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
Q

State Avogadros law

A

Volume of ideal gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas

26
Q

What is an extensive property

A

Depends on the amount of substance (energy & enthalpy)

27
Q

What is an intensive property

A

Does not depend on amount of substance (temperature)

28
Q

What is a heat capacity

A

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance by one degree

29
Q

What is q equal to

A 
q = Cs x m x Δt
q = Cn x n x Δt
30
Q

What is thermal equilibrium

A

In a system where no energy is exchanged with surroundings q1 + q2 + q3 + … + qn = 0

31
Q

What is calorimetry

A

Science of measuring heat (heat of reactions being determined experimentally)

32
Q

What is the equation for coffee-cup calorimetry

A

ΔH = Qp (constant pressure )

33
Q

What is the equation for bomb calorimetry

A

ΔE = Qv (constant volume)

34
Q

What enthalpy occurs at a melting point

A

Enthalpy of fusion

Qfus = nΔHfus

35
Q

What enthalpy occurs at a boiling point

A

Enthalpy of vaporization

Qvap = nΔHvap

36
Q

What type of reactions are melting and boiling

A

Endothermic

Qphasechange = nΔHphasechange

37
Q

What type of reactions are freezing and condensation

A

Exothermic

Qphasechange = -nΔHphasechange

38
Q

What is hess’s law

A

Change in enthalpy is the same whether the reaction takes place in one step or series of steps

39
Q

Describe the characteristics of hess’s law

A

Enthalpies can be added
Reaction reversed = sign of ΔH is flipped
Reaction is multiplied = multiply ΔH by the same

40
Q

What is standard enthalpy of formation

A

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
Q

What are the standard states

A 
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
Q

What is the equation for standard Enthalpy of formation

A

ΔHrxn = Σ nΔHf (products) - Σ nΔH*f (reactants)

43
Q

State the relationship of bond energy in an exothermic reaction

A

Potential energy of the products is lower than potential energy of reactants

44
Q

State the relationship of bond energy in an endothermic reaction

A

Potential energy of the products is higher than potential energy of the reactants

45
Q

What do bond energies represent

A

The amount of energy required to break 1 mole of bond (always positive)

46
Q

What is the relationship between a bond length and its strength

A

Inverse relationship (stronger bonds = more pull so less length)

47
Q

Describe stronger bonds

A

Lower in potential energy (more stable) than weaker bonds

48
Q

What is the formula for bond strength calculations

A

ΔH = Σ n x D (bonds broken = reactants) - ΔH = Σ n x D (bonds formed = products)
