Semester 2 Final Review Part 2 Flashcards
What is cohesion?
Attraction of liquid particles for each other
What is adhesion?
Attraction of liquid particles to particles of solid surfaces
Below the surface of a liquid, the particles are pulled?
Equally in all directions by cohesive forces
Surface particles are pulled only sideways and downwards because?
So they have a net downward force
Does it take energy to oppose net force and increase surface area?
Yes
What is surface tension?
The tendency of liquids to decrease surface area to the smallest size possible
A solid to a gas is called?
Sublimation
A gas to a solid is called?
Deposition
Does temperature change when a substance changes state?
No
It takes energy to overcome what?
The forces holding particles together
What is a good measure of the strength of the forces that hold particles together?
Boiling point and melting point
Do ionic substances have much higher forces of attraction than covalent substances?
Yes
Why do ionic substances have higher forces of attraction?
They are closer together
Compounds with smaller ions or bigger ions have the highest melting points?
Smaller ions because there are smaller distances between them
What are intermolecular forces?
Forces of attraction between molecules of covalent compounds
Are intermolecular forces weaker than the forces between atoms in the molecule?
Yes
What is a dipole?
One end of the molecule has a partial positive charge while the other has a partial negative charge
How will molecules orientate themselves in dipoles?
So that the opposite charges attract principle operates effectively
Is it true that very polar molecules have high dipole-dipole forces?
Yes
The more polar the molecules are,
The higher the boiling point of the substance
What is a special case of dipole-dipole interactions?
Hydrogen bonding
What is hydrogen bonding?
A hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom of one molecule which is attracted to two unshared electrons of another molecule
Is it true that compounds with hydrogen bonding have higher boiling points than comparable compounds?
Yes
When can a strong hydrogen bond form?
When a hydrogen atom is covalently bonded to very electronegative atoms in the upper-right part of the periodic table
How does a london dispersion force work?
When the electrons move toward one side of an atom or molecule, that side momentarily is negative and the other is positive
What is a london dispersion force?
The dipole-dipole force resulting from the uneven distribution of electrons and the creation of temporary dipoles
Nonpolar molecules can only experience what type of intermolecular force?
LDF
Polar covalent molecules experience both?
Dipole-dipole and LDF
Dipole-dipole force are generally stronger than?
LDF
Larger compounds (molar mass) have stronger?
LDF because its proportional to number os electrons present and molar mass
What is the enthalpy of fusion? ΔHfus
The energy added during melting or removed during freezing
What is the enthalpy of vaporization? ΔHvap
The energy added during vaporization or removed during condensation
Which one is greater: energy of vaporization or energy of fusion
Energy of vap. because more energy is needed to go from liquid to gas because particles are farther apart
Is this true? Molar enthalpy increases as a substance’s temperature increases. Molar enthalpy is highest at the boiling point.
Yes
What equation can be used to find the molar enthalpy of vaporization and fusion?
q=nΔHvap
q=nΔHfus
As a solid melts, the entropy of its particles ____
Increases
An increase of entropy due to a solid melting is?
entropy of fusion (ΔSfus)
As a liquid vaporizes, the entropy of the particles _______.
increases
An increase of entropy due to a liquid vaporizing is?
entropy of vaporization (ΔSvap)
A substances entropy of vaporization is much ____ than its entropy of fusion
Larger
Are intermolecular forces significant in the gaseous state?
No
What is the formula for Tmp?
ΔHfus/ΔSfus
What is the formula for Tbp?
ΔHvap/ΔSvap
What is a phase?
A region that has the same composition and properties throughout
What is dynamic equilibrium?
Particles are constantly moving between two or more phases yet there is no net change in the amount of substance in either phase
When does dynamic equilibrium exist?
When no heat is added or removed
