Enthalpy, entropy and free energy Flashcards
Increase ionic charge
- lattice enthalpy more exothermic
- more energy required to overcome electrostatic attraction
- higher melting point
- higher thermal stability
Decreased ionic radius
- lattice enthalpy becomes more exothermic
- more energy required to overcome electrostatic attraction
- higher melting point
4.higher thermal stability
polarisation
distortion of electron cloud in molecule/ion by nearby positive charge
Born-haber cycle
enthalpy change of formation= atomisation metal + ionisation energy metal + atomisation gas + electron affinity + lattice enthalpy
Enthalpy change of atomisation
m(s) -> m(g)
1/2x2(g) -> x(g)
enthalpy change when 1 mol of gaseous atoms is formed from the element in its standard state
Ionisation energy
m(g) -> m+(g) + e-
enthalpy change to remove 1 electron from each atom in 1 mol of gaseous atoms to form 1 mol of gaseous 1+ ions
Electron affinity
X(g) + e- -> X-(g)
The enthalpy change accompanying the gain of 1 mol of electrons by 1 mol of gaseous atoms
Enthalpy change of formation
M(s) + X2(g) -> MX2(s)
Enthalpy change when when 1 mol of a compound is formed from its constituent elements in their standard state
Lattice enthalpy
aM^b+(g) + bX^a-(g) -> MaXb(s)
enthalpy change when 1 mol of ionic lattice is formed from its constituent gaseous ions
298k and 10KPa
Enthalpy change of hydration
enthalpy change when 1 mol of gaseous ions is completely hydrated by water
X^a+(g) -> X^n+(aq)
Larger hydration enthalpy
- smaller ionic radius
- larger ionic charge
- increased electrostatic attraction to water molecules
Enthalpy change of solution
compound(s) -> X+(aq) + M-(aq)
enthalpy change when 1mol of ionic solid dissolves in water
Born-haber cycle hydration
enthalpy of hydration = lattice enthalpy + enthalpy of solution
Entropy
measure of dispersal energy in a system
ΔS
KJmol^-1s^-1
Increase in entropy
- solid becomes liquid
- liquid becomes gas
- temperature rises
- solid dissolves in liquid to form a solution
- products have more molecules in same state
