7
Q

How does the size of the ion affect the strength of the ionic bond

A
  • the smaller the ion the stronger the electrostatic attraction between ions which mean the smaller ions can pack together more closely and more energy is required to overcome the strong forces
  • so there is a higher boiling and melting point

Q

What 2 criteria do you need for a substance to dissolve

A

Q

Why do most ionic compounds dissolve in polar solvents like H2O

A
  • because the delta positive hydrogen is attracted to negative ions and delta negative oxygen is attracted to positive ions

Q

What do criteria do we need for new bonds to be formed

A
  • new bonds must be the same strength or greater than those broken or the substance is unlikely to dissolve
20
Q

What do you use to calculate then enthalpy of solution

A

1) lattice dissociation enthalpy
2) enthalpy of hydration

21
Q

Define the enthalpy of hydration

A
  • the enthalpy change when 1 mole of aqueous ions is made from 1 mole of gaseous ions
22
Q

What 2 thing affect the enthalpy change of hydration

A

1) the charge
2) the size of the ion

23
Q

How does charge affect the enthalpy change of hydration

A
  • ions with a higher charge attract water molecules more strongly as the electrostatic attraction is stronger
  • so more energy is released when the bond is made which means they have a more exothermic enthalpy of hydration
    *THE LARGER THE CHARGE THE GREATER THE ENTHALPY OF HYDRATION
24
Q

How does the size of the ion affect the enthalpy change of hydration

A
  • smaller ions have a higher charge density than larger ions
  • they can attract water molecules more strongly hence there is a more exothermic enthalpy of hydration
    *THE SMALLER THE ION THE GREATER THE ENTHALPY OF HYDRATION
25
Q

Define the term entropy(S)

A
  • the measure of disorder in a system
26
Q

What does higher disorder mean

A
  • the higher the level of entropy
27
Q

What 2 things affect entropy

A

1) the state of the compound
2) the number of particles

28
Q

What state has the lowest level of disorder and entropy and why

A
  • solids as they are arranged neatly into rows
29
Q

What state has the highest level of disorder and entropy and why

A
  • Gases as they are more disordered
30
Q

How does the number of particles affect entropy change

A
  • as if the reaction is in the same state but there are more moles are produced so entropy increases as there are more ways energy can be distributed
31
Q

Complete the sentence:
A reaction can be spontaneous(feasible) even if…

A
  • it is enthalpically unfavourable( endothermic)
32
Q

What do reactions tend towards

A
  • more disorder so there is an increase in entropy
33
Q

How is increasingly entropy favourable

A
  • energetically favourable
34
Q

Complete the sentence:
Some reactions that are enthalpically unfavourable can still…

A
  • spontaneously react if changes in entropy overcome changes in enthalpy
35
Q

How do you work out the entropy change

A

^S= S (products) - S (reactants)

36
Q

What are the units for entrop

A

JK^-1 mol^-1

37
Q

What are the standard conditions for entropy

A
  • 100kPa
  • 298K
38
Q

Is entropy positive or negative

A
  • Positive, so it is favourable
39
Q

What does Gibbs free energy tell us

A
  • if the reaction is feasible (going to happen) or not
40
Q

What is the symbol for Gibbs free energy

A

^G

41
Q

What is the reaction for Gibbs free energy

A

^G = ^H - T^S

^G= Gibbs free energy (Jmol^-1)
^H= enthalpy change (Jmol^-1)
T= temp (k)
S= entropy change (JK^-1mol^-1)

42
Q

What is the basic rule for Gibbs free energy

A
  • a reaction is feasible in theory ^G is NEGATIVE or ZERO
43
Q

How do you calculate ^H

A
  • q=mc^T
44
Q

What external variable may have an effect on reaction feasibility

A
  • temperature
45
Q

Draw a feasibility table for feasibility of reactions at different scenarios when ^H and ^S is changed

A
46
Q

How do we work out temperature in Gibbs free energy

A

T= ^H/^S
