Hess’s Law and calculations Hess’s law states that “enthalpy change is independent of the route taken”
H 1 Route 1 NaOH (s) NaCl (aq) Route 2 NaOH (s) NaCl (aq) + H2O (l) + HCl aq) H 2 H 3 NaOH (aq) H 1 = H 2 + H 3 Verification of Hess’s Law H = enthalpy change The conversion of solid NaOH to sodium chloride solution can be achieved by two possible routes. One is a direct,single-step process, (adding HCl (aq) directly to the solid NaOH) and secondly a two-step process (dissolve the solid NaOH in water first, then add the HCl(aq)) All steps are exothermic. If Hess’s Law applies, the enthalpy change for route 1 must be the same for the overall change for route 2.
Route 2 H 2 + H 3 Route 1 H 1 50 ml 1mol l-1 HCl 50 ml HCl 50 ml H2O then H = c m H 1 = c m T T Experimental Confirmation of Hess’s Law 2.50g of KOH added to a dry, insulated beaker. Before adding the acid, its temperature is recorded. The final temperature rise after adding the acid is also recorded. 1. 2.50g of KOH added to a dry, insulated beaker. 2. Before adding the water, its temperature is recorded. The final temperature rise after adding the water is also recorded. 3. Now add the acid, again, recording the final temperature rise. Use the equation below to calculate H2 and H 3 H 2 Knowing the specific heat capacity for water, it is then possible to calculate the Enthaply change for this reaction. H 3 H 2 + H 3 = H 1 will verify Hess’s law
3C (s) + 3H2 (g) C3H6 (g) Route 2a Route2b 3CO2 (g) + 3H2O(g) H c C= -394 kJ mol –1 H c H = -286 kJ mol –1 Combining Equations Hess’s law can be used to calculate enthalpy changes that cannot be directly measured by experiment. Route 1 Route 1 cannot be carried out in a lab, as Carbon and Hydrogen will not combine directly. The products of combustion act as a stepping stone which enables a link with carbon and hydrogen (the reactants) with propane (the product) Route 2a involves the combustion of bothcarbon and hydrogen and 3C (s) + 3O2 (g) 3CO2 (g) 3H2 (s) + 1.5 O2 (g) 3H2O (g) Route 2b involves the reverse combustion of propane 3CO2 (g) + 3H2O(l) 3C2H6 (g) + 41/2O2 (g)
Route 1 Route 2a H c C= -394 kJ mol –1 H c H = -286 kJ mol –1 3C (s) + 3H2 (g) C3H6 (g) + H 2a = -( x 394) = -1182 kJ mol -1 -( x 286) = -858 kJ mol -1 RouteH 2a RouteH 2b H 2a= -2040kJ mol –1 3CO2 (g) + 3H2O(g) H 1 = H 2a + H 2b H c Propane = -2056 kJ mol –1 Route 2b H 2b = + 2058.5 kJ mol –1 (note the reverse sign) = 18.5 kJ mol -1 + = (+ 2058.5 kJ mol –1) -2040 kJ mol -1 H1 3 3 3 3 H 1

Industrial Chemistry The UK chemical industry is the nation’s 4th largest manufacturing industry and the 5th largest in the world. The 3 largest sections are (a) food, drink and tobacco, (b) mechanical engineering and (c) paper, printing and publishing All chemical plants require a source of raw materials, which can either be non-living eg minerals, or living, eg plants and micro-organisms. (collectively known as biomass). A chemical plant produces the desired products. The process used to manufacture the product may be operated in continuous or batch sequences.

CH4 (g) Natural gas AIR alkali H2O(g) Water N2(g) + H2 (g) Catalyst Catalyst Catalyst heat Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 CO2 removed Fertiliser Industry Haber process Ammonia is manufactured from N2 and H2. The nitrogen is available from the raw material, air. (something which is available naturally). The hydrogen, like nitrogen, a feedstock for the manufacture of NH3. Hydrogen is usually produced from methane.
Haber Process Stage 1 CH4 (g) + H2O (g) CO (g) + 3H2 (g) ΔH1 = +210 kJ Stage 2 4N2 (g) + O2 (g) + 2H2(g) 2H2O (g) + 4N2 (g) ΔH2 = -484 kJ ΔH3 = -41 kJ Stage 3 CO (g) + H2O (g) CO2 (g) + H2 (g) In order to achieve a ratio of 3x hydrogen to nitrogen, stage 1 and 3 need to be 3.5x greater than stage 2. Combiningthe three stages 3.5 CH4 (g) + 4N2 (g) + O2(g) + 5H2O (g) 4N2 (g) + 12H2 (g) + 3.5 CO2 ΔH1 = (+210 x 3.5) kJ ΔH2 = -(484) kJ ΔH3 = -(41 x 3.5) kJ (ΔH1+ ΔH2 + ΔH3 ) ΔHtotal = -41 kJ
ΔHf = -92 kJ N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) 2NH3 (g) Haber process Reaction Conditions Low temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right, but means a slow reaction rate. Fe catalyst improves this. A high pressure favours also shifts the equilibrium to the right because this is the side with fewer gas molecules. Temperatures around 500oC and pressures of over 150 atmospheres give a yield of ammonia of about 15%. Product removal: In practice, equilibrium is not reached as unreacted gases are recycled and the ammonia gas is liquefied.

Stage 1 ΔH = -299 kJ S (l) + O2 (g) SO2 (g) Stage 2 2SO2 (g) + O2 (g) 2SO3 (g) ΔH = -98 kJ The catalyst does not function below 400 0C, a 99% yield is obtained. Stage 3 SO3 (g) + H2O (l) H2SO4 (l) ΔH = -130 kJ The acid produced is absorbed in 98% H2SO4,. If dissolved in water too muchheat is created and gases are lost to the atmosphere. Suphuric Acid The raw materials for the manufacture of H2SO4 are H2O, O2 from air and S or a compound containing sulphur. • Sources of sulphur • SO2 from smelting of ores, eg ZnS. The SO2 is converted into sulphuric • acid rather than released into the atmosphere. • CaSO4, the mineral anhydrite, is roasted with coke (C) and SiO2 (sand) • S deposits in the ground. • S can be extracted from oil and natural gas.
Sulphuric Acid Cost considerations Capital costs: The cost of building the plant and all the associated costs of all buildings Variable costs: The cost that changes throughout the year and is dependant of how much product is sold. Buying raw materials, treating waste and despatching the product Fixed costs: The cost of the staff, local rates, advertising and utility bills.
Petrochemical Industry Grangemouth is one of the UK’s major oil refineries and petrochemical plants. The crude oil is processed to increase its market value. Oil refining is a continuous process. The crude oil is processed to increase its market value. The fractions produced have many uses and heavier fractions are further processed by processes such as cracking which produces key feedstock for the plastic industry. Refinery gas, eg propane and butane bottled gas Petrol, which is further purified and blended Naphtha, feedstock for the plastic industry Kerosine, aviation fuel Diesel, Fuel oil, eg ships, oil-fired power stations, industrial heating residue, lubricating oil, waxes, bitumen
methane Gas grid ethane Cracker (ethene) Natural gases propane LPG butane petrol sulphur Natural gas The market value of Natural Gas is increased by desulphurisation and separating it into its constituent parts. Natural gas becomes a liquid at below -161oC. Fractional distillation is then used to separate out the constituents of natural gases in a continuous process.
Pharmaceutical Industry Drugs alter the biochemical processes in our bodies, for example, changing the way we feel and behave. Drugs which lead to an improvement in health are called medicines. Once a new drug is discovered, it will be patented, the licence lasting 20 years. Many years of trials may be needed before the drug even becomes commercially available. The Government is also involved in this process, providing the necessary licensing for the new drug. The Chemical Industry earns £1000 million pounds a year in ‘invisible earning’for licensing fees for patented chemicals and processes. Once the necessary licensing has been granted a pilot plant will be built for small scale production to allow for product evaluation. Full scale production is then implemented, where safety, environmental and energy saving factors have to be considered.
