Chem 1a‐ Study Guide 1 Kinetic Molecular Theory: • All matter is composed of tiny particles • Particles are in constant motion • Inc T = inc motion (T α P) • Solids, gasses, liquids differ in structure, motion, attrxn Solid state: Inc T = Inc in ave velocity; thus inc in momentum (mass∙velocity) average, thus inc in average force per collision, thus pushes particles farther apart, thus inc in the vol of the solid Evaporation of a liquid: • Every particle eventually goes to surface • If the particle has enough momentum to inc the distance bxn itself from the attrxn of the other particles at the surface, then the particle will escape Condensation of a gas to a liquid: • At high T: No significant attrxns bxn particles • At low T: less momemtum, stronger attrxn, harder to break those attrxn • Eventually particles form into clumps & there is a significant amt of attrxns, thus forming a liquid Intermolecular attractions Non polar Even distribution of +/‐ charge Polar Uneven distribution of +/‐ London Forces Always nonpolar Hydrocarbons molecular (CaHb) compounds Hydrogen bonds H w/ NOF NH3 Dipole dipole Polar molecules HCl Identifying chemical bonds ∆ 0.4 Non polar covalent ∆ 0.4 1.7 Polar covalent ∆ 1.7 Ionic Metal‐ Usually Molecular compound Nonmetal ionic bond Nonmetal‐ Covalent Ionic compound nonmetal Prefixes for binary covalent compounds 1 mono 6 hexa 2 di 7 hepta 3 tri 8 octa 4 tetra 9 nona 5 penta 10 deca 2.54 1.057 Conversion factors to remember 453.6 1 3.785 47.2 1 47.2% 100 1 1 Ferrous Ferric Cuprous Cupric 1 more O 1 less O 2 less O 1 more O 1 less O 2 less O Group 4A 4 bonds 0 lone pairs Carbon (C) Metals w/ two possible charges Fe2+ Iron(II) 3+ Fe Iron(III) Cu+ Copper(I) Cu2+ Copper(II) Naming oxyanions (root)=Nitrate Per(root)ate pernitrate nitrate (root)ite nitrite Hypo(root)ite hyponitrite NO4‐ NO3‐ NO2‐ NO‐ Naming oxyacids (root)=Nitrate Per(root)ic pernitric acid nitric acid (root)ous nitrous acid hypo(root)ous hyponitrous acid HNO4 HNO3 HNO2 HNO Most common bonding patterns Group 5A Group 6A Group 7A 3 bonds 1 lone pair Nitrogen (N) Phosphorus (P) 2 bonds 2 lone pairs Oxygen (O) Sulfur (S) Selenium (Se) 1 bond 3 lone pairs Fluorine (F) Chlorine (Cl) Bromine (Br) Iodine (I) London forces: • Chance or collisions cause nonpolar molecules to form instantaneous dipoles which induce other nonpolar molecules to form instantaneous dipoles • London forces are the attrxns bxn the partial positive ( +) & partial negative ( ‐) charges in these instantaneously induced dipoles Thought process: • Larger molecules are able to induce more dipoles, have more e‐ & bigger e‐ clouds Æ e‐ are further away from nucleusÆ easier to distort e‐ cloud Æ creates more instantaneous dipolesÆ larger charges on both instantaneous/induced dipoles Æ stronger attrxns bxn dipoles Æ stronger London forces Polar molecules & London forces: • Chance or collisions causes polar molecules to become more polar • More higher polar molecules induce less polar molecules to become more polar • The more polar molecules can induce higher polarity in other less polar molecules resulting in an overall greater polarity bxn all molecules • London forces are the attrxns bxn the partial positive ( +) & partial negative ( ‐) charges in these instantaneously induced dipoles
