Rhea Churi 4K

Catalyst is there in the beginning of the reaction and is then used up and recreated.
Intermediate is created and then used up.

Rhea Churi 4K

Yeah it should be given.

Rhea Churi 4K

It gives the frequency at which the reactants collide correctly to form products.
I'm pretty sure for this class A will either be given or just equal to 1.

Rhea Churi 4K

Yes, catalysts can be included in the rate law.

Rhea Churi 4K

An inert gas is not reactive so it doesn't affect the reaction at all.

Rhea Churi 4K

It'll probably be pretty strict because thermodynamics and kinetics require specific units.

Rhea Churi 4K

Zero-order reaction is mol L-1 s-1
First-order reaction is s-1
Second-order reaction is L mol-1 s-1.

Rhea Churi 4K

Quadratic formulas are usually used with ICE tables, when you don't know the concentration of 1 or more of the reactants or products.

Rhea Churi 4K

Catalyst is there in the beginning of reaction and is then recreated later on. An intermediate is created and used up during the reaction.

Rhea Churi 4K

More positive E value means it will have a higher oxidizing power.
More negative E value means it will have a higher reducing power.

Rhea Churi 4K

No, catalysts only influence a reaction rate. They do not appear in the rate law.

Rhea Churi 4K

Intermediate is created and then used up throughout the steps.
A catalyst is there when the reaction begins and is then recreated later on.

Rhea Churi 4K

Volume increases and system does work are ways to tell if expansion is happening.

Rhea Churi 4K

An isolated system cannot exchange matter or energy so there is no change.

Rhea Churi 4K

No change in volume means no work is done.

Rhea Churi 4K

A catalyst is there in the beginning of the reaction and is then recreated at a later step of the reaction.

Rhea Churi 4K

Yup, you find total e- after you balance the reaction.

Rhea Churi 4K

Going off of test 2, they usually tell you if it is an acidic or basic solution.

Rhea Churi 4K

DeltaU can be zero if q and w=0 or q=w (isothermal).

Rhea Churi 4K

Adiabatic: q=0
Isothermal: T=0

Rhea Churi 4K

A catalyst is used up in the beginning of the reaction and then recreated.
An intermediate is created and then used up.

Rhea Churi 4K

It tells you the order of the reaction for one reactant, but it is pseudo because you had to put another reactant in excess to figure it out.

Rhea Churi 4K

Anode is always on the left and the cathode is on the right so:

Anode electrode|Oxidation reaction||Reduction reaction|Cathode electrode

Athena L 1B wrote:So is a bimolecular reaction another way of saying it's second order?

A bimolecular reaction is always a second order reaction but not all second order reactions are bimolecular.

Rhea Churi 4K

Each chapter in the textbook that we need to know has a brief section on the biological applications, so it would probably be helpful to review those.

Rhea Churi 4K

Activation energy is the energy required to cause a reaction to happen. It is represented by the highest peak on an energy graph.

Rhea Churi 4K

K changes when it is a different reaction or the same reaction is performed at a different temperature.

Rhea Churi 4K

I don't think so, it didn't show up on any of the outlines

Rhea Churi 4K

Constants are different from the rate at which the reaction proceeds, so K values are not equal but the rates are.

Emily Kennedy 4L wrote:we only use this equation to convert from partial pressure to concentration and vice versa rt?

Yes, you would use P/RT=Concentration

Jaira_Murphy_2D wrote:Is the reaction quotient unit-less as well?

Yes the reaction quotient is unit-less

Rhea Churi 4K

Most likely, you use concentration for calculating K. However, you will be able to find out whether to use pressure or concentration if it is denoted K(p) for pressure or K(c) for concentration.

Rhea Churi 4K

I would memorize them just to be safe. Definitely know EN and EDTA.

Rhea Churi 4K

My TA said to follow the decimal rule. Count sig figs after the decimal.

Rhea Churi 4K

It leans more towards size. HF is very electronegative but very small. Because it is so small, it doesn't handle the negative charge very well, making it unstable. So, H2Se would be stronger than HF because Se can handle its charge better.

Rhea Churi 4K

As of right now, I don't think there is a practice final. I think at the review sessions they're going to hand out practice problems.

Rhea Churi 4K

I think we definitely need to know the formula for acetic acid and know strong acids as well.

Rhea Churi 4K

Also, pOH measures the concentration of OH- in solution. Because we evaluate on a pH scale, you need to subtract it from 14

Rhea Churi 4K

It's less than 90 and 120 degrees.

Rhea Churi 4K

The s and p orbital combined only make up 4 areas of electron density. However, as we've seen a molecule can have more than that. Thus, the d orbital gets involved because it contributes electrons while bonding and can be part of a hybrid orbital.

Rhea Churi 4K

Because there are only 3 p orbitals that exist and can be filled and s also contributes an orbital, so there is a total of 4 areas of electron density/orbitals

Rhea Churi 4K

Yes, lone pairs change the shape by changing bond angles so the name changes as well.

Rhea Churi 4K

This is because the molecule is polar so the positive side (H atoms) are drawn towards negative side (O and lone pairs) making the angle smaller.

Rhea Churi 4K

In CH2Cl2, the 2 bonds create a dipole towards the Cl since it is electronegative. This makes the molecule negative towards the Cl and away from the 2 H.

Rhea Churi 4K

The name of the VSEPR structures are as follows
a) linear
b) tetrahedral

Rhea Churi 4K

He'll go over them most likely but eventually we'll have to know shape, name, bond angle, and hoe to draw molecules with up to 6 bonds.

Rhea Churi 4K

It is because molecules exist in the 3d world. Because of that, the atoms want to be far from each other as possible because of electron repulsion so the bind angle is 109.5 degrees.

Rhea Churi 4K

There isn't anything about naming because we haven't gone over it yet.

Rhea Churi 4K

Yes, Iodine is larger and has more orbitals, so it has more electrons to make bonds.

Rhea Churi 4K

All the way up to 3.11 in 6th edition and 2C in the 7th.

Rhea Churi 4K

Ionic bonds also tend to make lattice structures that are very hard to break, making the bond stronger.

Rhea Churi 4K

What are some examples of resonance structures? Do they only occur in bonds between certain molecules? Resonance structures are used when one Lewis structure for a single molecule cannot fully describe the bonding that takes place. Polyatomic icons usually have resonance structures, like nitrate fo...

Rhea Churi 4K

It is most commonly measured in Angstroms.

Rhea Churi 4K

Nonmetals tend to have higher electronegativity. So they attract more electrons, making it easier to form anions.

Rhea Churi 4K

Atoms typically seek to fill each energy level before moving onto the next one as it helps with stability. Thus, Ag would fill up the 4d energy level before moving up.

Rhea Churi 4K

Usually, most atoms try to follow the octet rule. However, there are cases where 1) molecules have an odd number of electrons (ex. NO), 2) two few valence electrons result in an incomplete octet usually common w boron, aluminum, and beryllium (ex. BH3), or 3) expanded octets - molecules possess more...

In an empirical formula, it's typically C, H, and then other elements follow in alphabetical order.

Conservatively, 10^-18 is when it becomes too small to notice.

Geiger and Marsden performed a series of experiments where they pointed a beam of alpha particles at a thin foil of metal and measured the scattering pattern by using a fluorescent screen. They spotted alpha particles bouncing off the metal foil in all directions, some right back at the source. They...

Nitric Acid is HNO3 Usually, when something is an acid it contains an H+ ion. Because it is Nitric, that means it has an NO3- ion (because it ends in "-ic" that means the ion itself ends in "-ate", so a nitrate ion). I'm pretty sure Dr. Lavelle said we would be learning how to na...

Rhea Churi 4K

I'm pretty sure for now Dr. Lavelle said he would give us the formula but we'll be learning how to name them and find their formulas pretty soon.
Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate would be MgSO4 * 7(H2O)
Hope this helps!

Because it's asking you to find the atom ratios, you're basically trying to find the empirical formula. You would assume that you have 100 g of Vanillin so you can convert each percent composition to grams, giving you the mass. So, 63.15% C would be 63.15 g C, and so on and you would convert it to m...
