Study Notes
Intermolecular Forces
- Attractive forces are essential for molecules to come together.
- Cohesive forces involve attraction between similar molecules.
- Adhesive forces involve attraction between different molecules.
- Attractive forces are inversely proportional to the distance between molecules.
- This inverse relationship is described by the Lennard-Jones potential.
- Repulsive forces are proportional to an exponential relationship with the reciprocal of the distance separating the molecules.
Types of Intermolecular Forces
- Van der Waals Forces: Dipole-dipole, dipole-induced dipole, and induced dipole-induced dipole interactions.
- Ion-Dipole Forces: Occur between ions and polar molecules.
- Hydrogen Bonding: A uniquely strong type of dipole-dipole interaction, partly covalent.
- Hydrophobic Interactions: Forces of attraction between nonpolar atoms and molecules in water, driven by minimizing disruption of hydrogen bonds between water molecules.
States of Matter
- Gases: High kinetic energy, weak intermolecular forces, no regular shape, compressible, and can fill available space.
- Liquids: Definite volume, take the shape of their container, denser than gases, less compressible than gases, and more compressible than solids.
- Solids: Fixed shape, nearly incompressible, strong intermolecular forces, minimal kinetic energy.
Ideal Gas Laws
- Boyle's Law: Inverse proportionality between volume and pressure.
- Charles' Law: Direct proportionality between temperature and volume.
Kinetic Molecular Theory
- Gas particles are in constant random motion, colliding elastically with other particles and container walls.
- Gas particles have negligible volume compared to the total volume of the container.
- Gas particles have insignificant attractive or repulsive forces except during collisions.
- Gas particle possess kinetic energy proportional to temperature.
- The average kinetic energy of gas particles is directly proportional to the temperature.
- Particle speeds in a gas follow a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
- The pressure exerted by a gas is due to collisions of gas particles with container walls.
Blood Gases
- O2 and CO2 are important blood gases.
- Their concentration is determined by Henry's Law of gas solubility – the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas.
- Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures: The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of each gas.
- Normal partial pressures of O2 is 80 mmHg, PCO2 is around 35-45 mmHg.
- PCO2: reflects the inverse relationship between itself and lung ventilation. High PCO2 indicates poor ventilation, low PCO2 indicates hyperventilation.
Liquid State
- Liquids can be frozen (become solids), have boiling points (become gases), and have vapor pressure and surface tension.
- Liquefaction of Gases: Gases can be liquefied by cooling and applying pressure.
- Aerosols: A drug dissolved or suspended in a propellant, a material that is liquid under pressure but vaporizes at atmospheric pressure.
Vapor Pressure
- Vapor Pressure: Pressure exerted by the vapor of a substance in equilibrium with its liquid or solid phase.
- Substances with higher vapor pressures are more volatile.
- The Clausius–Clapeyron equation describes the relationship between vapor pressure and temperature.
- Heat of Vaporization: Amount of heat energy needed to transform a liquid to a vapor at constant temperature and pressure.
- Boiling Point: Temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure.
Surface Tension
- Surface tension is the force per unit length acting on the surface of a liquid.
Solid State
- Solids have a fixed shape and are nearly incompressible.
- Characterized by shape, particle size, melting point, and sublimation point.
