Explain how the addition of a solute to a solvent affects the vapor pressure of the solvent.
The addition of a solute will lower the vapor pressure of a solvent. The solute particles interfere with the solvent particles which lessens the amount of solvent that evaporates. Less molecules evaporating = less vapors = lower vapor pressure.

What is Boiling Point (Elevation)? (Longer Explanation)
The boiling point elevates with the addition of a solute to the solvent. For a substance to boil, atmospheric pressure pushing down must equal vapor pressure pushing up. Solute particles interfere with the solvent at the surface so it will take more energy to get the solvent particles to push their way to evaporate meaning you have to heat the solution to a higher temperature.

How does NaCl affect H2O in a solution?
The water attaches to the salt. The particles wont be colliding just as H2O some particles will be trapped by NaCl and will need to pass through. The water won't vaporize as quickly resulting in a longer amount of time to boil the water, the longer it takes for the water to boil the less time it takes for it took cook.

Explain why calcium chloride spread on icy roads would be more effective at melting ice than sodium chloride.
This is a colligative property which is dependent among the number of solute particles. Ionic compounds dissociate into ions which increases their effectiveness at lowering freezing points. CaCl2 would dissociate to 3 ions per formula unit versus 2 ions per formula unit for NaCl. Greater number of ions has a greater effect.

True or False : A heterogeneous catalyst exists in a different physical state than the reaction it catalyzes
True
What is Vapor Pressure (Lowering)? (Longer explanation)
Vapor pressure decreases with the addition of the solute to the solvent. There are solute particles interfering with the solvent at the surface of the solution. Less of the solvent will then be able to evaporate and push upwards because the solute is at the surface too. Since less solvent is evaporating, the vapor pressure drops because there is not gas pushing upwards.
Use collision theory to explain why reactions should occur more slowly at lower temperatures
WHEN TEMPERATURE IS DECREASED THERE ARE FEWER COLLISIONS AND LESS ENERGY.
Why does it take longer to cook pasta properly in boiling water in Denver (the "mile high city") than it does in New York City?
Water boils at a lower temperature in Denver. Places at higher elevation have lower atmospheric pressure so it would take less time to boil the water, but the temperature would also be lower.
Why is water called the universal solvent?
Water is a polar covalent molecule.
Explain this example of proper orientation NO3 + CO → NO2 + CO2
When NO3 and CO react together, they must collide with sufficient energy and with the nitrogen atom in NO3 colliding with the carbon atom in CO. In other words - the nitrogen and carbon atoms must "bump" together. (Think in terms of the two like charges must repel, one pos and one neg for the reaction to take place)
What is the definition of endothermic?

What is the definition of exothermic?
When energy is released. ( - Delta H)
What is the definition of the colligative property: Vapor Pressure (Lowering)?
When pressure is exerted in a closed container by the solvent particles as they evaporate form a liquid into a gas, the evaporated gas then rises and pushes on the container top creating upward pressure (aka vapor pressure).
What is the definition of the colligative property: Freezing Point (Depression)?
When you have a low temperature, you have low kinetic energy. Freezing happens when energy is low enough for particles to stay close together.
