  1. Calculating Heats of Reaction • Hess’s Law and Heats of Formation

  2. Introduction • If we want to measure the heat of reaction of methane, we just burn a known amount of methane gas in oxygen and measure the heat evolved by using a calorimeter. • But, sometimes we don’t want consume the material when we are interested in the heat of reaction. • What is the heat of formation of a diamond?

  3. Hess’s Law • There is a way to measure the heat of reaction of a compound in a way that does not require destroying the compound. • We use Hess’s Law: • If you add two or more thermochemical equations to give a final equation, then you can also add the heats of reaction to give the final heat of reaction.

  4. Hess’s Law • The law is easier to use than it is to say. • For example: • Find the heat of reaction to go from diamond to graphite. • C(diamond) → C(graphite)

  5. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • We can’t measure this directly, because the process is too slow. • But we do know the following information: • C(graphite) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ

  6. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • If we rearrange the first equation ... • C(graphite) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ

  7. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • If we rearrange the first equation ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ

  8. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... add them together ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ

  9. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... add them together ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • CO2(g) + C(diamond) + O2(g) → C(graphite) + CO2(g) + O2(g)

  10. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... and simplify ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • CO2(g) + C(diamond) + O2(g) → C(graphite) + CO2(g) + O2(g)

  11. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... and simplify ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • CO2(g) + C(diamond) + O2(g) → C(graphite) + CO2(g) + O2(g)

  12. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... and simplify ... • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • C(diamond) → C(graphite)

  13. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • ... we get the desired equation. • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • C(diamond) → C(graphite)

  14. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • Now, we add the heats of reaction. • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • C(diamond) → C(graphite)

  15. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • Now, we add the heats of reaction. • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • C(diamond) → C(graphite) ∆H = +393.5 kJ − 395.4 kJ

  16. Hess’s Law • C(diamond) → C(graphite) • Now, we add the heats of reaction. • CO2(g) → C(graphite) + O2(g) ∆H = +393.5 kJ • C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2(g) ∆H = −395.4 kJ • C(diamond) → C(graphite) ∆H = − 1.9 kJ • This is an exothermic process.

  48. Standard Heats of Reaction • Changes in enthalpy (∆H) are usually specified at a set of standard conditions. • Standard temperature = 25°C = 298 K • Standard pressure = 1 atm = 101.3 kPa • The change in enthalpy that accompanies the formation of one mole of a compound from its elements under standard conditions is called the standard heat of formation, ∆Hfo.

  49. Standard Heats of Reaction • For example: • H2(g) + ½ O2(g) → H2O(l) ∆Hfo = −285.8 kJ • Ca(s) + ½ O2(g) → CaO(s) ∆Hfo = −635 kJ • C(s) + 2 H2(g) → CH4(g) ∆Hfo = −74.86 kJ • ½ N2(g) + ½ O2(g) → NO(g) ∆Hfo = 90.37 kJ

  50. Standard Heats of Reaction • For a reaction occurring at standard conditions, you can calculate the heat of reaction by using the standard heats of formation of the reactants and the products. • ∆Ho = ∆Hfo(products) − ∆Hfo(reactants)
