Definitions: recall physics2
Energy (E): The ability to do work; measured in Joules (J)
Work: Amount of energy applied or transferred over a
distance Potential Energy (Ep):
Energy of object due to its position or composition; stored energy
Kinetic Energy (Ek): Energy of object due to its motion; movement
energy
Definitions: recall physics3
Thermal Energy (H): Total quantity of kinetic & potential energy within
a substance, Ep + Ek = H
Heat (q): The transfer of thermal energy from a warm
body to cooler body
Temperature: A measure of the average kinetic energy of
particles in a substance/object
Definitions: new ones4
Chemical System: The group of reactants & products being studied
Surroundings: The environment in which the chemical
reaction takes place; substance that is not part of the reaction
Open System Matter & Energy able to leave system
Closed System Energy able to leave system
Isolated System Neither matter nor energy able to leave system
System and Surroundings
can exchange energy and matter with surroundings
universe = system + surroundings
• the system is the sample being observed• the surroundings is everything else• interactions between a system and its surroundings involve exchange of
energy and matter
can exchange energy, not matter, with surroundings
cannot exchange matter or energy with surroundings
Three types of systems based on this type of exchange are:
CalorimetryMeasuring energy changes in a reaction
We measure the ΔT of the surroundings and calculate the thermal energy, q, lost or gained by the surroundings
-qsurroundings = +qsystem
q = mcΔT

ΔT = Tfinal – Tinitial
Measurable properties of a system include:volume, mass, pressure, temperature, and specific heat capacity.
Calculating the Amount of Heat Entering and Leaving a System
A calculated property of a system includes heat (Q) that enters or leaves an object.
When heat enters a system, ΔT is positive and so is Q.
Specific Heat Capacity,(c);

The First Law of Thermodynamics:Energy is Conserved
The first law of thermodynamics states that:Energy can be converted from one form to another but cannot be created or destroyed.Since any change in energy of the universe must be zero,
ΔEuniverse = ΔEsystem + ΔEsurroundings = 0ΔEsystem = –ΔEsurroundings
• if a system gains energy, that energy comes from the surroundings
• if a system loses energy, that energy enters the surroundings
A 400 g iron rod is heated in a bunsen flame and then plunged into an insulated beaker containing 1.00 L of water (1000 g). The original temperature of the water was 20ºC. After the iron rod and the water have reached the same temperature, it is 32.8ºC. (specific heat capacity of iron is 0.45 J/gºC , and water is 4.18J/gºC) What was the original temperature of the iron rod?
USING THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
EnthalpyOne way chemists express thermochemical changes is by a variable called enthalpy, H. The change in enthalpy, ΔH, of a system can be measured.It depends only on the initial and final states of the system, and is represented by
ΔH = ΔE + Δ(PV)
For reactions of solids and liquids in solutions, Δ(PV) = 0
If heat enters a system• ΔH is positive• the process is endothermic
If heat leaves a system• ΔH is negative• the process is exothermic
The Second Law of Thermodynamics
When in thermal contact, energy from hot particles will transfer to cold particles until the energy is equally distributed and thermal equilibrium is reached.
The second law of thermodynamics states that:
When two objects are in thermal contact, heat is transferred from the object at a higher temperature to the object at the lower temperature until both objects are the same temperature (in thermal equilibrium)
Definitions: new ones15
Enthalpy (H): another term for thermal energy Enthalpy Change (ΔH): the change in thermal
energy from reactants to products; this equals q under constant pressure:
ΔHsystem = qsystem ΔHsystem = Hproducts – Hreactants
Where qsurroundings is the measurable quantity Endothermic:
intake of energy, -qsurroundings & +qsystem & + ΔH Exothermic:
release of energy, +qsurroundings & -qsystem & - ΔH
Comparing Categories of Enthalpy Changes:
Enthalpy of Solution
The orange arrow shows the overall ΔH.
Three processes occur when a substance dissolves, each with a ΔH value.
1. bonds between solute molecules or ions break2. bonds between solvent molecules break3. bonds between solvent molecules and solute molecules or ions form
Sum of the enthalpy changes: enthalpy of solution, ΔHsolution
The ΔH for one phase change is the negative of the ΔH for the opposite phase change.
Heat must be added to or removed from a substance in order for the phase of the substance to change.
The ΔH for each phase change has a particular symbol.
For example, ΔHmelt is called the enthalpy of melting.
Thermochemical Equations and Calorimetry
Chemical reactions involve• initial breaking of chemical bonds (endothermic)• then formation of new bonds (exothermic)
ΔHr is the difference between the total energy required to break bonds and the total energy released when bonds form.
Thermochemical EquationsThermochemical equations include the enthalpy change.
The enthalpy term can also be written beside the equation.
Exothermic reaction:
CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) + 890.8 kJ
Endothermic reaction:
N2(g) + 2O2(g) + 66.4 kJ → 2NO2(g)
CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) ΔHr = –890.8 kJ
N2(g) + 2O2(g) → 2NO2(g) ΔHr = +66.4 kJ
Enthalpy DiagramsEnthalpy diagrams clearly show the relative enthalpies of reactants and products.
• For exothermic reactions, reactants have a larger enthalpy than products and are drawn above the products.
• For endothermic reactions, the products have a larger enthalpy and are drawn above the reactants.
Molar Enthalpy Change ΔHn:
21
Molar Enthalpy Change (ΔHn): enthalpy change associated with any change (physical, chemical or nuclear) in one mole of a substance; J/mol or kJ/mol
ΔHrxn = nΔHn
Common Molar Enthalpies22
Example: Ethanol is used to disinfect skin before
receiving a flu shot. How does this feel on your skin? The enthalpy of vaporization (ΔHvap)of ethanol is 38.6 kJ/mol. What is the enthalpy change (ΔHrxn) of this reaction if 1.0g of ethanol is rubbed on your skin?

Determine ΔHcomb for 15.0 g of propane.
LEARNING CHECK
The molar mass of propane: 44.1 g/molTherefore, 15.0 g is 0.340 mol
ΔHcomb = ΔH°combΔHcomb = (0.340 mol) (–2219.2 kJ/mol)ΔHcomb = 755 kJ/mol
The symbol for a standard enthalpy change is ΔH°, read as "delta H standard" or, perhaps more commonly, as "delta H nought“. The standard enthalpy change of a reaction is the enthalpy change which occurs when equation quantities of materials react under standard conditions, and with everything in its standard state (SATP (25° C and 100 kPa))
