  1. Question 1

    The sum of all the possible potential and kinetic energies of a system is called its:

    • AEntropy
    • BHeat content (enthalpy)
    • CActivation energy
    • DLattice energy
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    The text defines the sum of all possible potential and kinetic energies of a system as its heat content or enthalpy (H).

  2. Question 2

    A chemical reaction or physical change in which heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings is called:

    • AExothermic process
    • BEndothermic process
    • CIsothermal process
    • DAdiabatic process
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    The text states that a process in which heat is absorbed by the system from the surroundings is an endothermic process.

  3. Question 3

    Which relation is correct for an endothermic process?

    • AHP < HR
    • BHP > HR
    • CHP = HR
    • DHP = 0
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    In an endothermic process the enthalpy of products is greater than that of reactants (HP > HR) as heat is absorbed.

  4. Question 4

    A process in which heat is released to the surroundings is called:

    • AEndothermic process
    • BExothermic process
    • CIsothermal process
    • DAdiabatic process
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    A process in which heat is given out to the surroundings is called an exothermic process (HP < HR).

  5. Question 5

    The energy barrier that must be overcome by reactant molecules is called:

    • AEnthalpy of reaction
    • BEnergy of activation
    • CLattice energy
    • DBond energy
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    The energy barrier required by reactant molecules to react is called the energy of activation.
