    Study Notes

    Intermolecular Forces (IMFs)

    • Intermolecular forces (IMFs) are forces of attraction between molecules
    • London Dispersion Forces (LDFs) are the weakest IMFs and are present in all molecules
      • Temporary dipoles in one molecule induce similar dipoles in nearby molecules causing attraction.
      • Hold together nonpolar molecules and noble gases in the liquid or solid phase.
    • Dipole-Dipole Interactions are stronger than LDFs
      • Occur between polar molecules.
      • Polar molecules have permanent dipoles, with positive and negative ends attracting each other.
    • Hydrogen Bonding is the strongest IMF
      • Occurs when hydrogen is directly bonded to fluorine (F), oxygen (O), or nitrogen (N).
      • Examples: water (H₂O), hydrogen fluoride (HF), and ammonia (NH₃).
    • Ion-Dipole Interactions are even stronger than hydrogen bonds
      • Occur in mixtures where an ionic compound interacts with a polar molecule.
      • Example: salt (NaCl) dissolved in water (H₂O).

    Properties of Solids

    • Amorphous solids have a disordered structure with no regular pattern, example: glass, rubber
    • Crystalline solids have a regular, repeating pattern of particles, example: salt (NaCl), diamonds

    Solids, Liquids, and Gases

    • Solids maintain their shape and volume.
    • Liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container (fluidity).
    • Gases take both the shape and volume of their container.
    • Forces between particles in solids are strong enough to keep them in fixed positions
    • Forces between particles in liquids are strong enough to hold them near each other, but weak enough to allow them to move past each other.
    • Forces between particles in gases are very weak, allowing them to move freely.

    Ideal Gas Law

    • PV = nRT
      • P = pressure (atm)
      • V = volume (L)
      • n = number of moles
      • R = ideal gas constant
      • T = temperature (K)
    • Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures: The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas.

    Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT)

    • Five key assumptions about ideal gases
      • No interaction/ negligible volume between gas particles.
      • Gas particles are in random, constant, straight-line motion.
      • Collisions between gas particles are elastic.
      • Kinetic energy of gas particles is directly related to their velocity, and all gases at the same temperature have the same average kinetic energy
      • Velocity increases with temperature

    Deviation from Ideal Gas Law

    • Real gases deviate from ideal behavior at high pressures and low temperatures
      • Gas particles can become attracted to each other
      • Volume occupied by the gas particles is no longer negligible

    Solutions and Mixtures

    • Solutions are homogeneous mixtures.
    • The solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute.
    • Concentration (molarity) is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution (M = moles/volume).
    • Dilution is the process of making a solution less concentrated by adding more solvent. Use M₁V₁ = M₂V₂.

    Solubility

    • Solubility is how well a substance dissolves in a solvent.
    • Soluble substances dissolve completely; insoluble substances do not.
    • Every solution has a saturation point.

    Spectroscopy and Electromagnetic Spectrum

    • Light behaves as both a wave and a particle.
    • Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional

    Photoelectric Effect

    • Electrons are ejected from metals when exposed to light with a specific frequency
      • Light above a certain frequency is needed to eject electrons

    Chromatography

    • Separates substances based on how they interact with a stationary phase

    Evaporation

    • Separates solids from liquids by boiling off the solvent

    Filtration

    • Separates insoluble solids from liquids
