New cards

What is pressure-volume work?

Work done when volume changes under constant pressure.

2
New cards

What is the equation for PV work?

w = -PΔV.

3
New cards

What happens to work when ΔV = 0?

No work is done.

4
New cards

What is enthalpy?

A thermodynamic quantity defined as H = U + PV.

5
New cards

What is ΔH?

The change in enthalpy of a system.

6
New cards

Under constant pressure, ΔH equals what?

Heat (q).

7
New cards

What is the enthalpy of reaction?

The difference between product and reactant enthalpies.

8
New cards

What does ΔH > 0 indicate?

An endothermic reaction.

9
New cards

What does ΔH < 0 indicate?

An exothermic reaction.

10
New cards

Is enthalpy an extensive or intensive property?

Extensive.

11
New cards

What does an extensive property depend on?

The amount of matter present.

12
New cards

Why must physical states be included in thermochemical equations?

They affect the enthalpy change.

13
New cards

What happens to ΔH when an equation is multiplied by a factor?

ΔH is multiplied by the same factor.

14
New cards

What happens to ΔH when an equation is reversed?

The sign changes.

15
New cards

What is Hess's Law?

The overall ΔH equals the sum of the ΔH values of individual steps.

16
New cards

Why does Hess's Law work?

Enthalpy is a state function.

17
New cards

What is the first step in solving Hess's Law problems?

Manipulate equations to obtain the desired reaction.

18
New cards

What do you do after manipulating Hess's Law equations?

Add the adjusted ΔH values.

19
New cards

What is the standard enthalpy of formation (ΔHf°)?

The heat change when 1 mole of a compound forms from its elements in their standard states.

20
New cards

What is the ΔHf° of an element in its standard state?

Zero.
