Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 2

Energy

Energy is the capacity to do work (to displace or move matter). Energy literally means work within; however, an object does not contain work. Potential energy is energy of position or composition. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
Energy has the units of joules (J or kg . m2/s2)
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 3

Ek = mv2

Energy

In chemistry, energy is stored in chemical bonds. When bonds are made, energy is released. When bonds are broken, energy is absorbed.

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

Heat

Energy that is transferred between objects that have a temperature difference

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

The main form of energy in chemistry is HEAT!

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

Energy that flows from something


warm to something cooler

A hotter substance gives KE to a


cooler one

When heat is transferred (lost or


gained), there is a change in the energy within the substance
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 7

Thermochemistry

Study of the heat changes that occur during a chemical reaction The study of the quantity of heat absorbed or given off by chemical reactions. It is a part of Thermodynamics dealing with energy changes associated with physical and chemical reactions
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 8

System and Surroundings.

System - portion of the universe under study Surrounding - everything else

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

Type of Systems

Open System - can exchange energy and matter through boundary Close System - can exchange energy through boundary Isolated System - can exchange neither with surroundings

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

Example

You place 10.0g of LiOH in a Styrofoam cup of water. What is the system, and what are the surroundings?

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

11

Internal Energy (U)

Internal energy (U) is the total energy


contained within a system

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

12

Internal Energy (U)

Part of U is kinetic energy (from molecular motion)

Translational motion, rotational motion, vibrational motion. Collectively, these are sometimes called thermal

energy

Part of U is potential energy


Intermolecular and intramolecular forces of attraction, locations of atoms and of bonds. Collectively these are sometimes called chemical

energy

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

13

Heat (q)

Technically speaking, heat is not energy. Heat is energy transfer between a system and its surroundings, caused by a temperature difference.
Thermal equilibrium occurs when the system and surroundings reach the same temperature and heat transfer stops.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

14

Work (w)

Like heat, work is an energy transfer between a system and its surroundings. Unlike heat, work is caused by a force moving through a distance (heat is caused by a temperature difference).

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

15

Work (w)

A negative quantity of work signifies that the system loses energy. A positive quantity of work signifies that the system gains energy. There is no such thing as negative energy nor positive energy; the sign of work (or heat) signifies the direction of energy flow.
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 16

Prentice Hall 2005

Pressure-Volume Work

For now we will consider only pressure-volume work. work (w) = PDV

How would the magnitude of DV compare to the original gas volume if the two weights (initial and final) were identical?

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

17

State

The state of a system: its exact condition at a fixed instant. State is determined by the kinds and amounts of matter present, the structure of this matter at the molecular level, and the prevailing pressure and temperature.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

18

State Function

A state function is a property that has a unique value that depends only the present state of a system, and does not depend on how the state was reached (does not depend on the history of the system).

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

19

Law of Conservation of Energy

Law of Conservation of Energy in a physical or chemical change, energy can be exchanged between a system and its surroundings, but no energy can be created or destroyed.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

20

First Law of Thermodynamics

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Inference: the internal energy change of a system is simply the difference between its final and initial states: DU = Ufinal Uinitial
Additional inference: if energy change occurs only as heat (q) and/or work (w), then: DU = q + w
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 21

Prentice Hall 2005

First Law: Sign Conventions

Energy entering a system carries a positive sign:


heat absorbed by the system, or work done on the system

Energy leaving a system carries a negative sign

heat given off by the system work done by the system


Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 22

Prentice Hall 2005

Sample Problem 1
If 200 Kcal of heat is absorbed by a system and 50 Kcal or work is done on the surroundings, calculate the change in energy.

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

23

Sample Problem 2
A gas does 135 J of work while expanding, and at the same time it absorbs 156 J of heat. What is the change in internal energy?

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

24

Conceptual Example
The internal energy of a fixed quantity of an ideal gas depends only on its temperature. If a sample of an ideal gas is allowed to expand against a constant pressure at a constant temperature, (a) what is DU for the gas? (b) Does the gas do work? (c) Is any heat exchanged with the surroundings?

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

25

Heats of Reaction (qrxn)

qrxn is the quantity of heat

exchanged between a reaction system and its surroundings.

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

26

Exothermic and Endothermic

An exothermic reaction gives off heat

An endothermic reaction absorbs heat

In an isolated system, the temperature increases. The system goes from higher to lower energy; qrxn is negative. In an isolated system, the temperature decreases. The system goes from lower to higher energy; qrxn is positive.
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

27

Conceptualizing an Exothermic Reaction


Surroundings are at 25 C
Typical situation: some heat is released to the surroundings, some heat is absorbed by the solution.

32.2 C

35.4 C

25 C

Hypothetical situation: all heat is instantly released to the surroundings. Heat = qrxn
Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

In an isolated system, all heat is absorbed by the solution. Maximum temperature rise.
28

Internal Energy Change at Constant Volume


For a system where the reaction is carried out at constant volume, DV = 0 and DU = qV. All the thermal energy produced by conversion from chemical energy is released as heat; no P-V work is done.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

29

Internal Energy Change at Constant Volume

For a system where the reaction is carried out at constant pressure, DU = qP P D V or


DU + P D V = qP

Most of the thermal energy is released as heat.


Some work is done to expand the system against the surroundings (push back the atmosphere).
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 30

Prentice Hall 2005

Enthalpy and Enthalpy Change


Enthalpy is the sum of
the internal energy and the pressurevolume product of a system:
The evolved H2 pushes back the atmosphere; work is done at constant pressure.

H = U + PV
For a process carried out at constant pressure, qP = DU + PDV so qP = DH
Prentice Hall 2005

Mg + 2 HCl MgCl2 + H2

Most reactions occur at constant pressure, so for most reactions, the heat evolved equals the enthalpy change. Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M.
GUEVARRA 31

Properties of Enthalpy

Enthalpy is an extensive property.

It depends on how much of the substance is present.

Since U, P, and V are all state functions, enthalpy H must be a state function also. Enthalpy changes have unique values. DH = qP
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

Two logs on a fire give off twice as much heat as does one log.

Enthalpy change depends only on the initial and final states. In a chemical reaction we call the initial state the ____ and the final state the ____.

Prentice Hall 2005

32

Enthalpy Diagrams

Values of DH are measured experimentally. Negative values indicate exothermic reactions. Positive values indicate endothermic reactions.

A decrease in enthalpy during the reaction; DH is negative.


Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

An increase in enthalpy during the reaction; DH is positive.


33

Reversing Reactions

DH changes sign when a process is reversed. Therefore, a cyclic process has the value DH = 0.
Same magnitude; different signs.

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

34

Thermochemical Reactions

Consists of a chemical equation together with the value of H value that corresponds to the equation when used in molar quantities

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

36

Sample Problem 2

The complete combustion of liquid octane, C8H18, to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and liquid water at 25 C and at a constant pressure gives off 47.9 kJ of heat per gram of octane. Write a chemical equation to represent this information.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

37

H in Stoichiometric Calculations

For problem-solving, heat evolved (exothermic reaction) can be thought of as a product. Heat absorbed (endothermic reaction) can be thought of as a reactant. We can generate conversion factors involving DH. For example, the reaction: H2(g) + Cl2(g) 2 HCl(g) can be used to write: DH = 184.6 kJ

1 mol H2

Calorimetry and Calorimeter

We measure heat flow using calorimetry. A calorimeter is a device used to make this measurement. A coffee cup calorimeter may be used for measuring heat involving solutions.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

40

Bomb Calorimeter
A bomb calorimeter is used to find heat of combustion; the bomb contains oxygen and a sample of the material to be burned.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

41

Calorimetry, Heat Capacity, Specific Heat

Heat evolved in a reaction is absorbed by the calorimeter and its contents. In a calorimeter we measure the temperature change of water or a solution to determine the heat absorbed or evolved by a reaction.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

42

Calorimetry, Heat Capacity, Specific Heat

The heat capacity (C) of a system is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of the system by 1 C. C = q/DT (units are J/C) Molar heat capacity is the heat capacity of one mole of a substance. The specific heat (s) is the heat capacity of one gram of a pure substance (or homogeneous mixture). s = C/m = q/(mDT) q = s m DT
Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 43

Prentice Hall 2005

Heat Capacity: A Thought Experiment

Place an empty iron pot weighing 5 lb on the burner of a stove. Place an iron pot weighing 1 lb and containing 4 lb water on a second identical burner (same total mass). Turn on both burners. Wait five minutes. Which pot handle can you grab with your bare hand? Iron has a lower specific heat than does water. It takes less heat to warm up iron than it does water.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

44

Sample Problem

Calculate the heat capacity of an aluminum block that must absorb 629 J of heat from its surroundings in order for its temperature to rise from 22 C to 145 C.

Prentice Hall 2005

Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA

45

More on Specific Heat


q = mass x specific heat x DT

If DT is positive (temperature increases), q is positive and heat is gained by the system. If DT is negative (temperature decreases), q is negative and heat is lost by the system. The calorie, while not an SI unit, is still used to some extent. Water has a specific heat of 1 cal/(g oC). 4.184 J = 1 cal One food calorie (Cal or kcal) is actually equal to 1000 cal. Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M.

Measuring Enthalpy Changes for Chemical Reactions


For a reaction carried out in a calorimeter, the heat evolved by a reaction is absorbed by the calorimeter and its contents.
qrxn = qcalorimeter qcalorimeter = mass x specific heat x DT

By measuring the temperature change that occurs in a calorimeter, and using the specific heat and mass of the contents, the heat evolved (or absorbed) by a reaction can be determined and the enthalpy change calculated.

Bomb Calorimetry: Reactions at Constant Volume

Some reactions, such as combustion, cannot be carried out in a coffee-cup calorimeter. In a bomb calorimeter, a sample of known mass is placed in a heavy-walled bomb, which is then pressurized with oxygen.

Since the reaction is carried out at constant volume, qrxn = qcalorimeter = DU but in many cases the value of DU is a good approximation of DH.
Prentice Hall 2005 Engr. NORMAN GIOVANNI M. GUEVARRA 55

Hesss Law of Constant Heat Summation

Some reactions cannot be carried out as written. Consider the reaction: C(graphite) + O2(g) CO(g). If we burned 1 mol C in mol O2, both CO and CO2 would probably form. Some C might be left over. However

Hesss Law of Constant Heat Summation

enthalpy change is a state function. The enthalpy change of a reaction is the same whether the reaction is carried out in one step or through a number of steps. Hesss Law: If an equation can be expressed as the sum of two or more other equations, the enthalpy change for the desired equation is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the other equations.
