6. So what do we do with all these Calories?
Your body will use these Calories as energy to do everyday activities but what if you don’t use all the calories you consume?
Your body will either use the energy or it will store it as fat!
So people who eat more food than their body can use exercise as a way of releasing the extra energy. But how much exercise do you really need to do
in order to burn off those extra Calories?

7. Exercise!
Running and walking are not the same!! Even though you can run OR walk a mile, there is a difference. According to David Swain, a Ph.D. in exercise physiology, “When you perform a continuous exercise, you burn five Calories for every liter of oxygen you consume and running in general consumes a lot more oxygen than walking.”
Running burns approximately 100 Calories per mile.
SO WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

8. I LOVE FOOD!  But I hate running! 
To run off the food previously mentioned, this is approximately how long you would have to RUN!
1 McChicken: MILES
1 McDouble: MILES
1 bag of Cheetos: 3.30 MILES

9. Thermochemical Reactions

2S + 3O2  2SO kJ
This equation represents an ___________ reaction since the heat is a ________.
H2 + Br kJ  2HBr
This equation represents an ___________ reaction since the heat is a __________.
exothermic

10. Calculating Enthalpy (∆H)
There are two ways to calculate enthalpy.
Enthalpy can be calculated by the heat of formation of the products minus the reactants using the equation:
Enthalpy can also be calculated by the energy required to break bonds verses the energy give off when bonds form.
∆H = H (products) – H (reactants)
∆H = Energy of bonds broken – Energy of bonds formed

11. Calculating Enthalpy (∆H)
Calculate the heat given off by the reaction shown below:
2 B5H9(g) + 12O2(g)  5B2O3(g) + 9H2O(g)
Heat of Formation
B5H9(g) = 73.2 kJ/mol
B2O3(g) = kJ/mol
O2(g) = 0 kJ/mol
H2O(g) = kJ/mol
∆H = H (products) – H (reactants)
∆H =
[(5 mol B2O3 x kJ/mol) +
(9 mol H2O x kJ/mol)] –
[(2 molB5H9 x 73.2kJ/mol) +
(12 mol O2 x 0kJ/mol)]
∆H =
[ kJ] -
[146.4kJ] = kJ

12. Calculating Enthalpy (∆H)
Find the ∆ H for the following reaction given the following bond energies:
2H2 + O2  2H2O
Bond Energy
H-H 436 kJ/mol
O=O 499 kJ/mol
O-H 463 kJ/mol
We have to figure out which bonds are broken and which bonds are formed.
2 H-H bonds are broken
1 O=O bond is broken
4 O-H bonds are formed
(2 O-H bonds are formed per water molecule,
and there are 2 water molecules formed)
Now we can substitute the values given into the equation:
∆H = Energy of bonds broken – Energy of bonds formed
∆H =
[(2 x 436) + (1 x 499)] –
[4 x 463]
= -481 kJ

18. Specific Heat
Specific heat or “c” has units of Joule/gram °C. This refers to the energy needed to change one gram of the substance one degree Celsius.
Check your understanding:
Which has a higher specific heat? Aluminum or water?
Why does a pizza roll that you can pickup with your fingers still have the possibility of burning your tongue?
Aluminum. Less heat is required to change aluminum’s temperature.
The pizza sauce inside contains water with a high specific heat.

19. Calculations Practice
Example 1: How many Joules would it take to raise the temperature of 250 g of ice from -20 °C to -5 °C? (The specific heat of ice is Joule/gram °C)
q = mc∆T
q = 250g
(2.108 J/g °C)
( -5 °C – (-20 °C))
q = 250g (2.108 J/g °C)( 15 °C)
q = 7905 Joules
= 7.9 kJ

20. More Practice
Example 2: What is the specific heat of Ethyl Alcohol if 100 grams of Ethyl Alcohol was heated from 30 °C to 50 °C when 1160 calories of heat was applied? The specific heat of Ethyl alcohol is 0.58 cal/g °C)
q = mc∆T
1160 cal = 100g c
( 50 °C - 30 °C)
1160 cal = c x (2000 g °C)
c = 0.58 cal/g °C

21. Calorimeters

22. Heat of Fusion & Heat of Vaporization
Molar heat of fusion (∆Hfus) : the amount of energy required to take 1 mole of a solid to the liquid state.
Example: H2O(s)  H2O(l) ∆Hfus = 6.01 kJ
-Heat of fusion is usually greater for ionic solids than molecular solids since ionic solids are more strongly held together.
For ice to water … ∆Hfus= 6.01 kJ/mol
Molar heat of vaporization (∆H vap): the amount of energy required to take 1 mole of a liquid to the gaseous state.
Example: H2O(l)  H2O(g) ∆Hvap = kJ
For water to steam … ∆Hvap= kJ/mol
These values are mainly used as conversion factors!
