What is an exothermic reaction?
One that gives out energy to the surroundings
What is an endothermic reaction?
One that takes in energy from the surroundings
In terms of energy, what happens when bonds are broken?
Energy is required (endothermic)
In terms of energy, what happens when bonds are formed?
Energy is released (exothermic)
How do you remember whether energy is released or required when bonds are being rearranged?
Bendy Mexicans B(endo)ROKEN M(exo)ADE
What does it mean if the energy of the products is lower than the reactants?
Energy has been released and the reaction is exothermic
What does it mean if the energy of the products is higher than the reactants?
Energy has been taken in and the reaction is endothermic
How does a catalyst increase the rate of reaction?
By lowering the activation energy
How do you work out total energy change?
• total for breaking bonds: no. of bonds x energy it takes to break that type of bond • total for making bonds: no. of bonds x energy it takes to make that type of bond • total energy change: breaking bonds - making bonds
What does it mean if you get a positive number when working out energy change?
The reaction is endothermic
What does it mean if you get a negative number when working out energy change?
The reaction is exothermic
In terms of energy change, what do exothermic and endothermic reactions always have?
• endothermic always have positive energy changes * exothermic always have negative
How can a simple cell be made?
By connecting two different metals in contact with an electrolyte
What do batteries consist of to provide a greater voltage?
Two or more cells connected
What chemicals are cells made from?
• carbon rod with metal cathode • manganese oxide • ammonium chloride • zinc casting anode
What is the electrolyte in a cell made of?
Ammonium chloride
What is the anode made of in a cell?
Zinc casting
What does the voltage produced by a cell depend on?
The type of metals making up the cathode and anode and electrolyte
What happens when two metals are dipped in salt solution and joined by a wire?
The more reactive metal will donate electrons to the less reactive metal to form an electrical cell
Which metal will lose their electrons in a simple electrical cell?
The more reactive metal
What happens when there is a greater difference between reactivity of metals in a cell?
There will be a higher voltage produced
Are alkaline batteries rechargeable?
No
What happens when one of the reactants has been used up in non-rechargeable batteries?
The chemical reactions stop
What happens to the chemical reactions in rechargeable batteries?
They are reversed using an external electrical current
