thermochemistry Flashcards
exothermic reaction
Chemical reaction that releases heat to the surrounding
Temp of the reaction mixture increases
Heat released for bond formation is higher than heat absorbed for bond breaking
Endothermic reactionb
Chemical reaction that absorbed heat from the surrounding
Temp of the reaction mixture decreases
The heat absorbed for bond breaking is higher than heat released for bond formation
Heat of precipitation
Energy changes when one mole of precipitate is formed from their ions in aqueous solution
Heat of displacement
Energy changes when one mole of metal is being displaced from its salt solution by a more electropositive metal
Heat of neutralisation
Heat changes when one mole of water forms between an acid and alkali
Heat of combustion
Heat released when one mole of substance burnt completely in excess oxygen
Fuel value
Amount of heat energy released when one gram of fuel burnt completely in excess oxygen
Factor in selection of fuels
Fuel value
Cost of fuel
Availability and source of substance
Effects of fuels on environment
exothermic
chemical reactions that release heat to the surrounding
Endothermic
Chemical reaction the absorb heat from the surrounding
