13857453117Quantum numbersQuantum numbers are used to provide a more detailed description of electrons in an atom.59
13857453118Atomic radius decreases as atomic number increases from left to right becauseNuclear charge attraction to electrons, Z, is produced by protons in the nucleus attracting outer electrons. Coulombic attractions60
13857453119Reason why atomic radius increases as period increases down familiesElectrons in higher numbered periods are in successively higher energy levels placing the valence electrons farther from the attractions of the protons in the nucleus.61
13857453120Summary of periodic table trends for atomic radiiSmallest in the upper right-hand corner Largest in the lower left hand corner62
13857453121Knowing the trends vs explaining the trendsExplaining requires knowing the cause of the trends Referencing a periodic trend does not constitute an explanation of atomic property differences Zeff, number of shells, distance of principle energy levels from the nucleus can be valid explanations.63
13857453122PES graphsPES is an experimental method for determining the binding energies and electronic structure of an atom The data is produced by kicking electrons out of atoms using high energy photons. AP Question PES graphs will always have the highest binding energies of interior electrons to the left with lower binding energies to the right in a logarithmic scale. PES graphs will group the subshells in their respective energy levels. The number of electrons in the subshell determines the height of each subshell peak. Electron configurations mirror PES graphs64
13857453123PES graph shifts with increasing atomic sizeAs the number of protons increases the peaks shift left indicating the greater binding energy of the protons to the electrons.65

13857453147What is electronegativity?Electronegativity is an atom's attraction to the shared pair of electrons in a covalent bond Differences in electronegativity can lead to polar bonds and result in a dipole89
13857453148Hybridizations and p orbitals combine in sigma bonding 2 domains = sp hybrid 3 domains = sp2 hybrid 4 domains = sp3 hybrid Each double bond only has one sigma bond, so double bonds only count for one domain.90
13857453149Single vs Double bondsSingle bonds (sigma) are longer and weaker than double bonds Double bonds (sigma with pi) are shorter and stronger than single bonds and have a greater bond energy In a double bond, the pi bond is weaker91
13857453150Resonance structuresIf a double bond can be placed in alternative locations on the molecule, resonance structures are used to explain bonding.

13857453184What is distillation and the distillate?Distillation is used to separate solution mixtures by evaporating the most volatile components. The condensed vapor is called the distillate.126
13857453185What is chromatography?Chromatography is a method of separating small quantities of components of a mixture using differences in intermolecular attractions. Typically, there is a solvent and a fixed media. The solvent will carry the substances in the mixture with similar IMFs to the solvent, leaving behind the substances that are more attracted to the fixed media.127
13857453186What does Rf indicate?Rf is an indicator of the mixture component's attraction to the solvent. If the Rf is close to 1, then the solute's IMF's are the same as the solvent. If the Rf is small, then the solute's IMF's will be similar to the fixed media.128
13857453187What is a spectrophotometer and how does it work?A spectrophotometer uses the absorption of light to determine the concentration of solution.129

13857453198Energy barrier to the formation of products that determines the reaction rateEa, the activation energy, is always endothermic Activation energy does not change the deltaH of the reaction140
13857453199What two factors are required for a successful activated complex collision?1. The collision must have sufficient energy to create the activated complex. 2. The collision must have the proper orientation for the collision to make the activated complex. On FRQs regarding successful collisions, both factors must be mentioned for credit.141
13857453200What is kinetic control of a reaction?High activation energies may slow the rate of a thermodynamically favored reaction so much that it may not occur because none of the collisions can be successful to make the product142
13857453201What does a catalyst do?Catalyst lowers the Ea for both forward and reverse reactions. A catalyst allows the reaction to reach equilibrium faster.143
13857453202What doesn't a catalyst do?A catalyst doesn't change the equilibrium constant K. Catalyst does not change deltaG or deltaH144
13857453203How is a catalyst identified in a multi-step reaction? How is an intermediate identified in a multi-step reaction? Which of the two can be included in a rate law?Step 1: A+B=C Step 2: C+D = E+B Net: A+D = E B, the catalyst, is present as a reactant and produced as a product later in a multi-step reaction C is an intermediate, and even if it were in the slow step, would never be included in a rate law expression B is a catalyst and may be included in a rate law rate = k[a][b]145

13857453206In a multi-step reaction, which step determines the rate law expression?The slowest step in the reaction determines the reactants in the rate law expression148
13857453207How does an equilibrium reaction affect the reaction rate?An equilibrium reaction preceding a slow step will result in the reactants of the fast equilibrium step to be included in the rate law expression Step 1: A=X fast Step 2: X+A=>B slow Step 1 has an equilibrium that will affect [X]. A can be used to substitute [X] rate = k[A]^2149
13857453208What does the Boltzmann Molecular Speed graph look like at different temperatures? What is plotted on the X and Y axis, and how does it explain the increase of a reaction rate?At a higher temperature, the total number of molecules is unchanged, but a greater percentage have the energy for successful collisions. y axis is the number of molecules at a given speed x.150
13857453209KeqThe equilibrium constant is the ratio of products/reactants Keq > 1 means a greater concentration of products than reactants when the reaction has reached equilibrium Keq < 1 means a greater concentration of reactants than products when reaction reaches equilibrium An equilibrium constant in the area of millions means the reaction will go to completion A really tiny Keq means very little product will be made151
13857453210Kc and KpKc = Kp only when mole gas reactant = mol gas product152
13857453211Solids and liquids in the Keq expression(s) and (l) are never included in the equilibrium expression because the concentrations of pure substances in a reaction rarely change153
13857453212Temperature and the equilibrium constantK is the value of the equilibrium expression at equilibrium. It is only changed by temperature. In exothermic rxn, K decreases with increases in pressure In endothermic rxn, K increases with increases in pressure154

13857453218What is an amphiprotic substance?A substance that can donate or accept a proton and thus act as an acid or base. H2O and HCO3- are amphiprotic160
13857453219Neutral water Relationship between [H] and [OH] pH and pOH Kw @ 25 C pKw @ 25 C Temperature changes for Kw and pKwNeutral water is when [H+] = [OH-] and pH = pOH At all temperatures Kw = [H] x [OH] and pKw = pH + pOH neutral water: pH = 7, pKw = 14, Kw = 1e14 As temp increases, pKw decreases and Kw increases161

13857453222How are conjugates related to the original acid-base and which will be favored at equilibriumAn acid reactant will become the conjugate base. A base reactant will become the conjugate acid. The stronger of the two acids (acid or conjugate acid) will be present in lower concentrations at equilibrium)164

13857453226NIE for a weak base and a strong acidWeak base, strong acid H+ + B -> HB+168
13857453227Equivalence point in titration and indicatorsEquivalence point means that the solutions have been mixed and all the acid HA has reacted and been changed into A- An indicator changes color at a specific pH range which is the pKa of the indicator The idea indicator has a pKa = to the pH at the equivalence point.169
13857453228OvertitrationOnce past the equivalence point, the excess strong acid or base moles and volume of solution are used to determine the pH or pOH directly without the need for a Keq expression170
13857453229Half-equivalence pointWhen o.5 of the [HA] has turned into [A-] remaining [HA] = [A-] Ka = [H+] pKa = pH171
