CLEP Chemistry 1

Subjects : clep, science, chemistry
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A principle stating that when a system at equilibrium is disturbed by the application of a stress (change in temperature - pressure - or concentration) it reacts to minimize the stress and attain a new equilibrium position.

2. For a solution in which a nonvolatile solute is dissolved in a solvent - the vapor pressure is due only to the vapor of the solvent above the solution. This vapor pressure is given by _______ law.

3. The change in enthalpy of an exothermic reaction is ________.






4. Any spontaneous change in a chemical reaction will decrease the amount of free energy toward _______ as the process proceeds towards equilibrium.






5. **Proceeding across a period from left to right - the ionization energy _______.






6. The general shape of any molecule can be predicted from the number of bonding and non-bonding electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom. nonbonded pairs of electrons (lone pairs) are more repellent than bonded pairs.






7. Electronegativities _______ as you go down a group.






8. This is due to the way positive charges of one molecule attract the negative charges of another molecule. Compounds of the solid state that are bound mainly by this type of attractive have soft crystals - are easily deformed - and vaporize easily.






9. In a closed system - when the rates of evaporation and condensation are equal - the system is in ____ ______.






10. A law that states that under conditions of constant temperature and pressure - equal volumes of different gases contain equal numbers of molecules.






11. Increase in the concentrations of reactants shifts the equilibrium to the ______ - thus increasing the amount of products formed.

12. _______ has very little effect on the solubility of liquids or solids in liquid solvents.






13. This process occurs when the system is thermally isolated so that no heat enters or leaves.






14. This process occurs when the system is maintained at the same temperature throughout an experiment.






15. The freezing point - boiling point - and vapor pressure of a solution differ from those of the pure solvent by amounts which are directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solute.






16. A pure crystal of elemental metal consists of roughly Avogrado's number of atoms held together by ________ bonds.






17. A catalyst lowers the ______ _____ _____ that must be overcome in order for the reaction to proceed. It merely speeds the approach to equilibrium but does not change Keq at all.

18. *The hypothetical ideal gas obeys exactly the mathematical statement of the ideal gas law. This statement is also called the _____ ___ ____ of an ideal gas because it relates the variables (P - V - n - T) that specify properties of the gas.






19. The average kinetic energy of all the molecules collectively is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas. The average kinetic energy of equal numbers of molecules of any gas is the same at the same temperature.






20. A chemical reaction where one substance is displacing another. ex: Fe + CuSo4 -> FeSo4 + Cu.






21. Gases are composed of tiny - invisible molecules that are widely separated from one another in otherwise empty space.






22. _____ bonds are present in molecules containing double or triple bonds.






23. If this law was strictly obeyed - gases would not condense when they are cooled. This means that gases behave in an ideal fashion only at relatively high temperatures and low pressures.






24. Metals have electronegativities less than ____






25. The law stating that in any spontaneous process there is an increase in the entropy of the universe.






26. The relatively weak attractive forces between molecules that are apparent only when the molecules approach one another closely (usually at low temperatures and high pressure).






27. An increase in temperature causes the position of equilibrium of an exothermic reaction to be shifted to the _____ - while that of and endothermic reactions is shifted to the _______.

28. A theory of the hydrogen atom stating that the electron can exist in only certain stable energy levels and that when the electronic state of the atom changes - it must absorb or emit exactly that amound of energy equal to the difference betweent he f






29. A process that occurs whent eh system is maintained at constant pressure.






30. The energy required to remove an electron from an isolated atom in its ground state.






31. A state function in which it is the heat content of a substance.






32. State ________ depend only on the present state of the substance and not on the path by which the present state was attained. Enthalpy - energy - Gibbs free energy - and entropy are examples.






33. In an endothermic process - energy is absorbed and ^E is _______.






34. The heat change during a process carried out at a constant pressure.






35. Rays made up of electrons in basic electron charges.






36. The pressure exerted by the gas molecules when they are in equilibrium with the liquid.






37. Real gases act in a less than ideal way - especially under conditions of increased pressure and/or decreased temperture. Real gas behavior approaches that of ideal gases as the gas pressure becomes very low. The ideal gas is thus considered a _____ _






38. In a closed system - when opposing changes are taking place at equal rates - the system is said to be in _____ _______.






39. A solution in which solid solute is in equilibrium with dissolved solute.






40. *The nature of the reactants and products affect chemical reactions because some elements and compounds have bonds that when broken/formed - react more rapidly with each other than others.






41. Reactions that do not occur spontaneously can be forced to take place by supplying energy with an external current.






42. When solids are heated at certain perssures - some solids vaporize directly without passing through the liquid phase.






43. The vapor pressure increases with increasing _____.






44. When a hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom - it will become partially _____-charged - and will be attracted to neighboring electron pairs. This creates a hydrogen bond. The more polar the molecule - the more effective the hydroge






45. Electronegativities ________ from left to right in a period.
