Thermochemistry Chapter 12
2
Thermochemistry The study of the changes in the heat of chemical reactions. Heat – the energy that is transferred from one object to another due to a difference in temperature.
3
Bonds breaking requires energy Bonds forming releases energy Therefore… Almost all chemical reactions absorb or release energy as heat.
4
Exothermic Reaction – Gives off more energy forming bonds than breaking bonds. (feels hot) Endothermic Reaction – Requires more energy to break bonds than to form bonds. (feels cold)
5
Enthalpy The heat content of a chemical system. Enthalpy = the amount of heat released or absorbed when a chemical reaction takes place at constant pressure. Enthalpy depends on: temperature, physical state, and composition
6
Energy Vs. Enthalpy Very similar numerically. Enthalpy is energy in a system at a constant pressure. Enthalpy is much more useful, most everyday chemical rxns take place at constant pressure.
7
Enthalpy Change H = H Products - H Reactants Measured in KJ Comparisons are made at 1atm of pressure, 25 ° C (298K), & in its standard state of matter.
8
Standard State of an Element The most stable form of an element under standard conditions. Standard Enthalpy Change – change that is measured when reactants in their standard state change to products in their standard state - H °
9
Endothermic Vs Exothermic Energy is absorbed Rxn Vessel becomes cooler Temp inside vessel decreases Energy of Reactants < Energy of Products + H Energy is released Rxn Vessel becomes warmer Temp inside vessel Increases Energy of Reactants > Energy of Products - H
10
Writing Enthalpy Changes N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) ----> 2NH 3 (g) H = - 92.4 kJ Can Reverse Equation 2NH 3 (g) -----> N 2 (g) + 3H 2 (g) H = + 92.4 kJ _____________________________________________ 92.4 kJ of energy is released for every 1 mole of N 2 (g) & 92.4 kJ of energy is released for every 3 moles of H 2 (g) & 92.4 kJ of energy is released for every 2 moles of NH 3 (g) produced.
11
1.How much energy is released if only 1 mole of ammonia (NH 3 ) gas is produced? 2.How much energy is released if 10 moles of nitrogen (N 2 ) gas and 30 moles of hydrogen (H 2 ) gas is used in the reaction?
12
Hess’s Law Hess’s Law states that the heat of a whole reaction is equivalent to the sum of it’s steps.
13
Rules for Hess’s Law 1.If the coefficients of an equation are multiplied by a factor, the enthalpy change for the reaction is multiplied by the same factor. 2.If an equation is reversed, the sign of enthalpy change reverses also.
14
Examples C + O 2 CO 2 Can occur as 2 steps C + ½O 2 CO H = – 110.5 kJ CO + ½O 2 CO 2 H = – 283.0 KJ C + CO + O 2 CO + CO 2 H = - 393.5 KJ
15
C 2 H 4 (g) + H 2 O(l) C 2 H 5 OH(l) Can Occur as 2 Steps C 2 H 4 (g) + 3O 2 (g) 2CO 2 (g) + 2H 2 O(l) H =-1411.1 KJ 2CO 2 (g) + 3H 2 O(l) C 2 H 5 OH(l) + 3O 2 (g) H =+1367.1 KJ C 2 H 4 (g) + H 2 O(l) C 2 H 5 OH(l) H = +44 KJ More Practice @ http://www.saskschools.ca/curr_content/chem30/mod ules/module3/lesson5/hessmore.html http://www.saskschools.ca/curr_content/chem30/mod ules/module3/lesson5/hessmore.html
16
Calorimetry The study of heat flow and heat measurements Calorimetry experiments determine the enthalpy changes of reactions by making accurate measurements of temperature changes produced in a calorimeter.
17
Temperature change depends on the amount of heat released & the heat capacity of the surroundings. – Heat Capacity = Amt of heat necessary to raise the temp by 1 °C Heat capacity is effected by composition and mass -Specific Heat(C) = Heat capacity of 1g of a substance
18
Specific Heat of Water Water has one of the largest specific heats. Specific Heat of H 2 O = 4.184J/g°C 4.184KJ/g°C = 1 calorie calorie amt of heat needed to raise 1g of H 2 O, 1°C
19
Heat vs Temperature Change A transfer of heat is detected by measuring a temperature change, however, a small temperature change does not always signify a small transfer of heat.
20
Using Calorimeters q is used to denote heat measurements made in a calorimeter q of the surrounding is equal and opposite in magnitude to heat of the rxn : q rxn = -q sur To determine amt of heat absored by water q sur(water) = m x C x (T f - T i )
