5.6 x 10

J ) / (6.626 x 10-34

Js/pho) = 6.5 x 1018

Hz

5. What is the energy of blue light that has a wavelength of 650 nm?

Covert nm m: 650 nm = 650 x 10-9

m

c = λf

f = c / λ = 3.0 x 10 8 m/s /

650 x 10

-9 m = 4.62 x 10

14 Hz

E = hf = (6.626 x 10-34

Js/pho) (4.62 x 1014

J ) = 3.1 x 10-19

J

6. Draw an orbital box diagram of chromium. Which electrons would it lose to form a 2+ ion?

The 2 - 4s electrons would be lost.

Mr. Storie 40S Chemistry Final Exam Review

7. Calculate the number of orbitals in the third energy level. Show your work.

The number of orbitals is calculated by the formula: n2

Where n=3 (3)2 = 9

(3s 3p 3d) 1 3 5 = 9

8. Draw Lewis dot diagrams and use VSEPR to predict the shapes of the following molecules. Include

valence electron count and account for all electrons.

a) AlCl3

Ionic compound – does not follow VSEPR rules.

b) PO4

-3

5 + 4(6) + 3 = 32 – 8 = 24

4 bp / 0 lp Tetrahedral

c) PH3

5 + 3(1) = 8 - 6 = 2

3 bp / 1 lp Trigonal Pyramidal

d) SF6

6 + 6(7) = 48 – 12 = 36

6 bp / 0 lp Octahedral

Mr. Storie 40S Chemistry Final Exam Review

e) OCl2

6 + 2(7) = 20 – 4 = 16

2bp / 2 lp Bent

9. Identify which molecules in question 9 are polar.

C and E are polar only.

10. What is the general trend observed for ionization energy? Explain this trend for ionization energies;

include reasoning for the trend in a group and the trend in a period.

Increases across and decreases down the Periodic table.

In a group (down) shell number increases, valence electrons are increasingly far away and there is

more shielding. They experience less nuclear force leading to less energy required energy to

remove.

In a period (across) electrons are added to the same shell number, so no appreciable difference in

shielding or distance. However across there is an increase in nuclear charge with additional

protons added. This increased nuclear force increases energy requirements.

11. What are the trends observed for electronegativity, electron affinity, and metallic character?

EN: Increases across, decreases down.

EA: Increases across, decreases down.

Metallic character: Decreases across.

12. By considering the electron arrangement for the atoms oxygen and nitrogen, explain why the first

ionization energy of oxygen is lower than that of nitrogen in spite of the fact that the trend predicts the

opposite. (Hint: draw the orbital box diagram of each)

O: 1s2 2s2 2p4 - unstable

N: 1s2 2s2 2p3 - stable

Half-filled and completely filled orbitals are MORE stable. Nitrogen has a half-filled p-shell

(3/6). Oxygen is one electron “over” stable (4/6). Oxygen benefits in stability by losing an

electron and therefore it requires less energy than the more stable Nitrogen.

all electrons.

a. H2S

b. XeF4

14. Using Lewis dot diagrams and VSEPR theory predict the shapes of the following molecules. Show the

valence electron count and account for all electrons. Indicate the number of bonding pairs and lone pairs

of electrons. Draw the 3-D representation of the molecules.

a. NF3

b. PI5

Mr. Storie 40S Chemistry Final Exam Review

15. Explain the difference between polar covalent bonds, non-polar covalent bonds, ionic bonds and

coordinate covalent bonds.

Polar Covalent bonds: Electronegativity differences between 0.4-1.9, leads to “unequal” sharing of

bonding electrons and +/- dipole regions in the molecule.

Non-polar bonds: EN differences between 0-0.4, leads to “equal” sharing of bonding electrons and

a neutral molecule.

Ionic bonds: EN differences > 1.9, leads to “giving and taking” of bonding electrons and positive

and negative ion formation, which stay together due to attractive forces.

Coordinate Covalent: one atom donates both electrons in a single covalent bond.

OH- + H

+ H2O

HOI + H+ + I

- I2 + H2O

Intermediate is a particle that is a product in one step and a reactant in another step of the

mechanism. It does not appear in the overall reaction equation.

b. Determine which of the steps is the RDS, and explain how the conclusion was reached.

The RDS is the slowest step. Only changes to particles within the RDS affect the reaction rate.

Only those particles that have an effect on rate appear in the rate law. Therefore the Rate Law

equation indicates which is step is the RDS.

Step 1 has the reactants that appear in the Rate Law, and must be the RDS.

10. A solution was made by dissolving 28.5 g of KOH in 0.50 L of water. If 0.250 L of this solution was

titrated with 0.136 L of H2SO4, what is the molarity of the acid? 0.938 M

2 KOH + H2SO4 K2SO4 + 2 H2O

Be careful here, you have two volumes of base. You must use the first to find the original concentration

of the base, than use the second to find the number of moles of base you actually used.

First convert grams to moles and divide by volume to get concentration of base:

(28.5 g KOH) x 1 mole KOH x ___1____ = 1.018 M KOH

56 g KOH 0.50 L KOH

Use the balanced equation to find moles of base, use the molar ratio to convert into moles of acid and

calculate concentration (pay attention to units!):

(1.018 mol KOH) x (0.250 L KOH) x 1 mole H2SO4 x ___1____ = 0.936 M H2SO4

3. Sketch a galvanic cell between copper and barium. Show the direction of electron flow and ion

migration, identify the anode and cathode, the species present in each half-cell, indicate the voltage on a

voltmeter, and label the electrodes. Also show the half-reactions, overall cell reaction and the Emf

calculation.

Cathode reaction: Cu2+

+ 2e- Cu(s)

Anode reaction: Ba(s) Ba2+

+ 2e-

Overall reaction: Ba(s) + Cu2+

Ba2+

What is the cell voltage? 2.90 + 0.34 = + 3.24 V

4. For each of the following cells write half-reactions, give the balanced net cell reaction, and calculate

the Emf of the cell.

a) Al3+

(aq) + Mg(s) → Al(s) + Mg2+

(aq)

b) Cr(s)│Cr3+

(aq) (1.0 mol/L)║Ag+

(aq) (1.0 mol/L)│Ag(s)

a) 2 (Al3+

(aq) + 3 e- → Al(s))

3 (Mg(s) → 2 e- + Mg

2+(aq)) Balance half-reactions to make electrons equal.

2 Al3+

(aq) + 3 Mg(s) → 2 Al(s) + 3 Mg2+

(aq)

Ecell = 2.37 + (-1.66) = + 0.71 V

b) 3 (Ag1+

(aq) + 1 e- → Ag(s))

1 (Cr(s) → 3 e- + Cr

3+(aq))

1 Cr(s) + 3 Ag1+

(aq) → 1 Cr3+

5. Write out anode and cathode reactions for the electrolysis of the following.

a) CaCl2(l) b) CuI2(l)

Electrolysis is the reverse – what you expect to oxidize is reduced and vice versa.

a) Anode (O): 2 Cl- Cl2 (g) + 2 e

-

Cathode (R): Ca2+

+ 2e- Ca(s)

b) Anode (O): 2 I- I2 (g) + 2 e

-

Cathode (R): Cu2+

+ 2e- Cu(s)

6. How many coulombs of charge must pass through a cell in order to deposit 9.45 g of zinc from a solution

of zinc nitrate?

Since we are only considering zinc ion converting to solid, we can ignore the spectator nitrate ion:

Zn2+

+ 2 e- Zn (s)

Use stoich to find the number of moles of electrons:

(9.45 g Zn) x 1 mole Zn x _2 mole-_ = 0.291 mol e

-

65 g Zn 1 mole Zn

Use Faraday’s constant to find coulombs:

(0.291 mol e-) x 96500 C = 28100 C

1 mol e-

7. What happens in an oxidation reaction in terms of electrons?

Oxidation reaction has an atom losing electrons to form an ion.

8. What happens in a reduction reaction in terms of electrons?

Reduction reaction has an ion gaining electrons to form an atom.

9. Assign oxidation numbers to each atom in the following compounds.

+1 +5 -2 +1 +5 -2

a) H3SO4 b. HNO3

10. Which reactant in the following reaction is oxidized and which is the oxidizing agent?

+2 +2 +4 0

CO(g) + PbO(s) → CO2(g) + Pb(s)

Remember name the atom for O/R and the compound as the agents:

O: C

R: Pb

OA: PbO

RA: CO

11. Balance the following equation using the oxidation number method.

Because the O/R is the same atom, you have to massage the coefficient on the product side.

1 e- gained x 5 atoms = 5

-1 +5 0

5 HBr + 1 HBrO3 → 3 Br2 + 3 H2O

5 e- gained x 1 atoms = 5

12. Balance the following equations in acid or base as indicated in brackets.

a. Cu + HNO3 → Cu2+

+ NO2 + H2O (acid)

b. N2O4 + Br- → NO2
