1
New cards

what occurs during chemical reactions (referring to bonds)

  • energy must be supplied to break bonds in reactants

  • energy is released when bonds in the products are formed

2
New cards

In an exothermic reaction..

… the energy released from forming new bonds is greater than the energy needed to break existing bonds

3
New cards

In an endothermic reaction…

… the energy needed to break existing bonds is greater than the energy released from forming new bonds

4
New cards

what can you calculate from bond energies?

The energy needed to break bonds and the energy released when bonds are formed

5
New cards

The overall energy change of the reaction is…

… the difference between the sum of energy needed to break bonds in the reactants and the sum of energy released when bonds in the products are formed
