Test 3 + some final stuff - Chem 112- Summer Flashcards
Ksp
solubility equilibrium/solubility product constant, for ionic compounts treated as insoluble typically. Since it is a salt –><– cation + anion, the salt is a solid and is not included in the equilibra
molar solubility
moles/L of a saturated solution (so its the x in an ICE table or the E)
solubility
number of grams of solute in 1L of saturated solution
when Q < Ksp
no precipitate
when Q > Ksp
precipitate
Q= Ksp
no precipitate
factors that affect solubility
common ion effect, pH, formation of complex ions
common ion effect
suppresses the ionization of an electrolyte when another electrolyte (that contains a common ion) is added
how does pH affect solubility
solubility increases as the pH decreases (i.e. if you add an acid, the solubility will increase and move forward)
thermodynamics
the science dealing with heat and the relationship with other forms of energy. thermodynamics can predit whether a process will occur (but it does NOT predict amount of time required for process)
spontaneous process
occurs without outside intervention under specific set of conditions
nonspontaneous
does not occur without outside intervention (CONTINUAL input of external energy)
first law of thermodynamics
any change in internal energy is due to either heat or work (this energy can be kinetic or potential)
change in U
change in U = q + w
U is change in internal energy. q is heat. w is work.
thermochemistry
the study of the heat absorbed or released during chemical and physical changes
what is work
force applied x distance traveled. work involves movement
enthalpy letter
H,, change in H
enthapy def
a thermodynamic quantity.
change in H= change in U + P(change in V)
but it is also change in H = q (aka heat)
exothermic processes tend to be what
spontaneous. BUT this is not guarenteed
Entropy letter
S,, change in S
entropy def
entropy is a state function. it is a thermodymanic quantity that measures the amount of disorder in a system. to predict spontainiety, both enthapy and entropy must be known.
boltzman’s def
measure of disorder. S=KlnW
as temp increases ENTROPY of a system does what
decreases
S of different states
S gas > S liquid > S solid
more microstates = what
higher entropy
K = what
boltzmann’s constant (1.38 x 10^-23 J/K)
W= what
microstates (number of diff arrangements)
probabulity distributiion of microstates
W=X^N
X= number of cells in a volume
N = number of molecules
change in entropy
change in S system= S final- S initial
standard entropy
absolute entropy at 1 atm
choose one:
S increases with (larger/ smaller) molar mass
larger. entropy increases with larger molar mass
S increases with (more/ less) molar complexity
more molar complexity
change in S universe
= change in S system + change in S surroundings
