Enthalpy Changes and Reactions Explained

  • Enthalpy change in a reaction from A to D is delta h, but if A is made from B first, the enthalpy change is delta h1, then B from C is delta h2, and finally D from C is delta h3.
  • Net enthalpy change in a reaction is the sum of individual enthalpy changes.
  • Standard Enthalpy of Reaction is Enthalpy of Products minus Enthalpy of Reactants in their standard states.
  • Standard state refers to a substance's complete form at a specific temperature, like H2 gas for hydrogen at room temperature.
  • Enthalpy of Fusion, Vaporization, and Sublimation represent phase changes in substances.
  • Standard Enthalpy of Formation (Delta F) is the enthalpy change when one mole of a substance forms from its elements in their standard states.
  • Formula for calculating enthalpy of reaction using Standard Enthalpy of Formation: Products' Enthalpy - Reactants' Enthalpy.
  • Enthalpy of Atomization is converting a molecule into its constituent atoms in the gaseous state.
  • Band Enthalpy is the energy required to break a bond, with the enthalpy of atomization and bond enthalpy being equal for diatomic molecules.
  • Enthalpy of Solution is the enthalpy change when a substance dissolves infinitely in water, equal to Lattice Enthalpy plus Hydration Enthalpy.
