Chemistry 110
Study Guide
Chapters 4 & 5
Molarity-know definition
Molarity = #moles/liter = #liters
Be able to tell how you
would prepare a specified volume of a solution of given molarity using pure
solute and water. Problems 4.61, 4.62.
Be able to determine # moles
of solute in a given volume of a solution of known molarity.
Be able to calculate what
volume of a solution contains a given # moles of solute.
Be able to calculate M if #
moles and volume given.
Problems: 4.51, 4.52.
Be able to give directions
for preparing a dilute M solution from a concentrated M solution. Problems
4.59, 4.60.
Know what an electrolyte is
and be able to classify compounds as electrolytes or nonelectrolytes. 4.25 (not
a), 4.26 (not a).
Be able to complete and
balance acid-base (neutralization) reactions. Problem 4.27, 4.28.
Know names and molecular
formulas for: acetic acid, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid,
nitric acid, phosphoric acid.
Solution stoichiometry. Be
able to do problems like 4.67 a&b, 4.68 a&b.
Activity series. Be able to
predict reactions between metals and acids or salts using the activity series
(which will be provided). Be able to write the balanced oxidation-reduction
chemical equations for these reactions. Problems: 4.43 a-d, 4.44 a-c.
Chapter 5
Know what kinetic energy,
potential energy, and heat are, and how they are related by the law of
conservation of energy. Problems: 5.1, 5.2.
We will not study
thermodynamics, which is concerned with converting heat into work.
Know what heats (enthalpies)
of reaction are, and be able to tell if a reaction (process) is exothermic or
endothermic. Problems 5.27 a, 5.28 a.
