What is the correct definition for: Electronegativity?
The ability to attract the bonding electrons in a covalent bond

What is the correct definition for: Standard enthalpy of combustion?
The enthalpy change when 1 mole of a compound is completely burned in oxygen under standard conditions
6 of 10
What is the correct definition for: Hess' law?
The total enthalpy change of a reaction is independant of the route taken
7 of 10
What is the correct definition for: A Catalyst?

8 of 10
What is the correct definition for: Le Chatelier's Principle?
If there is a change in concerntration, pressure or temperature the equilibrium will move to help counteract the change
9 of 10
