Thermochemistry Chapters 16 and 17 Thermodynamics – the study of energy and energy transfer. Thermochemistry – the study of energy involved in chemical reactions.
Law of Conservation Of Energy – the total energy in the universe is constant. - energy cannot be created or destroyed. ∆ Energy Universe = 0 Energy CAN: - be transferred from one substance to another - or be converted into various forms.
In order to study energy changes – we need to define what part of the universe we are dealing with. System - the part of the universe that is being studied or observed. Surroundings – everything else in the universe. Ex. In this chemical rxn – the system is the reactants and products in the flask - the surroundings is the flask, the student, the air, and the hand holding the flask.
Therefore:Universe = System + Surroundings ∆ E universe = ∆ E system + ∆ E surroundings = 0 This relationship is known as the 1 st Law of Thermodynamics: “Any change in the energy of a system is accompanied by an equal and opposite change in the energy of the surroundings” ∆ E system = - ∆ E surroundings the energy the system gains = the energy the surroundings loses OR - ∆ E system = ∆ E surroundings the energy the system loses = the energy the surroundings gains
Depending on how the system is separated from its surroundings, systems are defined in three different ways: Open System – system is open to the surroundings – both matter and energy can be exchanged between the two. Ex. A reaction in an open beaker. Closed System – a system where energy can move between the system and the surroundings – however, matter cannot move. Ex. A reaction in a stoppered Erlenmeyer flask. Isolated System – a system is completely isolated from its surroundings – neither matter nor energy is exchanged between the two. Ex. A reaction in a calorimeter.
Types Of Energy 1)Kinetic Energy - energy in motion (always accompanied by a temperature change) 2)Potential Energy – energy that is stored (changes in state and chemical rxns) The SI unit for both types of energy is the joule (J). One joule is equal to 1 kg∙m 2 /s 2 Kinetic Energy is measured in J. Potential Energy is measured in kJ.
Temperature Change and Heat Temperature, T, is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles that make up a system. Temperature is measured in either Celsius degrees ( o C) or kelvins (K). Temperature change in a substance is an indication of a change in kinetic energy. - Symbolized by ∆T ∆T = T f – T i change in temp = temp. final – temp. initial
Transfer of Kinetic Energy Heat, q, refers to the transfer of kinetic energy between objects with different temperatures. It is measured in joules. When a substance absorbs heat, the average kinetic energy of the particles increases – therefore the temperature increases. Reconsidering the 1 st Law of Thermodynamics: q system = -q surroundings The heat the system gains is equal to the heat the surroundings loses. OR - q system = q surroundings The heat the system loses is equal to the heat the surroundings absorbs.
When substances with different temperatures come in contact, kinetic energy is transferred from the particles of the warmer substance to the particles of the cooler substance. Heat Transfers: - from hot chocolate to your mouth - from hot chocolate to the mug - from the mug to your fingers - from the hot chocolate to the air You blow on the hot chocolate - moves cool air over the hot chocolate and the hot chocolate transfers heat to the air.
Factors In Heat Transfer
Temperature and Energy Transfer Heat moves from greater to lower temperatures The greater the heat difference the greater the energy transfer Mass and Energy Transfer Mass is directly related to heat transfer. Is used in calculations – designated symbol m. Types of Substances and Energy Transfer In calculating heat transfer, we do not use the type of substance as a variable, but rather we use a variable that reflects the individual nature of different substances – the specific heat capacity.
Specific Heat Capacity (c) - the amount of energy required to change one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. This reflects how well a substance stores energy. Units are J/g∙ o C A substance with a large specific heat capacity can absorb and release more energy that a substance with a smaller specific heat capacity. Water has a very large specific heat capacity = J/g∙ o C See Table on Page 632
Calculating Heat Transfer Three variables determine heat transfer: 1) temperature 2) mass 3) specific heat capacity Mathematical Relationship:

Basic Calorimetry Calorimetry the technological process of measuring the changes in kinetic energy. uses a calorimeter Calorimeter – a basic calorimeter contains water, a thermometer, and an isolated system. We will use a coffee-cup calorimeter or a Poor Man’s Calorimeter
Basic Principles of Calorimetry The system is isolated – no heat is exchanged with the surroundings outside the calorimeter. The amount of heat exchanged with the calorimeter itself is small enough to be ignored. If something dissolves in or reacts with the calorimeter water, the solution still retains the properties of water. specific heat capacity and density
Therefore: q system = -q surroundings The heat the system absorbs is equal to the heat that the surroundings released. OR - q system = q surroundings The heat the system releases is equal to the heat the surroundings absorbs. Sample Problem on Page 663 Page #1-4
16.2 Enthalpy Changes Now we will consider changes in the potential energy of a system.... Enthalpy (∆H) refers to the potential energy change of a system during a process such as a chemical or physical change. measured at constant pressure units are kJ/mol
Enthalpy Changes in Chemical Rxns The enthalpy change of a chemical reaction represents the difference between the potential energy of the products and the potential energy of the reactants. In chemical rxns, potential energy changes result from the breaking or the forming of bonds. A chemical bond is caused by the attraction between electrons and the nuclei of the atoms. Energy is stored in bonds. ▫ Breaking a bond will require energy. ▫ Creating a bond will release energy.
Net Absorption of Energy = Endothermic Rxn Net Release of Energy = Exothermic Rxn
Chemists define the total energy of a substance at a constant pressure as its enthalpy, H. They use relative enthalpy of the reactants and the products to determine the change in enthalpy that accompanies the reaction. Consider: N 2 + O 2 → 2NO triple bonds double bonds single bonds This rxn absorbs energy - less energy is released when NO bonds are formed than the energy required to break the double and the triple bonds
Representing Enthalpy Changes ∆H Rxn - enthalpy of reaction - enthalpy change of a rxn - dependent on conditions of temperature and pressure - it is the energy change associated with the reaction of 1 mole of a compound with another compound. ∆H o Rxn will represent the enthalpy of rxn at SATP (SATP = 1 bar, 25 o C) ** people will say “heat of reaction” ** O means nought – means standard conditions or standard state
3 Ways To Represent Enthalpy Changes 1. Thermochemical Equation - a balanced chemical equation that indicates the amount of heat absorbed or released in a chemical rxn. ENDOTHERMIC - because heat is absorbed in an endothermic rxn, the heat term is included on the reactant side of the equation kJ + MgCO 3(s) → MgO (s) + CO 2(g) EXOTHERMIC - because heat is released in an exothermic rxn, the heat term is included on the product side of the equation. H 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) → H 2 O ( l ) kJ
2. Separate Equation Method - for this method, the heat term is included on the right side of the equation. - the sign for the heat term must be included to show when the equation is endothermic or exothermic. ENDOTHERMIC MgCO 3(s) → MgO (s) + CO 2(g) ∆H o = kJ EXOTHERMIC H 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) → H 2 O ( l ) ∆H o = kJ
3.Enthalpy Diagrams Enthalpy Diagram for an Exothermic Rxn You should always include: Title Correct graph reactants products y-axis x-axis ∆H
Types of Reactions In thermochemistry : - formation - combustion - melting - freezing - condensation - vaporization - solution
Standard Molar Enthalpy Of Formation In a formation reaction, a substance is formed from its elements in their standard states. ∆H o form = standard molar enthalpy of formation - the quantity of energy that is absorbed or released when 1 mol of a substance is formed directly from its elements in their *standard states. - it is a value – a number. * The standard state of an element is its most stable form at SATP.
Formation Equation for water (liquid) Thermochemical Equation: 1 H 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) → 1 H 2 O ( l ) Separate Equation Method: 1 H 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) → 1 H 2 O ( l ) ∆H o form = kJ kJ
Standard Molar Enthalpy of Combustion In a combustion equation, a substance burns in oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. ∆H o comb = the molar enthalpy of combustion - the quantity of energy that is absorbed or released when 1 mol of a compound burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. - reactants and products should be in their standard states.
Combustion of Propane Thermochemical Equation: 1 C 3 H 8 (g) + 5 O 2 (g) → 3 CO 2 (g) + 4 H 2 O (l) kJ Separate Equation Format: 1C 3 H 8 (g) + 5 O 2 (g) → 3 CO 2 (g) + 4 H 2 O (l) ∆H o comb = kJ Combustion Of Butane Thermochemical Equation: 1 C 4 H 10 (g) + O 2 (g) → 4 CO 2 (g) + 5 H 2 O (l) kJ Separate Equation Format: 1C 4 H 10 (g) + O 2 (g) → 4 CO 2 (g) + 5 H 2 O (l) ∆H o comb = kJ Page 643 #15-18
Calculating Enthalpy Changes Use Stoichiometry!!! How much heat is released when g of methane forms from its elements? g CH 4 change from use the molar enthalpy grams to moles (obtained from the chart) kJ was released.
How much heat is released when g of methane combusts completely? g CH 4 Page 645 #19-23 Remember that: at SATP: 1 mol of a gas = 22.4 L of the gas 1L = 1000 mL
Enthalpy Changes and Changes in State Changes in state involve changes in the potential energy of a system. Changes that you know: melting, freezing, etc. The temperature of the system undergoing the change remains constant but because the energy is being absorbed or released as heat, the temperature of the surroundings often changes.
In general, the energy change associated with changes in state are much smaller than those of chemical changes. ▫ Why? Intermolecular forces (L.D., D.D., H.B.) are easier to break than intramolecular forces (ionic, covalent, metallic bonds). ▫ State changes for water animation State changes for water animation ▫ Solid changing state Solid changing state
Representing Enthalpy Changes For Changes In State ∆H o melt = the molar enthalpy of melting (fusion) - the quantity of energy that is absorbed when 1 mol of a compound changes state from a solid to a liquid. Ex. ∆H o melt = 27.2 kJ 27.2 kJ + NaCl (s) → NaCl ( l ) ∆H o fre = the molar enthalpy of freezing - the quantity of energy that is released when 1 mol of a compound changes state from a liquid to a solid. Ex. ∆H o fre = kJ NaCl ( l ) → NaCl (s) kJ
∆H o vap = the molar enthalpy of vaporization - the quantity of energy that is absorbed when 1 mol of a compound changes state from a liquid to a gas. 207 kJ + NaCl ( l ) → NaCl (g) ∆H o cond = the molar enthalpy of condensation - the quantity of energy that is released when 1 mol of a compound changes state from a gas to a liquid. NaCl (g) → NaCl ( l ) kJ Note: ∆H o melt = - ∆H o fre ∆H o vap = - ∆H o cond See Table 16-4 on Page 647
∆H o soln = the molar enthalpy of solution - the quantity of energy that is absorbed or released when 1 mol of a compound dissolves in a solvent. Dissolving can be exothermic or endothermic. Manufacturers use this information to make hot packs and/or cold packs. Hot Packs – process of dissolving is exothermic Cold Packs – process of dissolving is endothermic Ex kJ + NH 4 NO 3 (s) → NH 4 NO 3 (aq) Ex. CaCl 2 (s) → CaCl 2 (aq) kJ
Calorimetry for Potential Energy Changes We can re-look at the theory for calorimetry when considering state changes and chemical rxns. Consider Melting Ice: When a measured amount of hot water is placed in a calorimeter and ice is added to it... heat travels from the water into the ice. the energy the ice absorbs is used to melt the ice. - q water = + q ice The heat the water releases is equal to the heat the ice absorbs Better: The heat the water releases is equal to the enthalpy the ice absorbs
Water undergoes a kinetic energy change (there is a temperature change) we can use q = mc∆T Then, - q water = + q ice Ice undergoes a potential energy change (no temperature change) we can use stoichiometry. Note: We do not mass the ice in an analytical balance. Take the mass of water when the lab is finished and subtract the initial mass of water and you will obtain the mass of ice that melted.

Ice is added to the water until it reaches 0.0 o C. At that point, all the ice is removed and the water is re-measured in a graduated cylinder. The final volume of water is mL. Calculate the molar enthalpy of melting. = 6.13kJ/mol
Dissolving A Substance When a measured amount of water is placed in a calorimeter and a solid substance is dissolved in it... Energy will travel from the water to the solid or from the solid to the water. Exothermic Dissolving the heat the water gains is equal to the enthalpy the process of dissolving releases. Endothermic Dissolving the heat the water loses is equal to the enthalpy the process of dissolving absorbed.
Exothermic Dissolving + q water = - q soln Endothermic Dissolving - q water = + q soln Use stoichiometry – using the mass of the substance dissolved – to determine the molar enthalpy of solution for the substance.

Calculating Molar Enthalpy of Rxn Coffee-cup calorimetry can be used to study changes in dilute aqueous solutions. The water in the calorimeter absorbs (or provides) the energy that is released (or absorbed) by the chemical rxn. + q soln = - q rxn or - q soln = + q rxn Same calculations as melting and solution... We just need to determine the limiting reagent when calculating the molar enthalpy.

Heating and Cooling Curves Chemists use heating and cooling curves to represent temperature and phase changes in substances. Temperature goes on the y-axis Time goes on the x-axis Key points – boiling points, melting points, freezing points, etc. Flat lines - shows a state change - potential energy changes - no temperature change Slanted lines – shows temperature change - changes in kinetic energy Curves do not need to show all state changes – you may select a temp range of your choice.

Calculating Energy Changes When calculating energy changes that occur through both potential and kinetic energy – you need to calculate the changes for each area, convert the different units to one unit and then add them all together. For areas with kinetic energy changes – Use q = mc∆T For areas with potential energy changes – Use stoichiometry
Page 654 Strategy: 1.Draw a quick curve to determine how many types of energy are involved. 2. Use q=mc∆T for changes in Kinetic Energy. 3. Use stoichiometry for changes in Potential Energy. 4. Convert the numbers to the same units and add together.

Calculating Enthalpy Changes for Reactions For some chemical reactions we cannot use coffee-cup calorimetry to determine the enthalpy change. These reactions may be: Too explosive Too slow Not aqueous in water In this case – there are three possible methods to use: ▫ Hess’ Law ▫ Using Enthalpies of Formation ▫ Using Bond Energies
1. Hess’ Law of Summation Hess’ Law – the enthalpy change of a physical or chemical process depends only on the beginning conditions (reactants) and the end conditions (products). The enthalpy change is independent of the pathway of the process and the number of intermediate steps in the process. It is the sum of all the enthalpy changes of all the individual steps that make up the process. Hess’ Law is valid because enthalpy is a state function. A state function is a property that is determined only by the current conditions of the system – it is not dependent on the path taken by the system to reach those conditions.
Ex. Carbon dioxide can be formed by two different pathways: Pathway #1 C (s) + ½ O 2 (g) → CO (g) ∆H o = kJ then, CO (g) + ½ O 2 (g) → CO 2 (g) ∆H o = kJ Pathway #2 C (s) + O 2 (g) → CO 2 (g) ∆H o = kJ Adding the two equations from Pathway #1 will result in the same equation as Pathway #2
Two Ways To Manipulate Equations Reverse the equations.... reactants become products and products become reactants. You MUST reverse the enthalpy sign. Multiply each coefficient by the same integer or fraction. You MUST multiply the enthalpy value by the same integer or fraction.
