Energetics

?
Exothermic reaction
Heat energy is given out, temperature of the surroundings increases
1 of 17
Example of an exothermic recation
Combustion , neutralisation, respiration etc.
2 of 17
Endothermic reaction
Heat energy is taken in and the surrounding temperature increases
3 of 17
Example of an exothermic reaction
Photosynthesis
4 of 17
What is Calorimetry?
The amount of heat energy transferred in a reaction
5 of 17
What is the equation for energy transferred?
Energy transferred = mass of solution x specific heat capacity x temp. change
6 of 17
A reaction that takes in heat is called
Endothermic
7 of 17
Energy is usually given out in reactions as
Heat energy
8 of 17
A system that has nothing added or taken away is called
A closed system
9 of 17
Anhydrous means
Without water
10 of 17
Anhydrous copper sulphate is used to
Test for water
11 of 17
How do you work out molar enthalpy change?
Work out the energy transferred , work out how many moles there are, divide energy by mols
12 of 17
If the reaction is exothermic is the molar enthalpy change positive or negative?
Negative
13 of 17
If the reaction is endothermic is the molar enthalpy change positive or negative?
Positive
14 of 17
Is breaking bonds endo or exo thermic ?
Endothermic - breaking bonds would use up energy so energy from the outside would need to be taken in
15 of 17
Is making bonds endo or exo thermic? Why ?
Exothermic - energy is given out so the surrounding areas temp would increase
16 of 17
What can be used to work out the enthalpy change during a chemical reaction ?
The average bond energy
