Chapter 12 Flashcards
(32 cards)
definition: the total amount of energy in the universe is constant
1st law of thermodynamics
What is the equation for the universe?
universe = systems + surroundings
reaction + heat –> products
endothermic reaction
sigh change in Heat is +
endothermic
reactants –> products + heat
exothermic reaction
sign of change in heat is -
exothermic
Standard state means what
1 atm, 1M, and 25 degrees celcius
definitions: process that occurs naturally without outside push
spontaneous reaction
definition: process that requires an input of energy to occur
non spontaneous
do spontaneous reactions correlate w/speed
no
definition: to spread out
dispersal
definition: measure of dispersal energy (or “disorder”)
entropy
What are the different process that would lead to greater disorder?
- g> l> s
- mixtures> pure substances
- @ given temp heavier atoms> light atoms
As a solid changes to a gas what is happening?
it is becoming more disordered
As a gas changes to a solid what is happening?
its becoming less disordered
As temp, volume, or gas in products increases what happens to the state of disorder?
it increases
As temp, volume, or gas in products decreases what is happening to the disorder?
it decreases
definitions: in a spontaneous process the entropy of the universe increases
2nd Law of Thermodynamics
The equations for the 2nd Law of thermodynamics is for what?
freezing, melting or reversible
definitions: the entropy of a pure perfect crystalline substance @ OK is zero
3rd Law of Thermodynamics
this law of thermodynamics is when there is no faults in crystals & no movement
3rd law
Gibbs Free energy is another way to do what?
to determine spontanaity
Gsys = Hsys - TS is only for what situations
is if the temperature is not 25C
Gsys = nGf products - nGf reactant is only for situations
when the temperature is 25C
