Q

What is work

A

A force acting over a distance, usually in joules, some energy is converted to heat because of friction
In chemistry, work = pressure volume work, expansion and compression of gases

Q

Describe the signs of ΔE, q and W for different types of reactions

A

Exothermic = ΔE < 0 & q = -
Endothermic = ΔE > 0 & q = +
Work done by system (expanding/losing energy) =
w = -
Work done on system (compressed/gaining energy) =
w = +

Q

What is a state function

A

Property that depends on the current state of function (E, p, v) and is independent of the path taken to reach current state

21
Q

What is a path function

A

Work and heat depend on a specific pathway

22
Q

What is enthalpy

A

A defined state function as the sum of all internal energy of a system and the product of its pressure and volume (under constant pressure)

23
Q

State the equation for enthalpy

A
H = E + pv 
ΔH = E + pΔv 
ΔH = Qp
24
Q

When does ΔH ≈ ΔE

A

At constant pressure

25
State Avogadros law
Volume of ideal gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas
26
What is an extensive property
Depends on the amount of substance (energy & enthalpy)
27
What is an intensive property
Does not depend on amount of substance (temperature)
28
What is a heat capacity
Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance by one degree
29
What is q equal to
``` q = Cs x m x Δt q = Cn x n x Δt ```
30
What is thermal equilibrium
In a system where no energy is exchanged with surroundings q1 + q2 + q3 + ... + qn = 0
31
What is calorimetry
Science of measuring heat (heat of reactions being determined experimentally)
32
What is the equation for coffee-cup calorimetry
ΔH = Qp (constant pressure )
33
What is the equation for bomb calorimetry
ΔE = Qv (constant volume)
34
What enthalpy occurs at a melting point
Enthalpy of fusion | Qfus = nΔHfus
35
What enthalpy occurs at a boiling point
Enthalpy of vaporization | Qvap = nΔHvap
36
What type of reactions are melting and boiling
Endothermic | Qphasechange = nΔHphasechange
37
What type of reactions are freezing and condensation
Exothermic | Qphasechange = -nΔHphasechange
38
What is hess's law
Change in enthalpy is the same whether the reaction takes place in one step or series of steps
39
Describe the characteristics of hess's law
Enthalpies can be added Reaction reversed = sign of ΔH is flipped Reaction is multiplied = multiply ΔH by the same
40
What is standard enthalpy of formation
The change in enthalpy associated with the formation of one mole of a compound from its elements with all substances in their standard states ΔH*f
41
What are the standard states
``` Compounds = gases = 1 atm condensed states = pure liquid or solid solutions = concentration of 1 M Elements = 1 atm and 25*C ΔH*f of elements in their standard state = 0 **DIATOMIC STATES ```
42
What is the equation for standard Enthalpy of formation
ΔH*rxn = Σ nΔH*f (products) - Σ nΔH*f (reactants)
43
State the relationship of bond energy in an exothermic reaction
Potential energy of the products is lower than potential energy of reactants
44
State the relationship of bond energy in an endothermic reaction
Potential energy of the products is higher than potential energy of the reactants
45
What do bond energies represent
The amount of energy required to break 1 mole of bond (always positive)
46
What is the relationship between a bond length and its strength
Inverse relationship (stronger bonds = more pull so less length)
47
Describe stronger bonds
Lower in potential energy (more stable) than weaker bonds
48
What is the formula for bond strength calculations
ΔH = Σ n x D (bonds broken = reactants) - ΔH = Σ n x D (bonds formed = products)
