| 1. |
Ice, unlike most substances, is denser than
water in the liquid phase. |
BECAUSE | In water, hydrogen
bonds can form between the positively charged H atom on one water
molecule and the slightly negatively charged O atom on a nearby
water molecule. |
|
|
| 2. |
Which
of the following gases would be the densest at standard temperature
and pressure? |
| (A) |
Helium |
| (B) |
Argon |
| (C) |
Carbon dioxide |
| (D) |
Xenon |
| (E) |
Nitrogen |
|
|
| 3. |
In the laboratory,
a sample of hydrogen is collected by water displacement. The sample
of hydrogen has a volume of 25 mL at 24.0ºC and a barometric pressure
for the day of 758 mmHg. What is the pressure of the dry gas at
this temperature? (The vapor pressure of water at 24.0ºC is 22.4
mmHg.) |
| (A) |
455 mmHg |
| (B) |
470 mmHg |
| (C) |
736 mmHg |
| (D) |
758 mmHg |

Calculate
the approximate amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature
of 50.0 grams of liquid water from 10.0ºC to 30.0ºC. (The specific
heat of water liquid is 4.18 J/gºC.) |
| (A) |
20 J |
| (B) |
80 J |
| (C) |
100 J |
| (D) |
200 J |

| 5. |
Using the sketch of the phase
diagram for water given above, determine which of the following statements
is incorrect: |
| (A) |
The triple point is point A.
This is the point at which all three phases are in equilibrium with
one another. |
| (B) |
The line AB is the line
representing the solid-liquid equilibrium line. Anywhere along this
line the substance could melt or freeze. |
| (C) |
The slope of line AB is
negative. This slope indicates that the solid is much denser than
the liquid. |
| (D) |
Line AD represents the phase
changes of sublimation and deposition. |
| (E) |
Line AC represents where
the substance would condense and vaporize. |

| 6. |
Most ionic solids have high melting points. |
BECAUSE | Ionic solids are
made up of positive and negative ions held together by electrostatic
attractions. |
