Enthalpy Flashcards
enthalpy of formation
enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is formed form its constituent elements with all substances in their standard conditions
- exothermic (generally)
enthalpy of combustion
enthalpy change when one mole of a substance undergoes complete combustion in oxygen with all substances in standard states
- exothermic
enthalpy of neutralisation
enthalpy change when 1 mole of WATER is formed in a reaction between an acid and an alkali under standard conditions
- exothermic
ionisation enthalpy (first)
enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms loosed one election to from one more of gaseous 1+ ions
- endothermic
ionisation enthalpy (second)
enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous 1+ ions loosed one election to from one more of gaseous 2+ ions
- endothermic
electron affinity (first) exo/endo?
enthalpy change when each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms gains one electron to become 1- ions
- exothermic
electron affinity (second)
enthalpy change when each atom in one mole of gaseous 1- ions gains one electron to become 2- ions
- endothermic
enthalpy of atomisation
enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous atoms is produced from an element in its standard state
- endothermic
hydration enthalpy
enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous ions becomes hydrated (dissolves in water)
- exothermic
enthalpy of solution
enthalpy change when one mole of an ionic solid dissolves in an amount of water large enough so that all the dissolved ions are well separated and do not interact with each other (dissociated ions)
-varies
bond dissociation enthalpy
enthalpy change when one mole of covalent bonds is broken in the gaseous state
- endothermic
lattice enthalpy of formation
enthalpy change when one mole of a solid ionic compound is formed from its constituent ions in GAS state
- exothermic
lattice enthalpy of dissociation
enthalpy change when one mole of solid ionic compound is broken up into its constituent ions in their GAS state
- endothermic
enthalpy of vaporisation
energy change when one mole of a liquid is turned into a gas
- endothermic
enthalpy of fusion
energy change when one mole of a solid is turned into a liquid
- endothermic
average bond enthalpy
the average enthalpy change that takes place when breaking by homiletic fission 1 mol of a given type of bond in the molecules of a gaseous species
bond dissociation enthalpy
the enthalpy change when 1 mol of a given bond in the molecules of a gaseous species is broken by homiletic fission
overall enthalpy change (eq)
[sum of enthalpy of formation product] - [sum of enthalpy of formation of reactants]
Hess’ law
if a reaction takes place by 2 routes, and starting and finishing conditions are the same the total enthalpy change will be the same for each route
symbol for enthalpy
H
units of enthalpy
kJmol-1
value of ΔH when reaction is exothermic
negative
value of ΔH when reaction is endothermic
positive
enthalpy
energy stored within the bonds
