Enthalpy of formation
the enthalpy change when ONE MOLE OF A COMPOUND is formed FROM ITS ELEMENTS under standard conditions with both the REACTANTS AND PRODUCTS in their STANDARD STATES
1 of 6
Enthalpy of combustion
the enthalpy change when ONE MOLE OF A SUBSTANCE is completely burnt in oxygen UNDER STANDARD CONDITIONS with both REACTANTS AND PRODUCTS in their STANDARD STATES
2 of 6
Hess' Law
an enthalpy change for a reaction is the same regardless of the route taken, provided the initial and final states are the same
3 of 6
Change in heat enthalpy =
sum energy of bonds broken - sum energy of bonds formed
4 of 6
Exothermic
minus energy, energy is released to the surroundings
5 of 6
Endothermic
positive energy, energy
