Q

How do you determine lattice enthalpies ?

A

Using the Born-Haber cycle

23
Q

When are successive electron affinities required ?

A

24
Q

Are second electron affinities exothermic or endothermic ?

A

They are endothermic

25
Q

Why are second electron affinities endothermic ?

A
  • A second electron is being gained by a negative ion, which repels the electron away
26
Q

Define standard enthalpy change of solution

The enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of a solute dissolves in a solvent.

27
Q

What mass should be used in enthalpy calculations ?

A

The mass of everything in the solution

28
Q

What processes take place when a solid ionic compound dissolves in water?

A

29
Q

What are the energy changes involved in these processes of a solid ionic compound dissolving in water?

A
  • Ionic lattice is broken up forming separate gaseous ions
  • Separate gaseous ions interact with polar water molecules to form hydrated aqueous ions
  • Called enthalpy change of hydration
30

A
  • Ionic charge increases
  • Attraction between ions increases
  • Lattice enthalpy becomes more negative
  • Melting point increases

A
  • Ionic radius increases
  • Attraction between ion and water molecules decreases
  • Hydration energy less negative
37
Q

Describe the effect of ionic charge on hydration enthalpy

  • Hydration energy becomes more negative
38
Q

Why is hydration enthalpy an inaccurate method of predicting solubility?

A

A

A measure of the dispersal of energy within the chemicals in a chemical system

40
Q

What are the unit for entropy ?

A

J/K/mol

41
Q

How does entropy relate to physical states?

A

In order of size : gases > liquids > solids, for entropy values

42
Q

How are entropy, the dispersal of energy and disorder related ?

A

The greater the entropy, the larger the dispersal of energy and the greater the disorder

43
Q

What is a system said to be if it is very random ?

A
  • Energy is spread out more
  • Entropy change is positive
44
Q

What is a system said to be if it is not very random ?

A
  • Energy is concentrated
  • Entropy change is negative
45
Q

When does entropy generally increase ?

A

What is entropy like when there is an increase in gaseous molecules in the reaction ?

A

It is positive

47
Q

What is entropy like when there is a decrease in gaseous molecules in the reaction ?

A

It is negative

48
Q

Define standard entropy

A
  • The entropy of one mole of a substance under standard conditions
  • It is always positive
49
Q

How is an entropy change calculated for a reaction?

A

Change in entropy is the sum of the entropies of the products minus the sum of the entropies of the reactants

50
Q

How is an entropy change calculated for a reaction?

A

Change in entropy is the sum of the entropies of the products minus the sum of the entropies of the reactants

51
Q

What is feasibility?

A

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

52
Q

What is the equation for free energy change?

A

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

53
Q

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

A
  • ΔG < 0
  • A decrease in free energy.
54

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.
