Q

Why are successive electron affinities endothermic?

A

Q

How does entropy relate to physical states?

A

In order of size of entropy value:

Gases > liquids > solids

24
Q

Define standard entropy

A

The entropy of one mole of a substance, under standard conditions (always positive)

25
Q

How is an entropy change calculated for a reaction?

A

Products - Reactants

26
Q

What is feasibility?

A

Whether a reaction is able to happen and is energetically feasible (or spontaneous)

27
Q

What is the equation for free energy change?

A

ΔG = ΔH -TΔS

28
Q

What is the requirement for the free energy change such that a reaction is feasible?

A

ΔG < 0

A decrease in free energy

29
Q

Even though a reaction may have a negative value for ΔG, why might the reaction not take place at room temperature?

A

High activation energy resulting in a very slow rate

30
Q

Why does one ion have a higher lattice enthalpy than another?
(3 Marks)

A
  • Greater charge/charge density
  • As it is a smaller ion
  • Therefore a greater force of attraction and more energy required
31
Q

Why does one ion have a higher enthalpy of hydration than another?
(3 Marks)

A
  • Greater charge/charge density
  • As it is a smaller ion
  • Therefore a greater force of attraction to water
32
Q

How do you work out the enthalpy of solution?

A

Born-Haber Cycle:

Solution = Enthalpy of Hydration(s) - Lattice Enthalpy

33
Q

How do you write a redox equation in acidic conditions?

A 
Write the overall unbalanced equation
Write two half equations
Balance the total electrons
Combine
Balance oxygen and hydrogen this with H+ and H2O
34
Q

How do you write redox equations in alkaline conditions?

A

Balance and acidic conditions
Neutralise any H+ by adding OH- ions to both sides to produce water
Final balance check

35
Q

What is the main difference between redox titrations and acid base titrations?

A

Redox titrations are self indicating and no indicator is needed

36
Q

What occurs in MnO4-/Mn2+ titrations with Fe2+?

A

Aqueous manganate is dark purple but aqueous manganese is colourless manganate loses its colour as it enters the iron solution and the endpoint is when there is a permanent pink tinge as all the Fe 2+ has been used up and will not decolourise the manganate

37
Q

What occurs in the I2/S2O3 2- titrations?

A

Iodide is a reducing agent and is colourless however aqueous iodine has a brown colour in atria solutions and deep blue black with a starch indicator
By titrating it with Fitbit it can be used to assess the concentration of iodine

38
Q

What should you look for in titration equations?

A

Having to scale up for a different volume

39
Q

What does a salt bridge allowed for?

A

Ions to be transferred between half cells

40

41
Q

How do you measure the standard electrode potential of a half cell?

A

You can’t
It is only possible to measure the difference of E between to have cells
All half cells are measured against the standard hydrogen electrode
SHE is given E of exactly 0

42
Q

What does the standard hydrogen electrode look like?

A

Platinum electrode

46
Q

How do you calculate the E value of the overall cell?

A

E positive terminal - E negative terminal

47
Q

How can use E values to decide whether something can reduce another?

A

Add the 2E values
If the reaction is positive it will be spontaneous

Remember to look to reverse E values if the equation is reversed

48
Q

What is the limitations of using E values to predict if one substance can reduce another?

A

Predictions are only valid under standard conditions
High activation energy may mean reaction will take place very slowly
Standard electrode potential is only applied to aqueous equilibria
If the difference between E value is less than 0.4 V the reaction is unlikely to take place

49

What are the two types of commercial cells?

A

Rechargeable and non-rechargeable

50
Q

What is a car battery consist of?

A

Several individual cells that are rechargeable

51

What are two disadvantages of fuel cells?

A

Safety of storage of hydrogen
