Thermodynamics
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Thermodynamics is study of energy, heat
  and work. | 
 
  |  | As chemists we are interested in heat
  changes in chemical and physical changes. | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Aim: to predict whether a change (both
  physical and chemical ) will occur spontaneously when left to itself--do we
  have to do anything other than mix the reactants together to make it occur? | 
 
  |  |  | 
Chemical reaction and
energy
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | In a chemical reaction heat is released
  or absorbed by our system to or from the surroundings. In a chemical reaction
  convert energy in bonds into heat energy (and vice versa). | 
 
  |  | We can measure the energy changes in
  these processes. |

  |  | Thermochemical equation. eg. | 
 
  |  | H2 (g) +  O2 (g) ---> 2H2O(l)
  DH =- 256  kJ; | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | DH 
  is called the enthalpy of reaction. | 
 
  |  | if	 DH is + reaction is called endothermic | 
 
  |  | if DH is - reaction is called exothermic |

Spontaneous Processes
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | A spontaneous reactions is one that
  occurs without us having to do anything to it (once it has started). (No
  external energy input) | 
 
  |  | Name some spontaneous processes. | 
 
  |  | Note that one direction is spontaneous,
  the reverse is not. | 
 
  |  |  | 
"We want to come up..."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | We want to come up with a way of
  predicting whether something will be spontaneous. | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | It has been observed that many
  exothermic processes are spontaneous. | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Question: Does exothermicity guarantee
  that something is spontaneous? | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  |  | 
"Look at H2O(s)"
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Look at H2O(s) g H2O(l)    DHorxn=1.44kcal | 
Entropy, S
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Entropy (S, So) is a measure
  of the disorder, or randomness of a system. |

Entropy info
"For a rxn:"
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | For a rxn: D Srxn=
  sum of entropy of all the products minus the sum of the entropy of all the reactants. | 
 
  |  |  | 
Get entropy increases
Is there an entropy
increase when
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | A log burns in a fireplace | 
 
  |  | Water vapor condenses on a cold surface | 
 
  |  | A solid metal melts | 
 
  |  | Water boils | 
Does a positive entropy
change insure a spontaneous process
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Look at H2O(l) g H2O(s) | 
 
  |  | DS<0
  but | 
Second law of
thermodynamics
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | The entropy of the universe increases
  in a spontaneous process and is equal to zero in a system at equilibrium. | 
 
  |  | Not always easy to calculate the
  entropy change of the universe. | 
 
  |  | Define a new quantity, G,  Gibbs free energy. G refers to the system
  we are studying. | 
 
  |  |  | 
"DG = D H
-..."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | DG
  = D H - T D S | 
 
  |  | This equation  combines the exothermicity and positive
  entropy criteria. | 
 
  |  | Criterion for spontaneity | 
 
  |  | If DG < 0 | 
 
  |  | If DG > 0 | 
 
  |  | If DG = 0 | 
How does DG = D H
- T D S
work?
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Look at H2O(l) g H2O(g)
  water boiling | 
 
  |  | DH=
  10.6kcal and DS =0.0284kcal | 
 
  |  | DG
  = DH -T DS | 
 
  |  | at 50oC DG = | 
 
  |  | at 100oC DG = | 
 
  |  | at 120oC DG = | 
 
  |  |  | 
DG = D H - T D

  |  |  | 
 
  |  | An exothermic rxn that has a positive
  entropy change is | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | An endothermic rxn that has a negative
  entropy change is | 
DG = D H - T D
S
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | An exothermic rxn that has a negative
  entropy change is spontaneous | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | An endothermic rxn that has a positive
  entropy change is spontaneous | 
Calorimetry: how to
measure heat changes in reactions
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Measure heat change (temp inc or dec)
  in a quantity of water or solution that is in contact with the reaction of
  interest and is isolated from the surroundings. | 
Slide 34
To calculate the amt of
heat (Q) absorbed or released
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Q= m x SH x DT | 
 
  |  | Q = heat change; 					DT = temperature
  change = Tfinal-Tinitial | 
 
  |  | Add heat, temp inc; remove heat temp
  dec | 
 
  |  | Specific heat (SH) = the amount of heat
  (cal) required to raise the temperature of one g of a substance by 1°C | 
"Units of SH : cal..."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Units of SH : cal/(g oC);				
  [SH of H2O= 1.00 cal/(g oC); 				of Al = 0.21 cal/(g oC)] | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Calc the amt of heat liberated (in cal
  and kcal) from 366 g of aluminum when it cools from 77.0oC to 12.0oC. | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | 10kJ of heat is supplied to 1000g of H2O
  and to 1000g of Al. Calc the inc in temp for both. | 
 
  |  |  | 
"To raise the temp
of..."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | To raise the temp of a mass of water
  from 25oC to 50oC requires 7.5 kcal. What is the mass
  of the water? | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | A sample of Al weighs 67 g. If 854 cal
  of heat are required to raise the temp of this sample from 25oC to
  85oC, calculate the specific heat of aluminum. | 
 
  |  |  | 
Fuel value
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Fuel value is amt of energy per gram of
  food. | 
 
  |  | One nutritional Calorie (C) = 1 kcal =
  1000 cal;	   1 cal = 4.184 J; 1 kcal=1
  Cal =4.184 kJ | 
 
  |  | 8.7: A 1.00 g sample of a candy bar
  (which contains a lot of sugar was burned in a bomb calorimeter. A 3.0oC
  temp increase was observed for 1.00 x 103 g of water. The entire
  candy bar weighed 2.5 ounces. Calc  the
  fuel value (in nutritional Calories) of the sample and the total caloric
  content of the candy bar. | 
 
  |  |  | 
"8.8:"
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | 8.8: If the fuel value of 1.00g of a
  certain carbohydrate is 3.00 nutritional Calories, how many grams of water
  must be present in the calorimeter to record a 5.00oC change in
  temp? | 
Kinetics (Reaction Rates)
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Thermodynamics tells us whether a
  reaction should occur spontaneously, but does not tell us how fast the
  reaction will occur. Kinetics tells us | 
 
  |  | For example, thermodynamics says that
  diamond will spontaneously change into graphite. | 
 
  |  | Kinetics tells us | 
"Look at H2(g)"
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | Look at H2(g) + I2(g)
  g 2HI(g) | 
 
  |  | Let’s envision how the rreaction might
  occur on a molecular basis. | 
 
  |  | To react | 
 
  |  | 1. H2 must collide with I2 | 
 
  |  | 2. There must be enough energy to break
  a H-H and a I-I bond to initiate reaction | 
 
  |  | 3. The molecules must collide in the
  correct geometry. | 
"A molecule that is
moving..."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | A molecule that is moving has kinetic
  energy; faster the motion, the greater the KE. When molecules collide some of
  the KE is changed into vibrational energy of the bonds . Sometimes there is
  enough energy gained through collision to break a bond and initiate reaction.
  If the energy is not enough to break the bond, the molecules bounce of one
  another with no reaction occurring. | 
 
  |  | So there is some minimum collision
  energy below which no reaction occurs. | 
Activation energy, Ea
Slide 44
Factors that affect
reaction rate
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | I. Structure of reacting species:				A.
  oppositely charged species often 		    
  react faster than neutral 
  species.	   	B. bond strength
  can influence rxn rate 	    (Ea)
  							C. size and shape of molecule can be 		     important | 
 
  |  |  | 
"II."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | II. Concentration of reactants: if  increase the conc of the reactants: | 
"III."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | III. Increase the temperature: | 
"IV."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | IV. Physical state of reactants:  reactions in solution (liquids) are often
  very fast. In the solid state molecules have limited motion,  in the gas phase have large distances between
  molecules and not many collisions so these reactions may be slower. In the
  liquid phase the molecules (ions) are able to move and are close to each
  other. | 
"V."
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | V. Add a catalyst. A catalyst speeds up
  the rate of reaction by | 
 
  |  |  | 
 
  |  | . The catalyst generally works by
  giving a different pathway (of lower energy) for the reaction to occur. A
  catalyst is not used up (consumed) in a reaction. The catalyst appears to be
  unchanged at the end. | 
 
  |  | Biological catalysts: enzymes |

  |  |  |

  |  |  | 
 
  |  | H2(g) + I2(g) g
  2HI(g)  high P, Au catalyst	 rate = k |

  |  | A reaction is found to be second order
  in A and third order in B. Write the rate equation. |
