Unit Six Flashcards
Liquid
Medium packed particles, medium motion
Gas
Loosely packed particles, high motion
Temperature
A measure of the average kinetic energy particles of a substance have
Heat
Transfer of kinetic energy from a hotter object to a cooler one
Melting
Solid to liquid
Freezing
Liquid to solid
Vaporization
Liquid to gas
Condensation
Gas to liquid
Sublimation
Gas to solid
Deposition
Solid to gas
Fahrenheit to Celsius
F = 1.8 C + 32
Celsius to Fahrenheit
C = (F - 32)/1.8
Celsius and Kelvin
K = C + 273
Pressure conversions
1 atm = 14.7 psi = 101 kPa = 7.60x10^2 mm Hg (torr)
STP
Standard temperature and pressure, 1 atm and 273 K
Intramolecular forces
Hold the atoms of a molecule together
Ex. Ionic bonds, polar covalent bonds, nonpolar covalent bonds
Intermolecular forces
Hold molecules of a substance together
Ex. Dipole-dipole, hydrogen bonding, dispersion forces
Dispersion forces
Weak forces resulting from temporary shifts in electron densities, stronger for larger particles
In nonpolar molecules, bigger molecules = bigger force
Weakest type of intermolecular bonds
Dipole-dipole forces
Attraction between oppositely charged region of polar molecules
Polar covalent
Middle strength
Hydrogen bonds
Dipole-dipole attraction occurring between molecules containing hydrogen boned to fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen
Strongest because greatest difference in electronegativity
Polar covalent
Strongest type
Are hydrogen bonds or ionic bonds stronger
Ionic because hydrogen is partial charges and ionic is full charges
Liquid density
Denser than gases
Liquid compression
Cannot compress a liquid (definite volume)
Liquid fluidity
Particles in a liquid do not have fixed locations
Liquid viscosity
A measure of resistance of a liquid to flow
