AS Chemistry - Enthalpy

o

?
Define exothermic
Heat is given out to the surroundings (the reactants lose energy)
1 of 9
Define endothermic
Heat is taken in from the surroundings (the reactants gain energy)
2 of 9
Define activation energy
The minimum energy required to start a reaction by the breaking of bonds
3 of 9
What are the standard conditions?
pressure of 100kPa (1 atmosphere) temperature of 298K (25oC) concentration of 1.0moldm-3 (for reactions with aqueous solutions)
4 of 9
Define Enthalpy Change of Combustion
The enthalpy change that takes place when 1 mole of a substance reacts completely with oxygen (all reactants and products in their standard states and under standard conditions).
5 of 9
What ae the two equations to work out enthalpy change?
Q = m x c x ∆T and ∆H = q / n
6 of 9
Define Enthalpy Change of Neutralisation
The enthalpy change that accompanies the neutralisation of an aqueous acid by an aqueous base to form one mole of H2O(l), under standard conditions.
7 of 9
What is the equation to work out Delta Hr?
∆Hr = Σ(bond enthalpy of bonds broken) - Σ(bond enthalpy of bonds formed)
8 of 9
Define Enthalpy Change of Formation
The enthalpy change that takes place when 1 mole of a compound is formed from its constituent elements (all reactants and products in their standard states and under standard conditions).
