#1
Front (Question)

What is the exothermic reaction & it’s ΔH sign

Back (Answer)

ΔH- Heat loss to surrounding

#2
Front (Question)

What is the endoothermic reaction and it’s ΔH sign

Back (Answer)

ΔH+ Heat absorbed from surrounding

#3
Front (Question)

What is Activation energy

Back (Answer)

The minimum energy required for a reaction to take place

#4
Front (Question)

What are the 3 standard conditions for ΔH

Back (Answer)

298K 100kPa Solution at 1mol

#5
Front (Question)

What is standard enthalpy change of a reaction ΔrH

Back (Answer)

The enthalpy change for a given equation

#6
Front (Question)

What is standard enthalpy of combustion ΔcH

Back (Answer)

The enthalpy change when 1 mol of substance completely combusted at 298K and 100kPa

#7
Front (Question)

What is standard enthalpy of neutralisation ΔneutH

Back (Answer)

The enthalpy change when 1 mol of H2O is formed from the neutralisation reaction of H+ and OH- at 298K and 100kPa

#8
Front (Question)

What is standard enthalpy of formation ΔfH

Back (Answer)

The enthalpy chnage when 1 mol of compound is formed from it’s element at 298K and 100kPa

#9
Front (Question)

What is the apparatus that determines ΔH in a lab called

Back (Answer)

Calorimetry

#10
Front (Question)

What are the 2 equations used to calculate ΔH

Back (Answer)

q = mcΔT ΔH = -q/1000 / n

#11
Front (Question)

What are the 2 methods of calorimetry

Back (Answer)

• Combustion • Reaction in a solution

#12
Front (Question)

Why is the result of ΔcH is different to data book

Back (Answer)

-Heat loss to surrounding - Incomplete combustion - Evaporation of alcohol/ water

#13
Front (Question)

Why is the result of ΔrH is different to data book

Back (Answer)

• Heat loss to surrounding / Heat gained from surrounding • Incomplete reaction • Water evaporates from beaker

#14
Front (Question)

What stays the same even the same reaction is carried out with different amount of reactants

Back (Answer)

ΔH

#15
Front (Question)

What is changed if the amount of substance doesn’t affect ΔH

Back (Answer)

q, n, m, ΔT

#16
Front (Question)

Structure of predcting Temp change. questions

Back (Answer)

q= n x ΔH ΔH is the same n is ______ so q is ______ q= m c ΔT so m is _____ so ΔT is _______

#17
Front (Question)

What is average bond enthalpy

Back (Answer)

The enthalpy change for the brekaing of 1 mol of bonds in gaseous molecule

#18
Front (Question)

The more positive the bond enthalpy, the ______ the amount of energy needed to break the bond, so the _______ the bond

Back (Answer)

larger , stronger

#19
Front (Question)

Bond enthalpy (ΔBEH) are _________ (endo or exo)

Back (Answer)

Endothermic

#20
Front (Question)

Why are bond enthalpy always endothermic

Back (Answer)

As breaking bond always requires energy and making bond always releases energy (BENDO MEXO)

#21
Front (Question)

If a reaction is endothermic (ΔH+) meaning the energy required to break the bond is ____ than the energy realeased when making the bond

Back (Answer)

greater

#22
Front (Question)

If a reaction is exothermic (ΔH-) meaning the energy required to break the bond is ____ than the energy realeased when making the bond

Back (Answer)

less

#23
Front (Question)

What’s the equation for using Bond enthalpy to calculate ΔH

Back (Answer)

Σ Bond broken - Σ bond formed (BF)

#24
Front (Question)

Why is it not always possible to measure enthalpy change

Back (Answer)

• Very high activation energy • Very slow rate of reaction • Side reactions
