Q

Factors affecting the magnitude and sign of ΔH

A
  1. Amount of substances
    when multiplying n to both sides of the equation , ΔH must be multiplied by n as well
  2. Physical states of reactants and products

3.ΔH of forward and backward reactions
the magnitude of ΔH is the same for forward and backward reactions however
if forward reaction is ΔH -ve, backward reaction will be ΔH +ve
if forward reaction is ΔH +ve backward reaction will be ΔH -ve

Q

Bond Energy

A

The energy absorbed when one mole of covalent bonds between two atoms in gaseous molecules is broken to form gaseous atoms

18
Q

The accuracy of BE data for diatomic molecules vs polyatomic molecules

A

BE data for diatomic molecules is accurately presented in data booklet however BE data for polyatomic molecules is inaccurate as they are an average. Same type of covalent bonds in different polyatomic molecules may have different bond energy values due to different types of chemical environments.

19
Q

Chemical environment affected by

A
  1. Presence of electron withdrawing or donating group
  2. Type of hybridisation
  3. Ring strain in cyclic compounds
  4. Intermediate bond order due to resonance
20
Q

Ionisation energy

A

1st: The energy absorbed in removing one mole of most loosely held electron from one mole gaseous cation to form one mole of singly positively charged gaseous cation
2nd: The energy absorbed in removing one mole of most loosely held electron from one mole of singly charged gaseous cation to form one mole of doubly charged positively cation

21
Q

Electron Affinity

A

1st: The energy change when one mole of gaseous atoms gain one mole of electrons to form one mole singly negatively charged anion
2nd: The energy change when one mole of singly charged negatively gaseous anions gain one mole of electrons to form one mole of doubly charged negatively anions

22
Q

Lattice energy

A

The energy released when one mole of ionic solid is formed from its gaseous constituent ions

23
Q

Factors affecting magnitude of lattice energy

A

The greater the charge on the cation and the anion the greater the magnitude. More exothermic
The greater the ionic radii of cation and anion the lesser the magnitude. Less exothermic.

24
Q

Why weak acids have less exothermic neutralisation reactions compared to strong acids?

A

Part of the energy released from the neutralisation is used to provide energy for complete disassociation of the acid

25
Q

Direct method of measuring ΔH

A

Calorimetry
measurement of ΔT to obtain Heat change (q)
ΔT for exothermic: Tmax-Ti
ΔT for endothermic: Tmin- Ti
ΔHr= -mcΔT/n of limiting reagent x coefficient of limiting reagent

final energy of surrounding - initial energy of surrounding = -energy of products + energy of reactants

26
Q

Assumptions made during calorimetric experiments

A
  1. There is negligible heat loss to surroundings
  2. The density of solution is the same as that of water 1.00g/cm3
  3. The heat capacity of the solution is the same as that of water 4.18J/gK
27
Q

Combustion of fuel using calorimetry

A

1.Spirit burner containing fuel
2. Known volume of water in calorimeter
Mass of fuel used in combustion measured by weighing mass of spirit burner before and after experiment Wi-We

28
Q

Limitations of using calorimetry and why it results in less exothermic reaction when used in combustion. |ΔHc|∝|mcΔT/n of substance burnt |

A
  1. There is heat loss to the surroundings, to the calorimeter which are not accounted for. Hence not all heat is not absorbed by the water in the calorimeter
  2. There might have been incomplete combustion
  3. Calculating the difference in the mass of spirit burner and fuel initially and after is not accurate to measure the amount of fuel that has combusted as highly volatile fuels might have evaporated

HENCE, for 1 and 2 the ΔT will be lesser than actual and so will ΔHc

For 3, greater fuel will be recorded as burnt hence amount of fuel is greater, ΔHc recorded is smaller

29
Q

Bomb calorimeter

A

Finding ΔHc using heat capacity of the calorimeter

ΔHc= CΔT/n (C J/K- heat capacity of calorimeter amount of energy required raise the calorimeter by 1K)

30
Q

Features of bomb calorimeter

A
  1. Insulated calorimeter
    Reduce heat loss to the surroundings
  2. Temperature regulated water jacket
    Reduce heat loss to the surroundings by regulating temperature of the water in the calorimeter by ensuring there is no temperature gradient between water in calorimeter and jacket so no heat transfer.
  3. Oxygen supplied at high pressure in the steel bomb calorimeter
    Ensures complete combustion
  4. The formula takes into account the heat lost to /absorbed by the calorimeter by measuring the heat capacity of the calorimeter CΔT
31

ΔH1= ΔH2+ ΔH3 at standard state

32

A
  1. Formation
  2. Atomisation of cation b4 anion
  3. Ionisation of cation b4 anion
  4. L.E.
36
Q

Comparison between theoretical and experimental LE values

A

The theoretical value of LE deviates from the experimental value of LE as it is calculated using a model where ions are spherical and their electron clouds evenly distributed. However that is not true in a real ionic compound

The percentage difference between theoretical LE and experimental LE can be used to determine how much theoretical deviates from experimental

37
Q

Extent of deviation of theoretical from experimental

A
  1. cations with greater polarising power as they distort the electron cloud of the anion greater
    eg Sodium halides vs Silver halides
    Silver has a greater polarising power as it is a d block element , its nuclei is poorly shielded by d electron. Hence for same halide, Ag distorts the electron cloud of the halides greater than Na
  2. Polarisability of anion (greater, more the deviation)
38
Q

Dissolution of ionic compound

S-LOTH

A

ΔHsol= -L.E. + ΣΔHhyd ions

When ΔHsol of an ionic compound is negative the compound is soluble in water.
When ΔHsol of an ionic compound is positive it may or may not be soluble. Its solubility will be determined from the compounds’ ΔG (Gibbs free energy)

Greater the ΔHsol the more exothermic the reaction and hence more soluble the compound

39
Q

q=mc Δt is +ve when rxn is exothermic

q=mcΔt is - ve when rxn is endothermic

A
40
Q

Factors affecting magnitude of ΔHhyd

A

1.strength of ion dipole interactions
Stronger- greater the magnitude- more exothermic the ΔHhyd
Strength of ion dipole affected by charge to size ratio (charge of ion and ionic radius)
