Exam 1 Flashcards
ΔGrxn?
ΔGrxn= nG(products) - nG(reactants) or ΔGrxn=ΔHrxn -TΔSrxn or ΔGrxn= -TΔSuniv
ΔHrxn?
ΔHrxn= nH(products) - nH(reactants)
ΔSrxn?
ΔSrxn= nS(products) - nS(reactants)
ΔSsys?
ΔSrxn
ΔSsurr?
-ΔHrxn/T
ΔSuniverse?
ΔSsys + ΔSsurr
How to calculate kelvin?
273.15 + ºC
Temperature when switches from spontaneous to non-spontaneous?
T= ΔHrxn/ΔSrxn
if T < 0, then always spontaneous
Arrhenius equation?
k= Ae^(-Ea/RT)
or
lnk= (-Ea/RT) + lnA
What is A in the Arrhenius equation?
The frequency factor
What does entropy measure?
Disorder, more order, less entropy
When is a rxn spontaneous?
When ΔGrxn < 0
or
When ΔSuniv > 0
Formula of rate law?
Rate=k[A]^x[B]^y
What to do when calculating a fraction after a time?
A ratio of after the time over initial time
How to increase rate?
Increase temp./ conc./ catalyst, SA
