Energy in Chemical & Physical Changes
2
Thermochemistry Study of changes that accompany chemical reactions and phase changes The Universe is considered to be made of 2 parts: 1. System: part that contains the reaction or process 2. Surroundings: everything else
3
ENERGY defined as the ability to do work or transfer heat energy.
2 types of energy Potential Energy (PE): Energy at rest due to the position of an object; chemical potential energy is the energy stored in a substance’s bonds. 2. Kinetic energy (KE): Energy of the motion of particles in a substance and is directly proportional to temperature. As temperature increases, KE also increases.
4
Law of Conservation Law of Conservation of Energy states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, just changed in form C8H18 + O2 H2O + CO2 + Energy Stored PE converts to 25% work and 75% heat (ENERGY)
5
Exothermic Reactions HOT PACK
An exothermic reaction is when the system releases energy; heat flows out of a reaction and the surroundings get warmer. They have a NEGATIVE H. H products < H reactants 4Fe + 3 O2 2 Fe2O kJ OR 4Fe + 3 O2 2 Fe2O H = kJ
6
Endothermic Reactions
COLD PACK An endothermic reaction is when the system absorbs energy; heat flows into a reaction and the surroundings get cooler. They have a POSITIVE H H products > Hreactants 27kJ + NH4NO3(s) NH4(aq)+1+NO3(aq) OR NH4NO3(s) NH4(aq)+1 + NO3(aq)-1H = + 27 kJ

Reaction Co-ordinates

What is the difference between Temperature & Heat?
Instrument: thermometer Units: Celsius, Fahrenheit, Kelvin Definition: A measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance A measure of the motions of the molecules A measure of how hot or cold something is
9
What is the difference between Temperature & Heat?
Instrument: calorimeter Units: calories, joules Definition: The total amount of energy in a substance. A form of energy that is transferred between objects because one is warner than the other. Heat transfer is always from hot to cold Depends on 3 things: 1. amount of substance (mass) 2. Temperature change 3. type of material (specific heat)
10
Units of Heat Energy A calorie is defined as the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 C 1 cal= J Food “Calories” are kilocalories. 1kcal = 1000 calories.
11
Temperature ≠ Heat Greater Thermal Energy
12
Specific Heat Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 C Different substances have different specific heats. Water has a specific heat of J/gC. Iron(Fe) has a specific heat of .449 J/gC. Gold (Au) has a specific heat of .129 J/gC. The higher the specific heat the more energy it takes to change its temperature.
13
Calculating Heat mT c= specific heat q = heat in joules or galories
m= mass T = change in temperature = Tf – Ti c= q_ mT
14
Example A 155 g sample of an unknown substance was heated from 25.0 C to 40.0 C. The substance absorbed 5696 J of energy. What is the specific heat?
15
Example How much heat is needed to change the temperature of 12.0 g of silver with a specific heat of cal/g°C from 25.0°C to 83.0 °C?
16
Measuring Heat in a Calorimeter
A coffee cup calorimeter measures heat at constant pressure; works on the premise that the amount of heat released in a reaction(-q) or physical change is equal to the amount of heat absorbed by the water(+q) q = +q Rearrange the specific heat equation: q = m x c x T
17
Example A piece of unknown metal with mass g is heated to an initial temperature of °C and dropped into g of water (with an initial temperature of °C) in a calorimeter. The final temperature of the system is 30.05°C. What is the specific heat of the metal? Specific heat of water = J/g°C
18
Example A gram sample of vanadium was heated to °C (its initial temperature). It was then dumped into a calorimeter. The initial temperature of the calorimeter’s water was °C. After the metal was allowed to release all its heat to the calorimeter’s water, °C was the final temperature. What mass of distilled water was in the calorimeter? Specific heat of vanadium = J/gC Specific heat of water = J/g°C
19
Measuring Heat during Phases Changes
20
Heat of Fusion/Solidification
Heat of fusion (Hfus ) is the heat energy required to melt one gram of a solid at its melting point For water, Hfus = 334 J/g q = Hfus x mass Heat of solidification (Hsolid ) is the heat energy lost when one gram of a liquid freezes to a solid at its freezing point For water, Hsolid = -334 J/g q = Hsolid x mass
21
Heat of Vaporization/Condensation
Heat of vaporization (Hvap) is the heat to vaporize one gram of a liquid at its normal boiling point For water, Hvap= J/g q = Hvap x mass Heat of condensation (Hcond ) is the heat energy released when one gram of a liquid forms from its vapor For water, Hcond = J/g q = Hcond x mass
22
Example How much heat is needed to melt 500.0g of ice at 0 C?
23
Example How much heat is evolved when 1255 g of water condenses to a liquid at 100°C?
