1

3 phases of matter

Solids, liquids, and solids

New cards
2

Solid

Crystalline structure, non-compressible

New cards
3

Liquid

no structure, but touching, non-compressible

New cards
4

Gas

No structure, spread out, compressible.

New cards
5

Physical properties

Properties that can be used to identify the substance(element)

New cards
6

Melting point

point when a solid becomes a liquid

New cards
7

Boiling point (Vaporization)

point when a liquid becomes a gas

New cards
8

Freezing point (Solidification)

point when a liquid becomes a solid

New cards
9

Sublimation

Solid to gas

New cards
10

Density

how closely packed matter is in a given volume

New cards
11

Atomic radius

refers to the space a specific element occupies.

New cards
12

Potential energy

Stored energy

New cards
13

kinetic energy

energy of the motion of particles. (Kind of temperature)

New cards
14

Temperature

the average measure of kinetic energy.

New cards
15

Kelvin

absolute zero (no zeros)

New cards
16

Endothermic

Absorbs heat

New cards
17

Exothermic

Releases heat

New cards
18

Heat of fusion

Solid ⇌ liquid (Melting point)

New cards
19

334 j/g

Heat of fusion for water (On reference table)

New cards
20

heat of vaporization

Liquid ⇌ Gas (Boiling point)

New cards
21

2260 j/g

Heat of vaporization for water (On reference table)

New cards
22

Specific heat capacity

there is a change in temp, but not phase.

New cards
23

4.18 j/gk

Specific Heat capacity of water (On reference table)

New cards
24

q=mHv

equation for heat of vaporization

New cards
25

q=mHf

equation for heat of fusion

New cards
26

q=mC∆T

equation for specific heat capacity

New cards
27

Properties of gasses

-Particles are traveling in straight-line paths and are randomly distributed, -No definite shape or volume, -Large distances between particles, low densities, -Can be compressed, -Can be liquified at low temperatures and high pressures

New cards
28

STP

Standard temperature pressure

New cards
29

Standard pressure

1 atm or 101.3 kPa or 760 torr

New cards
30

Standard temperature

0°C 273°K

New cards
31

Boyle's Law

relationship between pressure and volume (says that the volume occupied by a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted on the gas)

New cards
32

Charles's Law

Describes the relationship between volume and temperature (Says that the volume occupied by a gas is directly proportional to the temperature(in kelvin))

New cards
33

Combined gas Law equation

(P1)(V1)/ T1 = (P2)(V2)/ T2

New cards
34

Uses for combined gas law

to find missing factors such as temperature, volume, or pressure, if one of those has also been changed.

New cards
35

KMT

Kinetic Molecular Theory

New cards
36

properties of KMT (Ideal gas)

-gases move in a random, constant, straight line motion -Have negligible volume -no attraction between particles -If gas molecules do collide no energy is lost or gained

New cards
37

Ideal gas

gas that follows all rules in KMT

New cards
38

Real gas

gas molecules do have a volume and weak attractive forces

New cards
39

High temperature and low pressure

Conditions when Real gas acts most like Ideal gas

New cards
40

Vapor pressure

The pressure that vapor exerts when the temperature of a liquid increases.

New cards
41

calorimetry

How to measure the amount of heat absorbed or released in a chemical reaction.

New cards
42

Specific Heat

the heat required to increase the temperature of a substance by 1 degree

New cards
43

Bromine and mercury

The two elements that are liquid at room temp

New cards
44

Iodine and Carbon Dioxide

The two elements that Sublimate at STP

New cards
45

Pressure increases

when volume decreases
