2. Introduction to thermodynamic state functions Partitional function (q, [q]=?): Encodes how the probabilities are partitioned among the different microstates, based on their individual energies (’sum over states’) (Internal) Energy (E, [E]=kJ/mol): ΔE = w + q Enthalpy (H, [H]=kJ/mol): H ≡ E + pV = E + RT Entropy (S, [S]=J/molK): a measure of the number of specific ways in which a thermodynamic system may be arranged (’measure of disorder’) Gibbs Free energy (G, [G]=kJ/mol): G ≡ H - TS maximum energy can be attained only in a completely reversible process (’chemical potential’ ’available energy’) 2

7. Microstates Combintation of Degree of freedom – External: translation – Internal: rotation, vibration and electronic 7

8. Translational states What we need to know: Molecular mass E trans (T)=3/2Nk b T=3/2RT S trans (T)=R[ln(q trans )+1+3/2] 1 molecule 1 mol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXpfO9WhlPA E trans (T=298.15K)=3/2RT=3.7 kJ/mol 8

9. Rotational states Energy level diagram ≈2x =1x What we need to know: Optimized geometry of the species → Rotational constants (Rigid rotor treatment) E rot (T)=Nk b T=RT S rot (T)=R[ln(q rot )+1] 1 molecule 1 mol E rot (T=298.15K)=RT=2.5 kJ/mol 9

10. Vibrational states What we need to know: Optimized geometry of the species Force constants (k) → harmonic wavenumber (Harmonic oscillator approximation) 1 molecule 1 mol 1 dimension (diatomics molecule) 10

11. Scaling factors The vibrational frequencies need adjustment (scale factor) to better match experimental vibrational frequencies. This scaling compensates errors from: (1) Approximation in the solution of the electronic Schrödinger equation. (2) Harmonic oscillator approach How to get scaling? (1)Do it yourself (2)Find it (a)http://cccbdb.nist.gov/http://cccbdb.nist.gov/ (b)literature c=0.9608 for B3LYP/6-31G(d) 11
