Learning outcomes
This page covers learning objectives for this activity.
The following learning outcomes will be addressed in this section.
Classify chemical reactions as endothermic or exothermic, predict whether they increase or decrease in entropy, and then finally predict and classify reactions as spontaneous or non-spontaneous
Whether something will happen is closely and deeply linked with entropy – which is a thermodynamic measure of how energy is distributed. It must always increase. Here we will learn a bit more about how that value is calculated, which leads us towards finding out if a reaction will happen or not.
