Exam 2 Activity of Water Flashcards
Keq formula
Keq = ([C][D]) / ([A][B])
pH formula
pH = -log[H+]
Freezing point depression formula
deltaTf = Kf*m
Universal gas law
PV = nRT
T or F: The formula expression are applicable only where ideal behavior is implied i.e. intermolecular, interatomic and/or interionic forces may not be ignored
False; they can be ignored
T or F: Interionic attractive forces between oppositely charged ions of strong electrolytes in solution interfere with movement of these ions
True
T or F: A strong electrolyte may be completely ionized in solution, yet it is incompletely dissociated into free ions
True
T or F: There is interference in the freedom of each of the ions to act towards influencing the freezing point of the solution
True
The ______ of the different ions in solution with each other (or even molecules of the same substance as in the case of solutions of nonelectrolytes) results in a _____ between the experimental value of a certain physical or chemical property and the value calculate using stoichiometric concentration in the mathematical expression
Interference; deviation
It is better to think of the solution as having an effective concentration that is called ______
Activity
Activity, in general, is ___ (more/less) than the actual or stoichiometric concentration of the solute
Less
Chemical or physical property =
f (activity)
An electrode of a pH meter during a pH measurement responds to the _____ of H+, not its concentration
activity
T or F: Since an electrode of a pH meter during a pH measurement responds to the activity of H+, therefore pH = -log(activity H+)
True
Ideal gas law looks at ____ vs. pressure
Fugacity
Activity measures the _____ ______ of a chemical species whether in the state of gas, liquid, or solid, or whether present as a single species or in combination with other species
Net effectiveness
T or F: Activity may be viewed as corrected concentration
True
T or F: Activity takes into account the stoichiometric concentration (or pressure in case of gases) as well as any intramolecular attractions, repulsions, or interactions between solute and solvent in solution, association, and ionization
False; …. as well as any intermolecular (not intramolecular)
T or F: The activities normally used are relative activites
True
T or F: It is possible to assign an absolute value to the activity of a component in solution. Therefore, in order to make quantitative comparisons, a standard state is chosen
True
