Q

What are the 3 formulas to calculate ΔHr?

A

BE:
ΔHr = BE (rxt) - BE (pdt)

ΔHc:
ΔHr = ΔHc (rxt) - ΔHc (pdt)

ΔHf:
ΔHr = ΔHf (pdt) - ΔHf (rxt)

Q

How to calculate ΔHr using experimental results?

A

q (in J) = mcΔT
ΔHr = ± q/n

+ for endo, - for exo
for ΔH neut: n = moles of water formed
for ΔHc: n= moles of species combusted

Q

what are the factors affecting entropy?

A

1) change in temp
- higher temp, more kinetic energy, more ways of distributing energy)

2) change in phase
- gas > liquid > solid

3) change in no. of particles (esp for gases)
- when no. of particles increase, more particles moving randomly, more disorderly

4) mixing of particles
- mixing of gases: more ways for particles to arrange themselves
- dissolving ionic compound in water: entropy of ions increase (breaking ionic lattice), entropy of water decreases (ion-dipole interactions)

Q

what is the formula of ΔG˚

A

ΔG˚ = ΔH˚ - TΔS˚

*** S is in J, convert to kJ

17
Q

when will ΔG=0?

A

change in physical state e.g. melting, boiling, freezing, sublimation

  • system is at equilibrium
18
Q

how does ∆H neut of a strong base weak acid/weak base strong basic differ from that of a strong base strong acid titration?

A

value of ∆H neut is less exothermic because heat is absorbed to dissociate the weak acid/base

19
Q

why would BE/enthalpy change calculated vary from the given values?

A
  • BE given in data booklet are average values
  • reactants and products may not be in gaseous state
  • reaction does not happen at standard conditions
