Q

order the IMFs from weakest to strongest

A

london dispersion < dipole dipole < h bonding < ion-dipole

24
Q

which is has good conductivity in water- an ionic or covalent substance? why?

A

ionic - ionic compounds can dissociate into ions

25
Q

what are ionic oxides

A

basic anhydrides

26
Q

what are covalent oxides

A

acidic anhydrides

27
Q

what are the two factors that affect the position of equilibrium

A

1) the ability of R to draw electrons from O-H
2) the stability of the anion (the further right the stronger the acid

28
Q

t/f like dissolves like

A

t

29
Q

what is molar heat capacity

A

the amount of heat required to raise the temp of 1 mol of a substance per unit of mol

30
Q

is pressure constant in a calorimeter

A

yes

31
Q

why do we find the extrapolated temp from the graph of a calorimeter experiment

A

because calorimeters are not 100% efficient

32
Q

how do you draw the line on a calorimeter graph

A

draw from the end point to the max, then extend to the y axis

33
Q

is heat capacity (C) intensive or extensive? why?

A

intensive- since the substance does not matter

34
Q

is specific heat capacity intensive or extensive? why?

A

extensive- the amount of substance is needed to calculate c

35
Q

is molar heat capacity intensive or extensive? why?

A

extensive- the amount of substance is needed to calculate Cm

36
Q

what happens when excited atoms return to a lower state

A

a photon is emitted

37
Q

what are applications of emission line spectra

A

flame test to identify elements, fireworks, florescent lights

38
Q

in what order does wavelength of the visible spectrum increase

A

violet<blue<green<yellow<orange<red

39
Q

what is the equation for the transition between energy levels

A

delta E = Efinal - Einitial = -Z^(2)Rh( (1/nf^2) + (1/ni^2))

40
Q

what is a spectrometer used for

A

obtain the values of absorption (A) as the wavelength of the incident light is varied.

41
Q

what does a larger A value obtained from a spectrometer mean

A

more of the incident light is absorbed

42
Q

what does a longer wavelength of emitted photon correspond to

A

a lower energy

43
Q

which emitted photon has the shortest wavelength

A

n = inf, it has the largest change in energy

44
Q

what is the most abundant metal

A

Al

45
Q

what is the main ore of Al

A

bauxite

46
Q

how is Al extracted

A

via the hall heroult process

47
Q

what is the ratio of reactants called

A

stoichiometric factor

48
Q

what is the stoichiometric point

A

the equivalence point

49
Q

where is equivalence point of a titration

A

when chemically equivalent quantities of reactants have been reached

50

where is the endpoint of a titration

A

when the colour change has been observed
