20
Q

Energy is measured in?

A

Joules (J)

21
Q

What is an adiabatic system?

A

A closed system which does not permit transfer of energy as heat

22
Q

Define the enthalpy of reaction?

A

Enthalpy for the conversion of reactants in their standard state to products in their standard state

23
Q

Define the enthalpy of transition?

A

Standard enthalpy change accompanying a change of physical state

24
Q

Define the enthalpy of vaporisation?

A

Heat energy required to convert 1mol of pure substance in the liquid phase to the vapour phase at 1 bar

25
Q

Define enthalpy of sublimation?

A

Enthalpy change in a direct route between 2 states is the sum of the enthalpy changes for a sequence of enthalpy changes between 2 phases

26
Q

Define the enthalpy of formation?

A

Standard enthalpy of reaction in which the substance is formed from its elements in their standard state per mole of substance

27
Q

Spontaneous changes are those which…?

A

increase the entropy of the universe

28
Q

The entropy of an isolated system…?

A

increases in a spontaneous change

29
Q

For a reaction to be spontaneous what must delta G be?

A

Negative or equal to zero

30
Q

Does a catalyst shift the equilibrium position?

A

No, as it affects the forward and backward direction the same

31
Q

Does a catalyst affect delta G?

A

No
