answer
question

question
| what happens to the temperature as liquid evaporates? |
answer
| it decreases |
question

answer
| gases and liquids |
question
| there is an iron cube and an aluminum cube that are the same temperature, how are their average kinetic energies different? |
answer
| there is no difference |
question
| what happens when energy is added to a boiling liquid? |
answer
| the temperature does not change |
question
| what happens when the vapor pressure of a liquid equals atmospheric pressure? |
answer
| the liquid BEGINS to boil |
question
| what is the solubility of a gas in a liquid directly proportional to? |
answer
| the pressure of gas above liquid |
question
| what doesn't ethanol dissolve in? |
answer
| turpentine |
question
| why does H2O have a greater boiling point than methane? |
answer
| because strong hydrogen bonds are found between water molecules |
question
| which of these are soluble and insoluble in water? CuSO4 HCl NaCl CF4 |
answer
| all of them are soluble except for CF4 |
question
| how many grams of NaOH should be added to H2O to prepare 0.75L of solution w/molarity of 0.020? |
answer
| .75L x (0.02/1L) x (40g/1 mol) = .6g |
question
| what is osmotic pressure? |
answer
| the downward push on the previously diluted solution that prevents any more solvent from passing through |
question
| how will and what happens as the volume of the concentrated solution increases? |
answer
| happens because more solvent is added and it results in an increase in pressure |
question
| what does boiling point elevation do? |
answer
| it changes the boiling point |
question
| what happens to the reaction as you decrease the volume? |
answer
| the forward reaction is favored so it shifts toward the product |
question
| what is boiling point proportional to? |
answer
| molality |
question
| what is the solution outside of a cell when it is hypotonic? |
answer
| less concentrated than the inside of the cell |
question
| what is the equilibrium constant a measure of? |
answer
| the extent to which a reaction proceeds to completion |
question
| why does a solute depress the freezing point? |
answer
| because the solute disrupts the crystal formation of the solvent |
question
| which subatomic particle controls properties? |
answer
| the electrons |
question
| what is the solubility product and what info does it give about an aqueous solution of an ionic solid? |
answer
| the sp is represented in equations by Ksp. It tells how soluble an ionic solid is in a certain aqueous solution. Increase in Ksp means highly soluble and a decrease in Ksp means not very soluble |
question
| what is the relationship between Le Chatelier's principle and the common ion? |
answer
| LC says when you put stress through temperature, concentration or pressure, the system works to relive the stress. When a common ion is added it increases the concentration of that ion and the system will shift to the left. |
question
| a volatile liquid is? |
answer
| one that evaporates easily |
question
| why does the equilibrium vapor pressure increase with an increase in temperature |
answer
| because there are more particles with higher kinetic energy that want to escape and therefore collide with the container they are in |
question
| a substance with a low heat of vaporization has what kind of intermolecular forces? |
answer
| weak intermolecular forces |
question
| why do gas particles have the most potential energy? |
answer
| because of the large spaces between the particles |
question
| what measures the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object |
answer
| temperature |
question
| when does deposition occur? |
answer
| when a gas is converted directly into a solid |
question
| when a solid is converted into a liquid is it endo or exothermic process? |
answer
| endothermic |
question
| when do all 3 states of matter exist in equilibrium |
answer
| at the triple point |
question
| when does dynamic equilibrium exist? |
answer
| when the rate of vaporization equals the rate of condensation |
question
| under what conditions wil a liquid boil |
answer
| when the vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure |
question
| electrolyte is...? |
answer
| a substance that dissolves in water to form a solution that conducts an electric current |
question
| molality is not affected by what? |
answer
| changes in temperature |
question
| a solution containing the maximum amount of solute to a given amount of solvent is |
answer
| super saturated |

answer
| aqueous |
question
| miscible includes |
answer

question
| what does Raults law state? |
answer
| that the magnitude of vapor pressure reduction is proportional to the solutions concentration |
question
| volatile is ? |
answer
| a substance that will become a gas under existing conditions |
question
| what effect does adding solute to solvent have on the freezing point? |
answer
| it lowers it |
question
| what effect does the addition of a solute have on the vapor pressure? |
answer
| when you add solute you have solute mixed with solvent and fewer solvent particles at surface because the solute particles cause an interference, so fewer can escape. |
question
