CHEM 11200 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Gibbs Free Energy
Document Summary
H = h products - h reactants. @ 25 degrees celsius and 1 atm (pressure) The amount of energy required to make one mole of a compound from its constituent elements. Note: o 2 does not have a heat of formation but o does because. The sum of the energies absorbed or given off in all the steps will be the same for the overall reaction. Energy is needed to break a bond. Energy is released when a bond is created. S = s products - s reactants. S is positive when order decreases and s is negative when order increases. Gases have more entropy than solids or liquids. Particles in solution have more entropy than solids. Two moles have more entropy than one mole. S forward and backward have the same magnitude. Energy that"s available to do useful work from a chemical reaction.
