Thermodynamics of Reactions I.Entropy and Chemical Reactions A.Example: N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) 1)System: positional probability a)4 reactant particles 2 product particles b)Fewer possible configurations, S = - B.An increase in number of gas particles is entropically favored 1)4NH 3 (g) + 5O 2 (g) 4NO(g) + 6H 2 O(g) 2)Nine particles 10 particles, S = + 3)Example: Predict sign of S a)CaCO 3 (s) CaO(s) + CO 2 (g) b)2SO 2 (g) + O 2 (g) 2SO 3 (g)

C.Third Law of Thermodynamics = the entropy of a perfect crystal at 0K = 0 (there is only one possible configuration) 1)As temperature increases, random vibrations occur; S = + 1)We can calculate S for any substance if we know how S depends on T [Standard S o values, Appendix IIB] 2) S o reaction = nS o prod - nS o reactants 4)Example: Find S o at 25 o C for 2NiS(s) + 3O 2 (g) 2SO 2 (g) + 2NiO(s) S o (J/K mol) 53 205 248 38 S o = 2(248) + 2(38) – 2(53) – 3(205) = -149 J/Kmol (3 gas particles 2 gas particles)

D.Factors Affecting Standard Entropies 1)Phase of Matter: as discussed earlier, S gas >> S liquid > S solid a)S o H 2 O(l) = 70.0 J/Kmol b)S o H 2 O(g) = 188.8 J/Kmol 2)Molar Mass: heavy elements have more entropy than light (in same state) Has to do with translation energy states 3)Allotropes: more rigid structures have less entropy 4)Molecular Complexity: more complex = more entropy a)S o Ar(g) = 154.8 (39.948 g/mol) b)S o NO(g) = 210.8 (30.006 g/mol)

II.Free Energy and Chemical Reactions A.Standard Free Energy Change = G o = reactants/products at standard states 1)Gases at 1 atm, solution = 1 M, element at 25 o C and 1 atm has G o = 0 2)N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) G o = -33.3 kJ G o can’t be measured directly, it must be calculated from H o and S 4)Usefulness of G o: The more negative G o is, the more likely reaction is i.If G o is negative, the reaction is spontaneous as written ii.If G o is positive, the reaction is not spontaneous 5)Why use standard states? Because G changes with P, T, concentration B.Calculating G o : G o = H o - T S o 1)Example: C(s) + O 2 (g) CO 2 (g) i. H o = -393.5 kJ S o = 3.05 J/K ii. G o = (-3.935 x 10 5 J) – (298 K)(3.05 J/K) = -394.4 kJ 2)Example: Find H o, S o, G o for 2SO 2 + O 2 2SO 3 H o (kJ/mol) -297 0 -396 S o (J/Kmol) 248 205 257 T = 298 K

3)Use the G o of known reactions to find G o of unknown reactions a)2CO + O 2 2CO 2 G o = ? b)Known Reactions i)2CH 4 + 3O 2 2CO + 4H 2 O G o = -1088 kJ/mol ii)CH 4 + 2O 2 CO 2 + 2H 2 O G o = -801 kJ/mol c)If we reverse the first reaction and double the second… i)2CO + 4H 2 O 2CH 4 + 3O 2 G o = +1088 kJ/mol ii)2(CH 4 + 2O 2 CO 2 + 2H 2 O) G o = -1602 kJ/mol iii)2CO + O 2 2CO 2 G o = -514 kJ/mol d)Example: Find G o for C diamond C graphite Given that C d + O 2 CO 2 G o = -397 kJ/mol C g + O 2 CO 2 G o = -394 kJ/mol 4)The G f o Method a)Free energy of formation G f o is tabulated for many compounds b)We can sum these for reactants and products to find G o

c)Example: 6C(s) + 6H 2 (g) + 3O 2 (g) C 6 H 12 O 6 (s) (glucose) d) G f o = free energy change of formation of one mole of the product from its elements in their standard states (-911 kJ/mol for glucose) e)Example: 2CH 3 OH(g) + 3O 2 (g) 2CO 2 (g) + 4H 2 O(g) G f o (kJ/mol) -163 0 -394 -229 G o = nG f o prod - nG f o reactants G o = 2(-394) + 4(-229) - 2(-163) - 3(0) = -1378 kJ/mol G and Pressure A.Pressure dependencies of the state functions 1)H is not pressure dependent 2)S is pressure dependent a)S(large volume) > S(small volume) b)S(low pressure) > S(high pressure) c)PV = nRT

3)G must depend on pressure since G = H – TS G = G o + RTlnP Use R = 8.3145 J/Kmol B.Example: N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) G = 2G(NH 3 ) – G(N 2 ) – 3G(H 2 )

2)Example: CO (g) + 2H 2(g) CH 3 OH (l) Find G at 25 o C, P(CO) = 5 atm, P(H 2 ) = 3 atm a)From Appendix IIB, find G o = -166 – (-137) – 0 = -29 kJ/mol b)Find RTlnQ = (8.3145)(298)ln(1/(5)(3) 2 ) = -9.4 kJ/mol c) G = G o + RTlnQ = -38 kJ/mol d)More spontaneous at these conditions than at standard conditions IV.Meaning of G for Reaction at Equilibrium A.Even if G is negative, the spontaneous reaction doesn’t necessarily go to completion 1)Phase changes always go to completion if spontaneous 2)Reactions often have a minimum G that is somewhere before completion of the reaction
10
4) The equilibrium mixture of reactants and products might be more stable (lower G) than the completely formed product alone CO (g) + 2H 2(g) CH 3 OH (l) B.Equilibrium 1)Kinetics: forward and reverse reaction rates are the same at equilibrium 2)Thermodynamics: the lowest free energy state is at equilibrium 3)A(g) B(g) a)G A = G A o + RTlnP A (this is decreasing as the reaction proceeds) b)G B = G B o + RTlnP B (this is increasing as the reaction proceeds) c)G = G A + G B (this is decreasing as the reaction proceeds) 4)At equilibrium G A = G B and we have a new P A E and P B E a)G is no longer decreasing, it is at its minimum point b)No further driving force for the reaction to proceed ( G = 0) Reaction StartsReaction Proceeds Equilibrium

5)Example: A(g) B(g) a)P A E = 0.25(2 atm) = 0.5 atm b)P B E = 0.75(2 atm) = 1.5 atm c)K = P B /P A = 1.5/.5 = 3.0 6)The same Equilibrium Position would be reached from any initial condition where A + B = 2.0 atm 7)At Equilibrium: G prod = G react ( G = G prod – G react = 0) 1 mol A, 2 atm1 mol B, 2 atm1 mol A/B, 2 atm

8)At Equilibrium: G = 0 = G o + RTlnK G o = -RTlnK a)If G o = 0, then K = 1 and we are at equilibrium b)If G o 1 and the reaction proceeds forward c)If G o > 0, then K < 1 and the reaction proceeds in reverse 9)Example: N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) 2NH 3 (g) a)Given G o = -33.3 kJ/mol at 25 o C b)Predict the direction when P(NH 3 ) = 1 atm, P(N 2 ) = 1.47 atm and P(H 2 ) = 0.01 atm c)Predict direction when P(NH 3 ) = P(N 2 ) = P(H 2 ) = 1 atm 10) Example: 4Fe(s) + 3O 2 (g) 2Fe 2 O 3 (s) at 25 o C H f o 0 0 -826 kJ/mol S o 27 205 90 J/Kmol Find K 11) Dependence of K on T 1/T lnK Slope = - H/R Intercept = S/R

G and Work a)W max = G All the free energy produced from a spontaneous reaction could be used to do work (Reversible Process only) b)For a non-spontaneous reaction, G tells us how much work we would have to do on the system to get the reaction to occur c)W actual < W max We always lose some energy to heat in any process (Irreversible Processes) d)Theoretically, Reversible Process utilize all energy for work, Unfortunately, all real processes are Irreversible G = -50.5 kJ S = -80.8 J/K Irreversible (real) Process Increases S surr to make S univ = +
