Chemistry 1F92 Review Final Exam
- Reaction quotient mathematically the same as Kp and Kc but is just used to predict the direction of the
reaction
Expression
Qc = Kc
Qc < Kc
Qc > Kc
Shift
NO SHIFT
SHIFT TOWARDS PRODUCTS
SHIFT TOWARDS REACTANTS
Changes in Equilibrium:
Temperature:
- THE ONLY ONE TO CHANGE EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT
- Changes do shift reaction
- Consider H as part of the reaction:
- Positive H is endothermic; consider a reactant (increase in temp pushes forward)
- Negative H is exothermic; consider a product (increase in temp pushes backward)
Changes in Concentration:
- Shifts equilibrium to keep equilibrium constant the same
Examples:
- Removed product will drive reaction forwards
- Added product will drive reaction backwards
Changes in Pressure:
- Affects gases
- Shifts to relieve the applied stress (or lack thereof)
Examples:
- Increased pressure will shift reaction towards side of lower moles
- Decreased pressure will shift reaction towards side of higher moles
Changes in Volume: (inverse of pressure)
- Affects gases
- Shifts to relieve the applied stress (or lack thereof)
Examples:
- Increased volume will shift reaction towards side of higher moles
- Decreased volume will shift reaction towards side of lower moles
Catalysts DO NOT shift reaction or change Kc increase rate in both directions, but no net change
Lecture 59:
Entropy, Free Energy and Equilibria
- Entropy is the measure of disorder; uses units of J/(K*mol)
- Examples:
- Level of Entropy: Solid < Liquid < Gases
- Flexible molecules have more disorder than rigid molecules
- Entropy can locally increase or decrease (but S of the universe always increasing)
- Must factor in state of the reactants and products as well # of molecules
S is negative
S is positive
S is zero
Entropy decreases
Entropy increases
Entropy neutral
Lecture 60:
- Relations between H , S , G
- Remember G values and the spontaneity of the reaction
- Relationship between Kc / Kp and G
Lecture 61:
Electrochemistry Continued:
- Balancing redox reactions
- Reminders:
- O in H2O2 has the oxidation number of -1, NOT -2
- H usually takes on oxidation number of +1, but sometimes can be -1
- The chemical being reduced is the oxidizing agent and the chemical being oxidized is the reducing agent
- Oxidized: loss of electrons; reduced: gain of electrons
Electrochemical Cells (A Battery):
- Generates electricity using a spontaneous redox reaction
- Spontaneous = G < 0 (negative)
System Breakdown:
- Anode: site of oxidation (solid into solution growing anode) and source of electrons
- Cathode: site of reduction (solution into solid growing cathode) and pool of electrons
- Salt Bridge: a salt solution where negative ions head towards anode; positive ions head towards cathode
- Voltmeter in the center of the flow of electrons: calculates cell voltage (EMF)
- DO NOT change the sign of the anode from the table of E o values! ; Expression takes into account
- Batteries MUST have a positive value for voltage
- Remember to balance for electrons!
Finding G of cell:
Lecture 62:
- Relationship between G, K and Ecell all formulas found on formula sheet
- Eo is an intensive property; is not affected by the size of the electrodes or amount of solution
- Ecell only works for 1M solutions; must use Nernst equation when working with non-standard concentrations
- Reactant is the solution in the anode; product is the solution in the cathode
Trend: The greater the anode solution concentration, the smaller the Ecell charge
Trends of the Standard Reduction Potentials
- The more negative the Eo, the more likely to be oxidized (be an anode)
- The more positive the Eo, the more likely to be reduced (be a cathode)
- Large negative value standard reduction potentials are more reactive than the others
Implications: the more negative reactions are easiest oxidized, and hardest reduced
Think back to the electrochemical cell!
Lecture 63:
- Redox reaction reactivity
- If the reaction goes, the species being oxidized is more active
- If the reaction does not go, the species being reduced is more active
Easy way: flip all reactions so they go, find the substance being oxidized its the more reactive one
Electrolysis:
- The inverse of an electrochemical cell; uses electrical energy to force a nonspontaneous reaction to occur
- Eocell is always negative; G is positive
- Current:
Lecture 64:
Organic Chemistry
- Just do practice questions
- Alkanes: CnHn+2
Lecture 65:
- Structural isomers
- Simply follow general form to discover all isomers
Optical isomers
- A molecule which cannot be superimposed upon itself is chiral (achiral if it can)
- Mirror images are called enantiomers / sterioisomers
- Find total number by using the formula: 2n (n = chiral atoms)
- How to discover:
1. Find a carbon that is bonded to four different groups (must be tetrahedral)
2. Make sure theres no reflection plane / axis of symmetry
3. If it fits all above, its chiral.
- Cycloalkanes: CnH2n
- Rings are not planar!
Lecture 66:
- Alkenes: CnH2n
- One double bond
- Relative position of functional groups around double bond is indicated by cis and trans
- Look for the kink; C-shape means cis and bent line means trans
Lecture 67:
- Alkynes: CnH2n-2
- One triple bond; no cis or trans
Alkane Reactions:
- Fairly unreactive; saturated compounds
- Can be reacted with halogens to produce a haloalkane and acid
Alkene Reactions:
- Alkenes are more reactive
- HX (acid halogens) added to the alkenes break double bond
- Markovnikovs Rule: Halogen is added to the carbon with the least number of existing hydrogens
- The rich get richer; the carbon with the most hydrogens get more hydrogen
- Aromatic Hydrocarbons
- Benzene!
- Delocalized electrons with alternate double bonds
- Delocalized orbitals in the pz orbital
- Benzene when on main chain, phenyl when functional group
Lecture 68:
- Aromaticity: must be a ring, must have 3, 5,7,9 + double bonds
