Q

Name some properties of gases

A
  • Many molecular compounds are gases
  • All gases are composed entirely of nonmetallic elements.
  • All gases have simple molecular formulas and low molar masses.
  • A gas expands spontaneously to fill its container.
  • The volume of a gas equals the volume of its container.
  • Gases are highly compressible: upon pressure their volume decreases.
  • Gases form homogenous mixtures with each other regardless of the identities orrelative proportions of the component gases.
    (ex: water and gasoline vapor and liquid mixtures)
  • The characteristic properties of the gases arise because the individual molecules are relatively far apart.
  • As a result, different gases behave similarly.

Q

What does the Boyle’s Las say?

A
  • The Pressure-Volume Relationship
  • The volume of a fixed quantity of gas maintained at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure

Q

What is the ideal gas equation?

A
  • PV = nRT
  • an ideal gas is a hypothetical gas whose pressure, volume, and temperature behavior is completely described by the ideal-gas equation.
  • The term R is called the gas constant.
  • Temperature must always be expressed in K!

Q

Does the ideal gas equation accurately describe real gases?

A
  • The ideal gas equation does not always accurately describe real gases
  • Ordinarily, the difference btw ideal and real behavior is so small that we may ignore it

Q

Why is it the case with the Delton’s law?

A

-each gas in a mixture behaves independently, we can easily relate the amount of a given gas in a mixture to its partial pressure

Q

What are the five rules of Kinetic-Molecular Theory?

A

-gases consist of large numbers of molecules
that are in continuous, random motion.
-The volume of all the molecules of the gas is negligible compared to the total volume in which the gas is contained
-Attractive and repulsive forces btw gas molecules are negligible
-Energy can be transferred btw molecules during collisions, but the average kinetic energy of the molecules do not change with time
-The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to the absolute temperature. At any given temperature the molecules of all gases have the same average kinetic energy

Q

What are the effects of:

  • volume increase at constant temperature
  • a temperature increase at constant volume
A
  • 1.pressure decrease

- 2.pressure increase

20
Q

What can we see in the deviations from ideal behavior?

A
  • all real gases fail to obey the relationship to some degree
  • Real molecules do have finite volumes and they do attract one another
21
Q

When can the ideal behavior deviate?

A
  • high pressure
  • > volumes of particles become more and more
  • low temperature
  • > move more slowly, chance of attraction increases
22
Q

Give the correction for volume in the van der Waals Equation

A
  • nRT/V-nb
  • b=constant describing the size of the gas particles
  • n=moles
  • (-nb) ->accounts for the volume occupied by the gas particles
23
Q

Give the correction for molecular attraction in the van der Waals Equation

A
  • (-n^2 *a/V^2) ->accounts for the attraction between the gas particles
  • a= constant describing the strength of the attraction
  • n=moles
24
Q

Give The van der Waals Equation

A

-P= (nRT)/V-nb - ((n^2)*a)/V^2

25
On what does physical properties depend?
- physical state | - intermolecular forces
26
Name some properties of gas
- assumes (übernehmen) both the volume and shape of its container - is compressible - flows readily (leicht, breitwillig) - diffusion within a gas occurs rapidly
27
Name some properties of liquids
- assumes the shape of the portion of the container it occupies - does not expand to fill container - is virtually incompressible - flows readily - diffusion within a liquid occurs slowly
28
Name some properties of solid
- retain its own shape and volume - is virtually incompressible - does not flow - diffusion within a solid occurs extremely slowly
29
Describe gases on molecular- level
- total disorder - much empty space - particles have complete freedom of motion - particles far apart
30
Describe liquids on molecular- level
- disorder - particles or clusters of particles are free to move relative to each other - particles close together
31
Describe crystalline solids on molecular- level
- ordered arrangement - particles are essentially in fixed positions - particles close together
32
Describe the transformation of gases, liquids, solids
- gas when cooled or compressed becomes liquid - liquid when cooled become solid - liquid when heated or reduced pressure become gas - solid when heated become liquid
33
What is an ion-dipole force? Where does it occur?
-An ion-dipole force exists btw an ion and the partial charge on the end of a polar molecule -Polar molecules are dipoles; they have a positive end and a negative end -Ex: HCl is a polar molecule because of the difference in the electronegativities of the H and Cl atoms
34
What is an dipole-dipole force? When does it occur; when effective; which is stronger ion-dipole or dipole- dipole?
- A dipole-dipole force exists btw neutral polar molecules - Polar molecules attract each other when the positive end of one molecule is near the negative end of another - Dipole-dipole forces are effective only when polar molecules are very close together - >They are generally weaker than ion-dipole forces
35
Where does hydrogen bonding exist?
-exists btw the hydrogen atom in a polar bond (particularly an H-F, H-O, or H-N bond) and an unshared electron pair on a nearby electronegative ion or atom (usually an F, O, or N atom on another molecule)
36
Effects of hydrogen bonding on water
- Water has a high melting point, a high specific heat, and a high heat of vaporization. - > the intermolecular forces btw H2O molecules are abnormally strong
37
What happens when water becomes ice?
- When water freezes, the molecules assume an ordered, open arrangement, leading to a less dense structure - This structure of ice permits the maximum number of hydrogen-bonding interactions btw the H2O molecules
38
What are the words condensation, sublimation, deposition, vaporisation standing for? Which of them are endothermic/ exothermic?
- condensation -> from gas to liquid (exo) - sublimation -> from solid to gas (end) - deposition -> from gas to solid (exo) - vaporisation -> from liquid to gas (end) - melting-> from solid to liquid (end) - freezing -> from liquid to solid (exo)
39
Give the heating curve for water
-from -25 to 0 -> ice -0 -> ice and liquid water (melting) -100 -> liquid water and vapor (vaporization) - 100 to 125 -> water vapor (-in °C)
40
Which forms can solid have?
- Solids can be either crystalline or amorphous (noncrystalline). - A crystalline solid is a solid whose atoms, ions, or molecules are ordered in well-defined arrangements ex: quartz and diamond - An amorphous solid is a solid whose particles have no orderly structure. They lack well-defined faces and shapes ex: rubber and glass
41
The repeating unit of solid is known as?
-the unit cell
42
When is something called primitive cubic, body-centered cubic, and face-centered cubic?
- primitive cubic -> if the constituent particles are present only at the corners - body-centered -> if the constituent particles are present at the corners and at one body- center - face-centered -> if the constituent particles are present at the 6 face centers along with corners - >NaCl, Zinc blende, Cu
43

- atoms or molecules - dipole- dipole forces, London dispersion forces, hydrogen bonds - fairly soft, low to moderately high melting point, poor thermal and electrical conduction - Argon, Ar; methane, CH4; sucrose, C12H22O11; Dry, Ice CO2
44
Name the form of unit particles, forces between particles, the properties, and examples of covalent network solid
- atoms connected in a network of covalent bonds - covalent bonds - very hard, very high melting point, often poor thermal and electrical conduction - Diamond, C; quartz, SiO2
45
Name the form of unit particles, forces between particles, the properties, and examples of ionic solid
- positive and negative ions - electrostatic attractions - hard and brittle, high melting point, poor thermal and electrical conduction - typical salts- for example, NaCl, Ca(NO3)2
46
Name the form of unit particles, forces between particles, the properties, and examples of metallic solid
- atoms - metallic bonds - soft to very hard, low to very high melting point, excellent thermal and electrical conduction, malleable (formbar) and ductile (biegsam) - all metallic elements- for example , Cu, Fe, Al, Pt
