35 terms
Terms | Definitions |
|---|---|
n | Principle Quantum number; energy level |
l | Azimuthal quantum number; (n + l)s,p,d,f (0,1,2,3) |
ml | magnetic QN; orbital; each orbital gets 2 electrons |
ms | magnetic spin number; + or - 1/2 |
Hund's Rule | in a subshell, the orbitals will fill half full of electrons in the same direction before any are paired |
Z | Atomic number; number of protons |
A | Atomic mass; protons + neutrons |
Effective Nuclear Charge | Attractive, positive charge of the nucleus as percieved by a valence electron |
Ionization Energy | Energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous state |
Electron Affinity | energy released when an electron is added to outer shell |
Electronegativity | Attraction of an atom for electrons in a bond; F is most electronegative |
Metal CharacterisiticsG1&2 | 1. electropositive(give up e-)2. good conductors of heat and electricity 3. malleable |
Ionic Bonding | transfer of electronsmetal and nonmetal |
Covalent Bonding | sharing of electronsnon metal and non metal polar and non polar |
Formal Charge | 1. Charge on an atom if the valence electrons in the covalent bond were shared equally2. FC = VE - (sticks + dots) |
Electronic Geometry | arrangement of electrons |
molecular geometry | arrangement of bound electrons (bonds) |
Linear | AX2180 degrees |
Trigonal Planar | AX3120 degrees |
Bent | AX2E, AX2E2104.5 degrees |
Tetrahedral | AX4109.5 degrees |
Trigonal Pyramidal | AX3E107 degrees |
Trigonal Bipyramidal | AX5 |
Octahedrahal | AX6 |
Square Planar | AX4E2 |
Intramolecular Forces | Result of electrostatic interactions between different charges or partial charges on different moleculesStrength: 1. Ion-Dipole 2.H bonding 3.Dipole Dipole 4. London Forces (non polar) |
Boiling Point Factors | 1) size2) intermolecular forces 3) stacking |
Boyle's Law | P1V1 = P2V2 |
Charles' Law | V1/T1 = V2/T2 |
Ideal Gas Law | PV = nRT |
STP | 273 K1 atm 1 mol g = 22.4 L |
When do gases deviate from ideal behavior? | High pressureLow Temperature |
Dalton's Law | Ptot = Pa+Pb=Pc...Pa=XaPtot |
Graham's Law | The speed of gas particles is inversely proportional to the square root of their molecular weight at the same tempRate A/Rate b = sqrt (MMb/MMa) Big gases move slow and small gases move fast |
Van der Waals | (P + n2a/v2)(V-nb) = nRT |
