Energy Level Diagrams - Worksheet

The document discusses energy level diagrams and how they relate to chemical reactions. It explains that energy level diagrams plot the change in energy against the progress of a reaction as reactants turn into products. The document also describes how reactions require an activation energy to break bonds in reactants and form bonds in products, and whether reactions release energy (exothermic) or absorb energy (endothermic) depending on the energy levels of reactants versus products.

Energy Level Diagrams.

The change in ___________ can be plotted againstthe


progress of a reaction, as the __________ turn into
____________.

E____thermic

E____thermic
Going from __________ to the top of the curve,you are
going up the energy scale.Energy ( as __________) is
being put in to break bonds in the __________.
At the top of the curve, the bonds in the reactants have
been ___________.The amount of energy put in to break
these bondsis called the ____________ energy.
The _____________ energyis the ___________ amount of
energy needed for the __________ to occur.
A __________ may work by lowering the activation energy
for a reaction.

Going from the top of the curve to the products,you are


going down the energy scale.Energy ( as ________ ) is
given out as bonds form in the __________.
The reactants are higher up the energy scale than are the
products.The amount of energy (heat) you need to put in
(the __________ energy)is less than the amount of energy
(heat) you get out.This is a typical _____________
reaction.
The difference in energy levels between the reactants and
the productsis given the symbol  (pronounced 'delta
H').

This is the amount of heat given out (or taken in) during
the reaction.For an exothermic reaction, H is negative.For
an endothermic reaction, H is positive.
