What is the DH subscript when matter is transformed from a reactant to a product

Enthalpy of "reaction"

DH (rxn)

100

What equation can solve for the heat required to make a temperature change of substance

q = mCsDT

heat = M-CAT

100

A law that states the amount of dissolved gas in a given volume of solvent is proportional to the partial pressure of gas above the solvent.

Henry's Law

100

Explain how you would explain that an exothermic reaction that increases disorder is spontaneous

Exothermic is negative DH

Disorder is positive DS

DG is negative = Spontaneous since

DG = DH - TDS would be negative

Is the table of standard cell potentials written as reductions or oxidations? Show what that looks like

Written as Stard Reduction Potentials

2H+ + 2e --> H2

(electrons on the left)

200

Subscript on DH for: 

Enthalpy of a Compound minus Enthalpy of the elements that compose the compound

Enthalpy of "formation"

DH (f)

200

What is the equation we use to track the amount of heat that leaves a hot substances and is absorbed by a cooler substance it is in contact with

-q (system)  = q (surroundings)

or -q (hot) = q (cool)

200
Law that states that the vapor pressure of a solution depends on the fractional amount of solute dissolved in the solution and is less than the vapor pressure of the pure solvent.

Raoult's Law

200

Is a reaction guaranteed to be spontanous if endothermic and disorder increases?

not guaranteed. If the temperature is high enough it would produce a negative DG

200

What is the Coordination number of a metal ion in a trigonal bipyramidal geometry?

CN= 5

300

Subscript on DH that describes the energy needed to change a substance from a liquid to a gas state

Enthalpy of Vaporization

DH (vap)

300

What is the point of finding Q(data) in a statistical Q-test?

a Q-test is an analysis that allows you to confirm whether an outlier data point is statistically bad enough to discard

300

The pH of a buffer solution can be estimated by this equation.

Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation.

300

If DG = -2840 kJ/mol for cellular respiration

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 --> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O what is the Gibb's energy for the reverse reaction (photosynthesis)?

DG = +2840 kJ/mol

Energy absorbed from the sun

300

When balancing a equation in acidic conditions, what do you do if a half reaction has oxygens on the product side but not the reactant side? How do you go about adding oxygen to the side that needs them?

Add water to the deficient side then counter the other side with H+ to make up for the hydrogens that compose water.

400

Subscript on DH that describes the energy needed to change a substance from a solid to a liquid state

Enthalpy of fusion

DH (fus)

400

For a slightly soluble compound, would you observe a precipitate if Q is greater or less than K?

if Q> K you have exceeded solubility limits and you would observe a precipitate.

400

Equation that allows us to estimate the vapor pressure of a substance at different temperatures

Clausius-Clapeyron Equation

400

When is the following equation necessary to use?

DG = DG^0 +RT ln Q

When the process is not at standard state and not at equilibrium.

400

How many pure orbitals and how many hybrid orbitals on an atom that is sp2 hybridized?

1 pure p-orbital and 3 hybrids each called an sp2 hybrid orbital

500

For standard enthalpy, what is the standard value of pressure for a gas, and concentration for a solution?

Standard: 1.0 for gas, 1M for solution.

500

Explain what q (calorimeter) means in the following equation

-q (hot) = q (melt) + q (cool water) + q (calorimeter)

 q (calorimeter) describes the heat that is lost to the calorimeter such as the heat that get absorbed by the styrofoam, thermometer, and lost to the surrounding air.

500

Equation that relates the speed of a reaction to the temperature the reaction is occurring (also a name applied to an acid/base theory)

Arrhenius Equation.

500

Which DG is set equal to zero when Q = K?

DG = DG^0 +RT ln Q

The DG on the left of the equals-sign

500

Which of the following bonding theories include hybridization

a. VSEPR    b. Valence Bond     c. Molecular Orbital 

d. Crystal Field

b.  Valence Bond Theory
