Q

What is Enthalpy?

A

Total energy in a system

17
Q

What letter symbolizes Enthalpy?

A

‘H’

18
Q

What does Enthalpy include?

A

Includes potential energy in bonds of molecules and effect of molecules kinetic energy on surrounding pressure

19
Q

What is Enthalpy a measure of?

A

Enthalpy is a measure of the amount of energy taken in or released of a system during a chemical reaction as bonds are broken and new bonds form.

20
Q

What happens during an Endothermic Enthalpy Reaction?

A

Heat energy is taken up (used). Reactants have lower enthalpy than the products that have higher enthalpy. Change in H is positive.

21
Q

What happens during an Exothermic Enthalpy Reaction?

A

Heat is released. Products have a lower enthalpy than the reactants that have a higher enthalpy. Change in H is negative

22
Q

What are changes in H primarily based on?

A

Potential Energy

23
Q

What is Gibbs Free Energy?

A

It determines whether reactions are spontaneous or requires added energy to proceed

24
Q

What letter symbolizes Gibbs Free Energy?

A

‘G’

25
Q

What is the equation for Gibbs Free Energy?

A

ΔG = ΔH − TΔS

26
Q

What does ΔG>0 mean?

A

A chemical reaction requires an input of energy (Positive correlation on graph)

27
Q

What does Endergonic mean?

A

Products of these reactions will have more free energy than reactants

28
Q

What does ΔG<0 mean?

A

A chemical reaction releases energy (Negative correlation on graph)

29
Q

What does Exergonic mean?

A

Reactants of these reactions will have more free energy than products

30
Q

What are spontaneous reactions?

A

Exergonic reactions are spontaneous because they do not need any added energy. Though spontaneous doesn’t mean that it happens quickly

31
Q

Why doesn’t glucose spontaneously combust as it doesn’t need added energy when oxidation occurs?

A

Due to activation energy

32
Q

What is Activation Energy?

A

The initial energy needed to start a chemical reaction

33
Q

What is the Transition State?

A

It is the unstable state where reactions happen very quickly, that activation energy causes reactants to become contorted and unstable and allows the bonds to be broken or made

34
Q

What is the main source fro activation energy?

A

Heat energy; as it helps reactants reach transition state

35
Q

What 3 directions can chemical reactions result in?

A
  1. Lower Potential Energy
  2. ncreased entropy
  3. Or both
36
Q

What are Thermodynamics?

A

The study of energy and energy transfer involving physical matter

37
Q

What does the 1st Law of Thermodynamics state?

A

Energy can be transferred and transformed but it cannot be created or destroyed. Energy is conserved. “The same energy on Earth 200 million years ago is the same energy today.”

38
Q

What does the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics state?

A

During every energy transfer some energy is unusable and is dissipated as heat
