17
Q

Define enthalpy change

A

The change in potential energy between products and reactants

18
Q

Define molar enthalpy change

A

The change when one mole of a substance undergoes a reaction (KJ/mol)

19
Q

What is a true example of an isolated system

A

Bomb calorimetry

20
Q

Substances with _____ potential energy are ____ stable compared to substances with _____ potential energy

A

Lower
More
Higher

21
Q

Energy efficiency formula:

A

Useful energy output/total energy input x100
Or
Experimental output/theoretical input x100

22
Q

What is collision theory

A

For a chemical reaction to occur particles must collide and collisions must be effective

23
Q

In order for collisions to be considered effective what 2 things have to be met

A

1) collision geometry (particles must have the correct orientation @ impact)
2) activation energy (particles must have enough collision energy)

24
Q

Activation energy=

A

The max amount of energy to get a reaction to occur

25
Formula for EA reverse
Ea rev= Ea for + Change in enthalpy
26
What do catalysts do in a reaction
They rovide an alternate pathway for a reaction to take place. The alternate pathway has a Lower Ea so the reaction is faster
27
Heterogenous catalyst=
Catalyst that’s in a different state then the reactants
28
Homogenous catalyst=
Catalyst in the same state as the reactants
29
What are considered biological catalysts and what temp do they act at
Enzymes 37c
