CH 6 VOCAB Flashcards
Exothermic
Energy goes from system to to the surroundings (heat given off)
Endothermic
Energy required, going from surroundings to system (heat taken in, colder)
Surroundings
Everything else
System
Things causing change in energy
Enthalpy Change
Sum of all energy content
Enthalpy profile diagrams
Diagram that shows enthalpy changes of a substance
Standard conditions
1 atm, 1 M concentrated solutions, pure substances
conditions that must be present to compare enthalpy changes
Standard enthalpy change
enthalpy change under standard conditions (100kpa, 298k)
SEC of reaction
enthalpy change when reactants react to make products under standard conditions and standard states
SEC of formation
enthalpy change when one mol of compound is formed from its components under standard conditions, standard states
SEC of combustion
enthalpy change when one mol of substance is burnt in excess oxygen under standard conditions, standard states
SEC of neutralization
enthalpy change when one mol of water is formed by reaction of acid and alkali under standard conditions
SEC of solution
enthalpy change when one mole of solute is dissolved in a solvent to form infinitely dilute solution under standard conditions
SEC of atomization
enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms form from its elements under standard conditions
SEC of an anhydrous salt
enthalpy change when one mole of hydrated salt is formed from one mol of anhydrous salt under standard conditions
Hess’s Law
total enthalpy change of a reaction is independent of how a reaction takes place
Bond energy
energy needed to break 1 mole of a particular bond in 1 mol of gaseous molecules
Average bond energy
general bond energy value used for a bond when the exact bond energy is not required. used because strength btwn to particular types of atoms are slightly different in different compounds
Lattice energy
nrg needed to form an ionic compound from gaseous ions at standard conditions
enthalpy change of atomization
nrg used when 1 mol of gaseous atoms are formed from its element under stp
electron affinity
enthalpy change when 1 mol of electrons is added to 1 mol of gaseous atoms to form 1 mol of gaseous -1 ions under stp
second electron affinity
enthalpy change when 1 mol of electrons are added to 1 mole gaseous 1- ions to form 1 mol gaseous -2 ions under stp
born haber cycle
enthalpy cycle used to calculate lattice nrg
ion polarization
when a small highly charged cation distorts the electron field of its opposing anion (charge density affected)
polarizing power
strength/ability of a cation to distort an anion
enthalpy change of solution
nrg released or absorbed when 1 mol of ionic solid dissolves in excess water to form a dilute solution
enthalpy change of hydration
nrg change when 1 mol of specific gaseous ion dissolves in sufficient water to form a very dilute sltn
