Chem 1040 Midterm review Fall 2017 Sofia Lamarche Solids, Liquids and Gases -
Matter can be classified by its physical and chemical state
Solids: -
Gases: Rigid, incompressible, fixed shape and volume
Liquids: -
-
Fluid, compressible, no fixed shape or volume
Vapor: matter in gaseous form that's usually
Fluid, incompressible, fixed volume,
liquid or gas
no fixed shape
Significant Figures -
The last # when measures is uncertain
Rules: -
All non zero digits are significant
-
zeros after decimals are significant
-
✖ and
-
and
sig figs in answer = measurement with least # of sig figs sig figs don’t matter, # of decimal digits does. Answer should have the same
# of decimal digits as the measurement with the least # of decimals Exact Numbers: -
Counted #’s or defined units
-
No uncertainty therefore don’t affect sig figs
Rounding: -
If the final digit is 5≤ add round up and drop all other #’s
-
If the final digit is 5> drop all other #’s
Unit Conversions -
All #’s in calculations have associated units
Factor label method: calculations where 1 carries units for quantities -
Treat units as you would algebraic #’s
Atomic Masses -
An atom of an element has mass
-
Present mass scale is the Carbon-12 mass scale: 1 atomic mass units (amu) = 1/12 the mass of Carbon-12 atom
-
Atomic mass of an element is = to the average atomic mass of the naturally occurring element
Mass spectrometer: used to get accurate atom mass. Uses a mass : charge ratio of + atoms Fractional abundance: fraction of the total # of atoms that composes and isotope Periodic Table Period: horizontal row Group: vertical row Features: -
Where electrons in an element are located: where are the shells. s, p, d, f
-
How many electrons are in the shells: s: 2, p: 6, d:10, f:14

Light is an oscillation in electric and
-
magnetic fields -
Characterized by it frequency and
Visible light ranges from 400nm 800nm
-
wavelength
800nm = infrared
Wavelength (λ): distance between adjacent identical points Frequency (𝑉) : # of wavelengths that pass a point / second -
Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.
-
C=λx𝑉
Electromagnetic spectrum: range of λ or 𝑉 of electromagnetic radiation Quantum Effects & Photons Photoelectric effect: light has both wave and particle features E = nhv
where E= energy of vibration
h = plank’s constant= 6.63 x 10^-34
N = principal quantum # v = fixed atom vibration Photon: particle of electromagnetic energy with E proportional to observed frequencies E = hv
Bohr's Theory of the H Atom Line spectrum: spectrum showing only certain wavelengths -
Electrons can only have specific energy values in an atom = energy levels
E = RH / n2
where n = principal quantum #, RH = 2.179 x 10^-18
When electrons transition between energy levels there is an energy loss.
-
If energy change in - energy is lost as a photon. (electron goes from higher energy level to lower 1)
-
If energy change is positive electron gains energy. (goes from lower to higher energy level) will only go up an energy level if there is a collision and absorption of light
Quantum Numbers -
1st 3 numbers define the electron position, the 4th accounts for the spin
Principal Quantum Number n: -
Electron energy depends on n: smaller n = closer to nucleus = smaller energy
-
Energy that relates to distance is potential
-
Orbital size depends on n, larger n value = bigger orbital
-
n= distance from the nucleus
-
n = 1, 2, 3…
Angular Momentum Number ℓ: -
Defines # of orbitals & shape
-
ℓ = n-1….
-
s = ℓ = 0. Can hold 2 electrons
-
d = ℓ = 2. Can hold 10 electrons
-
p = ℓ = 1. Can hold 6 electrons
-
f = ℓ = 3. Can hold 14 electrons
Magnetic Quantum Number mℓ: -
How many orbitals there are in the same shell with the same shape but different orientation
-
mℓ = -ℓ to +ℓ
Quantum Spin Number -
Described possible spin around its axis
-
Its + ½ or - ½
Electron distribution Hunds rule: all orbitals must be ½ full before any can be full Filling order: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p6 … When forming a + ion, remove electron that's farthest away from the nucleus first Transition metals: make orbitals as even as possible. S orbital may not be full before adding to the d orbital. Electron promotion only happens if you’re 1 away from symmetry
Magnetism Paramagnetic: attracted by a magnetic field because of unpaired electrons Diamagnetic: not attracted by a magnetic field because there are no unpaired electrons
Periodic Trends Atomic radii: -
Distance of the outer electron from the nucleus
-
Increase to the left and down. The more electrons an ion has the larger it is
Ionization energy: -
Energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom
-
Increases up and to the right
-
Increase with each electron removed
-
+ valuse
Electron affinity: -
Energy released when a gaseous atom gains an electron
-
Increases up and to the right
-
- value = stable
Electronegativity: -
Measures the tendency of an atom to gain an electron, relative to other elements
-
Increased up and to the right
Oxides Basic oxide: reacts with acid: most metal oxides Acidic oxide: reacts with base: most nonmetal oxides Ionic Radii Ionic radii: measure of the spherical region around the nucleus where an electron is likely to be found -
Increases down any column
Isoelectric: different species with the same # & configuration of electrons
Chemical Bonding Polar vs. nonpolar bonds: -
Type of bond depends on the ΔEN between the 2 atoms
-
A>>>>B EN = ionic
-
A>B EN = polar covalent
-
A = B EN = covalent
Covalent bonds can share electrons in 2 ways -
Evenly: covalent
-
1 atom contributes both electrons: coordinate covalent
Octet rule: tendency of atoms to have 8 electrons in their valence shell Sigma (𝞂) and Pi (π) Bonds -
Multiple bonds are pi bonds
-
Multiple bonds are needed to satisfy
-
-
Total # of electrons in the structure
-
Valencies
When drawing orbital diagrams, first bond is a sigma bond. All others are pi. A pi bond has a portion above and below the axis
-
When Pi bonds are present p orbitals must be present
-
Pi bonds react faster than sigma because there is no orbital overlap
Resonance -
Structures without 1 uniqure lewis structure
-
Must have a pi bond
-
Only the placement of the pi bond can change, in reality there is no actual double bond, each bond is 1.5
Formal Charges -
# of electrons an atom has in a structure vs. what it started with
Formal charge = # of electrons in ground state - (lone pair electrons + ½ of each bond)
-
Sum of the formal charge = charge on the molecule
Lewis Structures -
Accounts for all outer shell electrons
-
Central atom is the least EN atom
-
Draw a single bond between atoms
-
Complete octet by adding electrons.
-
Excess electrons form multiple bonds
OUTER ATOMS MUST HAVE 8 Rules -
When there are multiple possible, choose the one with the lowest magnitude of formal charge
-
When 2 have the same formal charge magnitude choose the one with the - charge on the more EN atom
-
Choose formula without like charges on adjacent atoms
Failures to the Octet Rule Odd electron systems: species without an even # of electrons. Carcinogenic Incomplete: don’t have 8 electrons around the central atom Expanded: have more than 8 electrons around central atom -
Must have a d orbital to expand into
Molecular Shape / Polarity -
Lewis structure allows shape and polarity to be determined
-
Shape affects polarity: symmetry= non polar, no symmetry = polar
3 kinds of electron pairs -
Lone pair
-
Sigma bond
Molecular shapes Valence Shell Electron R epulsion (VSEPR) model makes use of -
Electron pairs trying to be as far from each other as possible
-
Only free and sigma bonds effect shape
Framework Geometry -
Accounts for
-
all electron pairs
Actual molecular shape -
Molecule shape ignores lone pairs
-
Pi bond
Bond angles -
Free electrons require more space, ∴ lone pair bond angle > than expected, all other are smaller than expected
-
Multiple bonds require slightly more space than sigma
