Thermochemistry
Energy-capacity
to do work or to produce heat
Law of Conservation of Energy
–1st law of thermodynamics
–Energy can be neither created nor destroyed
–Energy of universe is constant
Potential energy
–in chemistry, this is usually the energy stored in reactants
and products
–Stored energy; sometimes because of position PE = mgh
Kinetic energy
–Energy involving movement

System

Example 1: Calculate the ∆E for a system
undergoing an endothermic process in
which 15.6 kJ of heat flows and where 1.4
kJ of work is done on the system.
∆E = + 15.6 kJ + + 1.4 kJ
= 17.0 kJ
q is positive b/c endothermic
w is positive b/c work is done on the system
Example 2:
q
= + 51 kJ and w = - 15 kJ
∆E = 36 kJ
q
∆E
= +47 kJ and w = 88 kJ
= 41 kJ
Which of the above has work done on
surroundings?
-15 kJ

When 1 mole of methane (CH4) is burned at
constant pressure, 890 kJ of energy is released
as heat. Calculate H for a process in which a
5.8 g sample of methane is burned at constant
pressure.

Science of measuring heat
Calorimeter constant pressure (coffee cup) or
constant volume (bomb)
Heat capacity
C = heat absorbed
increase in temperature
 Specific heat capacity- energy required to raise
the temperature of one gram of a substance by
one degree Celsius
q=mcT

Molar heat capacity-energy required to raise the
temperature of one mole of a substance by one
degree Celsius
Energy released by a reaction =
energy absorbed by the solution

If two reactants at the same temperature are
mixed and the resulting solution gets warmer,
this means the reaction taking place is
exothermic
 H = (-)

If the solution gets cooler, the reaction is
endothermic
 H = (+)
Consider the dissolution of CaCl2:
CaCl2(s)  Ca2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) H = -81.5 kJ
An 11.0 g sample of CaCl2 is dissolved in 125 g of
water with both substances at 25.0°C. Calculate
the final temperature of the solution assuming
no heat lost to the surroundings and assuming
the solution has a specific heat capacity of
4.18J/goC

A 46.2 g sample of copper is heated to
95.4 °C and then placed in a calorimeter
containing 75.0 g water at 19.6 °C. The
final temperature of the metal and water

capacity of copper, assuming that all the
heat lost by the copper is gained by the
water.
Camphor (C10H16O) has an energy of
