Enthalpy definitions

?
Positive Enthalpy
The reaction takes in energy, it is endothermic
1 of 9
Negative enthalpy
The reaction gives out energy, it is exothermic
2 of 9
Standard enthalpy of formation
The enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed in its standard state from its elements in their standard states
3 of 9
Standard enthalpy of combustion
The enthalpy change when one mole of a substance undergoes complete combustion in its standard state
4 of 9
Standard enthalpy of atomisation
The enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms is formed from an element in its standard state
5 of 9
Bond (disassociation) enthalpy
The energy required to break one mole of gaseous bonds to form gaseous atoms
6 of 9
Lattice dissociation enthalpy
The enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic lattice dissociates into isolated gaseous ions
7 of 9
Lattice formation enthalpy
The enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic lattice is formed from its isolated gaseous ions
8 of 9
