Thermodynamics Flashcards
Define thermochemistry?
Deals with energy changes accompanying chemical transformations and is based on its law of thermodynamics.
Define thermochemical equation?
Balanced chemical equation with enthalpy change is called thermochemical equation.
For exothermic reaction delta H is _______ & for endothermic reaction delta H is ______.
Negative. Positive
What is standard enthalpy of reaction?
Enthalpy change for a reaction when all the reactants and products are taken in standard state(298K; 1bar).
What is standard enthalpy of formation?
Enthalpy change when ONE MOLE OF A COMPOUND is formed from THEIR ELEMENTS in STANDARD STATE.
In case of elements in their standard state, standard enthalpy of heat formation is taken as
Zero.
