Enthalpy And Entropy Flashcards
Define lattice enthalpy
Enthalpy change when 1 mol of an ionic compound is formed from its gaseous ions under standard conditions
What is lattice enthalpy
The energy needed to form ionic bonds
Is lattice enthalpy endothermic or exothermic
Exothermic because bonds are formed
Define the standard enthalpy change of formation
Enthalpy change when 1 mol of a compound is formed from its constituent elements under standard conditions
Define standard enthalpy change of atomisation
Enthalpy change when 1 mol of gaseous atoms form from its constituent elements under standard conditions
Is the enthalpy change of atomisation endothermic or exothermic
Endothermic because bonds are broken
Define first ionisation energy
Enthalpy change when 1 electron is removed form each atom in one mol of gaseous atoms to form 1 mol of gaseous 1+ ions
Are first ionisation energies exothermic or endothermic
Endo because energy needed to overcome attraction of electron to nucleus
Define standard electron affinity
Enthalpy change when an electron is added to each atom in 1 mol of gaseous atoms to form 1 mol of gaseous 1- ions
Are standard electron affinities endothermic or exothermic
Exothermic
Energy released when electron is attracted to the nucleus
Are successive electron affinities endothermic or exothermic
Always endothermic
Energy needed to overcome repulsive force os negetive ion
How do you indirectly fing the lattice enthalpy
Using born haber cycles
Define the enthalpy change of solution
Enthalpy change when 1 mol of solute dissolves in solvent
Water overcomes ionic bonds
Define the enthalpy change of hydration
Enthalpy change when 1 mol of gaseous atoms are dissolved to form 1 mol of aqueous ions
What stages does dissolving involve
Breaking of ionic bonds to form gaseous ions
Dissolving of gaseous ions to produce aqueous ions
