Formula for “Reversible, Isothermal Work”

Remember that t he amount of work by the system on the surroundings varies according to how one goes from point (P initial

,V initial

) to (P final

,V final

).

Remember that for a gas:

P·V = n R T and

P = n R T / V

And that w =

-

P · 

V

The symbol

 signifies any change but in calculus the infintesimal change that we have in reversible cases is represented by the roman letter d. d w =

-

P · dV

Substituting for P: dw =

- ( nRT / V)

· dV = - nRT∙

(1

/V)

· dV

Calculus gives a final equation for reversible isothermal work done by a gas on the surroundings: w =

- ( nRT) ln (V final

/ V initial

)

The First Law of Thermodynamics

Energy is neither created nor destroyed. Energy is conserved.

Any energy lost by the system is gained by the surroundings.

 U = q + w

State Functions

A state function is a property of a system that can be determined by specifying its final and initial conditions (in terms of temperatue, pressure, etc).

The value of a state function does not depend on the particular history of the sample, only its present condition.

The change in the state function depends only on the initial and final states of the system, not how the change occurs.

Can use an “energy diagram” for state functions.

Work, w and heat, q are not state functions because they depend on the path taken

Heat at constant pressure

Consider the case where no non-expansion work is done and where the volume of the system does not change. Since 

V=0, w=0 and all the heat q involved in the change is thus equal to the internal energy.

 U = q + w = q v

(const vol, ΔV=0, w=-PΔV=0)

This means that when a chemical reaction is performed in a constant volume calorimeter (a

“bomb”calorimeter), the heat measured is the internal energy, 

U. Because the heat capacity, C equals q/

T,

C

V

=  U /  T

Chapter 5 Thermochemistry 2

Heat at constant pressure

Enthalpy

Heat transferred under constant-pressure conditions is called enthalpy, H .

It is related to the internal energy by

H = U + PV

Consider the case for a change when all the work done by the system on the surroundings is expansion under constant pressure.

 H =  U + P  V but the internal energy equals the heat and work:

 U =

 H = ( q p q p

- P ex

 V

- P ex

 V) + P  V

The change in enthalpy, ∆H , equals the heat, q p

, gained or lost by the system when the process occurs under constant pressure:

 H  H

 H

initial

 q

p

 If ∆H is positive then the system has gained heat from surroundings, and is an endothermic process .

 If ∆H is negative , the system has released heat to the surroundings, and is an exothermic process .

Enthalpy, H, is a state function; heat in general, q, is not.

Since heat transferred at constant pressure is identified as the change in enthalpy, ∆H, we can define the heat capacity at constant pressure, C

P

as

C

P

=  H /  T

The heat involved in a reaction at constant pressure can be measured with a simple apparatus called the “coffee cup” calorimeter:

[Now that you have the concepts of PV=nRT and of molecular structure, Section 6.10 of the textbook can now be covered in this course.]

Enthalpies of Physical Change

The molecules in a solid are vibrating in place. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy that the molecules. As the temperature rises, more kinetic energy is added and the molecules vibrate more. At one particular temperature, the molecules begin to tumble past each other. This breaking loose to tumble around each other (still in contact with each other) requires more energy. This is called the latent energy. At constant pressure, the molar enthalpy change that accompanies melting (fusion) is called the enthalpy of fusion, ∆H fus

.

∆H fus

= H (liquid) – H (solid)

Fusion is the “act of making fluid” and is the opposite of freezing. The enthalpy of freezing is equal and opposite to ∆H fus

.

Chapter 5 Thermochemistry 4

The amount of energy needed to vaporize a liquid into a gas is much more than that needed to melt (fuse). This is because the molecule in a gas are no longer in contact. The difference in molar enthalpy between the vapor and liquid states of a substance is called the enthalpy of vaporization, ∆H vap

= H(gas) – H (liquid).

Sublimation is the direct conversion of a solid into a gas. Frost disappearing is an example, as is the disappearance of “dry ice”, CO

∆H sub

Hess’s Law

Hess’s law states that if a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, ∆H for the reaction will be equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps.

Hess pointed out that the heat absorbed (or evolved) in a given chemical reaction is the same whether the process takes one step or in several steps.

The main use of Hess’s Law is to calculate energies that are notavailable because the experiment might be too difficult to perform or is mssing from tables of recorded reactions.

Enthalpies of Formation

Enthalpy of formation, ∆H f

,(or heat of formation), the formation of a compound from its constituent elements.

The standard enthalpy of formation of a compound,  H f

, is the change in enthalpy for the reaction that forms 1 mol of the compound from its elements, with all substances in their standard states.

The most stable form of the element is used. E.g. O

2

not O

3

, C(graphite not diamond)

The standard enthalpy of formation of the most stable form of any element is zero.

Using Enthalpies of Formation to Calculate Enthalpies of Reaction

We can use Hess's law to calculate the standard enthalpy change for any reaction for which we know the  H f
