Unit 4 Flashcards
K
equilibrium constant, do not include solids in equation
le Chateliers principle
When a chemical system at equilibrium is disturbed in a change in a chemical property, the system adjusts in a way that opposes the change
Change in [ ]
System will shift opposite way
Thermal energy
System will shift towards the thermal energy q
Decrease in volume (increase in pressure)
System will shift towards the side with less gas molecules
What will not effect le Chateliers principle
Adding inner gasses, catalysts
Q=K
System is at equilibrium
Q>K
System must shift left to reach equilibrium
Q
System must shift right to reach equilibrium
Assumptions
If more than two decimal places over
Arrhenius theory
Acids produce H+ ions when dissolved. Bases produce OH- when dissolved
Bronsted- Lowry theory
Acids are proton (H+) donors, bases are proton receivers
amphoteric/ amphiprotic: a substance that can act as a B-L acid or base at the same time
Conjugate acid pairs
A pair of substances who’s molecular formula differ by one H+
Strong acid
100% ionized
Monotropic- releases only one H+
Ditropic- releases only two h+
Triprotic- releases only 3 H+
HCl, HBr, HI, H2SO4, HNO3, HCLO4
Weak acid
An acid that is less than 100% ionized, in reality, much less than 50%
Relative strength
The stronger the acid is, the weaker the conjugate base is etc.
