spørsmålet English svaret English
Dynamic equilibrium
begynn å lære
The rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal
Kinetic energy
begynn å lære
The energy associated with moving particles
Concentration
begynn å lære
The amount of solute dissolved in a solution
Le Chatelier's Principle
begynn å lære
States that a disturbance to the equilibrium will result in the system adjusting to compensate for the change, and equilibrium is re-established. Some changes include temperature, concentration or pressure.
Catalyst
begynn å lære
A substance that increases the rate of a reaction without itself being consumed in the reaction (also lowers activation energy, thus the reaction reaches equilibrium quicker)
Equilibrium constant (Kc)
begynn å lære
Only temperature can affect the value of Kc*
Self-ionisation of water
begynn å lære
The reaction in which a water molecule loses a hydrogen ion to become a hydroxide ion (OH-) and the hydrogen ion immediately reacts with another water molecule to form a hydronium ion (H3O+)
Esterification
begynn å lære
A condensation reaction between a carboxylic acid and alcohol that generates an ester
Proton donor
begynn å lære
A substance that can donate H+
Monoprotic
begynn å lære
An acid that can donate only one hydrogen ion per molecule
Polyprotic
begynn å lære
An acid that can donate more than one hydrogen ion per molecule
Strong base
begynn å lære
A base that completely ionises in water
Weak base
begynn å lære
A base that doesn't completely ionise in water
Alkaline
begynn å lære
Basic solution
Hydroxyl
begynn å lære
A functional group consisting of an -OH group, which is an oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom joined by a single bond
Carboxylic acid
begynn å lære
A class of organic compound that contains a carboxyl functional group
Electrical conductivity
begynn å lære
The degree to which a material conducts an electric current
Strength
begynn å lære
The level of dissociation of an acid or a base
Strong acid
begynn å lære
An acid that completely ionises in water
Weak acid
begynn å lære
An acid that does not completely ionise in water
Ionic product constant of water (Kw)
begynn å lære
The equilibrium constant for the self-ionisation of water
pH
begynn å lære
A measure of hydrogen ion concentration in a solution and therefore a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution
Limiting reagent
begynn å lære
The reactant in a chemical reaction that determines how much product is made
Conjugate base
begynn å lære
A base formed by removing an H+ from an acid
Conjugate acid
begynn å lære
An acid formed when a base accepts an H+
Amphiprotic
begynn å lære
A molecule or an ion that can either donate or accept a proton and therefore can act as an acid or a base
Buffer solution
begynn å lære
A solution that resists changes in pH when small quantities of acids or alkalis are added
Titration
begynn å lære
The addition of a solution of known concentration to a known volume of another solution of unknown concentration until the reaction reaches neutralisation
Titration curve
begynn å lære
A graph of pH against volume of reactant added
Acid dissociation constant (Ka)
begynn å lære
The equilibrium constant for the dissociation of an acid in aqueous solution
Base dissociation constant (Kb)
begynn å lære
The equilibrium constant for the dissociation of a base in aqueous solution
Indicator
begynn å lære
A chemical substance that changes colour at different pH values
pKa
begynn å lære
A measure of acid strength; the negative common logarithm (to base 10) of an acid dissociation constant
End point
begynn å lære
The point in a titration when the indicator changes colour
Equivalence point
begynn å lære
The point in a titration when the reactants have reacted in the molar ratio of the balanced chemical equation
Standard solution
begynn å lære
A solution of accurately known concentartion
Volumetric analysis
begynn å lære
A quantitative analytical technique for determining the concentration of a solution by titrating it against another solution of known concentration
Half-equivalence point
begynn å lære
A point in a titration curve where the concentration of the titre is equal to half the original concentration of the analyte; also called the midpoint
Buffer region
begynn å lære
The section of a titration curve is relatively flat because adding more acid or base does not drastically affect the pH
Analyte
begynn å lære
A solution of unknown concentration
Oxidation Reaction
begynn å lære
An organic reaction involving the gain of oxygen atoms and/or the loss of hydrogen atoms.
Redox
begynn å lære
A chemical reaction involving the transfer of electrons from one reactant to another
Oxidise
begynn å lære
To lose electrons
Reducing Agent
begynn å lære
A reactant that causes another reactant to gain electrons and be reduced and is itself oxidised.
Oxidising Agent
begynn å lære
A reactant that causes another reactant to lose electrons and be oxidised and is itself reduced
Redox Reaction
begynn å lære
A reaction involving oxidation of one reactant and reduction of the other reactant
Cathode
begynn å lære
The electrode where reduction occurs
Polarity
begynn å lære
The change of an electrode, either positive or negative
Electrode
begynn å lære
A solid conductor of electricity either into or out of a half-cell
External circuit
begynn å lære
The electric circuit (wires) that allows electron movement from anode to cathode.
Salt bridge
begynn å lære
An electrical connection between the two half-cells in a galvanic cell; it allows for the flow of charge by moving ions to the cathode and anions to the anode

A diagram of a galvanic cell that has all the key components, reaction mechanisms and electron/ion movement labelled
Fuel Cell
begynn å lære
A galvanic cell that produces electricity by using a constant supply of reactants (often hydrogen and oxygen) and inert electrodes that don't break down
Inert Electrode
begynn å lære
An electrode that conducts electricity in the half-cell, but doesn't participate in the reaction, i.e. it's neither a reactant nor product
Alkaline Fuel Cell
begynn å lære
A fuel cell that consumes hydrogen and oxygen, producing water, heat and electricity
