    Study Notes

    Thermochemical Equations

    • A thermochemical equation includes the enthalpy change of the reaction
    • The physical state of reactants and products affects the heat of reaction
    • The heat of reaction is an extensive property - doubling the amount of a reactant or product doubles the heat of reaction
    • The magnitude of the heat of reaction for a reverse process is equal to the forward reaction but opposite in sign

    Hess's Law of Heat Summation

    • The overall heat of reaction for a multi-step process is the sum of the heats of reaction for the individual steps
    • This law holds true because enthalpy is a state function, meaning the total enthalpy change is independent of the path taken

    Standard Enthalpy of Formation

    • The enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a substance is formed in its standard state from its elements in their standard states

    Thermochemical Equation

    • A thermochemical equation is a chemical equation that includes the enthalpy change of the reaction.
    • The enthalpy change (∆H) indicates whether the reaction is exothermic (releases heat, negative ∆H) or endothermic (absorbs heat, positive ∆H).

    Important Considerations for Thermochemical Equations

    • Physical State: The heat of reaction depends on the physical state (solid, liquid, or gas) of both reactants and products.
    • Extensive Property: The heat of reaction is an extensive property, meaning it is proportional to the amount of reactants involved. Doubling the amount of reactants doubles the heat of reaction.
    • Reverse Process: The magnitude of the heat of reaction for a reverse process is equal to the forward reaction, but the sign is opposite.

    Hess's Law of Heat Summation

    • Hess's Law states that if a chemical reaction is carried out in multiple steps, the overall enthalpy change of the reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes for each individual step.
    • Regardless of the steps involved, the total enthalpy change remains the same.
    • This additivity property is due to enthalpy being a state function.

    Example 1: Calculating Enthalpy Change with Hess's Law

    • Overall Reaction: H2O(s) → H2O(g)
    • Step 1: H2O(s) → H2O(l) (∆H = 6.01 kJ/mol)
    • Step 2: H2O(l) → H2O(g) (∆H = -44.0 kJ/mol)
    • To calculate the overall enthalpy change (∆H), sum the enthalpy changes from each step: ∆H = 6.01 kJ/mol + (-44.0 kJ/mol) = -38.0 kJ/mol

    Example 2: Combustion Reactions and Enthalpy Change

    • Combustion Reactions: The standard enthalpies of combustion are provided for C(graphite), H2(g), and C3H8(g).
    • Goal: Using Hess's Law, calculate the standard enthalpy change for the reaction: C(graphite) + 2H2(g) → C3H8(g)
    • Step 1: Write the combustion reactions for each reactant and the product:
      • C(graphite) + O2(g) → CO2(g) (∆H = -393.5 kJ/mol)
      • H2(g) + 1/2O2(g) → H2O(l) (∆H = -285.8 kJ/mol)
      • C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) → 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l) (∆H = -2219.9 kJ/mol)
    • Step 2: Manipulate the equations to match the overall reaction.
    • Step 3: Sum the enthalpy changes for each step to find the overall enthalpy change for the reaction

    Standard enthalpy of formation

    • The standard enthalpy of formation refers to the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a substance in its standard state is formed from its elements in their standard states.
    • Standard state usually means 298 K (25 °C) and 1 atm pressure.
