Thermochemistry
Definition: The study of the energy changes associated with a physical and/or
chemical change of a system.
Thermal Energy: arises from a particle’s position and motion.
Systems:
Chemical - _______________________________________________________
- _______________________________________________________
Surroundings
- ___________________________________________________
Open -____________________________________________________________
Closed - __________________________________________________________
Isolated - _________________________________________________________
Others:
Heat (q) - ________________________________________________________
Exothermic - ______________________________________________________
Endothermic - _____________________________________________________
Temperature - _____________________________________________________
Calculation:
q = mc∆T where
m = mass surroundings, g
c = specific heat capacity, _____________________
∆T = temperature change = ____________________
eg. Calculate the heat generated when 50.0 g of water (cH2O = 4.18 J/g•ºC)
changes temperature from 12.5ºC to 47.0ºC?
Solution: q = mc∆T
=
eg. Calculate the heat generated when 50.0 g of water and 125 g of the Al can (cAl
= 0.900 J/g•ºC) changes temperature from 12.5ºC to 47.0ºC?
Solution: q = mc∆T
= mH2O x cH2O x ∆T + mAl x cAl x ∆T
Heat Transfer and Energy Change
Chemical system energies, PE & KE, are sources of Enthalpy, H
- interactions between nuclei and electrons
- electron motions
- vibration of atoms within molecules
- rotation and translation of molecules
- nuclear potential energies
- electronic PE of atoms connected by chemical bonds and molecules connected
by forces of attraction
Enthalpy Change, ∆H
Results in the difference in enthalpies of the reactants and the products during a
change, due to:
- breakage of bonds or intermolecular forces ∆H = +ve (endo)
- formation of bonds or intermolecular forces ∆H = -ve (exo)
Determination of Enthalpy Change, ∆H
- H and ∆H cannot be directly measured
- measured relative to the energy transferred, heat (q), during the change in the
system
∆Hsys = - qsurr
= - mc∆Tsurr
eg. Calculate the enthalpy change for a combustion reaction which results in the
temperature of 500. mL of water in a 0.250 kg Al (cAl = 0.900 J/g•°C) tea
kettle rising from 20.0 °C to 95.0 °C.
∆H = - (mc∆TH2O + mc∆TAl) ;
= - (mcH2O + mcAl) ∆T
=
VH2O = mH2O as DH2O = 1.0 g/mL
This is an exothermic reaction showing the change in PE of the SYSTEM is equal
to the change in KE of the SURROUNDINGS
PE is that of position or the ability to work.
When objects that attract each other:
Get closer together, PE __
Move further apart, PE __
KE is that of motion.
average KE __ as T __
Chemical change involves 2 processes that alter the PE of atoms.
Bond breaking ____________ energy and PE of the atoms ___.
Bond forming ____________ energy and PE of the atoms ___.
Depending on which effect is greater, the net change in PE energy may be an
___________ or a ________.
The ___________________________________________________________, the
__________________ the bond.

3)
____________ intermediate reactions as necessary to _______ the coefficients
in the overall equation.
Remember to multiply the Ho values by the same multiplier.

4)
Determine the Horxn from the algebraic sum of Ho values for all the
intermediate steps.
5)
If applicable use
Hrxnº = nHfº (products) - nHfº (reactants)

Energy and Driving Forces:
The Laws of Thermodynamics
Spontaneous Reaction:
 given the required Ea, ________________ ___________the reaction
continues to proceed by itself
 may be slow or fast
Thermodynamics:
 Study of energy transformations.
 There are 3 Laws of Thermodynamics
– used to predict reaction spontaneity
1st Law of Thermodynamics
 Law of Conservation of Energy
 Total energy of the universe is constant
 Energy cannot be created or destroyed, just
transferred from one form to another
For a chemical reaction
∆Hºuniverse = __________________________________________
In a chemical reaction, the PE of the reactants and products results in the transfer of
energy from the:
1) surroundings to the chemical system (ENDO)
2) chemical system to the surroundings (EXO)
Enthalpy changes and Spontaneity
 Bond energy (BE): the minimum energy required to break one mole of bonds
between two atoms ______________
 Equals the energy released when 1 mole of bonds are formed, _________
 The greater the value, the more stable the bond
SO, the Enthalpy of reaction can also be calculated by:
∆Hreaction = ___________________________________________

∆Hreaction __________
 indicates the formation of stronger bonds and more stable compounds
 is most likely to be spontaneous reaction
Entropy Changes (∆S) and Spontaneity
 the greater the # of ways particles can arrange themselves, the less ordered
they are
 the greater the # of ways a particular state can be achieved, the more likely
that state is going to exist
Entropy , Sº
 The measure of disorder or randomness
 increased disorder or entropy favours spontaneity, ____________
2nd Law of Thermodynamics
∆Sºuniverse =
 disorder increases, since ____________
The following increases entropy:
1. The volume of a gas increases
2. The temperature of the system increases
3. Physical state solid to liquid to gas
4. Increase in the number of moles produced
5. Breaking complex molecules into smaller ones
3rd Law of Thermodynamics
 At 0K all motion ceases, the forces of attraction have reduced entropy to a
minimum
 S = 0 at T = 0K
 As a result as T increases, S must increase
 S is a measure of the energy needed to achieve a level of disorder by
overcoming the FA
 This is dependent on the substance and the temperature reached
 J/molK
 ∆Srxnº = ______________________________________
 ∆Srxnº _________________________________
Entropy Calculations
eg. Calculate ∆Sº for
2CO(g) +
O2(g)

2CO2(g)
∆Srxnº =  nSº products -  nSº reactants
=
___________________________________________________
This would mean it is nonspontaneous, but we need to consider the ∆Hrxnº
∆Hrxnº =  n∆H º products -  n∆H º reactants
=
Gibb’s Free Energy – Enthalpy and Entropy
 Unites the 2 reaction driving forces
 ∆G = ∆H – T∆S
If:
∆G < 0
∆G = 0
∆G > 0

Calculating ∆Gº from ∆Gfº
 these values are not in the textbook, but are in the reference booklet
Use:
∆Gº = ____________________________________
Predicting Change in Spontaneity
 Temperature and equilibrium
As
∆G = 0
at equilibrium and ∆Gº = ∆H – T∆S
then: 0 = ∆H – T∆S
 this gives the temperature at which the system changes spontaneity
 need to examine ∆H and ∆S to determine if the reaction is spontaneous above
or below the temperature calculated
eg. For previous example:
2CO(g)
+
O2(g) 
2CO2(g)
T = ∆H
∆S
=
as ∆H –ve and ∆S –ve , then spontaneous at low T

Chemical Kinetics
Definition: the study of reaction rates
Rate of Reaction: The change in concentration, ∆[ ], of a
_________ or a __________ per unit of time
 can be determined from a [ ] vs time graph
Average Rate of Rxn: from the slope of the secant drawn between
2 points on the curve over a given time interval.
Instantaneous Rate of Rxn: from the slope of the tangent to the
curve at a specific moment in time.
Reaction Rates are given as:

Collision Theory of Rates of Reactions
The 2 requirements that determine whether a potential collision
between molecules result in a reaction are:
1) Sufficient energy
2) Correct Orientation
If both of these conditions are meet then an unstable species, called
the activated complex is formed.
