Q

how does temp effect ROR

A

increased kinetic energy so increased movement, more successful collisions per second, more likely to have sufficient activation energy

22
Q

how do catalysts affect ROR

A

offers alternative pathway of lower activation energy
used to reduce energy demand from combustion of fossil fuels, therefore reduced CO2 emissions

23
Q

boltzmann distribution graphs

A

at end: line will come close to the x axis but never touch it

24
Q

what is the boltzmann distribution (def)

A

the distribution of energies of molecules at a particular temperature

25
Q

effect on graph of higher temp and catalysts

A

higher temp: peak is lower and line moves to the right
catalysts: Ea moves to the left

26
Q

homogenous vs heterogenous catalysts

A

homo: catalysts in same PHASE as reactants
hetero: different phases

27
Q

why do people use catalysts

A

lower energy demands, reducing costs and environmental impact
burning less fossil fuels, producing less CO2

28
Q

rate of reaction def

A

change in conc of reactant or product / unit time

29
Q

rate constant =

A

k

30
Q

half life def

A

time taken for the conc of a reactant to reduce by half

31
Q

half life time intervals: zero order, first order, second order (inc or dec)

A

zero order => half life decreases
first order => half life remains constant
second order => half life increases

32
Q

first order reaction we can determine rate constant ‘k’ from the constant half life (t1/2) using:

A

k = ln2
—— s-1
t1/2

ln = calculator button (natural log)

33
Q

rate determining step is

A

the slowest step in a multi stage reaction

34
Q

lattice enthalpy def

A

enthalpy change when 1 MOLE of a solid ionic lattice is formed from its GASEOUS ions under STANDARD conditions (1atm, 298K)

35
Q

lattice enthalpy: -500 is bigger than -100 so the bond strength is

A

stronger

36
Q

arrhenius equation compared to y = mx + c

A

y = ln k

mx = -Ea/RT
x = 1/T so to find activation energy you do: - gradient x R (always needs to be a positive value)

c = + ln A

37
Q

what 2 things affect lattice enthalpy and how

A

charge and ionic raidius

same charge but smaller the atomic radius, then higher electron density so more exothermic
same size but higher charge, then higher charge density so more exothermic

38
Q

enthalpy of atomisation def

A

1 mole of GASEOUS atoms forms from the ELEMENTS in their standard states

39
Q

first electron affinity def

A

enthalpy change when 1 electron is added to each atom in 1 MOLE of gaseous atoms to form 1 mole of gaseous 1- ions

(opposite to first ionisation energy)

40
Q

born haber cycle info

A

use bendomexo, if endothermic so bond breaking (DeltaH atomisation, ionisation energy) arrow up.
exothermic bond making (e- affinity, lattice enthalpy) arrow down.

equations: DeltaH formation = all the other numbers

41
Q

is SECOND electron affinity endo or exo

A

endo, as the repulsion between -ve ion and -ve electron has to be overcome

42
Q

enthalpy of solution def

A

enthalpy change when 1MOLE of a solute is COMPLETELY dissolved in water under standard conditions

43
Q

enthalpy of hydration def

A

enthalpy change when 1MOLE of aqueous ions are formed from their GASEOUS ions under standard conditions

44
Q

entropy def

A

a measure of dispersal of energy in a system, greater the more disordered a system is

ΔS

45
Q

entropy units

A

J K-1 mol-1

46
Q

entropy increases as temp increases because

A

particles gain energy and move faster apart (less ordered)

47
Q

change in entropy when there’s an increase in number of gaseous molecules

A

entropy increases (gas is most disordered)

48
Q

entropy calculation

A

ΔS = ΣΔ products — ΣΔ reactants

49
Q

when disorder increases, ΔS…

A

increases and is positive

50
Q

free energy topic - we say a reaction is feasible or spontaneous if

A

chemical system becomes more stable and overall energy decreases

overall energy is Gibbs free-energy ΔG

51
Q

ΔG equation free energy

A

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

t = temp in Kelvin
kelvin’s cancel out, and have to divide ΔS by 1000 so it’s also in kJmol-1

52
Q

for a reaction to be feasible G must be…

A

negative (as overall energy decreases so more stable)

53
Q

if they ask you to calculate temp at which a reaction is feasible

A

make ΔG = 0 so…

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
0 = ΔH - TΔS
TΔS = ΔH
T = ΔH / ΔS

54
Q

if asked to find minimum temp a reaction is feasible…

A

make ΔG = 0

in the ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
rearranged =
T = ΔH / ΔS
