what happens if the products store more energy than the reactants
they must have taken in more energy from their surroundings, making it an Endothermic reaction
1 of 14
what happens if the products store less energy than the reactants
they must transfer excess energy to their surroundings, making it an Exothermic reaction
2 of 14
Examples of Exothermic reactions
Combustion(buring fuels), Neutralization(acid+alkalior metal), many oxidation reactions like sodium+water
3 of 14
Uses of Exothermic Reactions
reusable Hand warmers use Crystallization of a supersaturated solution, like sodium ethanoate with a catalyst. Self heating cans
4 of 14
Examples of Endothermic reactions
Thermal decomposition (CaCO3->CO2+CaO), Citric acid and Sodium hydrogencarbonate
5 of 14
Uses of Endothermic Reactions
Sport injury cool packs usually contain Ammonium nitrate+Water, Chill cans of drinks
6 of 14
What is Activation Energy
it is the minimum amount of energy needed befor colliding particles of reactants have enough energy to start a reaction
7 of 14
is Bond Breaking Endothemic
yes, Bond Breaking Absorbs energy. Bond Making Releases energy
8 of 14
What happens when chemicals react
first the bonds between atoms and ions are broken, then new chemical bonds are formed to make products
9 of 14
What directions do the arrows point in Exo/Endo reactions
EXOthermic reactions arrow points DOWN. ENDOthermic reactions arrow points UP
10 of 14
What is Bond energy
the energy needed to break the bonds between 2 atoms, measured in kJ/mol
11 of 14
How do you calculate energy changes
Calculate energy needed to break bonds in reactants, Calculate energy released from making bonds in products
12 of 14
The energy needed to Break and Make the bonds are The same, True or False
True
13 of 14
How do you work out overall energy changes
energy needed to break bonds - energy needed to make new bonds, if answer is - it is an Exothermic reaction
