    Study Notes

    Stoichiometry and Calculations

    • Stoichiometry focuses on mass relationships between reactants and products in balanced chemical equations.
    • Calculation steps: convert grams of given substance to moles, then convert moles of given to moles of unknown, and finally convert moles of unknown to grams.

    Percent Yield and Pressure

    • Percent yield formula: % yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100.
    • Pressure formula: Pressure = force/unit area; pressure is inversely related to area.

    Standard Temperature and Pressure

    • Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) values: 0°C, 273 K, 760 mm Hg, 1 atm = 101.3 kPa.

    Moles and Volume at STP

    • 1 mole equates to 6.02 x 10^23 entities.
    • At STP, 6.02 x 10^23 entities occupy 22.4 L.

    Conversion Between Measures

    • Conversion order for grams, moles, and liters: Liters > Moles > Grams.
    • 1 L equals 1,000 mL.

    Graham's Law of Effusion

    • Gas effusion/diffusion rates are inversely proportional to the square root of their molar masses.
    • Equation: Rate A/Rate B = √(MMB/MMA).

    Heating and Cooling Curves

    • Heating Curve: solid > melting > liquid > boiling > gas; potential energy (PE) increases at plateaus and kinetic energy (KE) increases during the slopes.
    • Cooling Curve: gas > condensation > liquid > freezing > solid; PE decreases at plateaus and KE decreases during slopes.

    Boiling Points and Pressure Effects

    • At sea level, water boils at 100°C (760 mm Hg).
    • Lower atmospheric pressure makes it easier for a liquid to vaporize, reducing its boiling point (e.g., water boils at 94°C).

    Thermodynamic Reactions

    • Endothermic reactions absorb heat, increasing PE as matter transitions from ordered to less ordered states.
    • Exothermic reactions release heat, decreasing PE as matter moves from less ordered to more ordered states.

    System Types

    • In open systems, compounds can escape; in closed systems, like a sealed glass of water, evaporated molecules cannot escape.

    Equilibrium

    • Equilibrium is a dynamic state where opposing changes occur at equal rates in a closed system.
    • Condensation and evaporation are equal at equilibrium.

    Phase Changes

    • Melting (solid to liquid), sublimation (solid to gas), freezing (liquid to solid), vaporization (liquid to gas), condensation (gas to liquid), and deposition (gas to solid) represent the various phase changes.

    Critical and Triple Points

    • Triple point: specific conditions where solid, liquid, and gas co-exist in equilibrium.
    • Critical point denotes the temperature and pressure above which liquid cannot exist.

    Properties of Solids and Liquids

    • Solids have orderly structures with the highest intermolecular forces and least kinetic energy.
    • Liquids are less ordered than solids with weaker intermolecular forces and more kinetic energy.

    Solutions and Concentration

    • Molarity (M) measures concentration: M = moles of solute/liters of solvent.
    • Molality (m) formula: m = moles of solute/kilograms of solution.
    • Saturated, unsaturated, and supersaturated solutions refer to solute concentrations in solvents.

    Solvent Interactions

    • Immiscible liquids do not mix; miscible liquids dissolve freely in each other.
    • "Like dissolves like" indicates that solubility is influenced by polarity.

    Electrolytes and Colligative Properties

    • Strong electrolytes dissociate fully into ions; weak electrolytes partially dissociate.
    • Non-electrolytes do not produce ions in solution.
    • Colligative properties depend solely on solute particle number, not identity.

    Reaction Dynamics

    • REDOX reactions involve electron transfer, characterized by changes in oxidation state.
    • Oxidation signifies electron loss; reduction signifies electron gain.

    Thermodynamic Functions

    • Enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (ΔS) indicate heat changes and disorder, respectively.
    • A negative ΔG denotes a spontaneous reaction; a positive ΔG indicates a non-spontaneous reaction.

    Factors Affecting Reaction Rates

    • Reaction speed influenced by temperature, concentration, catalysts, surface area, and reaction nature.
    • Increasing temperature favors endothermic reactions, while decreasing temperature favors exothermic reactions.

    Volume and Pressure Effects

    • Changes in volume and pressure shift equilibrium toward the side with fewer or more moles, depending on the direction of the change.
