Topic 1: Stoichiometry Flashcards
What is a homogenous mixture
All substances in mixture in the same phase (NOT STATE) essentially everything is mixed so well you can’t see the difference between them - no visible boundary separating it into parts.
What is a heterogenous mixture
Substances all in different phases
Mixtures and their individual properties
They retain their individual properties/they are not chemically bonded
Describe a solid
Fixed shape
Can vibrate about a fixed point
Heat can cause enough vibration to overcome attractive forces –> melts
Describe a liquid
Takes shape of container, fixed volume
Has translational velocity (diffusion)
Heat and pressure of vapour can cause it to boil and evaporate
Describe a gas
Widely spaced particles, fill container
Pressure in a container is caused by collisions with the container
IMF is negligible
Solid to gas
Sublimation
Gas to solid
deposition
liquid to gas without boiling
vaporization
Liquid to solid
freezing
gas to liquid
condensation
is vaporization endo or exo
endothermic because it absorbs energy to increase kinetic energy to change to a vapour
What is avagadros constant
6.02 *10^23
What is an isotope
Same amount of protons and electrons but different mass –> different amount of neutrons
Symbol for relative mass
