Matter
This state of matter has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container.
What is a liquid?
This is the strongest type of intermolecular force, commonly found between water molecules.
What is a hydrogen bond?
This principle states that if a system at equilibrium is disturbed, it will shift to counteract the disturbance.
What is Le Chatelier's principle?
Boyles' Law relates which two variables?
Pressure and Volume
This type of reaction occurs when two or more simple substances combine to form a more complex product, such as hydrogen and oxygen making water.
What is a synthesis (or combination) reaction
This type of property, such as mass or volume, depends on the amount of matter in a sample.
What is an extensive property?
These weak intermolecular forces exist between all molecules, including nonpolar ones, due to temporary dipoles.
What are London dispersion forces?
This state is reached when the forward and reverse reaction rates of a chemical process become equal.
What is dynamic equilibrium?
Charles' Law relates which two variables?
Volume and Temperature
This rapid chemical reaction with oxygen produces heat and light, commonly known as burning.
What is Combustion
This phase change occurs when a solid turns directly into a gas without becoming a liquid first.
What is sublimation?
This property, caused by cohesive intermolecular forces, allows insects like water striders to walk on water.
What is surface tension?
In calculating the equilibrium constant expression (Keq) these two states of matter are always omitted.
What are solids and pure liquids?
Which law states that pressure and temperature are directly proportional?
Gay-Lussacs Law
This type of substance increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed by the reaction itself.
What is a Catalyst
This term describes a mixture that is completely uniform in composition throughout, like salt water.
What is a homogeneous mixture? or What is a solution
This intermolecular force occurs specifically when the positive end of one polar molecule attracts the negative end of another.
What is a dipole-dipole interaction?
If this calculated ratio (Q) is greater than the equilibrium constant (K) the reaction will shift to the left to make more reactants.
What is the reaction quotient?
This law relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas using the equation .PV=nRT
What is the Ideal Gas Law?
This industrial chemical process synthesizes ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen gases, utilizing an iron catalyst under high pressure.
Haber-Bosch Process
On a phase diagram, this specific point represents the temperature and pressure where all three states of matter coexist.
What is the triple point?
This property measures a liquid's resistance to flow, which increases as the strength of intermolecular forces increases.
What is viscosity?
According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the pressure on a gaseous system will shift the equilibrium toward the side with fewer of these.
What are moles of gas?
This law states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas.
What is Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures
This non-spontaneous type of chemical reaction uses a direct electrical current to drive an otherwise unfavorable decomposition of compounds, such as splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen gas
What is electrolysis?
