Chapter 19: Chemical Thermodynamics 2 KClO3 2 KCl + 3 O2 Spontaneity of endothermic and exothermic reactions. 2 KClO3 2 KCl + 3 O2 The reaction proceeds spontaneously once the KClO3 has been heated to a high temperature. If the reaction were endothermic, you would have to continuously provide heat or the reaction would stop. Thus the reverse reaction, 2 KCl + O2 2 KClO3, is not likely to occur spontaneously.
Spontaneous for T > 0C Spontaneous for T < 0C water ice Recall that spontaneous ≠ a fast reaction rate Spontaneous only implies that the reaction can occur without outside assistance. A spontaneous process is one that proceeds without any outside assistance. • A process that is spontaneous in one direction is nonspontaneous in the reverse direction.

2 1 DU is the same for both blocks (recall definition of a state function) However, q and w for both blocks will depend on how quickly the blocks are moved. If the blocks are moved using infinitesimally small steps, the amount of heat will be zero and the amount of work done will equal DU. A process is reversible when it can be restored exactly to its initial state without a loss of energy to the surroundings.
Reversible processes are NOT spontaneous. • All spontaneous processes are irreversible. Entropy, S, is a measure of the degree of randomness, or disorder of a system, and has a positive, nonzero value for all substances above absolute zero. H2 (l) < H2 (g) < 2 H (g) DS, a state function, is a measure of the change in the degree of order in a system and can thus be positive, negative or equal to zero. (at constant Temp)
Heating curve of water Gas warming 100 Temperature (°C) liquid + gas present liquid warming solid + liquid present 0 solid warming Heat (kJ/s)
Heating curve of water 100 Temperature (°C) boiling/condensation point melting/freezing point 0 Heat (kJ/s) Temperature is constant during phase transitions!! All heat energy goes to changing the state of matter.
Heating curve of water 100 Temperature (°C) DHvap (heat of vaporization) 0 DHfus (heat of fusion) Heat (kJ/s) DHfus = the amount of heat needed to convert a solid into its liquid phase DHvap = the amount of heat needed to convert a liquid into its gaseous phase
Entropy and phase changes • Temperature is constant during any phase change. • The process is reversible. • The amount of heat energy involved is equal to DH. EX: Use Appendix C to calculate the boiling point of CCl4. CCl4 (l) CCl4 (g) DH = Hf(product) – Hf(reactant) = -106.7 kJ – (-139.3 kJ) = 32.6 kJ DS = S(product) – S(reactant) = 309.4 J/K – 214.4 J/K = 95.0 J/K T = 3.26 x 10 4 J/95.0 J/K = 343 K (lit: 350 K)
The Second Law of Thermodynamics: The total entropy of the Universe increases in any spontaneous process. Reversible process:DSuniv = DSsystem + DSsurroundings = 0 Irreversible process:DSuniv = DSsystem + DSsurroundings > 0 The Third Law of Thermodynamics: The entropy of a perfect crystal at absolute zero is zero.
Three Laws of Thermodynamics(paraphrased): First Law: You can't get anything without working for it. Second Law: The most you can accomplish by work is to break even. Third Law: You can't break even. OR… First Law: You can't win. Second Law: You can't even break even. Third Law: You can't get out of the game. THE LAW OF ENTROPY: The perversity of the universe tends towards a maximum.
S = k lnW Boltzman’s Equation k = Boltzman’s constant = 1.38 × 10−23 J/K W = number of microstates = number of equivalent ways that the particles in the system can be arranged. When you’re talking about 6.022 x 1023 particles…that’s a LOT of microstates!! Entropy Activity In general, W and thus entropy increase with: • Temperature • Volume • Number of independently moving particles
Is DS positive or negative? (a) CO2(s) CO2(g) DS > 0 because gas is formed (b) CaO(s) + CO2(g) CaCO3(s) DS < 0 because gas was consumed by reaction (c) HCl(g) + NH3(g) NH4Cl(s) DS < 0 because gas was consumed by reaction (d) 2 SO2(g) + O2(g) 2 SO3(g) DS < 0 because there are fewer moles of gas on the product side than on the reactant side.
Appendix C lists standard molar entropies, So (1 atm, 298 K). Some guidelines to help with predicting the sign of DS: • Unlike enthalpies of formation, the standard molar entropies of elements at the reference temperature of 298 K are not zero • The standard molar entropies of gases are much, much greater than those of liquids and solids. • Standard molar entropies generally increase with increasing molar mass. [Compare Li(s), Na(s), and K(s).] • Standard molar entropies generally increase with an increasing number of atoms in the formula of a substance due to the greater number of modes of motion.

Electronegativity Ionization Energy & Electron Affinity Ionization Energy & Electron Affinity Electronegativity Periodicity: Atomic Trends There are a number of atomic characteristics that either increase or decrease along the periodic table.
Atomic Radius: As you go down a group, the atomic radius increases with increasing energy level. Atomic radius decreases as you go left to right along a period because the greater nuclear charge pulls the electrons in closer to the nucleus. s-block p-block
Why atomic diameter increases as you go down a group… - + Shielding effect: The inner electron shells insulate the valence electrons from some of the electrical attraction with the positive charge of the nucleus. valence e- nucleus core electrons

Ionization Energy:the amount of energy that is required to remove an electron. • If an atom will easily lose an electron (like the alkali metals), the ionization energy will be low. • If it will not lose electrons easily (noble gases, halogens), the ionization energy will be high.
Electronegativity: Ability of an atom to attract electrons when in a molecule.
Electronegativity increases going left to right, and decreases going down.

2 H2O (l) 2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) This is a very nonspon- taneous process!! G = H T S Are all +DS reactions spontaneous? Free Energy is energy that is available to do work. DS is large and positive… …but DH is large and positive as well. • Gibb’s Free Energy, DG, allows us to predict the spontaneity of a reaction using DH AND DS. If –DG spontaneous reaction
2 H2O (l) 2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) DHrxn = [2(0) + 0] - 2(-285.83 kJ/mol) = 571.66 kJ/mol DSrxn = 326.34 J/molK = 0.32634 kJ/molK What is DG for this reaction at 25C? DHrxn = SHf(products) –SHf(reactants) DSrxn = SSf(products) –SSf(reactants) DSrxn = [2(130.58 J/molK) + 205.0 J/molK] - 2(69.91 J/molK) DGrxn = DHrxn – TDSrxn = 571.66 kJ/mol - 298K(0.32634 kJ/molK) DGrxn = +474.41 kJ/mol +DG = nonspontaneous

DGrxn = DHrxn – TDSrxn = 571.66 kJ/mol - T(0.32634 kJ/molK) Set DGrxn = 0 to find minimum temperature 0 = 571.66 kJ/mol - T(0.32634 kJ/molK) T = (571.66 kJ/mol)/(0.32634 kJ/molK) = 1751 K T > 1478 C

Hence, DG = -wmax Q: What does it mean if DG = 0? Rate of forward reaction = rate of reverse reaction The system is at equilibrium!
Au2O3 (s) + 2 Fe (s) 2 Au (s) + Fe2O3 (s) Chemical Equilibria: The basics Irreversible reactions: The reactants combine to form products and the reaction stops when the limiting reagent has been completely used up. “Only” the forward reaction occurs. Ex: Reversible reactions: Both the forward and the reverse reaction occur to a significant degree. Forward: 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) Reverse: 3 H2(g) + N2(g)⇋2 NH3(g) Equilibrium: A reaction is at equilibrium when Rate forward rxn = Rate reverse rxn
General form of equilibrium constant, Keq: aA + bB ⇋cC + dD If Keq > 1, then more products than reactants present at equilibrium If Keq < 1, then more reactants than products present at equilibrium

Heterogeneous equilibria • If the reactants and products are in more than one state, the equilibrium constant is for a heterogeneous equilibria. • Because the concentration of a solid does not change significantly compared to gaseous or liquid reactants or products, solids NEVER appear in equilibrium constant calculations. Ex: BaCl2 (s)⇋ Ba2+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) • Since this particular type of equilibrium involves the solubility of the product, it is given a special designation: • Ksp = solubility product constant
[CO][H2] Keq = [H2O] [CO2] Keq = [CO] Heterogeneous equilibria (cont.) Since the concentration of a liquid solvent that the reaction takes place in also doesn’t change significantly, it also doesn’t appear in the equilibrium calculation. Ex: H2O (l)⇋ H2O (g) • What are the equilibrium constants for the following: • C10H8(s)⇋ C10H8(g) • CaCO3(s)⇋ CaO (s) + CO2(g) • C (s) + H2O (g)⇋ CO (g) + H2(g) • FeO (s) + CO (g)⇋ Fe (s) + CO2(g) Keq = [C10H8] Keq = [CO2]
Le Chatelier’s Principle: When a stress is applied to an equilibrium, the equilibrium will shift to alleviate the stress. Fe+3(aq) + SCN-1(aq) ⇋ FeSCN+2(aq) Colorless ⇋ Dark red Reactants Products Left shift = lighter color Right shift = darker color Initial color
Other ways to cause a Le Châtelier Shift: 3 H2(g) + N2(g) + heat ⇋ 2 NH3(g) What kind of shift would you see and how would G (temporarily) be affected if: Pressure increased? Right shift G more negative Volume increased? • Left shift • G more positive Right shift G more negative Heating temperature increased?
CH4(g) + 2 Cl2(g) ⇋ CCl4(g) + 2 H2(g) + heat What kind of shift would you see if: Pressure increased? No Change G remains zero Heating temperature increased? • Left shift • G more positive
“Of shoes and ships and sealing wax and cabbages and Kings…” …or “What if conditions aren’t quite standard?” 3 H2 + N2 2 NH3 DG = 0 at equilibrium Q: What is DG when you first mix the reactants together? Recall that the equilibrium constant for a reaction, K, is: When the reaction first starts, it is NOT at equilibrium. We use a reaction quotient, Q, to evaluate how far from equilibrium it is.
EX: Is the reaction for the synthesis of ammonia at equilibrium when there are 2 moles of nitrogen and hydrogen, and 1 mole of ammonia in a 2 L flask? Step 1: Determine the concentrations of the reactants and products Recall that the square brackets indicate that concentrations are in terms of moles/liter (M). [H2] = 2 moles/2 L = 1 M [N2] = 2 moles/2 L = 1 M [NH3] = 1 moles/2 L = 0.5 M Step 2: Calculate the reaction quotient
Step 3: Calculate the equilibrium constant from DGo IF the reaction is being done under standard conditions, you can use the tabulated DGf values in Appendix C to calculate DGo for the reaction 3 H2 + N2 2 NH3 K = 7.0 x 105
DG = -3.7 x 104 J = -370 kJ Step 4: Compare Q and K Q = 0.25 K = 7.0 x 105 Nope. Is this reaction anywhere near equilibrium?? EX: Calculate DG for the synthesis of ammonia given the previous reaction conditions. DG = DG + RTlnQ The fact that the reaction is far from equilibrium has increased the spontaneity of the reaction (increased its driving force).
