  • Collision Theory: SABIS

    Collision Theory: SABIS Grade 10 SABIS 1) For a reaction to proceed, particles of reactants must collide with one another.2) Particles must collide with the minimum amount of energy needed to react called the activation energy. Such collisions are called effective or successful collisions.3) To increase the rate of a chemical reaction, it is required to increase the frequency of effective collisions, i.e increase the number of successful collisions per unit time.

  • Application on Hess’s Law medium

    Application on Hess’s Law medium Grade 10 SABIS Question 1: Given the following reactions and their respective enthalpy changes: C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ΔH1 = -393.5 kJ/mol H2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → H2O(l) ΔH2 = -286.0 kJ/mol C(s) + H2(g) → CH4(g) ΔH3 = -74.8 kJ/mol Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction: CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) Answer 1: To calculate the enthalpy change for the given reaction, we can use Hess's Law. By manipulating the given reactions, we can cancel out the common compounds and add the enthalpy changes. Multiplying reaction 1 by 2 gives: 2C(s) + 2O2(g) → 2CO2(g) 2ΔH1 = 2(-393.5 kJ/mol) = -787.0 kJ/mol Multiplying reaction 2 by 2 gives: 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l) 2ΔH2 = 2(-286.0 kJ/mol) = -572.0 kJ/mol Adding reactions 3, 2, and 1 gives: C(s) + H2(g) + 2H2(g) + O2(g) + 2O2(g) → CH4(g) + 2H2O(l) + 2CO2(g) ΔH3 + 2ΔH2 + 2ΔH1 = -74.8 kJ/mol + (-572.0 kJ/mol) + (-787.0 kJ/mol) = -1433.8 kJ/mol Since the given reaction is the reverse of the calculated reaction, the enthalpy change for the given reaction is the negative of the calculated value. ΔH = -(-1433.8 kJ/mol) = 1433.8 kJ/mol Question 2: Given the following reactions and their respective enthalpy changes: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g) ΔH1 = -198.2 kJ/mol S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g) ΔH2 = -296.8 kJ/mol 2S(s) + 3O2(g) → 2SO3(g) ΔH3 = -792.0 kJ/mol Calculate the enthalpy change for the reaction: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g) + 198.2 kJ Answer 2: To calculate the enthalpy change for the given reaction, we can use Hess's Law. By manipulating the given reactions, we can cancel out the common compounds and add the enthalpy changes. Multiplying reaction 2 by 2 gives: 2S(s) + 2O2(g) → 2SO2(g) 2ΔH2 = 2(-296.8 kJ/mol) = -593.6 kJ/mol Adding reactions 1 and 2 gives: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) + 2S(s) + 2O2(g) → 2SO3(g) + 2

  • Electrical Work

    Electrical Work Grade 10 SABIS Electric work is the energy supplied by an electric current. In thermochemistry, it refers to the energy transfer that occurs during an electrochemical reaction or when electrical energy is used to perform work. To understand electric work, let's consider an everyday example: charging a mobile phone. When you connect your phone to a charger, electrical energy flows from the power source to the phone's battery. This energy transfer allows the battery to store electrical energy, which can later be used to power the phone and perform various tasks. Similarly, when you plug in an electrical device such as a laptop or a blender, electric work is done to power the device and enable its functionality. The electrical energy supplied through the power cord allows the device to operate and perform the desired tasks. In thermochemistry, electric work is involved in various electrochemical processes. For instance, during electrolysis, an electric current is passed through a solution or molten compound, causing a chemical reaction to occur. This reaction is driven by the electric work performed, leading to the separation or deposition of substances. Consider the process of electroplating, where a thin layer of metal is deposited onto an object. By passing an electric current through a solution containing metal ions, the metal ions are reduced and form a solid metal layer on the object's surface. The electrical work is responsible for driving this electrochemical process. Electric work is also crucial in battery technology. When a battery is used to power a device, such as a flashlight or a remote control, electric work is done as the chemical reactions inside the battery generate an electric current. This current supplies the necessary energy for the device to function. In summary, electric work in thermochemistry refers to the energy transfer that occurs during electrochemical reactions or when electrical energy is used to perform work. Examples include charging a mobile phone, operating electrical devices, electrolysis, electroplating, and battery-powered devices. Understanding electric work helps explain the energy transformations involved in various electrochemical processes and the role of electrical energy in powering everyday devices.
