What is the difference of empirical formula and molecular formula?

A

An empirical formula represents the formula of a compound in the simplest way.
A molecular formula represents the formula of a compound as it exists. (can be reduced by a common factor)
Empirical : CH, Molecular: C6H6

75
Q

How do we find the empirical formula?

A

Since we will be given 2 percent compositions for different elements,we will be doing the steps for each element.

  1. turn percent composition into grams (no conversion)
  2. Convert grams into moles
  3. Once you have moles for both elements, divide each calculation by the smallest mole value in order to get a ratio.
  4. If your ratio is not a whole number, multiply by either 2,3,4 depending on the decimal. Once you have a whole number, go back to the elements and add their ratios as subscripts.
76
Q

How do we find molecular formula?

A

Since we will be given a Molar mass, we have to see if it will be true.

  1. Find empirical formula
  2. If values do not match, we can assume the formula was simplified and NOT the true molecular formula.
  3. We will then divide (molar mass molecular aka given)/ (molar mass calculated from empirical)
  4. once you get that value, it will let us know our empirical formula is off by a factor of it.

Physical

100
Q

Which is weaker IMF or chemical bonds?

A

Intermolecular forces

101
Q

What are the 3 types of IMF?

A

London Dispersion, Dipole Dipole, Hydrogen Bonds

102
Q

What is London Dispersion?

A

An attraction that is temporary and present in all molecules

103
Q

What is Dipole-Dipole?

A

A permanent attraction in polar molecules

104
Q

What is Hydrogen Bonding?

A

A Strong force that occurs when H bonds to either F,O or N

105
Q

How does IMF relate to energy needed for phase changes?

A

Strong IMF increase energy needed for phase change

106
Q

How does IMF relate to surface tension?

A

Strong IMF increases the surface tension

107
Q

How does IMF relate to vapor pressure?

A

Strong IMF decreases the vapor pressure. A liquid with stronger intermolecular forces does not evaporate easily and thus has a lower vapor pressure

108
Q

What is a vapor?

A

When a substance is present as both a gas and a liquid, the gas is a vapor. There is equilibrium between gas and liquid since it is in a closed space

109
Q

What is evaporation?

A

It is the same as vapor but it occurs in an open system and there is no equilibrium since particle are completely escaping

110
Q

When does boiling occur? evaporation?

A

When vapor pressure equal atmospheric pressure.When vapor pressure is less than atmospheric pressure, evaporation occurs

111
Q

In lower pressure, boiling points are

A

lower

112
Q

In higher pressure, boiling points are

A

higher

113
Q

What is the relationship between solids and melting points

A

The stronger the force, the higher the melting point. Covalent crystals have the highest, Ionic have an intermediate melting point and Molecular crystals (such as Ice) have a very low melting point

114
Q

When are solutions likely to form?

A

When 2 substances have similar IMF (except for substances that are only LDF)

115
Q

What is the difference between a solute and solvent?

A

A solute is the thing that gets dissolved, a solvent is the thing that solute dissolves in.

116
Q

122
Q

What is a complete ionic formula?

A

In this type of formula, anything that is aqueous, is written as individual ions. If it is a solid or liquid, they are written as wholes

123
Q

What is a Net ionic formula?

A

To generate a net ionic formula, we need to look at the complete ionic and make only write the things that changed.

Q

How do we calculate Keq? What are the units?

A

Keq = products/reactants In units of molarity

137
Q

Are all substances listed in Keq?

A

NO, only gases and aqueous solutions

138
Q

How do we find Keq between 2 sequences?

A

Mutliply them together

139
Q

What does LeChatliers principle tell us?

A

Our reaction shifts to the side that has less

140
Q

Does a catalyst increase or decrease the energy of an intermediate?

A

decrease

141
Q

Given H+, how do we solve for pH?

A

take the - log

142
Q

Given pH, how do we solve for pOH?

A

If we are given pH, simply use 14=pH + pOH and solve for pOH

143
Q

How do we solve for OH- concentration given H+?

A

Use the Kw formula Kw = H+ * OH-

144
Q

When asked to write a titration formula, what do we do?

A

You will be given an acid and base which will have to form a salt and water.

145
Q

How do we solve for titrations?

A

We will have to set up our conversions. Since we will be given volume of acid, make sure it is in liters and start off with that. Once you do, convert the liters into moles using molarity. After you have moles, convert into the bases moles using coefficients from the balanced equation. After you get moles of your base, divide by the volume given in the problem.

146
Q

In a dilution, what is constant? what changes?

A

In a dilution, concentration is reduced and amount of solute is constant

147
Q

What does a large Keq tell us about the reaction?

A

In a large Keq (greater than one), we can assume that products are favored, it is a favorable reaction

148
Q

What does a small Keq tell us about the reaction?

A

In a small Keq (less than one), we can assume that reactants are favored and it is an unfavorable reaction.

149
Q

How does heat relate to LeChatlier’s Principle?

A

If we have an endothermic reaction, heat is a reactant and it will shift right. If we have an exothermic reaction, heat is a product and it will shift left

150
Q

What are the 6 strong acids?

A

HCl, H2SO4, HI, HNO3, HBr, HClO4

151
Q

What makes an acid strong? weak?

A

Complete dissociation in solution means an acid is strong. A weak acid has a partial dissociation in solution.

152
Q

What is generally a weak acid?

A

Carboxyllic Acids

153
Q

What bases are strong?

A

Generally strong bases are metal hydroxides

LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2

154
Q

How do we tell the difference between Ka and Kb?

A 
Ka= acid + water ⇌ H3O + conjugate base 
Kb= base+ water ⇌ OH- + conjugate acid
155
Q

How does the K value relate to favoritism?

A

If we have two values with a small Ka Value, the one that is the biggest (even though they both favor reactants) is the stronger weak (acid/base).

156
Q

How does the K value relate to an inverse relationship in strength of weak acids/bases?

A

If we determine we have a weak acid, we know the conjugate base will be strong. If we have a weak base, the conjugate acid will be strong.

157
Q

When calculating concentration of H3O+ or OH-, what will determine acidic or basic?

A

If we have a higher H3O + concentration, it is acidic. If OH- is higher, it is basic

158
Q

When does a buffer work at its best?

A

When ph = pKa

159
Q

To find concentration of H3O+, given pH what do we do?

A

10 ^-pH (antilog of pH)

160
Q

To find concentration of OH-, given pOHwhat do we do?

A

10 ^-pOH (antilog of pOH)

161
Q

How do we find the sequences of polyprotic acids?

A

In the 1st step, we will have an acid + water = Hydronium and base (H+ when to water and created H3O+)
In the second step, our base will be our acid and we will have acid + water = Hydronium + base ( one less H+)

162
Q

How do we calculate pH given molarity for acid base and Ka?

A

Use the pKa + log (base/acid) formula

163
Q

What happens in alpha decay?

A

Atomic # decreases by 2

Mass # decreases by 4

164
Q

What happens in Beta Decay?

A

Atomic # increases by 1

Mass # stays the same

165
Q

What happens in positron decay?

A

Atomic # decreases by 1

Mass # stays the same

166
Q

In a pH scale, what values indicate an acidic solution? basic?

A

In a pH scale, acidic is anything less than 7 and basic is anything greater than 7

167
Q

In a pOH scale, what values indicate an acidic solution?

A

In a pOH scale, acidic is anything greater than 7, basic is anything less than 7

168
Q

If we are given Ka, how do we solve for pKa?

A

-log

169
