Kazuki Yamamoto is a Japanese barista who constructs eyepopping works of 3D art using just foam and coffee.
Try Asking for One of These at Starbucks
Within the six years Yamamoto has been working at a coffee shop in Osaka, he's racked up more than 100,000 Twitter followers obsessed with his latte art.
Sometimes One Cup Is Not Enough
Some of his creations even climb out of their cups and reach out to others ( I'm afraid those fish are not long for this world…)

Standards of length were once represented by the distance between two marks on a solid metal bar. Copies of these standards were displayed in public places so that people could check the accuracy of the rules they were using.

Units and Concentrations

2.) Expressions of Concentration:
a.) Molarity (moles/L, or M):
(i) Most common unit of concentration
Gives number of moles of a substance in 1 liter of the given solvent.
Recall: 1 mole (mol) of a substance = 6.022 141 29 x 10 23 units (atoms, molecules, ions, etc).
Molecular weight (MW): the mass of a substance that contains 1 mole.
Example:
Find the concentration in Molarity (M) of 12.00g of benzene (C 6H6) dissolved up to a total volume of 250.00 ml in hexane.
MW benzene = 6 * (12.011) + 6 * (1.008) = 78.114 g/mol

2.) Expressions of Concentration:
b.) Formality (F):
(i) Concentrations expressed in M describe the actual concentration of a given chemical species in solution.
(ii)
Some chemicals when placed in solution will dissociate or converted to multiple forms
Example:
Acetic Acid:
(iii)
(iv)
Not convenient to refer to the concentrations of each individual form.
Instead, concentration of total substance originally added to the solution is used.
Formal concentration or Formality given in (mol/L)
Note: For compounds with a single form in solution, M = F

2.) Expressions of Concentration:
c.) Percent Composition:
(i) Weight Percent (wt/wt or w/w): Concentration expressed in terms of mass of substance versus the total mass of the sample.
Weight percent
(ii)
Volume Percent (vol/vol or v/v): Concentration expressed in terms of volume of substance versus the total volume of the sample.
Volume percent
(iii)
mass of subs tan ce x ( 100 ) mass of total solution or total sample
volume of subs tan ce x( 100 ) volume of total solution or total sample
Weight-Volume Percent (wt/vol or w/v): Concentration expressed in terms of mass of substance versus the total volume of the sample.
weight volume percent
mass of subs tan ce x ( 100 ) volume of total solution or total sample
Units and Concentrations
Units of Measurement
2.) Expressions of Concentration:
d.) Percent Composition:
(iv) Instead of expressing concentrations as a percentage, express in terms of: parts per thousand (ppt) – x103
parts per million (ppm) – x106
parts per billion (ppb) – x109
If a DILUTE solution has a concentration of 1 ppm, it would be approximately 1 mg/L or 1 µg/mL (valid if dmix= 1.0 g/mL)
3.) Solution Preparation:
a.) Dilution of a Solution:
McVc = MdVd
where:
Mc = Molarity of substance in the concentrated solution
Vc = volume of concentrated solution used
Serial dilution is the stepwise dilution of a substance in solution. Usually the dilution factor at each step is constant, resulting in a geometric progression of the concentration in a logarithmic fashion.
Serial dilutions are used to accurately create highly diluted solutions as well as solutions for experiments resulting in concentration curves with a logarithmic scale.
Chemical Equilibrium
Introduction
1.)
Equilibria govern diverse phenomena
2.)
Protein folding, acid rain action on minerals to aqueous reactions
Chemical equilibrium applies to reactions that can occur in both directions:
reactants are constantly forming products and vice-versa
At the beginning of the reaction, the rate that the reactants are changing into the products is higher than the rate that the products are changing into the reactants.
When the net change of the products and reactants is zero the reaction has reached equilibrium.
First, system reaches equilibrium
Then, system continually exchanges products and reactants, while maintaining equilibrium distribution.
Reactants
Product
At equilibrium the amount of reactants and products are constant, but not necessarily equal
Chemical Equilibrium
Equilibrium Constant
1.) The relative concentration of products and reactants at equilibrium is a constant. 2.) Equilibrium constant (K):
For a general chemical reaction
c
Equilibrium constant:
K
d
[C ] [ D]
[ A]a [ B ]b
Where:
- small superscript letters are the stoichiometry coefficients
- [A] concentration chemical species A relative to standard state
Chemical Equilibrium
Equilibrium Constant
2.) Equilibrium constant (K):
A reaction is favored when K > 1
K has no units, dimensionless
- Concentration of solutes should be expressed as moles per liter (M).
- Concentrations of gases should be expressed in bars. express gas as Pgas, emphasize pressure instead of concentration
► 1 bar = 105 Pa; 1 atm = 1.01325 bar
►
- Concentrations of pure solids, pure liquids and solvents are omitted
► are unity
► standard
state is the pure liquid or solid
3.) Manipulating Equilibrium Constants
Consider the following reaction:
[ H ][ A ]
K1
[ HA]
Reversing the reaction results in a reciprocal equilibrium reaction:
K '1
[ HA]
[ H ][ A ]
1 / K 1

3.) Manipulating Equilibrium Constants
If two reactions are added, the new K is the product of the two individual K values:
K1
K2
K3
[ H ][ A ]
K1
[ HA]
K2
[CH ]
[ H ][C ]

3.) Manipulating Equilibrium Constants
Example:
Given the reactions and equilibrium constants:
Kw= 1.0 x 10-14
KNH3= 1.8 x 10-5
Find the equilibrium constant for the reaction:
Solution:
K1=
Kw
K2=1/KNH3
K3=Kw*1/KNH3=5.6x10-10
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Châtelier’s Principal
1.) What Happens When a System at Equilibrium is Perturbed?
Change concentration, temperature, pressure or add other chemicals
Equilibrium is re-established
-
-
Reaction accommodates the change in products, reactants, temperature, pressure, etc.
Rates of forward and reverse reactions re-equilibrate
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Châtelier’s Principal
1.) What Happens When a System at Equilibrium is Perturbed?
Le Châtelier’s Principal:
If a system in equilibrium is disturbed, the direction in which the system proceeds back to equilibrium is such that the disturbance is partially offset.
Consider this reaction:
At equilibrium:
Add excess CO(g):
To return to equilibrium
(balance), some (not all)
CO and H2 are converted to CH3OH
If all added CO was converted to CH3OH, then reaction would be unbalanced by the amount of product
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Châtelier’s Principal
2.) Example:
Consider this reaction:
K
[ Br - ][Cr2O 72- ][ H ]8
[ BrO3- ][Cr 3 ]2
1 10 11 at 25 o C
At one equilibrium state:
[H ] 5.0 M [Cr2O 72- ] 0.10 M [Cr 3 ] 0.0030 M
[Br ] 1.0 M [BrO3- ] 0.043 M
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Châtelier’s Principal
2.) Example:
What happens when:
[Cr2O 72- ] increased from 0.10 M to 0.20 M
According to Le Châtelier’s Principal, reaction should go back to left to off-set dichormate on right:
Use reaction quotient (Q), Same form of equilibrium equation, but not at equilibrium: Q
[ Br - ][Cr2O 72- ][ H ]8
[ BrO3- ][Cr 3 ]2
1.0 0.20 5.0 8
0.043 0.0030 2
2 10 11 K
Chemical Equilibrium
Le Châtelier’s Principal
2.) Example:
Because Q > K, the reaction must go to the left to decrease numerator and increase denominator.
Continues until Q = K:
1. If the reaction is at equilibrium and products are added (or reactants removed), the reaction goes to the left
2. If the reaction is at equilibrium and reactants are added ( or products removed), the reaction goes to the right

3.) Affect of Temperature on Equilibrium
1. Equilibrium constant of an endothermic reaction (Ho = +) increases if the temperature is raised.
H = +
2. Equilibrium constant of an exothermic reaction (Ho = -)decreases if the temperature is raised.
H = -

4.)
Thermodynamics vs. Kinetics
Thermodynamics predicts if a reaction will occur
-
determines the state at equilibrium
Thermodynamics does not determine the rate of a reaction
-
Will the reaction occur instantly, in minutes, hours, days or years?
G = spontaneous

Graphite
While reaction is spontaneous, takes millions of years to occur
