Inorganic pyrotechnics

No items found.

In this worksheet, students study two pyrotechnic reactions: glycerol oxidation by permanganate, and a thermite reaction. Students calculate yields, balance reactions and calculate Gibbs free energy to determine reaction spontaneity.

Learning outcomes

  • Determine the oxidation states of elements in different molecules.
  • Balance equations and analyse the observable effects of redox reactions.
  • Calculate the moles, mass, volume and theoretical yield of redox reaction components.
  • Calculate and interpret changes in enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs free energy.

"I found using Smart Worksheets easy and clear. The lecturers helped us to understand how to work with them. They gave us a lot of examples and questions, so we practised a lot through our course. When the exam took place, we all were confident enough to pass this part of the exam."
