hello, "A" is a constant that takes into account orientation and number of collisions. It is a frequency factor. Reactants must collide with enough energy to break bonds/overcome the energy barrier, but they also need to collide with the correct orientation (A). When A increases, k will in...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, This can be a bit confusing because of how close the two terms sound! When you see the term "Free energy," you should think of Gibbs Free energy, which is the amount of energy "free"/available to do thermodynamic work. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed for r...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The slow step is also known as the "rate determining step." The reaction can only go as fast as the slowest step. It doesn't matter how fast the other steps are if one step is slower. This means that when you are writing your rat law, you should write it in terms of the slowest step...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, By looking at your axes, it shows that you are plotting concentration vs time. If the reaction was zero order, you would get a straight line, but since the rxn is first or second order, it will be curved because the rate is dependent on concentration. Zero order reactions are independent on c...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, In order to determine the order for a reactant, you need to look at the data table given. For reactant A, you need to compare a data set where A changes concentration and the other reactants remain constant. Then, you will compare the change in concentration of A to the possible change in the...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello, I had the same issue when I was doing the achieve problem. I guess achieve wants you to put it in the most simple form. Since C is zero order, it can be excluded from the rate because anything raised to the zero power is just 1. Since A is first order, you don't have to include the exponent b...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When a reaction order is zero order, this means that the rate is constant and independent of the concentration of the reactant. Graphically, the linear line is depicting the concept that the rate of decomposition at minute one is the same as the rate of decomposition at minute 2 and so forth....

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The unit of rate needs to be M/s. Zero order rate = k[A]^0 -------> rate = k(1) - to get rate with the correct units, k must have the units of M/s because there is nothing else it is multiplied with. First order rate = k[A]^1 - [A] has a unit of M - in order to get the proper units of rate, k...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When solving this problem, you need to use the coefficients of the balanced chemical reaction. The rate given is 0.240 M/s. This problem can be figured out stoichiometrically. The coefficient of A is 1, however, it is a reactant that is being "used up" (decreasing). This means that ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The purpose of a catalyst is the reduce the activation energy needed to facilitate the reaction. This works both ways, meaning that with the addition of a catalyst, the activation energy of the forward AND backwards reaction is reduced. If less energy is needed to facilitate a reaction and pr...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The instantaneous rate of change is also known as the slope of the derivative of the function, which is the tangent line. On the graph given, the blue line is the function, and the red line is the tangent line to the curve. You can calculate the slope of the red line by taking (y2 - y1)/(x2 -...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, For a zero order reaction, you should use the formula T=([A]0 - [A]t)/k in order to determine the amount of time it would take to decrease in concentration. Another tip I have is to look at the units given. The rate is given in M/s and the concentration given is in Molarity (M). In order to g...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, In order to determine the order of reactant C, it is helpful to first determine the order of A and B. When A doubled, the rate also doubled. This means that reactant A is first order (2^1). When reactant B doubled, the rate quadrupled (2^2). This means reactant B is second order. It can be a ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, To understand this concept, it is helpful to look at the equation deltaG = -nfE If the cell potential is positive, then delta G will be negative If the cell potential is negative, Delta G will be positive A reaction is spontaneous when delta G is negative Delta G = Delta H - T(Delta S) If the...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The equilibrium constant K cannot be a negative number. K is a proportionality constant for concentrations, so it cannot be negative. first order graphs are negative because the concentration of reactants are decreasing over a period of time. Decreasing means that there is a negative slope. l...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello,

The most common reaction orders are zero, first, and second. There are higher orders such as 3rd and 4th, but we are studying the most common ones. There is also mixed order where the rate is fractional.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

The molecularity will match/agree with the rate law. The kinetic order of any elementary reaction or reaction step is equal to its molecularity. Molecularity refers to the number of particles that collide in a specific step.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

If the reaction is first order, that means the graph will have ln[a] on the Y axis and time on the X axis. If the reaction is first order, when you plot the points using ln, the graph will have a linear, negative slope.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, It is important to understand what isolated means. An isolated system cannot exchange matter or energy with its environment. Entropy describes the likelihood/probability that a system will be in a particular state. Entropy increases when disorder increases. The more positions a molecule can b...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When looking at Delta H, is is important to know what it means when delta H is positive or negative. When delta H is positive, that means that the reaction is endothermic and heat is consumed. When delta H is negative, that means the reaction is exothermic is released. In the question, water ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

Isothermal means constant temperature. So in an isothermal reversible expansion, temperature is constant while pressure and volume can change.

Isolated means that matter and energy cannot be exchanged between the system and the environment.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

When Delta G = 0, that means that Q=K. No work can be done.

Since Delta G = -nfE, E cell = 0. When E cell = 0, that means the battery is dead. The reactions are happening at the same rate, opposite directions. This results in cancelation, therefore no work is done.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Thermodynamic analysis tells us if the forward or reverse process is favored, but it doesn't say how fast or the pathway taken. Kinetic analysis looks at the speed/rate of reaction and uses experimental technique to observe the concentration of products and reactants. For example, in lecture 20, Pro...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Activation energy is the energy needed to facilitate a chemical reaction. The addition of a catalyst lowers the activation energy needed for a reaction to undergo. This works in the forward and reverse direction.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

A zero order reaction means that the rate of reaction is independent of the concentration of reactants. Increasing the concentration of reacts will not change the rate of reaction.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, Yes, you can use standard reduction potentials to determine which metals are better reducing agents. It is important to note that standard reduction potentials tell you the likelihood of something being REDUCED, meaning gain electrons. If looking for the best reducing agent, look for the lowe...

Hello, In order for a spontaneous process, delta S universe needs to be positive. In any spontaneous reaction, delta s is positive. Delta S universe = Delta S system + Delta S surroundings relating Delta G to spontaneity 1. delta G = delta H - T(delta S) 2. Delta G/(-T) = delta H/(-T) - (T)(delta S)...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

All of the equations given will give you the correct answer, however, not all of them will work with the information given. They are all derived from one another, so you can use equations in conjunction with one another to find a certain variable. For example, in some of the textbook problems, befor...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, the n in the equation refers to the moles of electrons in a redox reaction. You are looking for the number of moles transferred in the redox reaction. The number of electrons lost in oxidation is gained by the species that is reduced. This is the n value that is plugged into the equation.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

This topic can be pretty confusing because it is not very intuitive. In a redox reaction, the oxidizing agent is what is AIDING the reduction of a compound. The oxidizing agent is the species that gets reduced. The reducing agent is what us AIDING in the oxidation of a compound. The reducing agent i...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Zinc and copper are good conductors of electricity. These metals are often the ones used in examples because of how zinc readily loses electrons compared to copper, so it will cause electrons to flow from zinc to copper. Placing zinc and copper metal in solutions of their salts can cause electrons t...

Hello,

When setting up your Ka ratio, you would have -x in the denominator, but since your Ka Value is so small, you can omit the X in the denominator because it will have very little effect on 0.057. 0.057 - a very small x value will still be about 0.057.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

forming bonds is an exothermic process whereas breaking bonds is endothermic. If the bond that is broken is stronger than the fond formed, then it was an endothermic rxn. If the bond that is broken is weaker than the bond formed, it is an exothermic rxn.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

When thinking about baking a cake, you need to put heat in for the cake to bake. Heat absorbed will be endothermic.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

We say q = - q because one side is losing heat, while the other is gaining heat. The heat lost will be proportional to the heat gained.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello,

when using PV=nRT to solve for moles, it is important to use the correct gas constant R. In this case, you should be using (0.08206 [(L)(atm)]/[(mol)(K)])

I hope this helps!

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, In order to find the enthalpy of this reaction using supplemental reactions, it is important to look at whether compounds/elements are acting as reactants or products, stoichiometric ratios, and phases (such as solid or aq). In the equation of the rxn you want to derive, you have 2M(s) as a r...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, To solve for the second part of question 8, you will first have to convert grams of carbon to moles carbon using molar mass. Next, you will stoichiometrically find the delta H using the information given. Moles Carbon x (ΔH=+358.8 kJ / 4 moles carbon) I hope this helps! I am unsure if the num...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

The values that should go on the negative side are the values that are losing heat. For example, in this problem, the water will be on the negative side because it is initially at 45 degrees celsius and will lose heat, dropping to a lower temperature once the ice is added.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, To do this problem, you need to first take the grams of NaN3 and convert it to moles Then stoichiometrically convert moles NaN3 to moles N2 gas. This is because NaN3 reacts completely. N2 is the only gas product that will inflate the bag. Once you get moles of N2 gas, use PV=nRT to solve for ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

To solve for this problem you need to set the equations equal to each other with the side that is losing heat being negative to demonstrate the loss of heat

(m)(C)(Tf - Initial T) = - (m)(C)(Tf - Initial T)

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello, First, The problem tells you that it is a constant-volume calorimeter. This means that NO WORK is done. Therefore, the Delta U of the reaction is equal to qrxn. (Delta U = q rxn When looking at a problem like this one, I find it extremely helpful to look at your units. For example, you first ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello, The K value is an equilibrium constant, so the K value would not "shift" a reaction left or right. It is the Q value that would tell you if the reaction needs to shift to reach equilibrium. The Q value is calculated at any point in the reaction to see whether a reaction has reached ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When looking at the effect of pressure on an equilibrium reaction, it is important to notice whether or not the pressure is changing the concentration of the reactants and products. For example, if you have your reaction in a 1.00L vessel and you increase pressure by changing the volume to 0....

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

If the delta H is positive, that means that the reaction is endothermic (requires energy as a reactant)
If the delta H value is negative, that means that the reaction is exothermic (releases energy)

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello,

Autoprotolysis is when there is a proton transfer between the SAME type of molecule. For example, the autoprotolysis of water is equilibrium reaction of water to hydroxide and hydronium ions

2 H20 <------> H3O+ + OH-

Kw = 1 x 10^-14 (at 25 Degrees Celcius)

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

Yes, they are both solved the same way where you divide the concentration of the products by the reactants all raised to their respective powers. The only difference between the two is that Kp uses partial pressure and Kc uses concentration.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, R is known as the gas constant in the ideal gas law PV=nRT. When looking for an unknown value using the gas law, it is important to use the correct gas constant in terms of units. The gas constant differs when using atm, bar, or torr. Make sure to pay attention to units to make sure you are u...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When a reaction reaches equilibrium, then there is no net change in concentration and the reactants and products are forming at the same rate. This would then be used to calculate the equilibrium constant. The value of this constant can tell you which side (reactant or product) is favored. K>...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The equilibrium constant K can be derived for either partial pressure or concentration. If the reaction is in an aqueous solution, then concentration will be used as partial pressure is used for gases. The reason we can calculate K using partial pressure for gases is due to its relation to th...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Although they are calculated in the same fashion (which is the concentration/partial pressure of products divided by the concentration/partial pressure of the reactants) they are different in what they represent. The K value is an equilibrium constant. When a reaction reaches equilibrium, there is n...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, In order to do this problem, you will need to look at the components of the salt, meaning the cation and the anion. A salt may be defined as the product of a neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. For example, when looking at the salt NH4ClO4, you can see that it is composed of NH4+ a...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, in general, its useful to know that: The conjugate base is the formula of the acid with one less hydrogen attached to it. Make sure you don't forget the charge of the compound. The conjugate acid is the formula of the base with one more hydrogen attached to it. Again, don't forget to look at ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, Salts can only be acidic, basic, or neutral. They cannot be both at the same time. I think you might be thinking of amphoteric compounds in which those are compounds that can act as an acid or base depending on the situation/type of solution it is placed in. Amphoteric oxides can form salts. ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, When we were in lecture, Lavelle discussed how Na+ does not change pH because the +1 charge is not strong enough to break the bond between oxygen and hydrogen and pull off a proton. Furthermore, it is important to remember that group 1 and two cations are weak lewis acids. Lewis acids are ele...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello, The anions HSO4- and H2PO4- have a negative charge, but are able to act as an acid. Very few anions are able to act as an acid because it is very difficult for an anion to lose a hydrogen. The two exceptions Professor Lavelle gave us are able to give off a proton. For example, NaH2PO4 (which ...

Hello, Strong acids and bases are those that completely dissociate in water to their respective ions(aq). Weak acids and bases don't completely dissociate in water It is helpful to memorize some of the strong acids (knowing these 6 is beneficial) 1. If there is a hydrogen in front of these 3 halogen...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

To determine whether a compound is an acid or a base, it is helpful to use either the bronsted definition of an acid/base or the lewis definition of an acid or a base. The bronsted definition looks at proton donors and acceptor while the lewis definition looks at electron donors and acceptors. Typic...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

These can be used interchangeably. [H+] is just showing the hydrogen on its own and [H3O+] shows that the hydrogen is bonded to a water molecule. Either way, it is showing the hydrogen and its charge.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

These terms differ by definition. It is important to know the difference when asked to identify one or the other because it can cause confusion.

Delocalized bonds can be seen in some molecules with resonance. The electrons can be spread across the molecule. The electrons are not confined to a specific location. Resonance form I contains 2 localized bonds and 1 delocalized bond. A delocalized chemical bond is a bond that is not associated wit...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Double bonds have more electrons being shared, meaning that the bond energy is stronger than that of a single bond. With a stronger bond and more electrons being shared, the bond is shorter and therefore becomes harder to break. The electrons are pulled harder and closer.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

When looking at the structure of a molecule, you can determine polarity by looking at the dipole moments. if the dipole moment cancel out, it molecule is non-polar. Symmetry in a molecule is non-polar and asymmetry is polar.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Its better to use the VSEPR model to determine bond angles because you can look at electron density and lone pairs that way. This way, its easier to visualize the atoms in their respective positions and conclude bond angles. It also great to memorize them and how lone pairs affect angles.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

A double bond is shorter than a single bond because the electrons are closer together and therefore stronger. Nucleus-nucleus repulsion is overcome by electrostatic attraction between the positively charged nuclei and the electron cloud.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

yes, that is correct. Pi bonds have two lobes that overlap with two lobes of an orbital of the other atom. It's a lateral overlap, so this prevents pi bonds from rotating because it would break.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

a triple bond has one sigma bond and two pi bonds.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

hello, sigma bonds have head-to-head overlap in which the electron density is directly along the bonding axis. Because of this, sigma bonds allow for rotation. The bond strength remains constant even when rotating. For pi bonds, however, have electron overlap above and below the plane of atoms. Ther...

Oxidation numbers tell you if an atom has gained or lost an electron. It can be a negative number, positive number, or zero. If the number is negative, that means that the atom has gained electrons. If the number is positive, that means the atom has lost electrons. An oxidation number of zero is neu...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

(Number of bonding electrons - number of anti bonding electron)/2 is the equation to figure out bond order. If this equation equaled zero, that means that there is no bond formed because there would be the same number of bonding electrons and anti-bonding electrons. This would be highly unstable and...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Dipole-dipole molecules involves electrostatic interactions. The slightly positive side of the molecule interacts with the slightly negative side of the other molecule. For example two HF molecules will have a dipole-dipole interaction between the slightly positive side (hydrogen) and the slightly n...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

a molecule with a bond order of zero cannot form because it would be too unstable. Bond order can be calculated by taking the (Number of bonding electrons - number of anti bonding electron)/2. If that equaled zero, then no bonds would even be formed.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Electronegativity is the electron pulling power of atom represented by the Greek letter chi. The reason elements differ in electronegativity is due to differences in atomic number/the positive charge of the nucleus and the distance of the valence electrons from the positively nucleus of the atom.

hello, Radicals are compounds with unpaired electrons. An example of a radical is CH3 with an unpaired electron. This compound is created in the burning of hydrocarbons. Radicals are highly reactive, so they usually exist for a short amount of time. Radicals can damage DNA by reacting and modifying ...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

yes, carbon is usually going to be the central element in a structure. Carbon needs 4 bonds, so it is a generally a good rule of thumb to have it be the central atom.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

There is a correlation between bond length and type of bond. Single bonds have a longer bond length than double bonds. Double bonds have a longer bond length than triple bonds. Also, the shorter the bond, the stronger the bond. The bond energy is stronger when bond length is shorter.

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

The ground state configuration is the most stable and in the lowest energy level. When the electron configuration is in the excited state, electrons will move/skip to a higher energy state/orbital.

This is the electron configuration rule that says that orbitals will be singly occupied before becoming doubling occupied. All of the electrons will fill in the orbitals with the same spin before fillin...

Vanessa Wiratmo 3k

Hello,

The Aufbau Principle says that can electron cannot occupy a higher energy state until the lower energy states have been filled up first. Electrons fill the sub-shell from lowest to highest energy state. For example, electrons need to fill the 1s sub-shell before occupying the 2s sub-shell.
