States of Matter and Solutions
Chapters 5, 10 and 11
AP Learning Objectives: The following AP topics will be covered in the textbook reading, class discussions and lab activities. Students' understanding and articulation of these topics will be tested by past AP questions on quizzes and unit test.
II. States of Matter (20% of AP exam)
A. Gases
1. Laws of ideal gases
a. Equation
of stat for an ideal gas
b. Partial
pressures
2. Kinetic Molecular Theory
a.
Interpretation of ideal gas laws on the basis of this theory
b. Avogadro's
hypothesis and the mole concept
c. Dependence
of kinetic energy of molecules on temperature
d. Deviations
from ideal gas laws
B. Liquids and Solids
1. Liquids and solids from the
kinetic-molecular viewpoint
2. Phase diagrams of
one-component systems
3. Changes of state,
including critical points and triple points
4. Structure of solids; lattice
energies
C. Solutions
1. Types of solutions and
factors affecting solubility
2. Methods of expressing
concentration
3. Raoult's law and colligative
properties (nonvolatile solutes); osmosis
4. Non-ideal behavior
(qualitative aspects)
