Unit 9 Flashcards
what equals a high entropy
a more dispersment of moleucles
what does more molecules mean in terms of entropy
a higher entropy
State the levels of entropy in order for the state of matter
Solid
Liquid
Gas (most entropy)
What are the three degrees of freedom in molecules
translational, vibrational, and rotational
what happens when there are more degrees of freedom
a higher entropy
what is a solution and its abbreviation
a molecule that is mixed with water and known as aq
what is the variable and unit for entropy
S, J/K
what does thermodynamically favorable mean in terms of G
G IS LESS THAN ONE
define thermodynamically favored
the reaction just happens on it’s own with no energy required
When a -H and a +S are evaluated what is the sign of the G value and is it thermodynamically favored
The G is always negative, favored
When a -H and a -S are evaluated what is the G value and is it thermodynamically favored
The G vallue is undetermined. It depends on the temperature. It will be favored if there is a low temperature
When a +H and a +S are evaluated what is the G value and is it thermodynamically favored
The G value is undetermined. It depends on the temperature. it will be favored if there is a high temperature
When a +H and a -S are evaluated what is the G value and is it thermodynamically favored
Not every thermodynamically favored
What is kinetic control
It means that the reaction is favorable but they have extremely high activation energies.
answer:
when G<0 k is
when G=0 k is
when G>0 K is
K is >1
K=1
K <1
what is coupling
a reaction, originally unfavorable, that occurs in multiple steps to produce a thermodynamically favorable reaction
what occurs at the anode
oxidation
what occurs at the cathode
reduction
what is oxidixzation
when an electrons are lost so it’s charge goes up
what is reduction
when an electron is gained so it’s charge goes down
oxidization number rule for group 1 metsls
always +1
oxidixation number rule for group 2 metals
alway 2+
oxidixation number rule for oxygen
-2
oxidixation number rule for hydrogen
+1 except -1 with a metal
