  • lattice enthalpy 

    The enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic compound is converted to gaseous ions.
  • enthalpy of atomisation
    The enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms is formed from the element in its standard state.
  • First electron affinity
    The enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms is converted into gaseous ions with a single negative charge.
  • standard enthalpy of formation
    the enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements under standard conditions
  • hess’s law
    the enthalpy change for a reaction is independent of the route taken, provided the initial and final conditions are the same
  • 1st ionisation energy
    the energy required to convert one mole of gaseous atoms into one mole of gaseous ions with a single positive charge
  • enthalpy of solution

    enthalpy change when one mole of a solute dissolves in water
  • enthalpy of hydration
    enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous ions is converted to one mole of aqueous ions
  • feasible
    a reaction for which 🔺G > 0
  • entropy
    a measure of disorder (randomness)
  • free energy change (🔺G)

    🔺G=🔺H-T🔺S
  • which way should arrows point
    towards the products
    (up for formation)
    (down for combustion)
  • what causes stronger ionic bonds
    smaller ion (more polarising)
    large charge difference
  • how do you convert BDE to eoAt
    divide by 2
    (Cl2->2Cl2 /2 = 1/2Cl -> Cl)
  • calculating lattice enthalpy
    F Latt = all that
    units and sign (KJmol-1)
  • calculating enthalpy of solution
    s = latt + hyd +hyd
  • for a reaction to be spontaneous/feasible DG must be
    negative (KJmol-1)
  • is a reaction feasible if DS is negative and DH is positive?
    no
    DG will be positive
  • is a reaction feasible if DS is positive and DH is negative?
    yes
    DG will be negative
  • enthalpy of solution diagram
    .
    A) solution
    B) lattice enthalpy
    C) hydration
    D) hydration
  • calculate minimum temperature where reaction is feasible
    T = DH/DS
