1
New cards
Enthalpy (H)
The heat stored by a substance in a chemical reaction.
2
New cards
ΔH
The overall enthalpy change for a reaction.
3
New cards
Exothermic reaction
A reaction in which heat energy is given out; products have less energy than reactants.
4
New cards
Endothermic reaction
A reaction in which heat energy is absorbed; products have more enthalpy than reactants.
5
New cards
Activated complex
A high energy intermediate state in a chemical reaction where bonds are breaking and forming.
6
New cards
Activation energy
The energy barrier that must be overcome to change reactants into products.
7
New cards
Effect of a catalyst
A catalyst provides an alternative reaction pathway that lowers the activation energy.
8
New cards
Solid → Liquid
This state change means gaining energy.
9
New cards
Gas → Liquid
This state change means losing energy, resulting in a negative ΔH.
