Q

Define exothermic

A

35
Q

Method to work out the enthaply change of neutralisation

A
  1. Allow acid and the base solutions to equilibrate
  2. Using the measuring cylinder, pour 25cm^3 of the base solution into a polystyrene cup
  3. Measure and record the temperature of the soltution in the polystyrenme cup to a suitable accuracy
  4. Using a measuring cylinder again add 25cm^3 of the acid to the polystyrene cup mixing gently
  5. Observe the increase in temperature of the solution ajnd record the maximum temperature reached to a suitable reaction
36
Q

how to improve the method to work out the enthaply change of neutralisation

A

better insulation of the polystyrene cup (add a lid)

Use a cooling curve

37
Q

What are the causes for less energy being transferred than expected when working out ΔH(c)?

A

Heat loss to the surroundings
Incomplete combustion
Non-standard conditions

38
Q

How can heat loss be accounted for using a graph of temperature against time?

A

Extrapolate the cooling curve back to when it was added.

39
Q

how to calculate deviation

A

(| expected value |)

40
Q

how to decrease percentage error

A

more precise thermometer
repeates and mean
add a lid to reduce heat loss

41
Q

what is average bond enthaply?

A

the enthaply change that takes place when one mole of a particular of bond in a gaseous molecule is broken. it is endothermic

42
Q

how to work out bond ethalpy change?

A

ΔH = reactant enthaply - product enthalpy

43
Q

What are some properties of bond enthalpies?

A

Energy is always required to break bonds
Bond enthalpies are always endothermic

Bond enthalpies always have a positive enthalpy value

44
Q

What kind of energy and enthalpy changes are bond formation?

A

Exothermic and releases energy

45
Q

What is Hess’ law?

A

If a reaction can take place by more than one route and the initial and final conditions are the same, the enthalpy change is the same for each route.

46
Q

What is Beckham’s law?

A

The enthaply change of the reverse reaction has the same value, but the opposite sign.
