Q

Standard Enthalpy Change of Reaction, ΔHr⦵

Definition

A

Energy change in a chemical reaction when the molar quantities of reactants stated in the chemical equation reacts under standard conditions of 1 Bar & 298K.

Notes:
1. ΔHr⦵ can be +ve/ -ve.
2. ΔHr⦵ is OFTEN used to predict stability of compounds.
3. The more -ve ΔHr⦵ is, the more STABLE the compound is aka the compound is less likely to decompose into its constituent elements.

Q

Hess’ Law

Definition

A

The enthalpy change of a reaction is determined by the initial and final states of the system and is independent of the pathways taken.

OR

The enthalpy change of a chemcial reaction is the same regardless of whether the reaction takes place in one step or several steps, provided the initial and final states of the reactants and products are the same.
