Test 4 Flashcards
Heterogeneous mixtures
- not uniform
- properties vary with sample
homogeneous mixtures
- uniform
- every sample is the same
solute
- substance being dissolved
- present in smallest amount
solvent
- substance doing the dissolving
- present in largest amount
molarity
mol/L
moles
volume * concentration
▲Hsoln=
▲Hsolute+▲Hsolvent+▲Hmixture
hydrophilic
polar molecules
hydrophobic
non-polar molecules
polar solution
polar molecule will dissolve
nonpolar solution
nonpolar molecule will dissolve
cations (+)
migrate to the negative electrode
anions (-)
migrate to the positive electrode
electrolytes
substances whose aqueous solutions conduct electricity: ions, ionic and SA
nonelectrolytes
substances whose aqueous solutions do NOT conduct electricity: Molecules
K=
products over reactants
coulomb’s law
F= kq1q2/er^2
when q1 and q2 > 1
ionic solids with ions have a high charge, insoluble
when q1 and q2 = 1
ionic solids with ions have a low charge, soluble
Ions 0.01-0.10 M
moderately soluble
ions > 0.10 M
soluble-no precipitate
Ions < 0.01 M
insoluble, forms precipitate
oxidizing agent
gaining electrons, oxidation # decreases, reduction half rxn
reducing agent
losing electrons, oxidation # increases, oxidizing half reaction
reduction 1/2 rxn
electrons on reactant side
oxidation 1/2 rxn
electrons on product side
spontaneous redox reactions
electrons fall downward
nonspontaneous redox reactions
electrons go up
best oxidizing agent
lowest energy empty orbital
best reducing agent
highest energy full orbital
▲G=
-nFEcell
n=
moles of electrons transferred in a redox reaction
E=
Ecathode-Eanode
▲Ecell=
Efinal-Einitial
reduction compartment
the one with the cathode
oxidizing compartment
the one with anode
electrode with metal
should be the same element and charge
electrons should transfer
from anode to electrode
compartments matter
on where the anode and cathodes are
Erxn =
Either Ered-Eox or Efinal-Einitial
highest voltage
cathode, on bottom
lowest voltage
anode, on the top

Losing Electrons Oxiding Gaining Electrons Reducing
salt bridge cations
migrate to the cathode
salt bridge anions
migrate to the anode
cathode electrode
grows
anode electrode
shrinks
cathode compartment
decreases
anode compartment
increases
