lecture 8🅱️ Flashcards
trends in chemical properties can be understood using
lattice enthalpy
down the group of metal carbonates and enthalpy of decomposition
down group:
metal = cation ionic radius increases
larger enthalpy of decomposition (more endothermic)
more energy needed to decompose into metal oxide + co2
large anions stabilise what
large cations
lattice MO > lattice MO3
lattice enthalpy decreases
small cations stabilise
small anions
small metal,, small 02,, very stable,,, lattice of MO will be stable ,, larger MO lattice enthalpy bcccc
more energy needed to break bonds if its more stable
stability : look at size
dissolution equation
MX (s) –> M+ aq + X- aq
hydroation enthalpies are always negtative
going from +g -> +aq
solubility = lattice +
hydration enthalpy
what makes smt more soluble
if the solid contains ions of different size
small cation and small anion
very large lattice enthalpy!!
MG lattice is very positive,,, INSOLUBLE
large cation and small anion
large lattice MX
large anion hydration
small cation hydration
MX is soluble
large cation means
easily hydrated
small number for enthalpy of hydration
small anion
hard to hydrate
large number for enthalpy of hydration
small cation and large anion
cation: large hydration number
anion: small hydration number
soluble
