Define Enthalpy of reaction ΔrH
enthalpy change that accompanies a reaction in the molar quantities shown in a chemical equation under standard conditions, with all reactants and products in their standard states
Define Enthalpy of formation ΔfH
enthalpy change when one mole of compound is formed from its constituent elements under standard conditions
Define Enthalpy of combustion ΔcH
enthalpy change when one mole of substance is burnt completely in excess oxygen under standard conditions
How does ionic bonding work?
- Loss of an electron(s) by an element2. Gain electrons by a second element3. Attraction between positive and negative ions
Na + Cl, ionisation electron addinity and latice equations
Ionisation Energy – Na e- + Na+ +496kJmol-1Electron Affinity – e- + Cl Cl- -349kJmol-1Lattice Enthalpy – Cl- + Na+ NaCl -766kJmol-1
What is electron affinity?
.The enthalpy change when one mole of electron is added to one mole of atoms in the gaseous phase to form one mole of -1 ions
Is repulsion between two electrons exothermic or endothermic, why?
.Repulsion between two negatively charged things requires energy so exothermic
What is lattice enthalpy?
.ΔHlatt is the enthalpy change when 1 mole of ionic substance is formed from its gaseous ions under standard conditions
.The strength of the ionic bond is related to the lattice enthalpy, how?
more exothermic the greater the ionic bonding
Lattice enthalpy can’t be measured, why?
Cannot be measured directly as cannot form one mole of ionic lattice from gaseous ions
What are the factors affecting lattice enthalpy? How?
Charge – .The greater the charge on the ions, the stronger the attraction – therefore, more exothermic lattice enthalpySize – .Smaller ions can pack together more tightly, therefore there is greater attraction and more exothermic lattice enthalpy
Why, when moving down group two, do the temperatures required to break the lattice increase?
.They have decreasing charge densities.Mg2+ is a smaller ion than Ba2+ , so the +2 charge occupies a smaller volume – this means Mg2+ has a higher charge density than Ba2+.Mg2+ can distort the electron clouds within the CO32- ion (called polarisation), this weakens the covalent bonding in the ion and reduces its decomposition temperature
Equation to work out lattice enthalpy from born haber cycle
L.E = FORMATION – sum(ATOM + I.E + E.A)orL.E = FORMATION – sum(REST)
What are Born Haber Cycles used for?
Born Haber cycles can be used to calculate a measure of ionic bond strength based on experimental data

Define enthalpy of solution, with an example
DeltasolutionH is the enthalpy change when one mole of ionic compound is completely dissolved in water under standard conditions.e.g. NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)
What is enthalpy of hydration with example
- Delta Hhydration¬ is the enthalpy which takes place when one mole of gaseous ions is dissolved in water forming one mole of aqueous ions under standard conditions- Na+(g) + aq Na+(aq)
Why is enthalpy of hydration always exothermic?
These are exothermic as bonds are formed between the ions and water molecules
Factors Affecting Enthalpy of Hydration
Charge – the higher charge on the ion, the greater the attraction for the H2O molecules, therefore a more exothermic hydrationSize – smaller ions have a greater charge density compared to the larger ions, this creates a greater attraction for H2O molecules, therefore a more exothermic hydration
Draw the general cycle of enthalpy of solution, hydration and lattice enthalpy
check notes
Equation that links lattice enthalpy, enthalpy of solution, and enthalpy of hydration
lattice enthalpy + enthalpy of solution = sum of the enthalpy of hydrations
A chemical reaction will proceed when?
A chemical reaction will proceed if the products are energetically more stable than the reactants
