Q

What is enthalpy

A

Enthalpy is the amount of energy or heat content of a substance. The energy is stored in chemical bonds. It incudes kinetic and potential energy and is not measured directly but changers are measured (J)

Q

What is standard enthalpy
of formation?

A

The standard enthalpy of formation of a substance is the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of the substance is formed from its elements in their standard states under standard conditions of 298 K (25 °C) and 1.00 ×10^5 Pa

17
Q

∆H reaction

A

∆H reaction =∑∆H⊖f (products) – ∑∆H⊖f (reactants

18
Q

What is average bond enthalpy?

A

The average bond enthalpy is the energy needed to break one mole of bonds in gaseous molecules under standard conditions averaged over similar compounds.

19
Q

What is ionization energy?

A

The ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms.

20
Q

What is electron affinity?

A

Electron affinity is the enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous electrons is added to one mole of gaseous atoms

21
Q

What is lattice enthalpy?

A

The lattice enthalpy is the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a solid ionic compound is separated into gaseous ions under standard conditions.

22
Q

What is enthalpy change
of atomization ?

A

The enthalpy change of atomization is the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of gaseous atoms is formed from the element in its standard state

23
Q

Heat capacity

A

The heat capacity (C) is defined as the heat needed to increase the Temperature of an object by 1 K

24
Q

Specific heat capacity

A

The specific heat capacity (c) is defined as the heat needed to increase the temperature of unit mass of material by 1 K

25
Q

How much heat is released when 10.0 g of copper with a specifc heat capacity of
0.385 J g–1 °C–1 is cooled from 85.0 °C to 25.0 °C

A

heat change = m × c × ∆T
= 10.0 g × 0.385 J g–1 °C–1 × –60.0 °C (the value is negative as
the Cu has lost heat)
= –231 (J)

26
Q

Why is bond breaking Endothermic?

A

A covalent bond is due to the electrostatic attraction between the shared pair of electrons and the positive nuclei of the bonded atoms. Energy is needed to
separate the atoms in a bond.

27
Q

What is Enthalpy of Solution

A

The enthalpy change when one mole of a solute is dissolved in a solvent to infinite dilution under standard conditions

∆Solution = ∆Lattice + ∆Hydration

What is Enthalpy change of hydration?

A

The Enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of gaseous ions is dissolved to form an infinitely dilute solution of one mole of aquel ions under standard conditions
