Unit 2 - AQA Chemistry in Action - Definitions

?
The minimum amount of kinetic energy needed for successful collisions and for a reaction to occur
Activation Energy
1 of 14
Provides an alternative pathway with a lower activation energy and remain chemically unaltered
Catalyst
2 of 14
The enthalpy change when a reaction occurs in the molar quantities shown in the chemical equation, under standard conditions with all reactants and products in their standard states
Standard enthalpy of reaction
3 of 14
Compounds with the same structural formula with atoms arranged differently in space
Sterioisomerism
4 of 14
The enthalpy change at constant pressure in a reaction is independent of the route taken
Hess's law
5 of 14
If theres a change in concentration, pressure or temperature the equilibrium will move to oppose the change
