CEM 142 EXAM 3 MSU ALL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS!!!!
ALREADY GRADED A+



What do you know about reactions? (make a list) - (answer)-Atoms are conserved. They are only re-
arranged.

-Properties of products are emergent (not a mixture of the reactants properties).

-Reactions can be classified by the type of reaction (how it occurs).

-Reactions are always accompanied by an energy change (can be exo and endo) that results from
changed in interactions (bonds and IMFs) in the reactants and products.

-Reactions are always accompanied by an entropy change.



What are the two main typed of reactions? - (answer)-Acid-base

-Redox

*Always accompanied by a changed in entropy.



Can you predict the properties of products if you know the properties of the reactants?

A. Yes

B. No

C. It depends

D. I dont know - (answer)-B

*Properties include smell, melting point, boiling point, and color.



For the reaction: A+B-->C

If A is yellow and B is blue, what color is C?

A. Yellow

B. Blue

C. Green

D. I dont know - (answer)-D

*React NOT mix. C = completely new product.

What thermodynamic function tells you about how far a reaction will "go"?

A. Delta H

B. Delta S (system)

C. Delta G

D. None of these - (answer)-C

*If (+) will NOT happen.

*If (-) WILL happen.



What thermodynamic function tells you about how fast a reaction will "go"?

A. Delta H

B. Delta S (system)

C. Delta G

D. None of these - (answer)-D

*Delta H = energy change / only heat.

*Delta S = Number of possible arrangements in system.

*Delta G = How far the reaction will go.



Reactions can "go" both ____________ and _____________! The sign of __________ will tell you
whether a reaction will go forwards or backwards. - (answer)-Forwards and Backwards.

-Delta G.



How fast a reaction goes depends on...? - (answer)-Activation Energy.



Acid Base reaction are ____________. (speed). However, this does not mean that an Acid Base reaction
will go to...? - (answer)-Fast.

-Completion.

HCl(g) +H2O--> H3O+(aq) +Cl-(aq)

This reaction occurs ______________ and only the ______________ are detectable in the reaction
mixture. - (answer)-Immediately.

-Products.



If you dissolve 0.1 mol HCl in 1L solution-immediately the pH = ? However if you dissolve 0.1 mol acetic
acid in 1L solution-immediately the pH =? - (answer)-1.

-2.9.



Weak Acid Base Reaction are _______ but DO NOT go to ___________. - (answer)-Fast.

-Completion.



Rusting-oxidation of Iron-tends to be slow (you would have to wait a while)-but if you leave it long
enough the reaction will...? - (answer)-Go to completion.



The rate of a reaction has NOTHING to fo with the position of ____________. - (answer)-Equilibrium.

(How fast a reaction is has nothing to do with how far it goes.)



A rate is a ________ in something per unit of time. e.g. speed is miles per hour (miles/hr or mph) or
km/s. - (answer)-Change.



If you travel 120 miles in 2 hours, your rate is...?

A. 120 mph

B. 60 mph

C. 240 mph

D. It depends

*Change in distance traveled / change in time.

Delta Distance / Delta time. - (answer)-B.

, CEM 142 EXAM 3 MSU ALL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS!!!!
ALREADY GRADED A+



(120 miles / 2 hours = 60 mph).



Reaction Rates:

What is changing per unit of time? - (answer)-The amount of the reactant or product (moles!).



Most reactions take place in ____________. So we can use molarity (M, mol/L) as the amount of
reactant (or product). - (answer)-Solutions.



The rate of a reaction is...? - (answer)-the change in concentration per unit of time M/times (or mol/L.s).

-Delta[x]/Delta t.



If the concentration of a reactant X, [X] changed from 1.5M to 0.5 M over 10 seconds, the rate Ould be
change in concentration / change in time, or Delta [X] / Delta t.

A. 1.5 mol/L.s

B. 0.15 mol/L.s

C. 1.0 mol/L.s

D. 0.1 mol/L.s

What is the rate in M/s (or mol/L.s)? - (answer)-D

*(1.5M-0.5M)/10s

*Rate = 1.0M / 10s

*Rate = .1M/s (or 0.1 mol/L.s).



*This rate we just calculated is just an AVERAGE rate (over the time period of 10 seconds).



Rates are usually not ____________. - (answer)-Constant.

*You fan's grow at a constant rate-most reactions don't happen at a constant rate.
