1
Thermochemistry Thermo = heat Chemistry = study of matter
2
Thermochemistry Study of heat changes and energy that accompany chemical reactions and phase changes
3
Review of Energy Capacity to do work or to create heat and or generate electricity Types: Chemical Nuclear Thermal Radiant (light) Electrical Mechanical
4
Law of conservation of Energy Energy can be converted from one form to another but it cannot be created or destroyed
5
Forms of energy: Potential –Stored energy Kinetic –Energy of motion
6
Chemical potential energy Energy stored within the structural units of chemical compounds
7
Heat is energy (Q) flows from an area of high heat to an area of low heat Can be measured in calories, Calories, or Joules 1000 cal = 1 Cal = 4.184 J
8
Heat energy (Q) System: part of the universe being studied Surroundings: everything outside of the system Universe: system + surroundings
9
Heat energy (Q) Endothermic: feels cold to touch temperature decreases heat absorbed by system Q = +
10
Heat energy (Q) Exothermic: feels warm to touch temperature increases heat released by system Q = -
11
Specific heat capacity C or C p The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance 1ºC Water= 4.18 J/g 0 C Glass=.50 J/g 0 C
12
Specific heat capacity Measure of a substance’s resistance to temperature change High=resistant (water) Low=easy (metals, glass, etc.)
13
Equation Q = m C ∆T - Q is the heat absorbed or released in Joules -m is mass in grams -C is the specific heat in J/g/ºC -∆T is the temperature change in ºC
14
mass Temperature change (final temp minus initial temp) Specific heat capacity in J/g- o C (Q) = m C ( T)
15
When 1982 g of water underwent a temperature change from 23.677 o C to 27.482 o C, how much energy in kJ did the water absorb? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g- o C). Show all work!
16
How much energy in J is required to raise the temperature of 500.0 g of copper from 22.8 o C to 100.0 o C? The specific heat of copper is 0.387 J/g/ o C. Show all work!
17
Measuring heat exchange Calorimeter- insulated device used for measuring the amount of heat absorbed or released during a reaction
18
Calorimeter
19
In a closed system: Heat loss = Heat gain Q lost = Q gained m C ∆ T = m C ∆ T
20
Enthalpy (∆H) heat content of a system at constant pressure Can measure changes in enthalpy during a reaction
21
Enthalpy heat of reaction ∆ H rxn ∆ H rxn = H final - H initial Or ∆ H rxn = H products - H reactants
22
Thermochemical Equations Used to calculate and express heat changes. The physical states of the reactants and products in this equation is important! Example: CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) → CO 2(g) + 2H 2 O (l) ∆H = -890.2 kJ
23
Exothermic rxn: ∆ H rxn is < 0 ∆ H rxn is negative
24
Endothermic rxn: ∆ H rxn is > 0 ∆ H rxn is positive
