module 4 Flashcards
what breaking bonds
energy is absorbed
forming bonds
energy is released
exothermic reactions
- release energy
- temperature increases
- bond forming is greater than bond breaking
endothermic reactions
- absorb energy
- temperature decreases
- bond breaking is greater than bond forming
solute dissolves in solvent to form a solution
solute -solute bonds: broken (requires energy –> endothermic):
- ionic lattice held together by ionic bonds –> forces
of electrostatic attraction between positively and
negatively charged ions
solvent-solvent bonds: broken (requires energy –> endothermic):
- liquid state (water molecules are held together by
intermolecular forces eg. hydrogen bonding, dipole
- dipole interactions, dispersion forces)
solute-solvent interactions: formed (between ions and water molecules –> energy is released –> exothermic)
- solvation/hydration(case of water) –> solvent
molecules form hydration spheres around
individual ions
- the ion - dipole forces are formed between the
ions and the water molecules are. formed –>
stronger than hydrogen bonding in water
molecules
exothermic and endothermic dissolution of salts
- more energy required to break solute - solute and solvent - solvent (salit dissolves exothermically)
- less energy required to break solute - solute and solvent - solvent (salt dissolves endothermically)
salt that dissolves endothermically
- less energy required to break solute solute and solvent solvent interactions
eg. KCl
salt that dissolves exothermically
- more energy required to break solvent solvent and solute solute
eg. NaOH
molar heat of a solution (dissolution)
molar enthalpy change (delta H) (quantity of heat released upon the dissolution of one mole of a particular substance)
- J or kJ
- delta H = -q/n
- q = J
enthalpy
amount. of stored heat energy within a substance
H reaction = h products - h reactants
- reactants > products (exo) (more energy for bond forming)
- reactants < products (endo) ( more energy for bond breaking)
law of conservation of energy
energy cannot be created nor destroyed oonly reaaranged
transition state/activated complex
point in the reaction pathway between breaking and forming new covalent bonds
bond breaking
- absorbs energy
- delta H > 0
- endo
- positive
bond forming
- releases energy
- delta H < 0
- exo
- negative
energy profile diagrams
- change in enthalpy as the reaction proceeds
- larger the activation complex th emore enery that is required to start the reaction
x - axis: reaction pathway
y - axis: potential energy (kj)
heat released (q)
q = mcAt
- q = J
- m = g
- c = J
- T = K
