CHEM 1B  Dr. R. Rinehart
Quiz #2 Study Guide
Liquids and Solids, Intermolecular Forces
updated 7/2/0
9

The quiz will consist of ~ 1.8 legal-size pages, partly to allow space for diagrams. There will be a time limit of 50 minutes (or so). The types of question formats may include: fill-ins, matching, multiple choice, drawing and/or interpreting diagrams and data tables, writing short descriptions or explanations, and calculations [minimal on this quiz, more extensive for Exam 2 next week].
Pages 526-534 [silicates, cement, ceramics, glass, superconductors] will NOT be involved on this quiz [and will not be on Exam 2 either].

Unit cells will appear on Exam 2 on July 13

In order to answer these questions, you should be able to:

►  define, explain, recognize, and/or apply the key terms on p. 538 [or the corresponding list in another text]

►  relate given molecular structures to the types of intermolecular forces that would result, permitting prediction of such properties as boiling point and solubility in water.

►  satisfy the objectives listed on pp 538 [or the corresponding list in another text], particularly:
        ●  explain the liquid properties of surface tension, vaporization and condensation, sublimation and deposition, vapor pressure and boiling point, and describe how these properties are influenced by intermolecular forces.
       
●  explain the unusual properties of water.
     

 

Subjects from Ch 9 & 11 covered [in my own inimitable range of styles]

 

vocabulary:  I define, you give the term 
 -- sort of like Jeopardy!, but you don't have to put it in the form of a question!

 

phase transitions, phase diagrams, and energy changes

intermolecular attractions: relative strength
 

intermolecular attractions and physical properties:

  intermolecular attractions and physical properties

Since there's much more content in this chapter than what is indicated above, you can expect the additional material [and the stuff above as well] to be covered on Exam 2 next week!
