Pregunta Respuesta
First ionisation energy energy needed to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms
relative atomic mass average mass of an atom of an element compared to 1/12 of one atom of Carbon-12
second ionisation energy energy needed to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of unipositive ions
empirical formula simplest whole number ratio in which atoms of each element are found in a compound
covalent bond pair of electrons shared between two atoms
metallic bond attraction between a cation and a sea of de-localised electrons
electronegativity the ability of an atom to attract electrons towards itself in a covalent bond
homologous series series of compounds with the same functional group but differs by -CH2 each time
structural isomerism same molecular formula, different structural fomula
chain isomerism same molecular formula, different carbon arrangement
positional isomerism same molecular formula, functional group in a different position
functional group isomerism same molecular formula, different functional group
initiation (free radical substitution) production of free radicals breaks homolytically photochemical reaction
propagation (free radical subs) reaction between a free radical and a molecule to make another free radical
termination (free radical subs) reaction between two free radicals making an unreactive molecule
standard enthalpy of formation enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is formed from its constituent atoms in their standard states, in standard conditions
mean bond enthalpy standard molar enthalpy change of bond dissociation is the energy required to break a specific covalent bond. this varies from compound to compound, so an average is used
standard enthalpy of combustion enthalpy change when one mole of a compound is completely burnt in oxygen under standard conditions
enthalpy change heat energy change measured at constant pressure
Hess's law the enthalpy change of a reaction is independent on the route (pathway from reactants to products)
disproportionation redox reaction in which the oxidation number of some atoms of a particular element increase and others decrease
geometrical isomer same structural formula, but bonds arranged differently in space
inductive effect the effect on electron density in one portion of a molecule due to electo/nucleophiles elsewhere. causes dipoles and effects stablity
