Chapter 5 - Thermochemistry
1
Thermochemistry is the study of the relationships between chemical reactions and energy changes.
Target #1: I can give examples of different forms of energy. I can also state
common units of energy and convert between these units.
Energy – the capacity to do work or to transfer heat
2
Kinetic Energy - energy of motion; KE = 1/2 mv ; since all atoms have mass and are in motion, all
atoms have a certain amount of kinetic energy; the energy that a substance has because of its
temperature is related to its KE
Potential Energy - the energy that an object possess because of its composition or its position with
respect to another object
Electrostatic potential energy – a form of potential energy due to the interactions between charged
particles; this energy increases with increasing charge and decreases with increasing distance between
the charged particles
Internal energy of a system (E) - sum of all KE and PE in a system; the difference in changes of
energy from before the change to after the change; ∆E = Efinal – Einitial;
Relevance of the signs of ∆E:
positive ∆E = system has gained energy from the surroundings
negative ∆E = system has lost energy to its surroundings

It is nearly impossible to determine the energy of a system, but it is relatively easy to calculate the changes
of energy in a system!
Common Units of Energy:
A- joule; 1 J = 1 kg-m2/s2
B- calorie - used in biochemistry; 1 cal = 4.184 J
C- kilocalorie (Calorie); 1000 cal = 1 kilocalorie = 1 Calorie
Other terms related to energy changes . . .
System: portion of the universe that we are studying with respect to thermochemical changes
Surroundings: everything that lies outside of the system
example: If we were studying the combustion of gasoline inside of a cylinder, the gasoline and the
oxygen would constitute the system and the cylinder and piston (and everything outside of
would constitute the surroundings
Closed System: can exchange energy but not matter with the surroundings
Open System: can exchange both energy and matter with the surroundings
Heat: energy transferred from a hotter object to a colder object
Energy: capacity of an object to do work or to transfer heat (extensive property)
Target #2: I can define the first law of thermodynamics and write the
associated equation.
First Law of Thermodynamics - energy is conserved; any energy lost by a system must
2
that)
be gained by its surroundings (and visa-versa)
Equation representing the First law of Thermodynamics:
∆E = q + w, where . . .
E = change in internal energy
q = heat gained or lost by the system
w = work done on or by the system
Target #3: I can describe how the change in internal energy of a system is
related to the changes of heat and work between the system and its
surroundings.
A positive “q” means the system has gained heat
A positive “w” means work is done on the system by its surroundings.

Target #4: I can define enthalpy and relate the enthalpy change in a process to
the heat added (endothermic) to or lost (exothermic) by the system during the
process.
Enthalpy (H) - heat absorbed or released in a chemical reaction (under constant pressure); the
abbreviation qp indicates that pressure is constant; note that ∆H=qp under constant pressure conditions . .
. as in coffe cup calorimeters!

2 H2O(g) + 483.6 kJ
∆Hrxn = ∆H (products) - ∆H (reactants)
Target #5: I can define the term state function and be provide examples of
state functions.
State function - property of a system which is determined by its state (or conditions, such as
3
temperature & pressure) (see figure 5.10 on page 176); the value of a state function depends only upon
the present state of the system, not the path the system took to reach that state
State functions can be recognized by the abbreviation of the property.
If the abbreviation is a capitol
letter, the property is a state function. If the abbreviation is a lower case letter, then the prperty is not a
state function.
Practice: Which of the following are state functions?
a) potential energy
e) temperature
b) kinetic energy
f) pressure
c) heat
g) velocity
d) work
h) mass
Target #6: I can sketch an exothermic and endothermic energy diagram and
label the various parts.
Draw an energy diagram the following reactions. Label the ∆H, energy of reactants and
the energy of products.
CaO(s) + CO2(g)

CaCO3(s)
CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l)
∆H = -178 kJ

CH4(g) + 2 O2(g)
∆H = 890 kJ
Target #7: I can make stoichiometric calculations based upon a
thermochemical equation.
Consider the following reaction:
2 KClO3(s)  2 KCl(aq) + 3 O2(g) ; ∆H = -89.4 kJ
4
For this reaction, calculate the ∆H for the formation of:
a) 1.24 moles of O2
b) 4.89 grams of KCl
Target #8: I can differentiate between the terms heat capacity and specific
heat.

Bomb Calorimetry Problems
The following are examples of the various types of bomb problems that you may see on the test over this
unit. These problems are all based on the idea that a calorimeter has a certain heat capacity (usually
expressed in J/oC or kJ/oC). The heat capacity of the calorimeter is the amount of heat actually absorbed
by the calorimeter itself. The rigid steel container (the “bomb”) usually contains a known mass of the
substance to be ignited. The bomb is surrounded by water inside of the calorimeter. The energy change
of the reaction inside of the bomb is determined by measuring the increase in the temperature of the water
and of the other parts of the calorimeter.
Example #1: A 0.5269-gram sample of octane, C8H18, is placed in a bomb calorimeter known to have a
total heat capacity of 11.3 kJ/oC. The octane is ignited and the temperature increase of the calorimeter is
2.25oC. Calculate the amount of energy (in kJ/mol) released by this reaction.
Example #2: Camphor (C10H16O) has a heat of combustion of 5903.6 kJ/mol. When a 0.1204 g
sample of camphor is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases by 2.28oC. Calculate the
heat capacity of the calorimeter.
Example #3: A 1.05 g sample of benzoic acid is combusted completely in a bomb calorimeter. Calculate
the change in temperature given that the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 1.80 kJ/K and the heat of
combustion of benzoic acid is 26.4 kJ/g.
10
Example #4: The combustion of methanol (CH3OH) is 239 kJ/mol. A 3.750-g sample of methanol is
burned in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increased from 20.00oC to 22.90oC. If
the calorimeter contained 1.500 kg of water, calculate the heat capacity of the dry calorimeter.
Example #5: 1.048 g of benzene (C6H6) is placed in the bomb compartment of a bomb calorimeter. The
water which surrounds the bomb compartment has a mass of 945 g. When the benzene is burned, the
temperature increases from 23.640oC to 32.692oC. The heat capacity of the dry calorimeter is 891 J/oC.
Find the heat of combustion of benzene (in kJ/g and kJ/mol).
Extra Bomb Calorimetry Problems
1.
A quantity of 1.435 g of naphthalene (C10H8) was burned in a
constant-volume bomb calorimeter. Consequently, the temperature of the water
rose from 20.17oC to 25.84oC. If the quantity of water surrounding the
calorimeter was exactly 2000 grams, and the heat capacity of the dry calorimeter
was 1.80 kJ/oC, calculate the molar heat of combustion of naphthalene.
11
2.
A 0.828 gram sample of methanol (wood alcohol, CH3OH) is placed in a bomb
calorimeter along with enough oxygen gas to ensure complete combustion. The
calorimeter contains 1.35 kg of water, and the heat capacity of the calorimeter
interior (without the water) is 1.06 kJ/oC. The molar heat of combustion for
methanol is 725.9 kJ/mol. Assuming the initial temperature of the water is
23.10oC, what will be the final temperature of the water after combustion?
Target #11: I can state Hess’s law and use Hess’s Law to solve problems.
Hess’s Law - if a reaction is carried out in a series of steps, ∆H for the reaction is equal to the sum of
the enthalpy changes for the individual steps
Example 1: Find the ∆H for the following reaction using Hess’s Law and the equations that below:
C(graphite) + 2H2(g)

CH4(g)
(overall reaction)
We can calculate the enthalpy change indirectly using Hess’s Law. The following reactions involving C,
H2, and CH4 with O2 have been studied and the ∆Horxn values are accurately known:

CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g)
∆Horxn = -393.5 kJ
∆Horxn = -571.6 kJ
∆Horxn = -890.4 kJ
Since we want to obtain one equation containing only C and H2 as reactants and CH4 as product, we
must reverse (c) to get . . .
CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g) -------> CH4(g) + 2 O2(g)
∆Horxn = +890.4 kJ
The next step is to add the equations:

(c)
CO2(g) + 2 H2O(g) -------> CH4(g) + 2 O2(g)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------C(graphite) + 2H2(g) --------> CH4(g)
Example 2: Calculate the ∆H for the following reaction . . .

--------------------------∆Horxn = -74.7 kJ
∆Horxn = -393.5 kJ
∆Horxn = -285.8 kJ
∆Horxn = -2598.8 kJ
Solution . . . We want to eliminate O2, CO2, and H2O from the equation. First we reverse (c) in order to
get the C2H2(g) on the products side.

∆Horxn = -393.5 kJ
∆Horxn = -285.8 kJ
∆Horxn = +2598.8 kJ
Next, we multiply (a) by 4 and (b) by 2 and carry out the addition:

standard heat of formation.

substance from its elements at standard state conditions (25oC and 1 atm)


NaCl(s) ; ∆Hof = -410.9 kJ/mol
Table 5.3 and Appendix C in your text lists the standard enthalpies of formations of several compounds
and elements. A formation reaction is defined as one in which the reactants are elements in their
standard states and forming only ONE mole of product. Below are listed 2 examples of formation

∆Hof = -822.16 kJ/mol
