    Study Notes

    Principles of Physical Chemistry

    • Chemistry is the study of matter, its properties, and the changes it undergoes.
    • Chemical principles are present in everyday activities, from food preparation to environmental processes.
    • Chemistry is essential for improving healthcare, conserving resources, protecting the environment, and providing energy.
    • Chemists develop new materials, substances, and combinations of substances with desired properties.
    • Chemists measure and model the properties of matter, including identifying drug molecules.
    • Chemists may work in labs, research environments, developing theories or models, doing field work, writing, and or teaching.

    The Study of Chemistry

    • Chemistry studies matter, its properties, and changes.
    • Chemical principles apply in everyday and complex processes.
    • Tailoring substance properties for specific applications involves controlling composition and structure.
    • Chemistry is key to understanding the changes and properties of matter.

    Classification of Matter

    • Matter exists in three states at room temperature: solid, liquid, and gas.
    • Other states include plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate.
    • Solids have a definite shape and volume; their particles are tightly packed.
    • Liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container; their particles are less tightly packed.
    • Gases have no definite shape or volume; their particles are widely spaced and move freely.

    Units of Measurement

    • The metric system uses a decimal system for measuring units.
    • SI units are the preferred, internationally recognized metric units used in scientific measurements.
    • Units of length include kilometers, decimeters, centimeters, millimeters, micrometers, nanometers, picometers, and angstroms.
    • Units of volume include cubic meters and cubic centimeters.
    • Units of pressure include pascals, atmospheres, and torr.
    • SI units for temperature are Kelvin.

    Gases

    • Gases are characterized by expansibility, compressibility, and diffusion.
    • Gases fill the container they are in.
    • Gases exert pressure in all directions.
    • Gas pressure increases with heat.
    • Gas volume increases with heat, if the volume is adjustable.

    The Gas Laws

    • Boyle's Law: At constant temperature, the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional.
    • Charles's Law: At constant pressure, the volume of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
    • Gay-Lussac's Law: At constant volume, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature..
    • Avogadro's Law: Equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure contain equal numbers of molecules, or equal numbers of moles.
    • Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT.

    Solutions

    • A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
    • Solute is the substance present in a smaller amount.
    • Solvent is the substance present in a larger amount.
    • Factors affecting solubility include temperature and pressure.
    • Solubility of most solid solutes in water increases with temperature.
    • Solubility of gases in water decreases with temperature.
    • Solubility of gases in water increases with increase in pressure.
    • Solutions are classified by the states of solute and solvent: Gas-Gas, Gas-Liquid, Gas-Solid, Liquid-Gas, Liquid-Liquid, Liquid-Solid, Solid-Gas, Solid-Liquid, Solid-Solid.

    Concentration of Solutions

    • Concentration is the amount of solute present in a given amount of solution.
    • Concentration is expressed in different ways including percentage by weight, percentage by volume, parts per million, parts per billion and mole fraction.
    • Molarity (M) is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.
    • Molality (m) is the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.

    Deviations from Ideal Gas Behavior

    • Real gases deviate from ideal behavior at high pressures and low temperatures.
    • Van der Waals equation corrects for the volume of gas molecules and intermolecular attractive forces, yielding a more accurate description of real gases.

    Physical Changes (Changes of State)

    • Changes of state (phase changes) are physical changes.
    • Melting, freezing, vaporization, condensation, sublimation, and deposition are examples of phase changes.
    • Phase changes involve changes in energy (heat transfer).
