chemistry in society Flashcards
feedstock
a reactant from which other chemicals can be extracted or synthesised
raw materials
what feedstocks are derived from
atom economy
the mass of the product you want as a percentage of the mass of the reactants used in the reaction
percentage yield
the mass of the product actually made compared to the mass of the product it is theoretically possible to make.
what is molar volume
volume of one mole of gas
what do particles require for reaction to occur
correct collision geometry and activation energy
colour change for starch indicator
colourless- blue black
the products in endothermic reactions have…. energy than the reactants
more
the products in exothermic reactions have…. energy than the reactnats
less
exothermic reactions …… heat to surroundings
loses
endothermic reaction…… heat form surroundings
absorbs
what is temperature
measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a chemical.
problems with a copper cup alcohol burning set up
evaporation of alcohol
heat lost to surroundings
non uniform distribution of heat
incomplete combustion
molar volume equation
V = N x Mv
enthalpy of combustion equations
Eh=CMΔT
Eh= ΔH x N
