Term
What type of reaction are combustion and neutralization
Definition
Exothermic reactions.
Term
Define the term exothermic reaction
Definition
It results in a transfer of heat from the system to the surroundings. The products have less energy or heat content than the reactants. Enthalpy change is negative.
Term
Define the term endothermic reaction
Definition
Results in heat being absorved by by the system from its surroundings. The products have less heat content than the reactants. ΔH is positive
Term
Define the term standard enthalpy change of reaction.
Definition
Is the heat energy transferred under standard conditions:
-a temperature of 298K or 25°C
-a pressure of 100 kPa
-concentrations of 1 mole dm-3
-all the substances in their standard state.
Term
Say the formula used to calculate heat energy change when the temperature of a pure substance is changed.
Definition
heat change(J)=m(g)c(Jg^-1K^-1)ΔT(K)
where m=mass, c is heat capacity, and ΔT is change in temperature.
1K=1°C
