For the following reactions, remember that ΔH < 0 for an exothermic reaction, ΔH > 0 for an endothermic reaction, ΔS > 0 when disorder increases, and ΔS < 0 when disorder decreases (order increases).
1. For the reaction N2(l) --> N2(g)
a. DH > 0, DS > 0 increase disorder, but break IMF (London forces) so endothermicb. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
2. For the reaction H2O(s) --> H2O (l)
a. DH > 0, DS > 0 increase disorder, but break IMF (H bonds) so endothermicb. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
3. For the reaction H2(g) --> 2H (g)
a. DH > 0, DS > 0 increase disorder, (1 gas molecule to 2 gas molecules) but break covalent bond so endothermicb. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
4. For the reaction 2C6H14(l) + 19O2(g) --> 12CO2(g) + 14H2O (g)
a. ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0b. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. DH < 0, DS > 0 increase disorder (more gas molecules in products), and form more stable products so exothermic - releases lots of heat
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
5. For the reaction 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) --> 6C6H12O6 (s) + O2(g)
a. ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0b. DH > 0, DS < 0 decrease disorder, and make more stable bonds in product so endothermic
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
When certain salts dissolve in water, the solution warms, but when other salts dissolve, the solution cools.
6. When MgCl2(s) dissolves in water, the solution warms. For the reaction MgCl2(s) --> MgCl2(aq)
a. ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0b. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. DH < 0, DS > 0 increase disorder, and exothermic
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
7. When K2SO4(s) dissolves in water, the solution cools. For the reaction K2SO4(s) -->K2SO4(aq)
a. DH > 0, DS > 0 increase disorder but endothermicb. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
The reaction MgCl2(s) --> MgCl2(aq) described in question 6, can be throught of as occuring in two very hypothetical steps.
STEP 1: MgCl2(s) --> Mg2+(g) + 2Cl-(g).
STEP 2: Mg2+(g) + 2Cl-(g) --> Mg2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
8. For STEP 1
a. DH > 0, DS > 0 increase disorder, but endothermic since break all ionic bondsb. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given
9. For STEP 2
a. ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0b. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. DH < 0, DS < 0 decrease disorder (go from gas to aq. phase), but exothermic since form many IMF (ion-water interactions)
e. insufficient information given
10. For the reaction NaF(s) + H2O(l) --> NaF(aq)
a. ΔH > 0, ΔS > 0b. ΔH > 0, ΔS < 0
c. ΔH < 0, ΔS > 0
d. ΔH < 0, ΔS < 0
e. insufficient information given since don't know if it is exothermic or endothermic
