8 Energetics I Flashcards
Enthalpy change
Heat energy change measured at constant pressure.
Enthalpy change of reactions, ArH
When quantities of substances in standard stated react completely under standard conditions.
Enthalpy change of combustion, AcH
One mole of a substance is burned completely in oxygen under standard conditions.
Enthalpy change of neutralisation, AnH
Solutions of acid and alkali react together under standard conditions to produce one mole of salt.
Bond Enthalpy
The enthalpy change when one mole of a bond in gaseous state is broken.
Specific Heat Capacity
The energy required to raise 1g of substance by 1K without a change of state.
Energy transferred
= mass * specific heat capacity * temperature change
Q = mcT
