Hint
Answer
 
what is △H measured in usually
kJ/mol
 
does the bond energy ever change
yes, it changes slightly when it's bond is in a different compound
 
what 5 things would you increase to increase the rate of reaction, in ascending alphabetical order
catalyst, concentration of a liquid, pressure of gas, surface area of solid, temperature.
 
what happens when ammonium chloride is thermally decomposed
produces hydrogen chloride gas and nitrogen
 
what is calorimetry
measures amount of energy transferred in a chemical reaction
 
what is the molar enthalpy change
enthalpy change per mole of a substance
 
state the equation for moles
moles = mass/Mr
 
what does the position of equilibrium depend on
pressure and temperature of reactants
 
what can concentration be measured in
mol/dm³

g/dm³
 
describe and explain how to increase the rate of reaction without increasing the reactants abundance
Increase the temperature of the substance, this gives the particles more kinetic energy, allowing them to move faster which means they will collide with each other more frequently. Also a higher proportion of the collisions will be successful as the collision energy will be greater than or equal to the activation energy, this means the reaction can take place more often. All of this increases the rate of reaction very well which is why increasing the temperature is one of if not the most efficient way to increase the rate of reaction.
 
what does ventilated mean
an area that's air is well circulated
 
in an exothermic reaction, is △H negative or positive
negative
 
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.

how do we vary the concentration of sodium thiosulfate in the reaction between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid
the volumes of water and sodium thiosulfate are varied. but the total volume of the 2 need to be kept the same otherwise we are looking at the effect of volume on the rate of reaction, but we want to look at the effect of concentration. The results are recorded and placed on a table and graph.
 
do all bonds have a bond energy
yes
 
does breaking bonds need energy
yes
 
what can't a catalyst affect in a reversible reaction
position of equilibrium
 
in an endothermic reaction, is △H negative or positive
positive
 
why do the reactants bonds need to be broken in a chemical reaction
to make new bonds which forms the products
 
what is the activation energy
minimum amount of energy a chemical reaction needs in order to take place
 
what's a bond energy
strength of a chemical bond
 
does forming bonds need energy
no
 
state the word equation between calcium carbonate and Hydrochloric acid in alphabetical order
calcium carbonate + hydrochloric acid ─> calcium chloride + water + carbon dioxide

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
 
is breaking bonds endothermic or exothermic
endothermic
 
what does the energy released by the forward direction equal
energy absorbed by the backward direction
 
what can the units of rate of reaction be
g/min

g/sec

cm³/sec

cm³/min
 
how do we see what catalysts are the best at decomposing hydrogen peroxide
experiment with different catalysts
 
what happens when hydrated copper (ii) sulfate is thermally decomposed
forms water and anhydrous copper (ii) sulfate in an exothermic reaction
 
is the dehydration of copper (ii) sulfate exothermic
no
 
what is conservation of energy
energy isn't created or destroyed in a chemical reaction
 
what is the unit cm³ the same as
grams
 
what is a reaction profile a.k.a
energy level or energy profile
 
what is the difference in energy known as in a reaction profile
△H
 
state the equations for the rate of reaction
rate of reaction = mass of product formed / time

rate of reaction = mass of reactant used / time
 
state the word equation in the thermal decomposition of ammonium chloride
ammonium chloride ⇌ nitrogen + hydrogen chloride
 
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.
 
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 the enthalpy change
change in heat during a reaction at constant pressure
 
state the chemical equation between ethanol and oxygen
C₂H₅OH + 3O₂ ─> 2CO₂ + 3H₂O
 
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.
 
can reactions have more gas molecules on one side
yes
 
describe how to carry out the experiment between Hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate
marble chips react with hydrochloric acid to give calcium chloride solution, water and carbon dioxide gas.
1: put a beaker onto a mass balance
2: place hydrochloric acid in the beaker
3: place marble chips in the beaker containing HCl
4: put cotton wool instead of a bung on top of the beaker to stop acid spraying out and escaping, ruining the results and to allow carbon dioxide to escape so we can measure how much was lost
5: The change in mass of beaker is measured and put on a graph
6: the change in mass is the carbon dioxide escaping
7: This is because as marble chips react with the acid, carbon dioxide is released
8: the mass of carbon dioxide lost is measured and recorded at regular intervals
 
state the equation for △H
△H = Q/mol
 
what happens when hydrogen chloride and nitrogen are cooled
produces ammonium chloride
 
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.

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
 
what colour is ammonium chloride powder
white
 
what type of calcium carbonate should you use to get the slowest rate of reaction
one big chunk of calcium carbonate

how do you calculate △H using bond energies
Energy needed to break bonds - Energy released when forming bonds
