Resource summary

Question 1

Question
In the equation Q = mcΔT, what does c stand for?
Answer
  • Energy released
  • Mass heated
  • Specific heat capacity
  • Change in temperature

Question 2

Question
In the equation Q = mcΔT, what does ΔT stand for?
Answer
  • Energy released
  • Mass heated
  • Specific heat capacity
  • Change in temperature

Question 3

Question
True or false? To find out the energy released per gram, we measure the change of mass in fuel and divide by that value.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question
True or false? To find the energy released per mole, we divide the energy released per gram by the relative formula mass of the substance.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 5

Question
Why do simple calorimeters not give an accurate reading for temperature change?
Answer
  • They do not have sophisticated data loggers
  • A lot of thermal energy is not transferred to the solution in the calorimeter
  • The calorimeter only allows pre-set temperature changes to occur

Question 6

Question
Which of these are features of a simple calorimeter?
Answer
  • Cup made of copper
  • Cup made of polystyrene
  • No lid is present
  • A lid is present

Question 7

Question
What would be the correct equation if 50g of acid was mixed with 50g of alkali causing a temperature rise of 9°C?
Answer
  • Q = 50 * 4.2 * 9
  • Q = 100 * 4.2 * 9
  • Q = 100 * 8.4 * 9
  • Q = 50 * 8.4 * 9

Question 8

Question
True or false? When measuring energy changes in solutions, we assume the solution behaves like water.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 9

Question
In an exothermic reaction, which side of the energy level diagram has more energy?
Answer
  • Reactants
  • Products

Question 10

Question
In an endothermic reaction, which side of the energy level diagram has more energy?
Answer
  • Reactants
  • Products

Question 11

Question
True or false? The energy change of a reaction is the difference between the maximum activation energy and the energy of the products.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 12

Question
How would an energy level diagram be different if a catalyst were present?
Answer
  • The activation energy would be higher
  • The activation energy would be lower
  • The reactants would have less energy
  • The products would have more energy

Question 13

Question
True or false? Bond breaking is exothermic.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 14

Question
What unit are bond energies measured in?
Answer
  • kJ
  • kJ/g
  • kJ/mol
  • kJ/cm^3

Question 15

Question
True or false? The bond energy needed to break a particular bond is the same as the bond energy released in forming that bond.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 16

Question
What is the ΔH of a reaction?
Answer
  • The bond energy of forming products - the bond energy of breaking reactants
  • The bond energy of breaking reactants - the bond energy of forming products
  • The bond energy of forming reactants - the bond energy of breaking products
  • The bond energy of breaking products - the bond energy of forming reactants

Question 17

Question
Which gas is being looked at as a possible alternative to petrol fuels?
Answer
  • Oxygen
  • Nitrogen
  • Hydrogen
  • Carbon dioxide

Question 18

Question
True or false? The only waste product of the combustion of hydrogen is water.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 19

Question
What do we use to combust hydrogen?
Answer
  • Internal combustion engine
  • Fuel cell
  • Downs cell

Question 20

Question
Which of these are disadvantages of using hydrogen as a fuel?
Answer
  • It is not very inflammable
  • There are safety problems due to flammability
  • It takes up a lot of storage space
  • At present we only have a limited supply
  • Hydrogen is toxic to humans
