  • SPONTANEOUS PROCESS occur so as to decrease the energy of the system. This explains why a ball rolls down a hill and also explains why a large number of exothermic reactions are spontaneous.
  • Melting of ice is SPONTANEOUS.
  • Dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water is also spontaneous and endothermic.
  • Decomposition of Mercury III aside is an endothermic reaction
    that is nonspontaneous at room temperature and Spontaneous when temperature increases.
  • EXOTHERMICITY focus the spontaneity of a chemical reaction cannot be based solely on the basis of the energy changes in the system.
  • ENTROPY, measure of the randomness or disorder of a system.
  • The great the disorder of the system, the stronger the entropy
  • The more ordered the entropy, the lesser the entropy.
  • ENTROPY is the processes that lead to an increased in entropy of the system; MELTING, VAPORIZATION, DISSOLVING, HEALING.
  • A positive value of ΔS indicates that the process leads to an increase in entropy of the universe.
  • Entropy change (ΔS) = Entropy of products - Entropy of reactants
  • Entropy change of the surroundings (ΔSsurr) = -ΔH/T
  • HYDRATION is the process that leads to a decreased of entropy.
  • UNIT OF ENTROPY; in an isothermal process, the change in entropy is the change in heat divided by the absolute temptemperature.
  • Standard entropy values have been measured in J/k • mole
  • EXOTHERMIC, movement of the heat from the system to the surroundings.
  • ENDOTHERMIC, the system absorbs energy from the surroundings
  • The most stable Carbon is GRAPHITE
  • 1 atm = 760 mmHg and at 25° C
  • DEVICES USED FOR MEASURING PRESSURE: Water Barometer, Mercury Barometer, Aneroid Barometer.
  • Aneroid barometer does not use any liquid or gas as its measuring medium.
  • COMBUSTION PROCESS:
    CH4(g)+CH₄(g) +2O2(g)>CO2(g)+2O₂(g) -> CO₂(g) +2H2O(/)H°= 2H₂O(/) ∆H° =840kJ -840 kJ
  • ACID BASE REACTION:
    H^+ (aq) + OH^-(g) -> H₂O(\) ∆H° = -56.2 kJ
  • ∆H° subscript of F Graphite= 0
    • In state changes, entropy change is given by; ∆S =  S (subscript of f) - S (subscript of i)
  • THE SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS:
    The entropy of the universe increases in a spontaneous process and remains unchanged in a equilibrium process.
  • FOR A SPONTANEOUS PROCESS:
    Suniv=∆Sᵤₙᵢᵥ =Ssγs+ ∆Sₛᵧₛ +Ssrr>0∆Sₛᵣᵣ > 0
  • FOR A EQUILIBRIUM PROCESS:
    Suniv=∆Sᵤₙᵢᵥ =Ssγs+ ∆Sₛᵧₛ +Ssrr= ∆Sₛᵣᵣ=00
  • ENTHALPY; overall energy of the system
  • ENTHALPY is the sum of internal energy and the product of pressure and volume.
  • MATTER: occupies space and has mass
  • You cannot determine the internal energy of a substance.
  • Can't determine the Value of U (Internal energy)
  • EQUATION OF ENTHALPY:
    H=H=U+ U +PV PV 
  • Enthalpy
    Sum of internal energy and the product of pressure and volume
  • Mole
    Grams to weight or the numerically equal of the atomic
  • Exothermic
    Movement of the heat from the system to the surroundings
  • Open System
    The system wherein actually a free or exchange interaction of mass and energy
  • Closed system
    Free exchange between system and the surroundings but there's no exchange of "mass" only energy
  • Equilibrium process
    The balance of all things
