Empirical Formula
Reduced version of the molecular formula
KMT
-Gas particles are in constant random motion
-Negligible (very small) particle volume
-No intermolecular forces (no attractive or repulsive forces on each other, except collisions)
-Perfectly elastic collisions
-Average kinetic energy in proportional to temperature
Intramolecular
forces that hold atoms together within a molecule
Intermolecular
forces that exist between molecules
Exothermic Reactions
Releases energy in form of heat
(acids + alkalis)
(water + calcium oxide)
(respiration)
(freezing)
(condensation)
(negative delta H)
energy of products is lower than energy of reactants
Endothermic Reactions
Absorbs energy in form of heat
(electrolysis)
(sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid)
(photosynthesis)
(melting)
(boiling)
(positive delta H)
energy of products is higher than energy of reactants
