standard enthalpy cahnge do formation
the enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed from its elements in standard states under standard conditions
standard enthalpy changeof neutralisation
the enthalpy change when one mole of hydrogen ions react with one mole of hydroxide ions to form one mole of water under standard conditions and in solutions containing 1 moldm-3
standard enthalpy change of combustion
the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a substance is burnt completely in oxygen under standard conditions in standard states
aromatic
contains one or more benzene rings
aliphatic
do no contain any benzene rings
homologous catalysis
reactants and catalyst are in the same physical state
heterogeneous catalysis
catalysts and reactants are in different physical states
heterogeneous process catalysis
reactants form bonds with atoms in surface of catalyst
reactant’s get adsorbed onto catalyst surface
bonds are weakened
bonds break
new bonds form
weakens bonds to catalyst dirac e
product is released
catalyst poison
substance stops catalyst functioning
electrophile
a positive ion or a molecule with a partial positive charge that will be attracted to a negatively charged region by accepting a lone pair of electrons to form a covalent bond
carbon monoxide removed
co+o2->2co2
hydrocarbons removed
produced co2 & water
nitrogen monoxide removed
2no+co->n2+2co2
catalytic converters
platinum rhodium on a porous support
NOx
4NO + 4NH3 + O2 -> 4N2 + 6H2O
