CHEMISTRY- ENERGY CHANGES IN INDUSTRY Flashcards
What happens in exothermic reactions
Energy is released from reactants to surroundings
Temp of surroundings increases
What is the symbol for enthalpy change
Delta H
What happens in endothermic reactions
Energy takes from surroundings to reactions
Temp of surroundings decreases
Name diatomic elements
O2
H2
I2
Br2
Cl2
F2
N2
What is the standard enthalpy of combustion
Enthalpy change when 1 mole of a substance and it’s standard state burns completely in oxygen under standard conditions of 298k and one bar pressure.
Give an example of standard enthalpy of formation
H2 + 1/2 O —> H2O
What is the standard formation of water
L
What is the standard enthalpy of formation in their standard states
Zero
Why is the enthalpy of formation of Na zero
Na is an element in its standard state
State why the enthalpy of formation of liquid Na is not zero
Liquid is not sodium’s standard state
What is the standard enthalpy of formation
Enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is formed from its element under standard conditions of 298k and one bar pressure
What do standard enthalpies of combustion have
Almost always have negative values
Is burning a substance in oxygen exothermic or endothermic
Exothermic
What happens to substance that cannot be combusted
They have zero enthalpy of combustion
What types of substances cannot be combusted
Water
Carbon dioxide
And other oxides
Why may the enthalpy of combustion of a compound be difficult to measure
Incomplete combustion may occur
