Hint
Answer
 
what colour is hydrochloric acid solution
colourless
 
in what environment will a reversible reaction always reach dynamic equilibrium
closed system
 
if a reversible reaction is exothermic one way what will the other way be
endothermic
 
what poisonous gas is produced during the reaction between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid and how do we prevent getting harmed
sulfur dioxide is produced which dissolves in water to give an acidic solutionof sulfurous acid. The reaction is carried out in a well ventilated room so we don't get harmed.
 
what one thing do reactions need to take place
activation energy
 
what is the unit cm³ the same as
grams
9999999999999999999
what is the enthalpy change
change in heat during a reaction at constant pressure
 
what is △H measured in usually
kJ/mol
 
state the word equation in the thermal decomposition of ammonium chloride
ammonium chloride ⇌ nitrogen + hydrogen chloride
 
what will happen if you carry out the calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid experiment but with bigger marble chips with a total mass of the same before, like you have joined the smaller marble chips together
these bigger marble chips have a smaller surface area, so reaction will be slower. The same carbon dioxide is produced as it has the same mass, but it takes longer for it to reach the maximum carbon dioxide produced. So it takes longer for the line to plateau or become flat. It is less steep to begin, showing it's slower than before.
 
does forming bonds need energy
no
 
what is specific heat capacity
the amount of energy needed to heat 1g of a substance by 1°C
 
what colour is anhydrous copper (ii) sulfate powder
white
 
in what reaction do reactants have more energy than products
exothermic reaction
 
how do we know if a catalyst is effective in the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide
if bubbles of oxygen gas are formed
 
what is the position of equilibrium
relative concentrations of reactants and products
 
when is the reaction exothermic
when the total energy released by making new bonds is higher than the total energy needed to break bonds
 
what is room temp. (don't use kelvin)
20°C
 
what does the energy released by the forward direction equal
energy absorbed by the backward direction
 
if energy is released by the forward direction then what is the backwards direction
energy is absorbed
 
state the △H, increased temperature change, energy of products and reactants and the type of reaction of

CH₄ + H₂O ⇌ CO + 3H₂
it's an endothermic reaction because the forward direction is endothermic, we know this because our H₂O and CH₄ molecules are no where to be seen, so they must've been broken and bond breaking is endothermic so our reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction has a positive △H because reactants have less energy than products because reactants lose energy to the products meaning the △H is positive. If temperature is increased the position of equilibrium shifts to the right. This is because an increase in temperature means the surroundings get hotter, an endothermic reaction absorbs heat, this will counteract the warmth. balancing it out, restoring equilibrium. So we want to shift the position of equilibrium to the endothermic direction. This is the right, so position of equilibrium shifts to the right. So more product is made.

describe the table and graph of the reaction between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid when we vary the concentration of sodium thiosulfate
the graph and table show that rate of reaction is directly proportional to concentration of sodium thiosulfate. This experiment can be repeated to show how temperature affects the rate of reaction, where we keep everything the same but just increase temperature.
 
what can't a catalyst affect in a reversible reaction
position of equilibrium
 
what is water's c
4.2 J/g °C
 
what happens when the conditions of an equilibrium reaction change
position of equilibrium changes to counteract the change in conditions in order to restore eqauilibrium
 
describe and explain how to increase the rate of reaction with a gas without increasing temperature
Increase the pressure of a gas, this means the same particles are present in a smaller volume which means there is less room for the gases to not react, so there are more particles per unit of volume as there is less volume for them to travel in. This makes more room for collisions so they will be more frequent which increases the rate of reaction.
 
in what scenario can a dynamic equilibrium take place and why
closed system so no substances can escape
 
what is the activation energy
minimum amount of energy a chemical reaction needs in order to take place
 
how does the position of equilibrium change when there's an increase in pressure of this reaction:

CH₄ ₍₉₎ + H₂O₍₉₎ ⇌ CO₍₉₎ + 3H₂ ₍₉₎
first, see what side has more molecules of gas. 4 molecules on right and 2 molecules on left. So if pressure increases, position of equilibrium shifts to the left. This is because an increase in pressure means there is less space for molecules, so if we produce less particles we can decrease the pressure, this cancels out the increase in pressure so equilibrium is restored and more reactant is produced because it has less gas molecules.
 
why do reactants have more energy than products sometimes
reactants give heat energy to surroundings which warms the surroundings
 
state the equation for △H
△H = Q/mol
 
if a reversible reaction is endothermic one way what will the other way be
exothermic
 
state the word equation between calcium carbonate and Hydrochloric acid in alphabetical order
calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid ─> calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide
 
what is the catalyst we use in the decomposition hydrogen peroxide
manganese (IV) oxide (MnO₂)

state the chemical equation for the production of magnesium sulfate from magnesium
Mg + CuSO₄ ̣̣─> MgSO₄ + Cu
 
what is the difference in energy known as in a reaction profile
△H
 
describe and explain how to increase the rate of reaction with a solid without increasing temperature
Increase the surface area of the solid, this makes the particles more exposed meaning they are distributed further throughout the solution. This results in more frequent collisions because there are more particles spread out. This increases the rate of reaction
 
what colour is sodium thiosulfate solution
colourless
 
describe and explain how to increase the rate of reaction with a liquid without increasing temperature
Increase the concentration of the liquid, this means more particles will be in the same volume, so there will be more particles per unit of volume, this produces more frequent collisions which increases the rate of reaction.

how can a reaction be endothermic if the total energy released equals the total absorbed
total energy needed to break all bonds is different for every compound
 
can reactions have more gas molecules on one side
yes
 
what can concentration be measured in
mol/dm³

g/dm³
 
what is the molar enthalpy change
enthalpy change per mole of a substance
 
is forming bonds endothermic or exothermic
exothermic
 
do all bonds have a bond energy
yes

describe how to carry out experiment between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid
1: draw a large cross onto a piece of paper
2: place a conical flask onto the cross
3: pour sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid into the beaker
4: observe the reaction directly above the flask
5: record the time taken for the cross to vanish
6: the cross vanishes because the yellow sulfur precipitate is formed
 
in an exothermic reaction, is △H negative or positive
negative
 
what colour are hydrated copper (ii) sulfate crystals
blue
 
what will happen if you carry out the calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid experiment but with half the concentration of acid
the volume and mass of acid stays the same it's just more diluted, otherwise the experiment would measure how much volume affects the rate of reaction. the marble chips need to be in excess, this reaction happens slower as they are less acid particles per unit of volume so the marble chip particles have to travel further to react so it takes longer. It produces exactly half the carbon dioxide as before and takes longer to reach the horizontal line which indicates the termination of the reaction.
 
if forward direction is endothermic what is the backwards direction
exothermic
