H.Chemistry final Flashcards
Explains the behavior of particles in terms of their motions
Kinetic theory
Energy of motion
Kinetic energy
4 properties of gases:
1-negligible volume
2-move in rapid, constant straight-line motion
3-Collide elastically
4-far apart with no attractive or repulsive force
Collision in which no kinetic energy is lost.
Elastic collision
Measure of average kinetic energy
Temperature
The _____________ the temperature, the _____ moving particles.
Higher
Faster
Temperature at which the motion of the particles theoretically ceases.
Absolute zero
Simultaneous collisions of billions of molecules within an object
Pressure
Force is created by _____.
Collisions
Pressure=?
Force
________
Area
Empty space, no collisions
Vacuum
Air molecule collisions
Atmospheric pressure
Typical sea level pressure
ATM
Barometric reading
mm Hg
Forces within a compound that hold it together
Intramolecular forces
Forces between compounds that hold these compounds together.
Intermolecular forces
Which two phases are fluid?
Liquids and gases
Why are liquids more dense than gases?
Because they have attractive forces
Temperature that a solid turns into a liquid
Melting point
The stronger the intermolecular force the _______ the melting point
Higher
Temperature at which a solid melts at 1.00 ATM atmosphere(101.3kPa) of pressure.
Normal melting point
Process of a liquid changing to a gas or vapor
Vaporization
Liquid to gas below boiling point
Happens only on the surface
Evaporation
How many particles escape during evaporation to become a gas
Only particles moving fast enough
As high speed particles escape this lowers the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature.
Cooling process
Increasing temperature will _______ vapor pressure
Increase
The temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure on a liquid.
Boiling point
Temperature when the vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure 1 atm=101.3kPa.
Normal boiling point.
Temperature of liquid _____ gets above the boiling point
Never
Three properties of solids:
1- tightly packed
2-do not flow(they vibrate)
3-incompressible
State the 3 states of a substance from least dense to the most dense
Gas liquid solid
The atoms, ions, or molecules are arranged in a very orderly, repeating 3D arrangement of particles known as the crystal lattice
Crystal
2 or more different substances of the same element in the same physical state.
Allotropes
A solid in which the particles are randomly arranged
Amorphous
The process in which a solid changes to a gas without passing through the liquid state
Sublimation
Gas or vapor becomes a liquid
Condensation
Vapor to a solid
Deposition
Liquid to a solid
Freezing
Diagram that shows relationship between solid,liquid, and gas states for a substance in a closed container at different temperatures and pressure.
Phase diagram
Temperature and pressure where all three common states of matter coexist in equilibrium
Triple point
Above this temperature, the substance can only exist as a gas.
Critical point
The amount of a substance that contains the same number of particles, 6.2x10^23 particles.
Moles
Consists of one element
Atom
Consists of two or more nonmetal elements
Molecule
Consists of a metal and a nonmetal/ NH4+
Formula unit
Unit for molar mass
g/mol
Simplest whole number ratio of moles of the atoms in a substance.
Empirical formula
Some multiple of the empirical formula.
Molecular formula
Equation to convert an empirical formula to a molecular formula.
X= molar mass
____________
Empirical formula
