Final Flashcards
What are the conditions listed in the kinetic theory of reactions?
-collisions must have enough energy
-molecules must collide to react
-collisions must have correct orientation
These are not the function of a catalyst?
-It increases the activation energy
-It slows down the rate of a reaction
-It is used up during a reaction
A reversible reaction is at equilibrium when
the forward reaction rate equals the reverse
reaction rate
An equilibrium constant greater than 1 indicates that a reaction mixture at equilibrium most likely contains
Mostly products
For the reaction CO (g) + H2O (g) ↔ CO2 (g) + H2 (g) + Heat, if the temperature is decreased, where does the equilibrium
shift?
Shifts right towards the products
Using the same equation from question 10, if H2 (g) is added, where does the equilibrium shift?
Shifts left towards the reactants
For the following reaction C2H4 (g) + Cl2 (g) ↔ C2H4Cl2 (g) + Heat, if a catalyst is added, where the does the equilibrium
shift?
No change
Out of the choices listed, what is true about KOH?
It would increase the pH of a solution
Name the following acid, H3PO4
Phosphoric acid
For the following equation identify the Bronsted-Lowry acid and the Bronsted-Lowry base
H2O is the acid (proton donor), NH3 is the base
(proton acceptor)
Identify if the equilibrium mixture from the previous question contains mostly reactants, products, or an equal amount of
both. Assume H2SO4 has a pKa <1 and H3PO4 has a pKa >1.
Contains mostly products
Identify what is true about weak acids
-They have a small Ka value
-They have a large pKa
-They dissociate only slightly in aqueous
solutions
Energy stored in an object due to its position (like a holding a ball 5 feet above the ground) is an example of
Potential energy
H30 is higher and between (10-7 and 10-0)
OH is lower and between (10-14 and 10-7)
Acidic
H30 and OH equals 10-7
Neutral
