Do now! Can you stick the slides in your book please (cut round the edges, but don’t cut out each individual slide – it takes too long!).
Bond energies
Let’s make some molecules! One molecule of methane and two molecules of oxygen
Combustion of methane?
Combustion of methane CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g)
Combustion of methane CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g) All reactions involve bond breaking and bond making as the atoms “swap partners”
Bond breaking - endothermic Energy is always required to be inputted to break a bond. Bond breaking is always endothermic.
Bond making - exothermic Energy is always released when a bond is formed. Bond making is always exothermic.
Bond energies The energy released when a bond is formed or absorbed when it is broken is called the bond energy. e.g. the C-H bond in methane has a bond energy of 413 KJ/mol
Examples of bond energies BondBond energy KJ/mol H-H436 Cl-Cl242 H-Cl431 C-H413 C-C347 C-O335 O=O498
Energy level diagrams
Exothermic reaction The energy need to break the bonds is less than the energy released when new bonds are made “reaction path” energy CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) C + 4H + 4O CO 2(g) + 2H 2 O (l) Energy needed to break bonds Energy released by forming bonds Energy released
Endothermic reaction The energy need to break the bonds is more than the energy released when new bonds are made “reaction path” energy NH 4 NO 3(s) + H 2 O (l) Energy needed to break bonds Energy released by forming bonds NH 4 NO 3(l) Energy absorbed
ΔH – Energy change in a complete reaction If heat is given out, the reaction has lost energy so ΔH is negative
ΔH – Energy change in a complete reaction If heat is absorbed (reaction gets colder), the reaction has gained energy so ΔH is positive
Calculating ΔH CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g)
Calculating ΔH CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g) Bonds broken = 4 x (C-H) + 2 x (O=O) = 4 x x 498 = = 2658 KJ/mol
Calculating ΔH CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g) Bonds broken = 4 x (C-H) + 2 x (O=O) = 4 x x 498 = = 2658 KJ/mol Bonds made = 4 x (O-H) + 2 x (C=O) = 4 x x -805 = = KJ/mol
Calculating ΔH CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + CO 2(g) Bonds broken = 4 x (C-H) + 2 x (O=O) = 4 x x 498 = = 2658 KJ/mol Bonds made = 4 x (O-H) + 2 x (C=O) = 4 x x -805 = = KJ/mol Overall Energy change = = -808 KJ/mol (Exothermic)
