enthalpy and entropy Flashcards
1
Q
entropy
A
measure of disorder/ dispersal of energy in a system
increases the more disordered a system is
2
Q
factors affecting entropy
A
increases as temperature increases
- particles gain energy and move faster and further apart (more disordered)
- gases have greatest entropy
3
Q
calculating entropy
A
find the difference between the standard entropies of the products and the reactants
4
Q
gibbs free energy
A
indicates reaction feasibility
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
H= change in enthalpy
T= temp in K
S=change in entropy
