What is Kp used for? What about Kc?

Kp is the equilibrium constant when pressure is involved. Kc is the equilibrium constant when concentration is involved. 

100

What are our common STRONG ACIDS?

TRUE

100

What is the first law of thermodynamics?

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

200

Write the rate expression for the following reaction:

2A + 3B -> C

Rate = -(1/2)(d[A]/dt) = -(1/3)(d[B]/dt) = +(d[C]/dt)

200

What is the difference between K and Q?

K is at equilibrium

Q is at any other point than equilibrium

200

TRUE/FALSE:

Strong bases undergo complete dissociation in water.

NaOH(aq) > Na+(aq) + OH-(aq)

TRUE!

Same goes for strong acids!

200

TRUE/FALSE

Buffers are a weak acid or weak base and its conjugate weak base or weak acid

TRUE

In your own words, what is the difference between Entropy and Enthalpy. Give examples of each!

Enthalpy (ΔH): Sum of a systems internal energy and product of pressure and volume.

- when you heat up pizza rolls(system) in the microwave, energy is transferred into them in the form of heat.

Entropy (ΔS): Related to the # of possible ways we can order a collection of things. 

- perfume spreading through a room

- related to micro states

What equation relates Gibbs Free Energy and equilibrium and what does each part mean? 

dG = dGo + RTlnQ

dG is Gibbs Free Energy; dGo is Gibbs Free Energy at standard conditions; R is the gas law constant; T is temperature; Q is the reaction quotient

For the following reaction, label the acids, bases and the conjugates.

NH3(aq) + H2O(l) -> NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Acids: H2O, NH4+

Bases: NH3, OH-

Fill in the phrase with either "lower" or "higher"

A lower Ksp = ________ Solubility

A higher Ksp = ________ Solubility

A lower Ksp = lower Solubility

A higher Ksp = higher Solubility

300

Which represents a spontaneous process:

a) -ΔS

b) -ΔH

c)  -ΔG

 -ΔG

Remember: 

ΔG < 0 spontaneous

ΔG > 0 non-spontaneous  

ΔG = 0 equilibrium

What are the five factors that alter the rate of a reaction?

Particle size of solids, nature of reactants, concentration of reactants, temperature, and presence of a catalyst. 

400

What do each of these comparisons mean?

Q=K ; Q>K ; Q<K

Q=K: Reaction is at equilibrium

Q>K: Needs more reactants, reaction goes backward

Q<K: Needs more products, reaction goes forward

Write all reactions for H3PO4 until it is fully deprotonated. Assume it reacts with H2O. Ignore phases.

H3PO4 + H2O -> H2PO4- + H3O+

H2PO4- + H2O -> HPO42- + H3O+

HPO42- + H2O -> PO43- + H3O+
