Nonpolar because attractive forces are present in polar gases.

A substance added which decreases surface tension.

The temp and pressure at which a substance can exist in equilibrium in the liquid, solid and gas state.

The process of conversion of a liquid to gas at a temp too low to boil.

Conversion of gas to the liquid state.

When the rate of evaporation equals the rate of condensation, the system is at equilibrium.

the pressure exerted by the vapor at equilibrium

the temp at which the vapor pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the atmostpheric pressure.

The boiling point lowers

Dipole-Dipole interactions- attractive forces between polar molecules.

London forces- as electrons are in continous motion, a nonpolar molecule could have and instantaneous dipole.(short-lived)

-Exist between all molecules.

-the only attractive force between nonpolar atoms or molecules.

Requirements: molecules have hydrogen directly bonded to O, N, or F 

When a gas under pressure is allowed to escape into a lower pressure, cooling occurs

the temp at which the substance will become a gas under any pressure.

Gases liquify under sufficient pressure if their temp is under the critical temp.

1.the atoms or molecules are in constant, random motion.

2.a gas is mostly empty space

3.all of the atoms and molec behave independently.

4.they collide with each other and the walls of container without losing energy. energy is transferred from one atom to another.

5. the avg kinetic energy increases or decreases in proportion to absolute temp.

Moler per liter (molarity)

;

or

;

Equivalents per liter (eq/L) --emphasis on charge

1.Vapor pressure lowering

2.Boiling point elevation

3.freezing point depression

4.osmotic pressure

Raoult's law- when a nonvolatile solute is added to a solvent, vapor pressure of the solvent decreases in proportion ot the concentration of the solute.

-solute molecules serve as a barrier to the escape of solvent molecules resulting in a decrease in the vapor pressure.

Solute molecules interfere with the rate at which liquid water molecules associate to form the solid state.

-an equal conc of NaCl will affect the f.p. twice as much as glucose.(NaCl 2 particles, glucose 1)

If a solute is present, the increase in boiling temp is necessary to raise the vapor pressure to atmospheric pressure.

-an electrolyte will affect the boiling point to a greater degree than a nonelectrolyte of the same concentration.

the pressure that must be exerted to stop the flow of water across a selectively permeable membrane by osmosis.

The molarity of particles in solution.

mol particle/L

have identical osmotic pressures and no osmotic pressure difference across the cell membrane.

Osmolarity inside the cell and outside are the same.

solute concentration of fluid higher than inside the cell causing water to flow into the surrounings  causing crenation(collapse)

water will move from area of higher conc to lower.

HCO3-  Form in which most waste CO2 is carried out of the body.

-blood clotting factors

-antibodies

-albumins(carriers of nonpolar substances which cannot dissolve in water)

-Proteins are transported as a colloidal suspension

-molecules and atoms a reaction mixture are in constant random motion

-they frequently collide with each other

-some collisions, those with sufficient energ, will break bonds in molecules

-when bonds are broken, new bonds may be formed and products result

the absolute value for energy stored in a chemical system cannot be measured.

-the change in energy during these chemical changes can be measured.

energy release= (-) exothermic

energy absorbed=(+) endothermic

states that the universe spontaneously tends toward increasing disorder or randomness.

high entropy- disordered

low entropy-well organized

occur without any external energy input.

-most are exothermic

-higher in entropy(more disorganized)

-usually endothermic

-products with lower entropy

a collision that produces product molecules.

-only effective collisions lead to chemical reaction.

an unstable state that the reaction proceeds from reactants to products.

-this cannot be isolated.

-structure of the reacting species

-molecular shape and orientation

-concentration of reactants

-temp of reactants

-physical state of reactants

-presence of a catalyst

-oppositely charged species react faster(dissociated ions, very low activation energy.

-ions with same charge do not react

-large molecules may obstruct the reactive part of the molecule.

-only molecular collisions with correct orientation lead to product formation.

-rate will increase as concentration increases .

IE: more collisions per unit time and more reactant per unit volume.

-rate increases as the temp increases

-increased kinetic energy, inc speed of particles, more collisions

Liquid>Gas>Solid

the synthesis of ammonia facilitated by a solid phase catalyst.

-diatomic gases bind to the surface

-bonds weakened

-newly formed NH3 leaves the solid surface

the rate of the forward process in a reversible reaction is exactly balanced by the rate of the reverse process.

Ex: sugar in H20, it may look like nothing more is dissolving, but actually some of sugar continues to be dissolved and at the same rate solid sugar molecules are being formed.

the extent to which reactants have converted to products.

-addition of products or reactants does not affect the value of the equilibrium constant.

a base dissociates to form H⁺

an acid dissociates to form OH^-

an acid is a proton(H⁺) donor.

a base is a proton(H⁺) acceptor.

a substance possesing both acid and base properties.

water can act as an acid or base.

strength is a measure of degree of dissociation of an acid or base in solution, independant of concentration.

-acids and bases are classified as strong when the reaction with water is 100% complete. 

Acids with the greatest proton donating capability (strongest acids) have the weakest conjugate bases.

Good proton acceptors(strong bases) have weak conjugate acids.

dissociation of acids and bases is called ionization.

-water goes through autoionization (self-ionization)

-water is a weak electrolyte and a poor conductor of electricity.

because of their exothermic reaction with water present on and in the skin.

-bases react with proteins, affecting the skin and eyes.

this refers to the product of hydronium and hydroxide ion concentration in pure water.

-the ion product is a temperature dependant quantity.

-It equals 1.0 x 10^-14 at 25 C

gauges the hydronium ion concentration and reflects degree of acidity or basicity of a soln.

-if add an acid (H₃O), (OH decreases)

-if add a base (OH), (H₃O decreases)

the reaction of an acid with a base to produce a salt and water.

-when writing a net, balanced equation remove spectator ions(dont change)

-the analytical techniqu to determine the concentration of an acid or base is titration

donates or accepts more than one H⁺ ion per each formucla unit.

Ex: H₂SO₄

a solution which resists large changes in pH when either acids or bases are added.

- they establish equilibrium between a weak acid and its conj base or a weak base and its conj acid.

OH reacts with H₃O to produce water, acid dissociates to replace H₃O.

therefore shift to right occurs.

the amount of strong acid or strong base that a buffer can neutralize without significantly changing the pH.
