Q

Three assumptions of the kinetic theory as it applies to gases?

A

Particles in gas considered to be small, hard spheres with insignificant volume.

Motion of the particles are rapid, constant, and random.

All collisions between particles in gas are elastic.

Q

Relationship between the temperature in kelvin and the averaged kinetic energy of particle?

A

Kelvin temp of a substance is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy or the particles of the substance.

Q

What factors determine the physical properties of a liquid?

A

The interplay between the disruptive motions of particles Ina liquid and the attractions among the particles determines the physical properties of a liquid.

Q

When can dynamic equilibrium exist between liquid and it’s vapor?

A

The rate of evaporation of liquid equals the rate of condensation of vapor.

16
Q

Under what conditions does boiling occur?

A

When liquid is heated to a temperature at which particles throughout a liquid have enough kinetic energy to vaporize, liquid begins to boil.

17
Q

What’s Boiling point?

A

Temperature which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to external pressure of the liquid.

18
Q

What’s Normal boiling point?

A

Defined as the boiling point if a liquid at a pressure of 101.3 kPa

19
Q

What’s Melting point?

A

Temperature at which solid changes into liquid.

20
Q

What’s Freezing point?

A

Temperature at which liquid changes into solid.

21
Q

What’s Crystal?

A

Particles arranged orderly, repeating three dimensional pattern called crystal lattice.

22
Q

What determined the shape of a crystal?

A

It reflects the arrangement if the particles within a solid.

23
Q

What’s Unit cell?

A

Smallest group of particles within a crystal tags retains the geometric shape of a crystal.

24
Q

What’s Sublimation?

A

The change from solid to a vapor without passing through the liquid state.

25
Q

When can sublimation occur?

A

In solid with vapor pressures that excess atmospheric pressure at or near room temperature.

26
Q

What’s Phase diagram?

A

Gives conditions of temperature and pressure at which substance exists as solid liquid or gas.

27
Q

What’s Triple point?

A

Describes the only set of conditions at which all three phases can exist in equilibrium with one another.

28
Q

How do chemists use balances chemical equations?

A

Calculate how much reactant is needed or how much prosecutor will be formed in a reaction.

29
Q

Stoichiometry?

A

The calculation of quantities in chemical reaction is a subject of chemistry
