  • entropy
    Measurement of disorder or randomness
  • Entropy
    Degree of disorder or uncertainty in a system
  • microstates
    Specific arrangement of particles
  • Rudolf clausius
    Discovered that Heat will never travel from colder to hotter body
  • Law of increased entropy
    2nd law of thermodynamics
  • law of increased entropy
    Any spontaneously occuring process will always lead to escalation in entropy (S)
  • Spontaneity
    Property of a process to occur without external input
  • Spontaneous process
    Proceeds without external input
  • increase
    Does entropy increase or decrease in spontaneous process?
  • Spontaneous process
    What type of process is melting?
  • Spontaneous process
    What type of process is sublimation
  • Spontaneous process
    What type of process is evaporation
  • Spontaneous process
    What type of process is dissolution
  • Non-spontaneous process
    process that requires energy to proceed
  • Decrease
    Does entropy increase or decrease in non-spontaneous process?
  • Ludwig boltzmann
    Derived the mathematical equation of between entropy and number of microstates
  • Temperature change, phase change, chemical reaction
    Factors that affect entropy:
    1. T………. c…..
    2. p…. c…..
    3. c……. r…….
  • Gibb’s free energy
    a state of function like entropy and enthalpy
  • G
    Gibb’s free energy is denoted by the symbol -
  • irreversible reactions - one way type of reaction
  • irreversible reactions - all reactants turned to products
  • irreversible reactions - reactants converted to products cannot be converted back to products
  • irreversible reactions - indicated by a single-headed arrow (--->)
  • irreversible reaction
    A ---> B (What type of reaction?)
  • reversible reactions
    two-way type of reaction
  • reversible reactions
    the forward reaction and backward rection occur simultaneously, reactants converted can be turned back to reactants again
  • reversible reactions
    indicated by a double-headed arrow (<--->)
  • reversible reactions
    does not necessarily consume all of reactants to become products
  • reversible reactions
    A<--->B
  • equilibrium
    the rate of the forward reaction matches the rate of the reverse reaction
  • equilibrium
    happens when no further change is happening in the reaction
  • Le Chatelier's principle
    when a system in equilibrium is subjected to stress, it will respond to attain a new equilibrium
  • concentration, pressure, temperature
    factors affecting reversible reactions
    1. c------------

  • acids
    compounds that release hydrogen ions
  • bases
    compounds that release hydroxide ions
  • Bronsted-Lowry theory
    addresses the shortcomings of arrhenius theory by having a more general definition of acids and bases
  • acid
    proton donor
  • base
    proton acceptor
  • conjugates
    pair of species in the reactants and products
  • Bronsted-Lowry theory
    involves proton transfer from a proton donor to a proton acceptor
