#1
Front (Question)

bond dissociation enthalpy

Back (Answer)

standard molar enthalpy change when one mole of a covalent bond is broken into two gaseous atoms Cl2—>2Cl

#2
Front (Question)

first electron affinity

Back (Answer)

the enthalpy change that occurs when 1 mole of gaseous atoms gain 1 mole of electrons to form 1 mole of gaseous -1 ion O + e- —-> O-

#3
Front (Question)

lattice enthalpy

Back (Answer)

the standard enthalpy change that occurs when 1 mole of an ionic crystal lattice is formed from its constituent ions in gaseous form Na+ + Cl- —-> NaCl

#4
Front (Question)

enthalpy of hydration

Back (Answer)

one mole of gaseous ions become aqueous ions

#5
Front (Question)

enthalpy of solution

Back (Answer)

standard enthalpy change when 1 mole of ionic solid dissolves in a large enough amount of water to ensure the dissolved ions are well separated and do not interact with one and other

#6
Front (Question)

enthalpy of atomisation

Back (Answer)

enthalpy change when 1 mole of gaseous atoms are formed from its elements in its standard states

#7
Front (Question)

enthalpy of neutralisation

Back (Answer)

standard enthalpy change when 1 mole of water is formed in a reaction between an acid and an alkali under standard conditions

#8
Front (Question)

enthalpy of formation

Back (Answer)

standard enthalpy change when 1 mole of a compound is formed from its constituent elements in their standard states under standard conditions

#9
Front (Question)

enthalpy of combustion

Back (Answer)

enthalpy when 1 mole of a substance is completely burned in oxygen with all reactants and products in standard states under standard conditions

#10
Front (Question)

in hess’ law when using formation data which way do the arrows point

Back (Answer)

upwards

#11
Front (Question)

in hess’ law when using combustion data which way do the arrows point

Back (Answer)

downwards

#12
Front (Question)

give the calculation for delta H

Back (Answer)

delta H = sum of products - sum of reactants

#13
Front (Question)

when calculating bond enthalpy what equation is used

Back (Answer)

enthalpy change = sum of reactants - sum of products

#14
Front (Question)

give the equation that calculates q

Back (Answer)

q=mcdeltaT /1000 m= mass of substance heated c= specific heat capacity (4.18)

#15
Front (Question)

give the equation to find enthalpy change per mole

Back (Answer)

enthalpy change = q/n

#16
Front (Question)

which two factors contribute to a greater lattice enthalpy

Back (Answer)

• sizes of ions - the larger the ion the less negative the lattice enthalpy, the charges become further apart so have a weaker attractive force between them • charges of the ions- the bigger the charge the greater the attraction between the ions so the stronger the lattice enthalpy

#17
Front (Question)

what is the perfect ionic model

Back (Answer)

where the ions are completely ionic and spherical and the attractions are purely electrostatic

#18
Front (Question)

when is there tendency towards covalent character in ionic substances

Back (Answer)

• the positive ion is small • the positive ion has multiple charges • the negative ions is large • the negative ions has multiple negative charges

#19
Front (Question)

what is polarisation

Back (Answer)

when the negative ion becomes distorted and more covalent the metal cation is more polarising if it polarises the negative ion

#20
Front (Question)

what is entropy

Back (Answer)

the number of ways atoms can share quanta of energy, high entropy means the system is disorders as there are more ways of arranging it

#21
Front (Question)

what is the substance with the lowest entropy and why

Back (Answer)

perfect crystal of diamond because there is only 1 type of atom 1 regular giant structure

#22
Front (Question)

give the order of entropy of solids, liquids and gases

Back (Answer)

highest gas liquid solid lowest

#23
Front (Question)

what is the effect of moles on entropy

Back (Answer)

if there is a significant increase in the number of moles from reactants to products then entropy increases

#24
Front (Question)

what is the unit of entropy

Back (Answer)

JK^-1 mol^-1
