Chapter 22 Flashcards
What is lattice enthalpy?
A measure of the ionic bonding strength in a giant ionic lattice. It is the enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic compound is formed from its gaseous ions understand standard conditions.
Is lattice enthalpy endothermic or exothermic?
Exothermic as it involves bond formation (it will always be -ve)
What is the first route of finding a lattice enthalpy using a Born Haber Cycle?
Formation of gaseous atoms- changing elements from their standard states into gaseous atoms
Formation of gaseous ions - Changing gaseous atoms into +ve and -ve gaseous ions (endothermic)
Lattice Formation - changing gaseous ions into their solid ionic lattice (lattice enthalpy and exothermic)
What is the second route of finding a lattice enthalpy using a Born Haber Cycle?
Convert elements in their standard states directly into ionic lattice with only one enthalpy change (enthalpy change of formation which is exothermic)
What is standard enthalpy change of formation?
The enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements under standard conditions with all reactants and products in their standard states.
What is standard enthalpy change of atomisation?
The enthalpy change for the formation of one mole of gaseous atoms from the element in its standard state under standard conditions.
What is the first ionisation energy?
The enthalpy change required to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions.
ENDOTHERMIC- Energy is needed to overcome the attraction between the negative electron and a positive nucleus.
What is the first electron affinity?
The enthalpy change which occurs when one electron is added each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1- ions.
EXOTHERMIC- as the electron is attracted to the nucleus.
What does electron affinity measure?
The energy to gain electrons
What does ionisation energy measure?
The energy to lose electrons
Describe the dissolving process?
It’s when water molecules can break giant ionic lattice structures and overcome strong electrostatic attraction between positively charged ions.
What is enthalpy change of solution?
Overall energy change associated with the dissolving process.
What is the standard enthalpy change of solution?
It is the enthalpy change which takes place when one mole of a solute dissolves in a solvent. If the solvent is water the ions from the ionic lattice are surrounded by water molecules
Is enthalpy change of solution exothermic or endothermic?
It can be either it just depends on the lattice enthalpy and enthalpy change of hydration.
What are the ions like in a solid lattice?
The positive and negative ions are attracted together in a giant ionic lattice.
What are the ions like when the compound is an aqueous solution?
The positive and negative ions are separate but a surrounded by water molecules.
How do you calculate energy change?
q= m x c x change in temperature
In sodium chloride what is the delta minus and plus atoms attracted to?
The Delta minus hydrogen atom is attracted to the positive sodium. That out of plus hydrogen atom is attracted to the negative chloride.
Describe the experiment which determines the enthalpy change of solution?
- Weigh an empty polystyrene cup and weigh out a sample of KCl.
- Add 25 cm³ of water to the cup and measure the temperature of the water.
- Add KCl into the cup star and record the maximum temperature.
- Weigh the cup and the final solution.
How do you calculate enthalpy change of solution?
q (kJ)/ n
What are the two processes which take place when a solid ionic compound dissolves in water?
- The ionic lattice breaks up (energy is required to overcome the electrostatic attraction).
- Water molecules attract and surround the ions (energy released).
What are the two types of energy changes involved involved in the enthalpy change of solution?
The lattice enthalpy and the standard enthalpy change of hydration.
What is lattice enthalpy?
Enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic compound is formed from gaseous ions when under SC
ALWAYS EXOTHERMIC
What is standard enthalpy change of solution?
Enthalpy change when one mole of aqueous ions is formed from one mole of gaseous ions under SC
ALWAYS EXOTHERMIC
