Causes of Change Using Enthalpy
Because enthalpy is the total energy of a system, it is a very important quantity. • However, like we know, it can only be measured through a changed. • There is no way to determine the true value of H, but ΔH can be measured as a change occurs. Molar Enthalpy Change
The enthalpy change for one mole of a pure substance is called the __________. • Consider the following (heating iron): Fe(s, 300K) Fe(s, 1100K) ΔH = 20.1 kJ/mol • This indicates that when 1 mol of solid iron is heated from ___K to ___K, its molar enthalpy increases by 20,100 Joules. Molar Enthalpy Change
The iron does not change state OR goes through a chemical reaction. • This means the change in enthalpy represents only a change in the kinetic energy of the iron atoms. • When a pure substance is heated or cooled, the amount of heat involved is the same as the change in enthalpy (ΔH) ΔH = q Molar Heat Capacity Governs the Changes
With this said, the molar enthalpy change is related to the molar heat capacity by the following equation: Molar enthalpy change = CΔT =(molar heat cap)(change in T) This equation DOES NOT apply to chemical reactions or changes in state. Molar Heat Capacity Governs the Changes
Calculating Molar Enthalpy Change for Heating • How much does the molar enthalpy change when ice warms from -5.4ºC to -0.2ºC? The molar heat capacity of water is 37.4 J/K*mol. Practice! What are the units?? 0.19 kJ/mol.
Calculating Molar Enthalpy Change for Cooling • Calculate the molar enthalpy change when an aluminum can that has a temperature of 19.2ºC is cooled to a temperature of 4.00ºC. The molar heat capacity for Al is 24.2 J/K*mol. Practice Some More!! -368 J/mol
Lead has a molar heat capacity of 26.4 J/K*mol. What molar enthalpy change occurs when lead is cooled from 302ºC to 275ºC? -713 J/mol
Calculate the molar enthalpy change when Hg is cooled 10 K. The molar heat capacity of mercury is 27.8 J/K*mol. -300 J/mol
Notice the molar enthalpy change for the first problem was positive, meaning that the heating of the sample requires energy • The heating of a sample is an endothermic process. • The second problem had a negative molar enthalpy change, which means the heating gives off energy (gets hotter) • This implies that the process is ____________. Signs of Molar Enthalpy Change
You can use the signs of the enthalpy change to determine whether a process is exo- or endothermic. • Processes that have positive enthalpy changes are endothermic. • Processes that have negative enthalpy changes are exothermic. Exothermic and Endothermic
Enthalpy changes can be found for a system of substances as well • Consider the following: H2(g) + Br2(g) 2HBr(g) + heat • This indicates that the enthalpy of 2HBr is LESS than the enthalpy of H2 and Br2, so the enthalpy change is ________ (pos or neg) • This negative enthalpy change indicates a _____________ process. Enthalpy of a System
Enthalpy is the first of three thermodynamic properties that we will cover. • Thermodynamics – the science that examines various processes and the energy changes that accompany the processes. • Allows chemists to predict whether a chemical reaction can occur and what kind of energy it will have. Thermodynamics
Think about the heating of iron again: Fe(s, 300K) Fe(s, 1100K) ΔH = 20.1 kJ/mol • Similarily, a phase change or a chemical reaction can be written using the same style. • Example: H2(g, 298K) + Br2(g, 298K) 2HBr(g, 298K) ΔH = -72.8 kJ Writing Equations of H Changes
Notice that the enthalpy change for this reaction and other chemical reactions are written using the symbol ΔH. • Think about the last reaction: Is it an exothermic or an endothermic process?? ___________________ Writing Equations of H Changes
