Unit 3 Chemistry

The study of thermal energy in chemistry involves understanding how heat is measured in joules or calories and the specific heat capacity of substances. Specific heat indicates the amount of energy required to change the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

Unit 3 chemistry

Ideal gas law; PV=nRT

Temperature (k)
R: Gas constant
Number of Moles of the gas (mol or Mole)
Volume: (L or mL)
Pressure (atm or kPa)

phase Diagram:

Critical point: the point on the phase diagram at which both the liquid and gas phases of a substance have the same density, which means they are indistinguishable.
Normal boiling point: It's the temperature at which a liquid boils at 1 atmosphere of pressure.
Triple point: It is that temperature and pressure at which the sublimation curve, fusion curve and the vaporization curve meet. or the temperature and pressure at which the solid, liquid, and vapor phases of a pure substance can coexist in equilibrium.
Normal freezing point: 32 degrees fahrenheit or 273.15 Kelvin
Critical pressure: occurs at 218 atm in water

Gas laws

Dalton's Laws of partial pressure: If you have a mixture of gases, the total pressure is the sum is all the pressures of each gas; P total= (P1+P2+........)
Combined gas law: It is a combination of Boyle's and Charles' law, where one of the values does not always have to e constant, so you may use any variables
Charle's Law: As gas temperature increases, Volume increases; equation is V1/T1= V2/T2
Boyles Law: As pressure increases, volume decreases; P1 V1= P2V2

Assumptions made for ideal gases

Particles are in constant motion and travel randomly in straight lines, bouncing off one another
Particles have no intermolecular forces
Particles have no volume

Volume

Definition: the amount of space a gas takes up; measured in Liters (L) for gases; possibly measured in mL; 1L=1000 mL

Units of Pressure

KiloPascals (kPa): The normal atmospheric pressure for this is 101.325 kPa
Atmospheres (ATM): Normal atmospheric pressure is one atm

Matter

In order from Solids to a Gas is the Increase in Entropy and Kinetic Energy
Entropy: How much "Chaos" in the molecules of a substance
Plasma
A Gas heated up so intensely that the electrons break away from their distinct atoms
Gas
Indefinite Shape, Indefinite Volume, Very Disorganized
Solid
Liquid
Indefinite Shape, Definite Volume, Less Organized

Difference between Temperature and heat

Units for temperature: Celsius does not work for gas laws so Kelvins should be used K= Celsius + 273
Temperature: Average Kinetic energy of particles in a substance
Hotter substances having faster moving particles

Thermal energy

^t: Change in Temperature (Celsius)
C: Specific heat capacity
Specific heat: The higher the specific heat, the more energy is needed to heat up the substance/ Lower the specific heat= the less energy is needed
How mush energy it takes to heat up one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius
M: mass (g)
Q: heat energy (Joules or calories)
equation Q=mc^t

Intermolecular Forces (IMF's)

They're Forces that act between stable molecules
Gas: Low IMF, so high Entropy
Liquid: Moderate IMF, so moderate entropy
Solid: Strong IMF, so low entropy
Specific heat capacity
Subtopic

Energy

Definition:

Definite shape, Definite Volume, Highly Organized

Phase change Terminology

Evaporation: Liquid to gas; heat added
Depositions: Gas to Solid phase change
Sublimation: From a solid to a Gas
Solidification: From a liquid to a solid; heat is removed; also called fusion
Melting: From a solid to a liquid ; heat is added
