Q

what is standard enthalpy change of formation?

A

the enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is formed from its elements in their standard states under standard conditions

17
Q

what is the enthalpy change of a reaction?

A

The enthalpy change for a reaction that is carried out in a series of steps is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps

18
Q

what is bond enthalpy?

A

enthalpy change when one mole of covalent bonds, in a gaseous molecule, is broken under standard conditions

19
Q

when are bond enthalpies used

A

reactions occurring in the gaseous states

20
Q

what is average bond enthalpy?

A

energy needed to break one mol of a bond in a gaseous molecule averaged over similar compounds
