Study Notes
### Energy & Phase Change
- Energy is either added or released during a phase change.
- Phase changes include melting/freezing, vaporizing/condensing, and subliming/depositing.
Heat of Fusion, Vaporization, & Sublimation
- Heat of fusion is the energy required to change a solid at its melting point to a liquid.
- Heat of vaporization is the energy required to change a liquid at its boiling point to a gas.
- Heat of sublimation is the energy required to change a solid directly to a gas.
Heating Curves
- Temperature and heat added are plotted on a heating curve.
- Within a phase, heat is the product of specific heat, sample mass, and temperature change.
- During a phase change, the temperature of the substance does not rise.
- For phase changes, heat is the product of mass and the heat of fusion or vaporization.
Calculating Enthalpy Change (ΔH)
- Can be calculated for converting 1.00 mol of ice at -25 °C to steam at 125 °C under constant pressure of 1 atm.
- Steps involved:
- Calculate enthalpy change for each individual phase
- Sum up the individual enthalpy changes to get the total enthalpy change (ΔHA→F)
- Specific heats of ice, liquid water, and steam are 2.03, 4.18, and 1.84 J/g.K, respectively.
- ΔHfus = 6.01 kJ/mol and ΔHvap = 40.67 kJ/mol for H2O.
Hess's Law
- Definition: Enthalpy change for a reaction is independent of the pathway.
- Can be used to calculate enthalpy of reaction for a reaction not directly measured if the enthalpy changes of other reactions are known.
- Reactions can be reversed or multiplied to obtain the desired reaction.
