Hey, for 6:42, the combustion of ethene equation, I can't balance it so that it goes to 2CO2 + 3H2O. I'm looking at: C2H4 + 3O2 --> 2CO2 + 2H2O, but you have down 3H2O instead. The three waters is balanced for combustion of ethanol, but I can't balance it for the combustion of ethene. What am I missing here? I'm getting the right relationships (tried it using the equations method) for the deltaH's, but I'm not sure what/how to put down that third equation in the cycle. Help?
HI! Does the rule Delta H = 0 (mentioned at 3:45) not apply to cycle at 4:43? I understand how the clockwise = counter clockwise rule works here but if we were to use the Delta H = 0 rule here wouldn't "?" be the opposite of the sum of -199 + -4163. Or by the Delta H = 0 rule does it mean clockwise = counter clockwise (and the difference is 0)? Thanks so much for your videos, and for your response in advance.
yup, make sure you can use your own calculator! If not break the calculation up into smaller bits and be clear on the exam with your working for partial credit.
Hello Mr Thornley! I was just wondering, would we need to know how to use the enthalpy cycles aswell, or are we okay to just know other methods of working out enthalpies? Thanks :)
hello! for your answer at 5:16 shouldnt it be positive +4362 since the calculations for the clockwise values equal negative -4362 and the Delta H value needs to add up to 0?
spotyheart7 clockwise = anticlock wise -4362 = -4362 ORclockwise - anticlockwise = 0, -4362 - - 4362 = 0 ORgo around clockwise adding up the numbers that are clockwise, subtracting the numbers that are anticlockwise.-199 + -4163 -X =0
Do you get time to do this videos from the school you work at? If so, I hope they never stop! Your videos make chemistry so much easier... In fact, you boiled down 2 hours worth of teaching in 7min and I got every bit of it, whereas in class it sounded like chinese. Thank you so much! (side note: what do people who speak chinese say?)
Hey Love your videos, doing Chem myself and find them really helpful! In the medium one, I did the calculation a couple of times and the answer comes out to be 1415.1. This just might be me, if your answer is correct could you comment why?
I got the -2381kJ..it could perhaps be how you're keying the answer into your calculator because I got the same answer as you first time around... but doing a second time as follows: (-680x2)+(-537x2)+52.3 and I got the right answer.. I think the 2 outside the brackets threw my calculator off

Been 8 years and there is still no better video than this on Hess law.
Sir Richard, saviour of IB chem students everywhere!
I have final exams in 2 days, and as usual you're the hero. (Just completed watching videos of topics which are troubling me, chemistry and chill 😄🤠)

I am in chem class right now, I dont get anything but I get 100%s in tests thanks to your videos.
IB exam in 5 hours and gonna be dubs thanks to ur videos over the past 2 years 🤟
Thank you so much for all your videos. I used to get 2 and 3 in SL chem before, but when I found you on youtube, i am now getting 6 and 7!!!!!!!
Wow - glad I can help!
Richard Thornley I mean in fact, you are already extremely famous for IB Chemistry learners around the world
a legend in my own lunchtime!
you have, officially, saved my life.
another life saved!
Thanks for saving my life Mr. Thornley, id love to play some cs with you just to hang about. Thanks for everything!
i am terrible at CS - i get sniped within 2s every time - TF2 - I am Chemistryrich
Richard Thornley why are you the coolest teacher ever omg
I got the answer for evil wooohooo
duuuuuuuude youre a boss. thank you so much I'm gonna pass my midterm today!
Oh my ! If i pass my Chemistry finals it's all because of you Mr. Thornley!
update? lol
the purple arrow is a little too far left-- you also need to bring the H2O down - then it works
@ridhajawad You need all 3 ways - equations, cycle and energy diagram
Recently they marked down papers that did not use a cycle.
RT
awesome videos!
But in the medium cycle one. the (1/2O2 / -2/3O2 etc.) do we have to know the meaning of them or how to draw them on the cycle?
Thank you so much. I missed a class day and didn't understand anything at all! but this helps so much! thanks!

Sometimes the IB insists on uses the nasty triangles (cycles) - I sometimes have trouble with them too, but they tend to use the same type each time.

Same and I did exactly what he did as well.
I think there was just a simple problem of summation in the video.
In regards to the evil one one what do we do with the extra oxygen mole? Don’t we end up with 2.5 moles?
The 3O2 on the arrows is in addition to the lone "O" in the equation - it all balances.
hi! do we have to be able to solve through the energy cycle way? I only know how to do it the first way, should I learn the other way as well..
I wanna ask what is the difference between the heat formation of a compound and its heat content
I don't like the triangle way but a little while back the IB insisted that it be used , and took off points for the sentence way.
I wrote 53.7 but meant to write 537 (i corrected this verbally) - I will fix it with a note now!
Sir, in the evil one i got -535.4 KJ/mol.
and u got -452.6.
its my bad? i dont know.
and if you fail we can blame your teacher - hehehe!

(side note: what do people who speak chinese say?)
90.4 plus 90.4 plus 46 plus 46 -241.8 - 241.8 - 241.8 = -452.6
It should be :
90.4 plus 90.4 minus 46 minus 46 -241.8 - 241.8 - 241.8 = -636.6

5:10 I don’t understand, if the enthalpies are supposed to add up to zero, the why isn’t the new enthalpy found +4362 instead of minus?
They add up zero BUT you need to account for the arrow directions too. An easier way is clockwise arrows = anti clockwise arrows
@@ibchemvids thanks for the reply was 2 years ago. HAHA. Hey check my channel out plz its daniel chuhan (not this one)
AAAAMMMMAAAZZZZZIIIINNNGGG
You can replace my teacher
if you double the first you will have 1/2 O and if you triple the last you you will have 3/2O well how does it work then ???
Oh my god you are saving me. thank you
at 03:43, all arrow are facing the same direction, isn't that counterintuitive?
That it may be - but it is possible.
@nawedy The school gives me about 3-4 hours off a week to do these - not enough really but it keeps me amused !
The truly evil part in the evil one was the decimal looking like a multiplication.... I spent like 30 minutes on that
sorry about that!
