x = log b y and y =b x •
•
A = mass number (# of protons + # of neutrons)
Z = atomic number (# of protons)
Using Dimensional Analysis: • C = charge (# of protons - # of electrons)
1. Write your given information on the left side • # = number of atoms
2. Write “= ______ (desired unit)” on the right side
3. Find equalities that include both the desired unit and the Isotopes: Atoms of same element with different number of
given unit. neutrons (and different mass) are
4. Arrange the equalities so that the given unit cancels. • Mass number refers only to a specific isotope
5. Calculate answer (multiply across top and divide across Calculating average atomic mass: (found on periodic table)
bottom). Atomic mass = Σ(fractional abundance)(mass of that isotope)
Amorphous solid particles are “trapped” in place before Elementary Step: Chemical equation showing reactants in
they can arrange themselves into a repeating pattern. one collision and the products formed.
Three types of crystalline solids: Reaction Mechanism: Series of elementary steps that add
• Atomic solids up to the overall reaction
j. Metallic solids—closest packing of metal atoms.
k. Network solids—one giant molecule. Each atom • k = rate law constant. Is different for each reaction at
is covalently bonded to surrounding atoms each temperature
• Molecular solids—strong covalent bonds within the • [A] = concentration of reactant
molecular, weaker physical attractions between them • [A]0 = initial concentration of reactant
• Ionic solids—electrostatic attraction between ions. Ions are • t = time
stacked to minimize like-charge repulsions Rate Laws:
Order Differential Law Integrated Law
Changes in state involve breaking or forming IMF’s 0 Rate = k [A] = -kt + [A]0
Boiling/Condesation Point: Vapor pressure of liquid = 1 Rate = k[A] ln [A] = -kt + ln [A]0
atmospheric pressure. Liquid and gas at equilibrium 2 Rate = k[A]2 1 / [A] = kt + 1 / [A]0
Melting/Freezing Point: Vapor pressure of solid = Vapor Half life (t½): Time for ½ of the original reactants to
pressure of liquid. Solid and liquid at equilibrium disappear. Use integrated rate law and use [A] = ½ [A]0
Melting: ∆H = m × H fus
Calculating EA
Evaporating: ∆H = m × H vap A = Arrhenius constant (fraction of collisions with correct
orientation); EA = Activation energy (unit of J/mole);
R = 8.31 J/K×mole; T = temperature (in Kelvin. °C + 273=K)
