Study Notes
Ionization Energy
- First ionization energy rises in the periodic table, moving up and to the right.
- It measures the energy needed to detach the first electron from a neutral atom.
- Increased effective nuclear charge enhances attraction from protons, making ionization more challenging.
Chemical Reactions and Equilibria
- Adding a strong acid to a saturated Mg(OH)₂ solution elevates Mg²⁺ ion concentration as OH⁻ ions react with H⁺ to form water.
- Reaction equation: Mg(OH)₂(s) ⇌ Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq).
Thermodynamic Laws and Units
- Zeroth Law units: M¹s⁻¹.
- First Law units: s⁻¹.
- Second Law units: M⁻¹s⁻¹.
- Third Law units: M⁻²s⁻¹.
Gibbs Free Energy and Spontaneity
- ΔH > 0 and ΔS < 0 indicates a non-spontaneous reaction.
- ΔH < 0 and ΔS < 0 shows spontaneity at low temperatures.
- ΔH > 0 and ΔS > 0 denotes spontaneity at high temperatures.
- ΔH < 0 and ΔS > 0 signifies spontaneity under all temperatures.
Osmotic Pressure
- Osmotic pressure formula: π = iMRT, with R = 0.082 (L × atm)/(mol × K).
Bonding and Electronegativity
- Polar covalent bonds form when electronegative nonmetals bond with less electronegative nonmetals, exemplified by HCl.
- High electronegativity of chlorine causes uneven electron sharing, creating a dipole.
Entropy and Temperature
- Rising temperature boosts molecular movement, increasing system entropy.
- Changes in temperature, volume, and pressure are linked to alterations in entropy (ΔS).
Factors Affecting Bond Angles
- Lone pairs exert greater repulsion than bonding pairs, reducing bond angles in molecules.
Redox Reactions
- In the reaction 2 Al₂O₃ + 3 C → 4 Al + 3 CO₂, aluminum in Al₂O₃ is reduced and carbon is oxidized.
- Understanding oxidation states helps identify redox processes.
Acid-Base Chemistry
- Conjugate pairs connect an acid to its related base.
- An acid loses a proton (H⁺) to create its conjugate base, while a base gains a proton to become its conjugate acid.
Properties of Water
- Freezing and melting points of pure water: 0°C / 32°F / 273K.
- At 0°C, pure water can exist as both liquid and solid, contingent on heat exchange.
Freezing Point Depression
- Freezing point depression formula: ΔTf = -(i × Kf × m), with m being molality (moles of solute per kg of solvent).
- The addition of solute decreases the freezing point; the more particles present, the greater the depression.
Changes of State
- Physical changes maintain the chemical formula, exemplified by aluminum transitioning from solid to liquid.
Solubility Product Constant (Ksp)
- To find Ksp for NaCl in water, consider the concentrations of Na⁺ and Cl⁻, as solids and pure liquids are not included in equilibrium expressions.
Ideal Gas Law
- For ideal gases X and Y at the same temperature and molecule count, pressure and volume relationship is expressed as P1V1 = P2V2.
- If gas X's pressure is double that of gas Y, then V1 equals half of V2.
