Three Characteristics of Enthalpy |
|
Definition

|
|
Term
|
Definition
If a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, ΔH for the reaction will be equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Hess's Law provides a useful means of calculating energy changes that are difficult to measure directly. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1. Look at the overall reaction for which you want the enthalpy change. Decide how to rearrange the given equations.
2. If an equation is multiplies by a coefficient, the ΔH value is multiplied too.
3. If a reaction is reversed, the sign on ΔH is also reversed.
4. Check to be sure that everything cancels except what you want. |

What does a -ΔG tell you? |
|
Definition
it means the reaction is spontaneous. The process can do work. The magnitude of ΔG indicates the maximum amount of work that can be obtained from a process. (Think: a gallon of gas can only do so much work before it runs out) |
|
|
Term
What does a +ΔG tell you? |
|
Definition
It means the process is nonspontaneous. The surroundings must do work on the system to make it go. The magnitude of ΔG indicates the theoretical minimum of work needed to drive the process. |
