enthalpy Flashcards
ΔHr - standard enthalpy of reaction
enthalpy change that accompanies a reaction in the [molar quantities] shown in the [chemical reaction]
(standard conditions/state)
ΔHf - standard enthalpy of formation
change in enthalpy when [1 mol. of product] is formed from its [elements]
(standard conditions/state)
ΔHc - standard enthalpy of combustion
change in enthalpy when [1 mol. of a substance] is fully reacted with oxygen
(standard conditions/state)
ΔHneut - standard enthalpy of neutralisation
change in enthalpy when [1 mol. of water (l)] is formed from an acid and base reacting
(standard conditions/state)
is ΔH +/-
when energy is absorbed into the system, ΔH=+ (endothermic)
when energy is released from the system, ΔH= - (exothermic)
