What is electron affinity?
.The enthalpy change when one mole of electron is added to one mole of atoms in the gaseous phase to form one mole of -1 ions
Is repulsion between two electrons exothermic or endothermic, why?
.Repulsion between two negatively charged things requires energy so exothermic
What is lattice enthalpy?
.ΔHlatt is the enthalpy change when 1 mole of ionic substance is formed from its gaseous ions under standard conditions
.The strength of the ionic bond is related to the lattice enthalpy, how?
more exothermic the greater the ionic bonding
Lattice enthalpy can’t be measured, why?
Cannot be measured directly as cannot form one mole of ionic lattice from gaseous ions
What are the factors affecting lattice enthalpy? How?
Charge – .The greater the charge on the ions, the stronger the attraction – therefore, more exothermic lattice enthalpySize – .Smaller ions can pack together more tightly, therefore there is greater attraction and more exothermic lattice enthalpy
Why, when moving down group two, do the temperatures required to break the lattice increase?
.They have decreasing charge densities.Mg2+ is a smaller ion than Ba2+ , so the +2 charge occupies a smaller volume – this means Mg2+ has a higher charge density than Ba2+.Mg2+ can distort the electron clouds within the CO32- ion (called polarisation), this weakens the covalent bonding in the ion and reduces its decomposition temperature

Define enthalpy of solution, with an example
DeltasolutionH is the enthalpy change when one mole of ionic compound is completely dissolved in water under standard conditions.e.g. NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
What is enthalpy of hydration with example
- Delta Hhydration¬ is the enthalpy which takes place when one mole of gaseous ions is dissolved in water forming one mole of aqueous ions under standard conditions- Na+(g) + aq Na+(aq)
Why is enthalpy of hydration always exothermic?
These are exothermic as bonds are formed between the ions and water molecules
Factors Affecting Enthalpy of Hydration
Charge – the higher charge on the ion, the greater the attraction for the H2O molecules, therefore a more exothermic hydrationSize – smaller ions have a greater charge density compared to the larger ions, this creates a greater attraction for H2O molecules, therefore a more exothermic hydration
Draw the general cycle of enthalpy of solution, hydration and lattice enthalpy

A chemical reaction will proceed when?
A chemical reaction will proceed if the products are energetically more stable than the reactants
What is entropy?
Entropy is a measure of the dispersal of energy in a system, the more disordered a system the greater the dispersal of energy = higher entropywe define entropy as a measure of disorder
What happens to entropy over time?
Entropy must increase over time
When is a system in a state of high entorpy?
When its degree of disorder is high
As order within a system increases, its entropy decreases, why?
This can be explained in terms of probability: disordered states are simply more likely to exist (or emerge) than ordered states.The spontaneous direction of change is from a less probable to a more probable state
What does entropy always do?
The total entropy always increases, and the process is irreversible
What is the unit for entropy
Sin JK^-1mol^-1
Why is S (entropy) alwasy potisive?
All substances process some degree of disorder because particles are always in constant motion
How does the entropy of each state differ?
Solid has lowest entropy, and gas has the highest

Define the standard entropy change
The standard entropy change is the entropy change that accompanies a reaction in the molar quantities expressed in the equation, under standard conditions
Sum for delta S^theta
delta S^theta = sum(S^theta products) – sum(S^theta reactants)
Why are exothermic reactions more preferable in nature?
as the products are more stable than reactantsthe key is not the decrease in energy but the associated increase in entropy of the surroundings.

What is gibbs free energy equation?
deltaG = deltaH – T deltaS < 0
How do you get to gibbs free energy equation?
deltaStotal¬ = deltaSsystem + deltaSsurroundings > 0deltaStotal¬ = deltaSsystem – (deltaHsystem)/T > 0T deltaStotal = T deltaSsystem – deltaHsystem > 0-T deltaStotal = -T deltaSsytem + deltaHsystem < 0deltaG = deltaH – T deltaS < 0
Using deltaG explain when a reaction is and is not feasible
deltaG must be negative (<0) for a reaction to be feasible i.e. proceedIf deltaG is positive (>0) then a reaction is not feasible
What is deltaG at the points of feasibility?
At the point of feasibility, we can say deltaG = 0 (assume that deltaH and deltaS don’t vary with temperature)
At low temperatures what does deltaGsystem equal? why?
- At low temperatures, deltaGsystem = deltaH (-T deltaS becomes negligible) so for a reaction to occur it needs to be exothermic
At high tempertaures deltaGsystem ewuals what? why?
- At high temperatures, deltaGsystem = -T deltaS (deltaH becomes negligible) so for a reaction to occur it needs to have a positive deltaS as – T deltaS needs to be less than 0
Limitations to deltaG equation
just because the value is negative and so feasible it doesn’t mean it occurs, the reaction rate might be incredibly slow or the activation energy too high
