    Study Notes

    Calorimetry

    • Calorimetry is a technique used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.
    • It is based on the principle of heat transfer between a system and its surroundings.
    • A calorimeter is a device used to measure heat transfer, and it is designed to operate at constant pressure.
    • There are different types of calorimeters, including:
      • Coffee cup calorimeters: simple and inexpensive, but less accurate.
      • Bomb calorimeters: more accurate and used for reactions that produce large amounts of heat and gaseous products.

    Heat Transfer

    • Heat transfer occurs between a system and its surroundings.
    • The amount of heat transferred is proportional to the temperature change, specific heat, and mass of the substance.
    • The heat gained by one substance is equal to the heat lost by another substance.

    Heat of Reaction

    • The heat of reaction is the amount of heat produced or consumed during a chemical reaction.
    • It is calculated using the formula: qreaction = -qsolution.
    • The heat of reaction can be measured using a calorimeter.

    Calorimetry Problems

    • Calorimetry problems typically involve calculating the heat of reaction, heat gained or lost, or temperature change.
    • The problems require the use of specific heat, mass, and temperature change data.

    Examples of Calorimetry

    • Dissolving NH4NO3 in water: an endothermic process that absorbs heat.
    • Burning glucose in a bomb calorimeter: an exothermic process that produces heat.
    • Measuring the heat of reaction between HCl and NaOH: an exothermic process that produces heat.
    • Using hand warmers: an exothermic process that produces heat through crystallization or oxidation reactions.

    Thermochemistry

    • Thermochemistry is the study of the relationships between heat, work, and energy.

    • It is an important area of study in chemistry and has many practical applications.

    • Calorimetry is a key technique used in thermochemistry to measure heat transfer and calculate energy changes.### Calorimetry

    • Calorimetry is a technique used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.

    • It involves the use of a calorimeter, a device that measures the heat transferred to or from a substance.

    • The temperature change measured by the calorimeter is used to derive the amount of heat transferred by the process under study.

    Calorimeter

    • A calorimeter is a device used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.
    • It is designed to minimize heat exchange with the surroundings.
    • There are different types of calorimeters, including:
      • Coffee cup calorimeters (simple and inexpensive)
      • Commercial solution calorimeters (more accurate)
      • Bomb calorimeters (used to measure the heat produced by a reaction that yields large amounts of heat and gaseous products)

    Heat Transfer

    • When a substance at a higher temperature is placed in contact with a substance at a lower temperature, heat will flow from the higher temperature substance to the lower temperature substance.
    • The temperature of the higher temperature substance will decrease, while the temperature of the lower temperature substance will increase, until they reach thermal equilibrium.
    • The heat gained by one substance is equal to the heat lost by the other substance: qsubstance M = -qsubstance W

    Calculation of Heat Transfer

    • The heat transfer can be calculated using the formula: q = c × m × ΔT
    • Where q is the heat transfer, c is the specific heat, m is the mass of the substance, and ΔT is the temperature change.

    Applications of Calorimetry

    • Calorimetry is used to measure the energy content of foods.
    • It is used in the study of chemical reactions and metabolism.
    • It is used in the development of better rocket fuels.
    • It is used to measure the specific heat of a substance.

    Examples of Calorimetry

    • Measuring the heat involved in the dissolution of a solid in water.
    • Measuring the heat produced by a reaction in a bomb calorimeter.
    • Measuring the heat transferred between two substances at different temperatures.
    • Identifying a metal by measuring its specific heat.

    Key Terms

    • System: the substance or substances undergoing the chemical or physical change.
    • Surroundings: all other matter, including components of the measurement apparatus, that serve to either provide heat to the system or absorb heat from the system.
    • Specific heat: the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1°C.
    • Nutritional calorie (Calorie): a unit of energy used to quantify the amount of energy derived from the metabolism of foods.### Calorimetry
    • Calorimetry is a technique used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.
    • It is used to measure the heat transferred to or from a substance, and the measurement of heat transfer using this approach requires the definition of a system and its surroundings.
    • A calorimeter is a device used to measure the amount of heat involved in a chemical or physical process.

    Heat Transfer

    • Heat transfer occurs between substances at different temperatures, and the temperature of the substances will change until they reach thermal equilibrium.
    • The heat gained by one substance is equal to the heat lost by the other substance: qsubstance M = -qsubstance W

    Calorimetry of Chemical Reactions

    • Calorimetry is used to determine the heat involved in a chemical reaction, and the same principles of heat transfer apply.
    • The amount of heat produced or consumed in the reaction (the "system"), qreaction, plus the heat absorbed or lost by the solution (the "surroundings"), qsolution, must add up to zero: qreaction + qsolution = 0
    • This means that the amount of heat produced or consumed in the reaction equals the amount of heat absorbed or lost by the solution: qreaction = -qsolution

    Applications of Calorimetry

    • Calorimetry is used to measure the energy content of foods, and is an important tool in understanding the heat transferred in reactions involving everything from microscopic proteins to massive machines.
    • It is used to measure the metabolism of individuals under different environmental conditions, and to develop better recommendations and regimens for nutrition, exercise, and general wellbeing.

    Types of Calorimeters

    • Bomb calorimeters are used to measure the energy produced by reactions that yield large amounts of heat and gaseous products, such as combustion reactions.
    • Whole-body calorimeters are used to measure the metabolism of individuals, and are designed to hold an individual human being.
    • Coffee cup calorimeters are simple and inexpensive, and are often used by students to measure the heat involved in chemical reactions.

    Calculations

    • The heat involved in a process can be calculated using the formula: q = c × m × ΔT
    • The specific heat of a substance is a measure of the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of the substance by one degree Celsius.
    • The specific heat of a substance is a unique property of that substance, and is used to calculate the heat involved in a process.
