1.6 Flashcards
reaction feasibility for reversible reactions
equilibrium will lie to the left
reaction feasibility for non-reversible reactions
equilibrium will lie to the right
standard enthalpy of formation
25 degrees c or 298 K (room temp), 1 atm pressure. energy change when 1 mole of a substance is formed from its elements in their standard states and at above conditions
S
entropy. the disorder in a substance. solid is lower. goes up after fusion to liquid, then vaporisation to a gas
3rd law of thermodynamics
the entropy of a crystal at 0K is zero. this provides a reference against which entropies can be measured
randomness of a mixture and if dissolved
more randomness, more S
2nd law of thermodynamics
a chemical reaction will be feasible if there is an overall increase in entropy of the system and its surroundings
Gibb’s
amount of energy available to do with stuff. G– means reactions is feasible. delta H is opposite of this
