Kinetic molecular theory
A model that describes the behavior of ideal gases in terms of tiny particles that are in constant, random motion.
-
Boyle's Law
The volume, V, occupied by a sample of gas is inversely proportional to pressure,P, at constant temperature.
P1V1 = P2V2
-
Charles's Law
The volume, V, occupied by a sample of gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature, T, at constant pressure.
V1/T1 = V2/T2
-
Gay Lussac's Law
- For sample of gas with a constant volume, its pressure, P, is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature, T.P1/T1 = P2/T2
-
Vaporization
The process by which molecules of a volatile liquid break away or escape and go into the gas.
-
Condensation
The conversion of a vapor to a liquid by cooling the vapor.
-
Difference between vapor and condensation...
Vapors are gasses..
condensation is a liquid or solid formed from a gas cooling off...
-
Temperature Conversions
F = 9/5 C +32 K = C +273
C = 5/9 (F - 32) C = K - 273
-
Solution
A system in which one or more substances are uniformly and homogeneously mixed or dissolved in another substance.
-
Solute
One of the components of a solution - the substance which has been dissolved.
-
Solvent
one of the components of solution - The substance which does the dissolving.
-
Soluble
Capable of being dissolved.
-
Solubility
Usually expressed as the maximum number of grams of a substance solute which will dissolve in 100 grams of solvent at a definite temperature.
-
Dilute Solution
Contains a small of solute in comparison to the amount of solvent.
-
Saturated solution
A solution which contains all the solute it can dissolve at a given temperature. (Rate of crystallization is equal to the rate of solution; an equilibrium has been reached).
-
Concentrated Solution
Contains a large amount of solute in comparison to the amount of solvent.
-
Unsaturated Solution
All solution containing less solute than it could normally dissolve at a given temperature.
-
Supersaturated Solution
Any solution containing more solute than it can normally hold or dissolve at a given temperature.

-
Percent Solutions
A solution whose solute and solvent have a definite relationship. A 5% solution of sugar contains 5 grams of sugar for every 95 grams of water.
-
Molar Solutions
Contains one mole of solute per one liter of solution.
-
Molal
Contains one mole of solute dissolved in 1,000 grams of solvent.
-
Normal Solutions
Contains one gram-equivalent weight of solute in which sufficient solvent has been added to make a total of one liter of solution. the equivalent-weight is taken as the gram-molecular weight of the substance divided by the total positive valence number.

-
Suspention
A nonuniform mixture of insoluble particles which slowly settle on standing. Suspensions are usually opaque and cloudy.
-
Colloidal Dispersion
A suspension in which the suspended particles readily pass through ordinary filters and do not settle out on standing. Colloidal suspensions will reflect a powerful beam of light. This indication of the presence of colloid particles is called the Tyndall Effect.
-
Tyndall Effect
A beam of light passing through a colloidal solution.
Ex. The light at the movie theater that originated from the projection booth and ends at the screen.
-
Ionization
The Formation of ions from individual atoms.
-
Dissociation
The process whereby a chemical substance breaks up into simpler component parts (molecules or ions) when it melts or when it dissolves in a solvent.
-
Osmosis
The selective passage of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane.
-
Diffusion
the spontaneous mixing of gases at constant pressure.
