1
New cards

heat of reaction/enthalpy (ΔH)

the energy absorbed or released per mole in a chemical reaction

2
New cards

exothermic reactions

reactions that release energy

3
New cards

endothermic reactions

reactions that absorb energy

4
New cards

activation energy

the minimum energy needed for a reaction to take place

5
New cards

activated complex

the unstable transition state from reactants to products

6
New cards

rate of reaction

the change in concentration of reactants or products per unit time

7
New cards

catalyst

a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing a permanent change

8
New cards

open system

a system that continuously interacts with its environment

9
New cards

isolated system

a system that is isolated from its surroundings

10
New cards

reversible reaction

a reaction is reversible when products can be converted back to reactants and vice versa

11
New cards

chemical equilibrium

a dynamic equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction
