  • Solids
    • Molecules simply vibrate and rotate in place rather than move about
    • Held together by ionic or strong covalent bonding
    • Attractive forces between the atoms, ions, or molecules are very strong
    • Particles are held in fixed positions and have very little freedom of movement
    • Have definite shapes and definite volumes and are not compressible to any extent
  • Crystalline solids

    • Atoms, ions, or molecules that make up the solid exist in a regular, well-defined arrangement
    • The smallest repeating pattern is known as the unit cell
  • Amorphous solids
    • Do not have much order in their structures
    • Molecules are close together and have little freedom to move, but are not arranged in a regular order as in crystalline solids
  • Types of Solids
    • Ionic solids
    • Metallic Solids
    • Molecular Solids
    • Network Solids
    • Amorphous Solids
  • Ionic solids

    Held together by electrostatic interactions between cations and anions
  • Metallic Solids
    Held together by attraction among positively charged metal atom cores and valence electrons
  • Molecular Solids

    Held together by intermolecular interactions such as London forces, dipole-dipole, and hydrogen bonding
  • Network Solids
    Bonded together into infinite molecules by covalent bonds between atoms
  • Amorphous Solids
    Held together by covalent bonds but no long-range repeating pattern
  • Solution
    • A homogeneous mixture
    • Uniform distribution of solution
    • Two solutions made up of same substances may have different composition
    • May be gas, liquid, or solid
    • Particle size distinguishes solutions from other mixtures
  • Solute
    Generally the substance present in relatively small amount
  • Solvent
    The medium where solutes are dissolved
  • Concentrated
    Relatively large quantity of solute dissolved
  • Dilute
    Relatively small quantity of solute dissolved
  • Types of Solutions
    • Saturated
    • Unsaturated
    • Supersaturated
  • Saturated solutions
    Have concentrations at the solubility limit for a given temperature
  • Unsaturated solutions
    Have concentration less than the solubility limit
  • Supersaturated solutions
    Concentration of solute is greater than the normal solubility limit, facilitated by an increase in temperature
  • Miscible solutions

    Two liquids dissolve in each other in all proportions
  • Immiscible solutions
    Two liquids that are insoluble to each other are paired
  • Factors Affecting Solubility
    • Intermolecular Forces
    • Partial Pressure of Solute Gas over Liquid Solution
    • Temperature
  • Substances that are held together by the same type of intermolecular forces exhibit increased levels of solubility
  • Increased partial pressure of a solute gas over a liquid increases its solubility and vice versa
  • Solubility of solid-liquid and liquid-liquid solutions increases with rising temperature
  • Solubility of gas-liquid solutions decreases with rising temperature
  • Energy
    The capacity to do work
  • Types of Energy
    • Kinetic Energy
    • Potential Energy
  • Kinetic Energy
    Energy in motion
  • Potential Energy
    Energy resulting from position
  • Energy Units
    • Joules (J)
    • Calories (cal)
  • The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed- the total energy of the universe is constant
  • Heating
    An energy transfer process that happens when two samples of matter at different temperatures are brought into contact
  • Internal Energy
    The sum of the individual energies of all nanoscale particles
  • ΔE = Efinal - Einitial
  • If ΔE > 0 internal energy increases, if ΔE < 0 internal energy decreases
  • ΔE = q + w
    q = quantity of energy by heating, w = quantity of energy by doing work, ΔE = change in internal energy
  • Heat Capacity
    The quantity of energy required to increase the temperature of that sample by one degree
  • Specific Heat Capacity
    Quantity of energy needed to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius
  • Molar Heat Capacity
    Quantity of energy that must be transferred to increase the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsius
