Term
precipitation reactions
Definition

process in which soluble ionic reactants yeild an insoluble solid product that falls out of the solution, there by removing some of the dissolved ions

-anions and ions switch partners

-(aq)+(aq)--->(aq)+(s)

Term
oxidation-reduction (redox)
Definition
one or more electrons are transferred between partners
Term
electrolytes
Definition
-ionic substances that dissolve in water producing solutions of ions
-when ionic substance dissolves in water the solution contains seperate cation and anions surrounds by water because the presents of charged ions the ionic solution conducts electricity
-a solution that completely dissociates into ions is a stronger electrolyte than one that only partially dissociates into ions
Term
to predict a precipitation reaction
Definition
you must know the solubility
-if a substance has low solubility in water it's likely to precipitate
Term
solubility
Definition
solubility is most favorible when there is a strong attraction of solute particals to solvent particals

1. a compound is likely solube if it contains the cations:

  • group 1A: Li+,Na+,Rb+,Cs+

2.a compound is likely solube if it contains the anions:

  • group 7A: Cl-,Br-,I-

-except if paired with Ag+,Hg2+,Pb2+

  • NO3-,ClO4-,CH3CO2-,SO42-

-except if paired with Ba2+,Hg2+,Pb2+ sulfates

Term
acids
Definition
substance that dissociates in water to give H+
Term
bases
Definition
substances that dissociate in water to give HO-
Term
oxiacids
Definition

acids that contain oxygen and hydrogen and another element

Term
neutralization equations
Definition
when acids and bases are mixed right both acidic and basic properties dissappear because of neutralization reaction and produce water and salt
Term
acid base neutralization reactions
Definition
-always produce salt
-water is only produced in neutralization reactions that involve a strong base
if the carbonate ion is involved the reaction may produce carbon gas
Term
hydration
Definition
(when water is the solvent) when an ionic solid dissolves in a liquid the ions dissociate and become surroundedd by solvent molecules
Term
strong acids
Definition

acids that dissociate to a large extent and are strong electrolytes

-HClO4,H2SO4,HBr,HCl,HNO3

Term
weak acids
Definition

acid that dissociate only and small percent and are weak electrolytes

-H3PO4,HF,CH3CO2H

Term
strong bases
Definition

most are metal hydroxides and are strong electrolytes

-NAOH,KOH,Ba(OH)2,Ca(OH)2

Term
suante arrhenius
Definition
the man who discovered the essential nature of acids through solution conductivity
Term
weak bases
Definition

weak electrolyte

-NH3

Term
naming acids
Definition
the names of oxoacids are related to the names of corresponding oxoanions, with the -ite or ate ending of the anion replaced by -ous acid or -ic acid and the acid w/ more oxygens has an ic ending
Term
energy
Definition
capacity to supply heat or do work, either kinetic or potential
Term
kinetic energy
Definition

(Ek) energy of motion

Ek=1/2mv2

m=mass

v=velocity in meters per second

Term
potential energy
Definition
stored energy
Term
temperature
Definition
the measure of kinetic energy of molecular motion
Term
heat
Definition
the energy transferred from one object to another is the result of temperature difference between them
Term
work
Definition
the distance moved times the force that opposes the motion
-w=Fxd
Term
internal energy (E)
Definition

-sum of all kinetic and potential energies for every molecule or ion in the system -any energy that flows from the system to the surroundings has a negative sign because the system has lost it (Efinal is smaller than Einitial)

-any energy that flows to the system from the surroundings has a positive sign because the system has gained it

Term
the 1st law of thermodynamics
Definition
-the total system internal energy of an isolated system is constant
-energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be converted from one form to another
- the energy of the universe stays constant
Term
state function
Definition
a function or property depends only on the present state or condition of the system, not the pat it used to arrive at that state
- pressure, volume, and temperature are all state functions but work and heat are not
-reveribile
Term
heat capacity (C)
Definition

the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of an object or substance by a given amount

-C=q/ΔT

-the greater the heat capcity the greater the amount of heat needed to produce a given temperature change

Term
ΔE
Definition
  • ΔE=q+w=q-PΔV, q= transferred heat
  • if a system does work on its surroundings (E flows out of the system) w is negative, if the surroundings do work of the system (E flows into the system) w is positive where as -q has a positive sign if the system gains heat and a negative sign if the system loses heat
  • q=ΔE+PΔV
  • qv=ΔE at constant volume (ΔV=0)
  • ΔE=(KJ/°C)(°C)
Term
exothermic
Definition
if the products of a reaction have less enthalpy than the reactants then the heat has flowed out of the system to the surroundings and ΔH has a positive sign
Term
petroleum
Definition
  • thought to be decaded remains of acient marine organisms
  • must be seperated into fractions (by boiling) in order to be used effeciently
  • commercial uses include gasoline and kerosene all w/ different numbers of carbon atoms
Term
coal
Definition
fossil fuel that was formed from the remains of plants that were buried and exposed to high pressure and heat over time
Term
natural gas
Definition
fossil fuel that was formed by primarily methane
Term
ΔH=ΔE
Definition
if no volume changes occurs and no work is done then ΔH and ΔE are the same
Term
heat of combustion (combustion enthalpy)
Definition
the standard enthalpy for the reaction of 1 mole of substance with oxygen
Term
standard heat of formation
Definition

the enthalpy change Δ°Hf for the formation of 1 mole of a substance in its standard stae from it constituent elements in their standard states

  • ΔHreaction=Δ°Hf(products)-Δ°Hf(reactants)

-KJ=(a mols)(A KJ/mol)+(b mols)(B KJ/mol)-(c mols)(C KJ/mol)

Term
energy of combustion
Definition

H2(g)+1/2O2(g)--->H2O(l)

CH4(g)+2O2(g)--->CO2(g)+2H2O(l)

Term
bond dissociation energy
Definition
the amount of enery that must be supplied to break a chemical bond in an isolated molecule in the gaseous state and is thus the amount of energy released when the bond forms
Term
hess's law
Definition
the overall enthalpy change for a reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps in the reaction
Term
heat of reaction (ΔH)
Definition

ΔH=ΔE+PΔV

enthaply change:

(specific heat•added mass•temperature change)÷(moles of sustance)

Term
intensive property
Definition

have values that do not depend on sample amount

-temperature, melting point

Term
extensive property
Definition

have values that do depend on the amount of sample

-length, volume

Term
calculating the amount of heat released
Definition

1. convert grams to moles

-grams • 1mole/amu

2. multiply answer by Δ°H given over the number of moles in the problem

-x moles • KJ/x moles in the equation= KJ
