Avogadro number
6.23 x 10^23 (number of particles per mole)
use of Ca(OH)2 and Mg(OH)2
Ca(OH)2: neutralizes soil acidity in agricultural Mg(OH)2: neutralizes stomach acid
an acid releases ____ _________ in an aqueous solution
H+ ions
In what molecules can hydrogen bonds form?
N, O, F
common ions
NO3, CO3(-2), SO4(-2), NH4(+1)
hydrated
a crystalline compound containing water molecules
what may arise when covalently bonded atoms have different electronegativities and what will it result in?
a permanent dipole and it results in a polar molecule
orbital
a region that can hold up to 2 electrons with opposite spins
Periodicy
a repeating pattern across differant periods
covalent bond
a shared pair of electrons
how do van der waals forces arise?
an uneven distribution of electrons at any point in time causing an instantaneous dipole in a neighboring atom attracting the atoms to one another
isotopes
atoms of the same element with a different mass number and number of neutrons
what is used as the standard measurement of relative masses?
carbon-12
ionisation energy has a general _______ down a group
decrease (increase radius, increase shell => increase shielding which overcomes the increase in nuclear charge)
reactivity ________ down group 7
decreases (due to increase in atomic radius and more shielding, less attraction between outer electrons and nucleus, therefore it attracts electrons less and the electronegativity is less)
p orbital shape
dumbbell shape
redution
gain of electrons (decrease in oxidation number)
common acids
hydrochloric acid: sulfuric acid: nitric acid:
ionisation energy has a general ___________ across a period
increase (greater nuclear charge, little/no diff. in shielding)
reactivity ___________ down group 2
increases (due to increase in atomic radius and more sheilding, less attraction between nucleus and outer electrons, therefore loses electrons more easily)
oxidation
loss of elections(increases in oxidation number)
molar mass
mass per mole of a substance (units= g/mol)
common bases
metal oxides, metal hydroxides, and ammonia
the unit for "amount of a substance"
mole
need to know formulas
n=g/Mr n=CV n=V/24dm^3 n x Avogadro number= number of mulectules
ionization energies are affected by:
nuclear charge, electron shielding and the distance from the outer most electron to the nucleus
salt
produced when the H+ ion of an acid is replaced by a metal ion or NH4+
relative charge and relative mass of a proton, neutron, and electron
proton: charge=+1 mass=1 neutron: charge=0 mass=1 electron: charge=-1 mass=1/2000th
disproportionation
reaction in which an element is both reduced and oxidised
what is the shape of a simple molecule determined by?
repulsion between electron pairs surrounding a central atom (lone pairs repel more than bonded pairs)
acid+carbonate=
salt+CO2+ H2O
acid+metal=
salt+H2
aid+base=
salt+H2O
common alkalia
sodium hydroxide: potassium hydroxide: aqueous ammonia:
alkali
soluble base that releases OH- ions in an aqueous solution
s orbital shape
spherical
electronegativity
the ability of an atom to attract the bonding electrons in a covalent bond
molecular formula
the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule
metallic bonding
the attraction of positive ions to delocalised elecrons
ionic bonding
the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions
first ionazation energy
the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions
ionization energy
the energy required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of molecules in the gaseous state
atomic number
the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
empirical formula
the simplest whole number ratio of of each atom of an element present in a compound
mass number
the sum of the number of neutrons and protons in an atomic nucleus
relative atomic mass
the weighted mean mass of an atom of an element compared with one-twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12
relative isotopic mass
the weighted mean mass of an atom of an isotope compared with one-twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12
water of crystallization
water molecules that form an essential part of the crystalline structure of a compound
when do you state the oxidation state of an element using roman numerals?
when it may be ambiguous otherwise
dative covalent bond
when the shared pair of electrons comes from only one atom
anhydrous
without water
