Enthalpy

Cards (13)

  • Tell me about a exothermic reaction
    - heat is given out
    - temperature increases
    - delta h is negative
  • tell me about an endothermic reaction
    - heat is taken in
    - the temperature decreases
    - delta h is positive
  • draw an exothermic diagram * image will load
    image shown below
  • draw an endothermic diagram * image will load
    image shown below
  • what are the standard conditions to find the enthalpy change
    - 100 kpa
    - 298 k
    - 1 moldm3
  • what is the standard enthalpy change of formation
    when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements under standard conditions
  • what is enthalpy change of combustion
    When one mole of an element or compound reacts completely with oxygen under standard conditions
  • what is enthalpy change of neutralisation
    when one mole of water is formed from the reaction of an acid with a base under standard conditions
  • Why may values be different in a lab
    - heat loss to apparatus and surroundings
    - not carried out under standard conditions
    - incomplete combustion
  • how do you work out the average bond enthalpy
    bonds broken + bonds formed
  • draw a Hess cycle for combustion
    reactants ——> products
    oxides
    * arrows go down
  • draw a Hess cycle for formation
    reactants ——> products
    elements
    * arrows go up
  • for Hess cycle what is the formula
    reactants + products
