Question Answer
hello hello ∆
Rate = k[C][D]^d questions will usually be around finding K given [C] and [D] (concentrations)
(rate equations) k only changes as what changes? concentration? pressure? temperature? molarity? k = Ae^(–Ea/RT) k only changes due to ∆Temperature
You'll be asked to use graphs to deduce order of reaction of a reagent. there are two main types: Rate/[conc.] and [conc.]/time turn over plz. Rate/[conc.] are easy; change in conc can either cause no change in rate (0th order), linear change in rate (1st order), or quadratic change (2nd order). [conc.]/time are a bit more tricky; as time goes on, concentration will either decrease in linear fashion (0th order), bit bent (1st order) or really bent (2nd order)
Rate equation contains reactants which are present in (slowest) rate limiting step. (recall mechanisms and how improbable they can be) Using [reagents] present in rate equation you can comment on whether their addition will speed up the reaction by much.
Each temperature has it's very own Kc,which must stay constant for the given temperature no matter what. If you are having trouble with Kc, dedicate a day to learning it really well. Please avoid confusion at all costs.
what affects Kc? catalyst? amount of products? temperature? pressure? nothing? only temperature, since each temperature value has its own dedicated Kc value.
Kp is used for gas systems. you can't use concentrations for gases easily, so partial pressure is used instead. what's the equation of Kp then? Where (Pc)^c is partial pressure of (product) C to the power of mols of C.
Partial pressure of [A] is equivalent to fraction of total pressure which A is responsible for. {(Total pressure)x(Mol(A)/total.Mol)} we assume that any gas (big or small) molecule exerts the same pressure as any other gas molecule in the same quantity.
Brønsted–Lowry theory acid is anything that gives out H+ base is anything that accepts H+ Salt of what-used-to-be-weak-acid can act as a base and accept protons similarly, what-used-to-be-base can release the H+ and act as an acid
pH (Power of hydrogen [H+]x10^pH) -log[H+] = pH water can dissociate into H+ and OH- we are only concerned about the H+ usual concentration of H+ in pure water is 0.0000001 mol/dm^3 (thats 1x10^7, which is pH=7)
what's the pH of the following [H+] concentrations? 0.000001 0.00001 0.001 0.1 1.0 10.0 . 6 5 3 1 0 -1 -log(weight of the protons/their volume dm^3)

The last peak in TOF Spectrometer of a molecule shows what? Last M/Z number IS the total relative mass for the molecule.
You'll need to know the reactions of Nitrotuolene. This is mostly for organic reactions section, but it is a common conversion. Tin metal Sn donates electrons and HCl donates protons. Reacting these with -NO2 group changes it to -NH2 group. This reaction requires 7e- and 6H+. Mechanism not required, imagine it like a porridge reacting- a mess.
Get to know Organic reactions, make reactants your friends, and you'll ace organic test questions. Carbonate- test for acid (CO2) Tollens silver mirror for aldehydes
I hope you remember ∆H you'll need some strength if you don't. Define ∆Hf ∆Hf - enthalpy change when 1mol of compound is made from its elements in their standard states. there are more of these...
∆H -general change of energy stored in bonds ∆Hc - when 1mol of [x] is completely burnt in excess O2 ∆Hf - when 1mol of [x] is made from its elements in their standard states ∆Hat - when 1 mol standard state [x] is converted to 1mol geseous [x] ∆Hd - when 1mol worth of covalent bonds is broken ∆Hi - when 1mol of e- is made from 1mol of gaseous [x] ∆Hea - when 1mol gaseous [x] becomes 1mol gaseous [x]1- (by absorbing electrons) ∆Hl (formation) - when 1mol of ion lattice is made from its charged gaseous components. ∆Hhyd - 1mol of gaseous [x] is completely hydrated by water (link to metal complex ions) ∆Hsol - 1mol of solid dissolved completely in water
