A

bigger

51
Q

V ideal is __________ V real

A

bigger

52
Q

What is the van der waal equation? what is it for?

A

for calculation real gases

(P + an^2/V^2) (V - nb) = nRT

53
Q

What is Graham’s law of effusion? What is effusion in gases? can you say it in terms of V and m?

A

rate of effusion of gas A / …. of Gas B = squareroot(molar mass B/molar mass A)

effusion is the escape o f a gas molecule through a very tiny hole.
v1/v2 = squareroot (m2/m1)

54
Q

what is the equation for a reaction rate?

A
55
Q

what are the 3 requirements for a reaction to occur?

A
56
Q

what factors can affect the rate constant of a reaction?

A

Temp, and activation energy.

57
Q

in solutions, intermediate concentrations is approximately

A

zero

58
Q

are intermediates of a reaction detectable/isolatable?

A

yes. what is something that is not detectable/isolatable?

59
Q

what is the difference between the rate law and the rate equation?

A

rate law is Rate = k[R]^r

equation is Rate = - 1/r Dalta[R]/time

60
Q

in equilibrium, K depends on __________ while Q depends on _________

A

K depends on temp only.

Q depends on both temp and Concentration

61
Q

what is the equation for Delta G (using Delta G naught)

what is the equation for Delta G naught?

A
62
Q

T or F:

in Le chaliteh principle, the stress to the system can be minimized but not fully eliminated.

A

T

63
Q

does the addition of inert gases (i.e. gases that do not react with the system) cause stress to the system? what situation is an exception?

A

no. bcz inert gases do not affect the partial pressure of the reactants or products. the exception is the addition of inert gas to a flexible container bcz more inert gas = higher pressure = higher volume = Ptotal of the system is lower = shift toward the side with more gas moels.

64
Q

what happens to the equilibrium constant when u reverse a reaction?

A

it receprocate.

65
Q

how to find the equilibrium constant of a reaction with multiple steps?

A

you have to MULTIPLY the Keq for the individual steps (remember to reciprocate any Keq if you inverted a reaction).

66
Q

what is molar solubility?

A

the amount of a substance that can dissolve in a specific solvent at a specific temperature.

67
Q

Given the average rate for the following reaction is 2.25 × 10–2 M/min, how long will it take to generate 0.45 moles of NO2(g) in one liter of solution?

2 N2O5(g) → 4 NO2(g) + O2(g)
Question 8 Answer Choices
  	A.  15 minutes
  	B.  5 minutes 
  	C.  10 minutes
  	D.  20 minutes
A

68
Q 
2 SO2(g) + O2(g)  <=> 2 SO3(g)
A chemist adds a reagent to the following equilibrated reaction and immediately observes the forward and reverse reaction rates to increase by 2.14 and 2.29, respectively. Which of the following was most likely added to the reaction?
Question 9 Answer Choices
  	A.  SO3(g)
  	B.  V2O5(s)
  	C.  SO2(g)
  	D.  O2(g)
A

B
The situation here describes the addition of a catalyst to an equilibrated reaction. Catalysts increase the rates of both the forward and reverse reaction by decreasing the activation energy. Addition of a reactant (SO2(g) and O2(g)) would initially increase the rate of the forward reaction alone while adding a product (SO3(g)) would initially increase only the rate of the reverse reaction. Thus V2O5(s) must serve as a catalyst in this reaction and results in the observed rate changes.

69
Q

what are the steps for the dissolution of an electrolyte? Is it endo or exo?

A

agitation (endothermic bcz u break the bonds of water with each other)

dissociation (endothermic bcz u break the bond inside the electrolyte molecule)

solvation (exothermic bcz u form bonds between water and the electrolyte)

70
Q

what are the dissolution steps for polar non-electrolyte? endo or exo?

A

agitation (endothermic bcz u break the bonds of water with each other)

solvation (exothermic bcz u form bonds between water and the electrolyte)

no dissociation (bcz polar non-electrolyte dont dissociate

71
Q

what are the disolution steps for non-electrolyte? endo or exo?

A

only agitation (endo bcz u break water bonds with each other).

72
Q

Reducing agents have __________ oxidizing potential and a ________ reducing potential

A

high oxidizing and low reducing potential.

73
Q

galvanic cells have to be attached to ______

A

resistor

74
Q

A

power source

75
Q

in a cell, anode is where (reduction/oxidation) occurs.

A

oxidation

76
Q

movement of current is (toward/away from) it.

A

toward the anode. (electrons move from anade to cathode)

77
Q

movement of electrons is (toward/away) from anades.

A

away from the anade.

78
Q

does positve or negative charges attract toward the anode?

A

negative charge (anion ~ anode). to replace all the e that was lost.

79
Q

in a galvanic cell, cathode is the ________ and anode is the ______

A 
cathode = +
anode = _
80
