11.3 Flashcards
What is the 1st way that change in enthalpy change can be communicated?
By stating the molar enthalpy of a specific reactant in a reaction
What is the 2nd way that change in energy can be communicated?
By stating the molar enthalpy change for a balanced reaction equation
What is the 3rd way that change in energy can be communicated?
By including an energy value as a term in a balanced reaction equation
What is the 4th way that change in energy can be communicated?
By drawing a chemical energy potential diagram
What type of reaction is it if the molar enthalpy is less than 0?
Exothermic
What type of reaction is it if the molar enthalpy is greater than 0?
Endothermic
Where is the energy placed when a reaction has an enthalpy change is less than 0?
On the products side
Where is the energy placed when a reaction has an enthalpy change is greater than 0?
On reactants side
Which side has the stronger chemical potential energy when enthalpy change is less than 0?
Reactants have greater potential energy
Which side has the stronger chemical potential energy when enthalpy change is greater than 0?
Products have greater potential energy
