you deserve to be more popular. I'm surprised to see that u only have 910 subs?!! U are very underrated!! Keep up the good work

I'm writing chemistry gce a level practicals tomorrow and this vid just taught me a whole school year study❤

Hi, I love your videos. Just one question, at 16:13 you used q/n to get delta H, but in the marking scheme, they used qxn to get delta H. Can you explain this for me please. Thanks!

I can't comment on the mark scheme you've got for the question you're using... but delta H is definitely calculated as q/n That makes sense if you think about DH being in kJmol-1 and Q is in kJ and n is in moles, so we calculate doing kJ/mol which is the less scientific way of writing kJmol-1 Qxn would give the units of kJmol (without a -1) You'll never have to do qxn You can do q= n x DH though

Quick question When determining the moles (n) to find the enthalpy change, I know that you’re supposed to find the moles of the limiting factor in all enthalpy changes *except* enthalpy change of neutralisation where you’re supposed to take the number of moles of water formed. Is that right?

That's a great question! You're right about the limiting factor and yes you are right about the acids too... unless they say specifically for example "...per mole of acid". Thanks for the comment! 😀

55:15 sir I don't understand why you don't need to use the negative sign, we didn't ditch it in the previous answers

Energy is a scalar quantity, so Q shouldn't ever really have units. Since DH was negative that means its exothermic so the DT will be positive

Do you have any videos on forming equations, in the energetics topic ?

I've made this video about enthalpy changes generally, including enthalpy of formation. kzread.info/dash/bejne/eXhoq7CBeq-2gM4.html Enthalpy of formation starts at about 18 minutes

With Q=mc delta T, you get Q in joules. So you then need to convert it to KJ to divide by the moles to get the enthalpy change. How come in the last example, when basically doing the steps in reverse, once you found Q by using the moles, why didn't you convert it from KJ to J, before dividing by mc? Because when you multiply the enthalpy by the moles, that gives you Q in KJ, so wouldn't you need to convert it into J before putting it into the mct equation? I'm a little bit confused by this part.

Good question. It also depends on the units for mass as well. If mass is in kg then the units of q are kJ. This works in both directions as well, so if you use q=mcT and m is in kg q automatically is in kJ

hi sir, great vid!! im just confused. I was taught that the line of best fit needs to either touch all of the point or at least have an equal amount of points on each side. can you please clear up any confusions for me :))

Hi, thanks for the feedback. You've not been taught the wrong thing! This is true for the majority of Graphs That's broadly the case here as well. It's just that with an extrapolation graph, there is a certain 'expected shape' and so we never use the points 'on the way up' for our best fit line. Also, watching my video back again, my data wasn't the easiest/most clear cut for a best fit line. Exams use clear and obvious data usually!

i dont understand how to determine the limiting factor and one that is in excess - is it just the one that has less moles is the limiting factor, so u use that to work out the enthalpy change

@chemistrytutor

Good question... you're right that is the way. The only difference could come when the equation has a 2:1 ratio (or just not 1:1) and you see which of your moles is too small to make that ratio

Just a quick question.. why is it that some enthalpy changes cannot be measured directly? Ive come across this question several times and it never really did make any sense to me 😅

@chemistrytutor

Жыл бұрын

It depends on the situation, but generally it's because you can't be sure that the equation will happen exactly as it says. So for instance, for CuSO4 + 5H2O --> CuSO4.5H2O How can you be sure that the anhydrous copper sulfate has been hydrated by precisely 5 waters per CuSO4? Answer = you can't
