2.3.1 Enthalpy Changes

?
What happen in an exothermic reaction?
energy transferred from the system to the surroundings // products have less energy
1 of 11
What happens in an endothermic reaction?
energy transferred from the surroundings ti the system // products have more energy // requires input of heat energy
2 of 11
What are the standard conditions of enthalpy changes?
100kPa / 289K / 1moldm^-3 concentration
3 of 11
What is the enthalpy change of reaction?
enthalpy change when the number of moles of reactants as specified in the balanced equation react together
4 of 11
What is the standard enthalpy change of formation?
enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements under standard conditions
5 of 11
What is standard enthalpy change of combustion?
the enthalpy change that takes place when 1 mole of a substance reacts completely with oxygen under standard conditions
6 of 11
How do you calculate enthalpy change?
Q = McT in joules
7 of 11
What is mean bond enthalpy?
enthalpy change when 1 mole of bonds (gaseous covalent) are broken
8 of 11
How do you calculate bond enthalpy if all substances are gases?
sum of bond energies broken - sum of bond energies made
9 of 11
Why are bond enthalpies calculated with gases less accurate?
mean bond enthalpies are not exact
10 of 11
what is Hess's Law?
total enthalpy change at a constant pressure for a reaction is independent of the route by which the chemical change takes place
