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. 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.






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






3. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases in mixture.






4. Because of the low intermolecular forces - the melting points are low and evaporation takes place so easily that it may occur at room temperature.






5. When the electron moves from the ground state to an excited state - it ______ energy.






6. The maximum work derived from any change will be obtained only if the process is carried out in a reversible manner. All real - spontaneous changes are therefore not reversible - and the work that can be derived from an irreversible change is alway l






7. When the rate of evaporation equals the rate of condensation - the system is in __________.






8. Increasing the pressure on a system at equilibrium will cause a shift in the position of equilibrium in the direction of the fewest number of ______ of gaseous reactants or products.

9. The molecules in a gas collide with one another - but the collisions are perfectly elastic (they result in no net loss of energy).






10. The normal boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure is 760mm Hg.






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






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






13. In titration - this point occurs when equal numbers of equivalents of acid and base have been reacted. The solution at this point is neutral because neither of the ions of the salt in solution undergoes hydrolysis.






14. *Each wave function corresponds to a certain electron energy and describes a region about the nucleus (orbital) where an electron having that energy may be found.






15. The most active nonmetals are found in what corner of the periodic table?






16. Decreasing the concentrations of reactants shifts the equilibrium to the ______ - thus decreasing the concentration of products formed.

17. *The surface area exposed affect chemical reactions because most reactions depend on the reactants coming into contact - increasing the rate of the reaction.






18. The action of salts of weak acids or bases with water to form acidic or basic solutions.






19. Rays made up of positive electrodes in basic electron charges.






20. The freezing point is always lowered by addition of solute.






21. When a system at equilibrium is disturbed by adding or removing one of hte substances - all the concentrations will change until a new equilibrium point is reached with the same value of Keq.

22. If an inert gas is introduced into a reaction vessel containing other gases at equilibrium - it will cause an increase in the ______ _____ within the container - but the increase will not affect the position of equilibrium.

23. 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.

24. *Molecules of ideal gases have no attraction for one another and have no intrinsic volume - they are ______ _____






25. A chemical reaction formed from the breakdown of a compound into its individual elements or compounds.






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






27. 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.






28. The _____ speed up the rate of a chemical reaction but do not change the equilibrium constant - it simply speeds up the rate of approach to equilibrium.






29. The temperature at which the pressure of vapor escaping from the liquid equals atmospheric pressure.






30. 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.






31. The change in enthalpy of an endothermic reaction is ________.






32. The process of determining the amount of a solution of known concentration that is required to react completely with a certain amount of a sample that is being analyzed.






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






34. Electronegativities _______ as you go down a group.






35. For most substances - when a hot concentrated solution is cooled - the excess solid ________. This is useful in purification of the solute.






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






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






38. A valence theory that permits the geometric arrangement of atoms - or groups of atoms - about some central atom to be determined solely by considering the repulsions between the electron pairs present in the valence shell of the central atom.






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






40. 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.

45. A law stating that the vapor pressure of a solution at a particular temperature is equal to teh mole fraction of the solvent in the liquid phase multiplied by the vapor pressure of the pure solvent at the same temperature.






46. 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 _____ _






47. Metals have electronegativities less than ____






48. In a _______ expansion of a gas - the opposing pressure is virtually equal to the pressure exerted by the gas. It is ______ because any slight increase in the external pressure will reverse the process and cause compression to occure.
