21
Q

In an exothermic reaction the products have ____ energy than the reactants because

A

Less, energy is being released to the surroundings

22
Q

In the endothermic reaction the enthalpy change is ______ because

A

Positive, the reactantion gains energy from its surroundings

23
Q

ΔH =

A

H(products) - H(reactants)

24
Q

The activated complex is

A

A high energy, unstable arrangement of atoms

25

29
Q

When using cm³ water measurements in enthalpy change calculations

A

Remember to convert to kilograms

30
Q

31
Q

When calculating Bond enthalpies, remember breaking bonds

A

Requires energy

32
Q

When calculating Bond enthalpies remember

A

Making bonds releases energy

33
Q

Molar bond enthalpy is

34
Q

Equilibrium is where

A

The rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the backwards reaction

35
Q
A
35
Q

Concentrations of reactants and products at equilibrium are _______ but rarely _______

A

Constant, equal

36
Q

How do catalysts impact equilibrium

A

They don’t move the equilibrium but may increase the speed at which it is reached

37
Q

Effect of addition of an alkali on equilibrium when the product includes H+ ions

A

Right, as the the alkali removes H+ ions and the forwards reaction will replace them

38
Q

If you increase pressure the equilibrium will shift to____

A

Get rid of whichever side has more mols of gas

39
Q

If the forward reaction is exothermic then an increase in temperature will..

A

Favour the backwards reaction, equilibrium shifts left

40

Type of chromatography results

A

Distance or time against response graph

43
Q

Concordant titre volumes

A

0.2cm³

44
Q

Titration not requiring an indicator

A

Acidified permanganate, since it already goes purple to colourless

45
