A2 Chemistry OCR Definitions: Rates, acids and enthalpy
  1. Enthalpy change
    1. Enthalpy change of atomisation
      1. The enthalpy change when 1 mole of gaseous atoms forms the element at 298K, 101kPa
      2. 1st Ionisation energy
        1. The energy needed to remove 1 electron from every atom in 1 mole of gaseous atoms, to form 1+ ions
          1. 2nd Ionisation energy
            1. Energy needed to remove the second electron from every atom in 1 mole of gaseous 1+ ions
          2. Lattice enthalpy
            1. The enthalpy change when 1 mole of an ionic compound is formed from its gaseous ions, at 298K, 101kPa
            2. Enthalpy change of formation
              1. The enthalpy change when 1 mole of a compound is formed from its elements, at 298K, 101 kPa
              2. Standard enthalpy of electron affinity
                1. Enthalpy change when 1 electron is gained by every atom in 1 mole of gaseous atoms, to form 1- ions
                  1. NB: 1st EA always exothermic, 2nd & 3rd always endothermic
                  2. Enthalpy change of solution
                    1. Enthalpy change when 1 mole of an ionic compound dissolves in sufficient water to make a very dilute solution, at 298K, 101kPa
                      1. NB: Exothermic = Soluble
                      2. Enthalpy change of hydration
                        1. The enthalpy change when 1 mole of gaseous ions dissolves in sufficient water to form a very dilute solution
                        2. Enthalpy of neutralisation
                          1. Enthalpy change when enough acid/alkali is neutralised to make 1 mole H2O
                        3. Hess' Law
                          1. The enthalpy change going from reactant to product is independent of the route taken
                          2. Acids/bases

                                1. Proton acceptor
                                2. Strong acid
                                  1. One that ionises fully
                                  2. Weak acid
                                    1. One that only partially ionises
                                    2. Conjugate acid/base pairs
                                      1. A conjugate acid becomes its own conjugate base when it gives a H+ to another base. Vice versa for base
                                        1. NB: If conj. acid is v/ strong, conj. base is v/ weak
                                      2. Kw
                                        1. Ionic product of water
                                          1. NB: 1x10-4

                                                1. Weak acids which have 2 colours (one for acid, one for its conj. base)
                                                2. Buffer
