Gibbs Free Energy 18.4 – 18.5
2
Homework Issues?
3
Gibbs Free Energy A new thermodynamic quantity in terms of H and S that is directly related to spontaneity. G = H - T S
4
The free energy refers to the formation of one mole of compound. Write reaction for the formation: NaCl CHCl 3
5
Example 18.4 p772. What’s G for N 2(g) + 3H 2(g) 2NH 3(g) ? Using H and S
6
Exercise 18.6 p772 Calculate G CH 4(g) + 2O 2(g) CO 2(g) + 2H 2 O (g)
7
Solving for G G o = n G o f (products) - n G o f (reactants) Elements are always zero as with H.
8
Example 18.5 p 773 Calc G for C 2 H 5 OH (l) + 3O 2(g) 2CO 2(g) + 3H 2 O (g)
9
exercise 18.7 p 773 Calc G CaCO 3(s) CaO (s) + CO 2(g)
10
GoGoGoGo If < -10 kJ, spontaneous If > 10 kJ, non-spontaneous If between –10 &10 kJ, at equilibrium
11
Example 18.6 p 775 Calc H o & G o for 2 KClO 3(s) + 2 KCl (s) 3 O 2(g) Discuss enthalpy change and spontaneity.
12
exercise 18.8 Which are spontaneous as written? C (graphite) + 2H 2(g) CH 4(g) 2H 2(g) + O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) 4HCN (g) + 5O 2(g) 2H 2 O (l) + 4CO 2(g) + 2N 2(g) Ag + (aq) + I - (aq) AgI (s) Mostly reactants or products or both?
13
Interpretation of Free Energy Chemical reactions are used to produce useful work – Burn gasoline to make car move – Reaction in battery produce electricity to drive motors Not all reactions produce useful work Maximum work is obtained when no entropy is produced. The free-energy change is the maximum energy available, or free, to do useful work
14
W max = G Maximum work is an idealization – Some entropy is created During spontaneous reactions, the free energy decreases as equilibrium is reached. – The energy created is used During nonspontaneous reactions, the free energy increases as equilibrium is reached. – Have to put energy in to make reaction occur.
