First Law of Thermodynamics • First law can be written as: DE = q + w where q = heat involved in the process and w = work done by or to the system. • Work can be electrical or pressure –volume • Work = force acting over some distance: w = d x F (referenced to the system). • During reactions often there is an expansion of gases against some pressure where pressure is equal to the force per unit area: or . • Work is obtained by substitution: • w = d x F = d x (PxA) or • w = PV. • The first law can be restated as E = q PV.
Energy and Enthalpy • From the first law: q = E + PV. • With no change in volume the equation simplifies to qV = E. • At constant pressure: qP = E + PV. • There are times when both volume and pressure can change; the heat involved in the reaction is then a more complicated function of E. • Enthalpy: the heat output at constant pressure. H = E + PV. • In general, H = E + PV + VP. • At constant pressure, a change in enthalpy is given by: H = E + PV = qP. • Normally, H and E are fairly close to each other in magnitude. In the combustion of propane (see book), E = 2043 kJ, H = 2041 kJ and w = PV = 2kJ.
Spontaneous Processes • Spontaneous process: one that occurs without any continuous external influence; it may not occur rapidly. E.g. combustion of hydrogen with oxygen spontaneous; decomposition of water never occurs spontaneously. H2(g) + O2(g) ½H2O(l) E.g.2 Weak acid HF(aq) + H2O(aq) F(aq) + H3O+(aq) Ka = 3.52x104 E.g. 3 Solubility of solids. AgCl(s) Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq) Ksp = 1.8x1010 • Moves to equilibrium amounts of reactants and product. • Rate of spontaneous change related to ratio of rate constants for forward and reverse reactions. • Extent of reaction related to energy difference between forward and reverse reactions (H). • Goal: Determine criteria necessary to predict spontaneity.
Enthalpy, Entropy, and Spontaneous Processes: Review. • Negative value for enthalpy thought to be criterion for spontaneity since most reactions with negative H are spontaneous, but exceptions exist: • The reverse of the spontaneous reaction in not spontaneous. Reactions can only be spontaneous in one direction. • Qc compared to Kc indicates the direction of the reaction (will be related to the thermodynamic quantity soon). E.g. determine the direction of reaction when 0.100M acetic acid (Ka = 1.75x105), 0.100 M sodium acetate, and 0.100 M HCl are mixed together. Solution: LeChatelier’s principle says reaction shifted to the left. What about when the reaction is reversed?
ENTROPY • Entropy: thermodynamic quantity that is measure of randomness of system. • All changes tend to increase in randomness (second law of thermodynamics). Stotal = Sfinal Sinitial Stotal =Ssys + Ssurr 0. • Ssys is sometimes negative, but is more than offset by Ssurr. • S is positive for a transition from ordered to less ordered system (such as with melting and vaporization) and negative for the reverse. E.g. determine the sign of S for the following changes (what about the reverse of these?): N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) CaCO3(s) Ca(s) + CO2(g) H2(g) + O2(g) H2O(l) H2O(l) H2O(s)
Entropy and the Second Law • Second Law: all systems tend towards an increase in the randomness of the system. In terms of entropy, the total entropy of the universe always increases. • Stotal =Ssys + Ssurr 0. • Srev = Sfwd. • S of phase change determined from heat of phase change. S = H/T. E.g. Determine S of melting and vaporization for water. Hfus = 6.0kJ/mol and Hvap = 40.8 kJ/mol. • Generally, Sfus < Svap. Entropy of s < l < g. • Since S = H/T, we can determine temperature of phase change (mp or bp) if H and S of phase change are known. E.g. Determine boiling point of chlorine if Hvap = +6.41kJ/mol & Svap =+37.3 J/Kmol.
Entropy and Probability • Randomness is related to the probability of finding a molecule in a particular microstate; E.g. determine the probability of having perfectly order system (HH) when: • Two microstates (heads, H, and tails,T) of same exact energy (same likelihood of existing). • Two particles. Then the possible states are: HH, TT, TH, HT. Probability, P, of perfectly order system 25% (PHH = 2-2*100%). E.g.2 determine PHHH for 3 particles. • Possible states: HHH, TTT, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT,THT, TTH. (PHHH = 2-3*100%). • Ludwig Boltzmann = statistical approach to entropy, S, given by S = klnW where k = Boltzmann's const. = R/N = 1.38x1023J/K. • W = total # of ways that all atoms in a sample can be arranged and still have same energy. E.g. Determine molar entropy of CO (2 states) and HCl (1 state) molecules in a crystal.
Entropy and Probability • Third Law = perfectly ordered crystal has zero entropy. • entropy change when molecules filling a container after expansion is related probability of this expansion and is given by the relationship (constant T and n): E.g. determine the entropy change that occurs when a gas expands to twice its initial volume. E.g.2 twice it’s initial pressure.
Entropy and Temperature • At absolute zero there is no molecular motion and the S of a perfectly order system is zero. • Entropy expressed in absolute quantities. • Entropy increases with temperature. • Entropy increases dramatically as the melting and boiling points. • Standard Molar Entropies, So,& So. • Standard molar entropy, So: entropy of 1 mol of a compound at 1 atm and 25°C. • Entropy of a compound is the total entropy. Not relative to the reference state. • As with Ho it is convenient to present all entropies at reference set of conditions. • As with Ho, So of the reaction can be determined. For general reaction aA +bB + cC + ... mM + nN + oO + ... So= (mSM + nSN + ...) (aSA + bSB + ...). E.g. determine So of the reaction using data in the table from the text.: NH3(g) 3/2 H2(g) + ½ N2(g)
GIBB'S FREE ENERGY • Spontaneity can also be expressed without Ssurr. • Recall: Stotal = Ssys + Ssurr 0 and • Ssurr = H/T. • Combining: Stotal = SsysH/T 0 or • TStotal = G = H TSsys 0 • Gibb's Free Energy, G and in general terms is G = H TS. Criterion for spontaneity is G 0. Always found to be true. • If H and S are known, spontaneity of reaction can be determined. • Possible signs of enthalpy and entropy: E.g. determine Go for the melting of water. Ho = 6.03 kJ/mol; So = 22.1 J/K at 10°C.
G – Temperature Dependence • Spontaneity: Reaction becomes spontaneous when G goes from + to . We use G = 0 to tell us when reaction just becomes spontaneous or 0 = H TS or T = H/S. E.g. determine the temperature at which the synthesis of HI(g) becomes spontaneous. Ho = +52.96 kJ and So = +166.4 J/mol H2(g) + I2(g) 2HI(g)
Standard Free Energy Changes for Reactions Free Energy is a state function and an extensive property so that its value is dictated by the number of moles appearing in the equation. ½ N2(g) + 3/2 H2(g) NH3(g) Go = 16.5 kJ N2(g) + 3 H2(g) 2 NH3(g) Go = 33.0 kJ
Standard free energies of formation, DGfO. • Go = 0 for elements in most stable form (as with enthalpy). • Free Energies are listed in tables and can be used to determine G of reaction and spontaneity. • For general reaction aA +bB + cC + ... mM + nN + oO + ... E.g. Determine G for 4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g). • As with enthalpy reactions can be coupled to determine G for unknown reaction. • Determine G: Fe2O3(s) + 3/2C(g) 3/2CO2 + 2Fe(s). • Given: • Fe2O3(s) 2Fe(s) + 3/2O2(g) Go = +742 kJ • 3/2 C(gr) +3/2O2(g) 3/2CO2(g) Go = 592 kJ.
EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANTS AND G • Equilibrium constant for a reaction aA + bB +... mM + nN + ... is defined as • Tells how far to right reaction proceeds. • Large value mostly products. • Small value mostly reactants. • At equilibrium this equation must always be obeyed no matter what relative amount of reactant and was started with. • Reaction quotient, Q, defined in same way as K but refers to some initial condition that might not be at equilibrium. • These two are related to G by the equation: • G = RTln(Q/K). When Q = K equilibrium exists and G = 0.
EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANTS AND DG° • K and Q often separated by rewriting: G = Go + RTlnQ and Go = RTlnK. • From initial conditions and Go, the free energy of the reaction can be determined. E.g. determine G at 25°C for the reaction: H2O(l) H+ (aq) + OH(aq) if the concentration of [H+] = 1.00x105 M; [OH] = 1.00x105 M • K can be determined under standard conditions if G is known. E.g. Determine K for 3NO(g) N2O(g) + NO2(g) E.g.2 Determine K for NH4NO3(s) N2O(g) + 2H2O(g). • Go can be determined if K is known. E.g. determine Go for the solubility of AgCl(s) if its Ksp = 1.8x1010; E.g. 2 determine Go for ionization of HF in water. Ka = 3.5x104.
