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. 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.

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






3. The heat required to change 1mole of solid completely to vapor.






4. 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






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






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






7. 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






8. Electronegativities _______ as you go down a group.






9. 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.






10. A hypothetical gas would follow Boyles law under all conditions and is called?






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

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






13. 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.

14. The vapor pressure increases with increasing _____.






15. The particular portion of the universe on which we wish to focus our attention. Everything else is called the surroundings.






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






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






18. The process of mixing different orbitals of the same atom to form a new set of equivalent orbitals.






19. The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature 1g of a substance by 1 degree celcius.






20. 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.

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






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






26. 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.

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






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






35. 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.






36. *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.
