Hess Law

A

The amount of heat involved in producing one chemical from another is always the same, no matter how many stages are taken to obtain the desired product.

114
Q

Why is Hess’s Law Used

A

It allows us to combine equations to generate new chemical reactions whose enthalpy changes can be calculated, rather than directly measured.

115
Q

Write Formations of Equations

A

Standard Enthalpy of Formation: the quantity of energy associated with the formation of one mole of a substance from its elements in their standard states
Step 1: Write one mole of product in the state that has been specified
Step 2: Write the reactant elements in their standard states
Step 3: Choose equation coefficients for the reactants to give a balanced equation yielding one mole of product
△H = ∑ n△Hof( products) - ∑n△Hof( reactants)

116
Q

Rate of Reaction

A

the speed at which a chemical change occurs.

117
Q

Average Rate of reaction

A

the speed at which a reaction proceeds over a period of time
* To find on a graph, the average over a time period is the absolute value of the slope of secant drawn between two points
r = △c/ △t

118
Q

Instantaneous Rate of Reaction

A

The speed at which a reaction is proceeding at a particular point in time

119
Q

Rate Law

A

The relationship among rate, the rate constant, the initial concentration of reactants and the orders if reaction with respect to the reactants
R = K [X]m[Y]n

120
Q

Order of Reactions

A

M or N To find those values is through experiments.
0 means substance concentration has no effect on the rate
1 if you x2 [a] it will double the rate
2 if you double [a] it will quadruple the rate
If you tripe it will x9 the rate

121
Q

Calculate the Overall Order of Reaction

A

The overall reaction order is simply the sum of orders for each reactant. For the example rate law here, the reaction is third order overall (1 + 2 = 3). Adding the m + n exponents values together.

releasing thermal energy as heat flows out of the system (-)

132
Q

Endothermic

A

absorbing thermal energy as heat flows into the system (+)

133
Q

Temperature

A

Average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter

134
Q

Quantitative Reaction

A

a reaction in which virtually all of the limiting reagent is consumed

135
Q

Equilibrium Reaction

A

when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction

136
Q

Ke

A

Equilibrium Constant: Ke → the value obtained from the mathematical combination of equilibrium concentrations using the equilibrium law expression.
aA + bB ⇆ cC + dD
K = [C]c[D]d / [A]a[B]b

137
Q

Le Chatelier’s Principle

A

When a chemical system at equilibrium is disturbed by a change in a property, the system adjusts in a way that opposes the change.

138
Q

Equilibrium Shift

A

movement of a system at equilibrium, resulting in a change in the concentration of reactants and products.

139
Q

Add a Reactant

A

( Favors the Product)

140
Q

Remove Reactant

A

Favors reactants

141
Q

Add or Remove a product

A

( Favors the reactant )

142
Q

Change Volume

A

pressure is inversely proportional to the volume
If Volume increase Pressure Decreases
P1V1 = P2V2

143
Q

Change in Temperature

A

Endothermic reactions the products are favored
Increase will cause a shift to the right
Decrease will cause a shift to the left

144
Q

Addition of a catalyst

A

speed up rate of forward reaction but has no effect on the equilibrium

145
Q

Insert gas

A

increases pressure

146
Q

Pressure ( adding or removing)

A

if pressure is added, shift towards the side with less moles. If pressure is relieved shifts towards the side with more moles

147
Q

Homogeneous vs Heterogeneous

A

Homogenous System: All components are in gaseous solution or phase
Heterogeneous System: Components differs in their states

148
Q

Calculating Qt Value and Equilibrium Shift

A

Qt reaction quotient: a test calculation using measured concentration values of a system in the equilibrium expression
Q=K system is at equilibrium
Q is greater than K the system must shift left
Q is less than K the system must shift right

149
Q

Solubility vs Solubility Product

A

Solubility: the concentration of a saturated solution of a solute in a particular solvent at a particular temperature; specific maximum concentration

Solubility Product Constant ( Ksp ): the value obtained from the equilibrium law applied to a saturated solution

150
Q

Determine If Precipitate Will Form

A

Q> Ksp precipitate forms
Q < Ksp precipitate does not form

151
Q

Strong and Weak Acid

A

Strong Acid: an acid which completely ionized in an aqueous solution (HCl)
Weak Acid: an acid that ionizes only slightly in an aqueous solution ( Acetic Acid )

152
Q

Strong and Weak Base

A

Strong Base: a base which is completely ionized in a solution.
Weak Base: a base that ionizes only slightly in a solution.

153
Q

Where Hydronium Ion Comes From

A

The hydronium ion always forms when an acid dissolves in water. The H+ from the acid always goes to the nearest water molecule and forms H3O+.

154
Q

Identify Conjugate Pairs For Acids and Bases

A

In the Brønsted–Lowry definition of acids and bases, a conjugate acid–base pair consists of two substances that differ only by the presence of a proton (H⁺). A conjugate acid is formed when a proton is added to a base, and a conjugate base is created when a proton is removed from an acid.
An acid is a proton donor ( donates an H+ ) Ion
A base is a proton receiver ( receives a H+) Ion
The stronger the acid the weaker the conjugate base, and conversely, the weaker an acid, the stronger its conjugate base.

155
Q

Determine Ph or POH of H3O

A

pH= -log[H+]
POH= -log[OH-]
14-(-log[OH-]) = pH

156
Q

Purpose of Buffer

A

Buffer: a mixture of a conjugate acid-base pair that maintains a nearly constant pH diluted or when a strong acid or base is added: an equal mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base.
The main purpose is to maintain the pH level to a certain value by neutralizing the small amount of acid or bases added to that particular solution by making them a weak acid or base.

157
Q

Ionization Percentage

A

p= concentration of acid ionized/ concentration of acid solution x 100%
