Entropy
Hess's Law
Standard Enthalpy of Formation & Bond Energy
Definitions and Concepts
100

An iron bar is heated from 40°C to 80°C and does not melt. In this case, the entropy is doing this:

A) What is increasing?

B) What is decreasing?

C) What is not changing?

What is increasing?

100

2Cu (s) + O2 (g) --> 2CuO (s) 

This value is the ∆H°rxn.

What is -157.3 kJ/mol?

100

This number of kJ/mol is the ∆H°f of Cl2 gas.

What is 0?

200

Is entropy a state function?*

Yes

200

This is the meaning of bond energy as used in problems such as the ones we went over in class.

What is the energy required to break the bond between two atoms?

200

The change in altitude between the base and the summit in this image is an example of this concept we discussed.

What is a state function?

300

As molten rock cools from a liquid to a solid after being exposed to air, the ∆H is this (+/-) and the ∆S is this (+/-).

What are negative & negative?

300

This value is ∆H for the missing reaction using Hess's Law.

What is -44 kJ/mol?

300

When calculating ∆H°rxn, we subtract ∆H°f reactants from ∆H°f products for this reason.*

∆H°f is the standard enthalpy of formation, but the reactants are being broken apart, not forming.

300

This is the pressure at STP (Standard Temperature & Pressure).

What is 1 atm?

400

In the equation 

2H2 (g+ O2 (g) --> 2H2O (g)

is ∆S positive or negative?*

Negative

400

This value is ∆H for the following reaction using Hess's Law.

What is -2717.5 kJ
400

6H2O + 6CO2 --> C6H12O6 + 6O2 

This value is the approximate molar enthalpy for this reaction.

What is 2031 kJ/mol?

400

Bond energy is always positive & endothermic for this reason.*

Bonds need to be broken which requires energy input.
