Q

What is the triple point?

A

The point at which all three phases are in equilibrium. Below the triple point the substance cannot exist in the liquid state

30
Q

What is the critical point?

A

It is where the critical temperature and the critical pressure meet. Above the critical point, it is no longer possible to distinguish between the gas and liquid phases (aka supercritical fluid)

31
Q

Why is solid CO2 known as “dry ice”?

A

Because the triple point is well above atmospheric pressure. You cannot have liquid carbon dioxide at pressures less that 5.11 atm. So at 1 atm carbon dioxide will go from a solid to a gas (no liquid stage)

32
Q

Phase going from a solid to a gas is known as?

A

Sublimation

33
Q

Phase going from a gas to a solid is known as?

A

Deposition

34
Q

For liquids, as the strength of Intermolecular Forces increase, what does the boiling point, surface tension, heat of vaporization, viscosity, critical temperature, rate of evaporation, and vapor pressure do?

A 
Boiling point increases
Surface tension increases
Heat of vaporization increases
Viscosity increases
Critical temperature increases
Rate of evaporation decreases
Vapor pressure decreases
35
Q

36
Q

Equation for mass percent

A

(mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100

37
Q

38
Q

Equation for mole fraction, X

A

(moles of solute/moles of solution)

39
Q

A

Moles of solute/Liters of solution

temperature dependent

40
Q

A

Moles of solute/ kg of solvent

41
Q

Equation for boiling point elevation

A

delta Tb = Kb x m x i

42
Q

Equation for freezing point depression

A

delta Tf = Kf x m x i

43
Q

Equation for osmotic pressure

A

pi = MRT

44
Q

What is a solute?

A

The part of the solution that is dissolved or is the least abundant component

45
Q

What is a solvent?

A

The dissolving agent of the solution or is the most abundant component

46
Q

What three types of intermolecular forces exist in a solution?

A

Solute-solvent interactions, solvent-solvent interactions, and solute-solute interaction

47
Q

What does “like dissolves like” imply?

A

Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents; nonpolar solutes dissolve in nonpolar solvents; solutes and solvents of comparable IMF’s are soluble in each other

48
Q

Define dissociation

A

When an ionic substance is dissolved in water and the ions that are tighty packed together in the solid become separated

49
Q

Define entropy (S)

A

It is the measure of randomness and is directly related to the number of ways a system can disperse its energy, which is closely related to the freedom of motion of the particles; Sgas > Sliquid > Ssolid

50
Q

What determines solution formation?

A

The relative magnitudes of delta Hsol and delta Ssoln; changes toward a state of lower enthalpy (exothermic); changes toward a state of higher entropy (more disorganized)

51
Q

Describe the effect of temperature on the solubility of solids and gases.

A

The solubility of solids in liquids generally increases with temperature. The solubility of gases in liquids almost always decreases as temperature increases

52
Q

What is Henry’s Law?

A

It states that the solubility of a gas, Sgas, is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas, Pgas, above the solution: Sgas = kH x Pgas
aka the solubility increases as the pressure increases

53
Q

What causes decompression sickness (the bends)?

A

Scuba divers air tanks contain both nitrogen and oxygen (high concentrations of pure oxygen is toxic). As a result, high concentration of N2 is dissolved in the diver’s blood. If a diver ascends too quickly (a fast change from high pressure (where gas is soluble) to low pressure (where gas is less soluble)) the Nitrogen will separate out from the blood and form bubbles in the tissue or blood. These Nitrogen bubbles affect nerve impulses, joints, and bones and is very painful.

54
Q

Define Saturated

A

A saturated solution is a solution that is in equilibrium with undissolved solute; additional solute will not dissolve if added to a saturated solution

55
Q

Define solubility

A

It is the amount of solute needed to form a saturated solution in a given quantity of solvent

56
Q

Define unsaturated solution

A

A solution that contains less solute than the amount needed to form a saturated solution

57
Q

Define supersaturated solution

A

A solution that contains more solute that the amount needed to form a saturated solution and is unstable relative to the saturated solution

58
Q

Describe the solubility of alcohols

A

The solubility of alcohol in polar solvents (water) decreases; the solubility of alcohol in nonpolar solvents increases (hexane, C6H14)

59
Q

What is the solubility of Vitamins A, C and K3?

A

Vitamin A is water insoluble and fat soluble; Vitamin C is water soluble and fat insoluble; Vitamin K3 is water insoluble and fat soluble

60
Q

Define miscible liquid

A

Pairs of liquids that mix in all proportions

61
Q

Define immiscible lquid

A

Pairs of liquids that do not dissolve in one another

62
Q

List both equations for parts per million (1 ppm)

A

1 ppm = (1 ug of solute)/(1 g of solution)

1 ppm = (1 mg of solute)/(1 L of solution)

63
Q

What are the two types of physical properties?

A

Extensive (mass and volume) depend on the size of the sample; and intensive (density and temperature) do not

64
Q

Define colligative property and list the properties

A

A colligative property of a solution is one that depends on the concentration of a solute particles and does not depend on the identity of the solute. They are: vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure

65
Q

Equation for vapor pressure lowering (Raoult’s Law)

A

Psolvent = Xsolvent x P*solvent

think of it like after taxes = tax rate x before taxes

66
Q

What happens when a nonvolatile solute is added to a solvent to form a solution?

A

The VP decreases, boiling point increases, freezing point decreases, and osmotic pressure increases

67
Q

Why does the presence of nonvolatile solute particles in a liquid solvent decrease the vapor pressure above the liquid?

A

When a solute is added to the solvent, some of the solute molecules occupy the space near the surface of the liquid. As a result, the number of solvent molecules near the surface decreases that is, the rate at which the solvent molecules in the liquid can escape into the gas phase decreases. As a result, the vapor pressure of the solvent escaping from a solution should be smaller than the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

68
Q

Define: strong electrolyte

A

Ions dissociate completely; soluble salts, strong acids, and strong bases

69
Q

Define: weak electrolyte

A

Ions only partially dissociate; weak acids and weak bases

70
Q

Define: nonelectrolyte

A

Do not dissociate into ions at all; e.g sugar
