Q

Drawing molecular orbital diagram

A

Use general electron numbers to find which diagram you use, then only VALENCE electrons are put into the orbitals :)

A

Will increase as you increase charge
As distance between ions increases, lattice energy decreases

16
Q

Q > K

A

reaction proceeds towards reactants
think k is better than q bc we learned it first

17
Q

which direction will a reaction go when delta G is positive?

18
Q

which direction will a reaction go when delta G is negative?

19
Q

K > 1

A

forward reaction is favored

20
Q

K < 1

A

reverse reaction is favored

21
Q

delta G and Kc formula

A

deltaG = -RT ln K

22
Q

delta H negative, delta S positive

A

exothermic (bc H is negative), entropy is getting greater (bc S is positive)
delta G is negative at all temps, and spontaneous at all temps

23
Q

delta H positive, delta S negative

A

endothermic,
delta G is positive at all temps, and non spontaneous at all temps

24
Q

delta H negative, delta S negative

A

reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures
non spontaneous at high temps

25
delta H positive, delta S positive
reaction is non spontaneous at low temps spontaneous at high temps
