This thermodynamic cycle describes the formation of an ionic compound M2 X from a metal element M and nonmetal element X in their standard states. Use it to answer the questions in the table below. 800.- 700. 600. 500. 2M+ (x)+2+x(x) 2M()+(s) 21(x)+=(x) 2M (8) + x²(8) 400.- enthalpy 300.- 2M (kJ/mol) 200. 100. 0. -100.- 2M 3w+50 M₁x(s) What is the lattice enthalpy of M₂X? What is the formation enthalpy of M₂X? Suppose the heat of sublimation of M were bigger, and the electron affinity of X were smaller. Would MX be more stable? Or less? kJ/mol kJ/mol More stable. Less stable. It is impossible to tell without more information.
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
