Thermochemistry
Chapter 17
By: Jennie Borders

Section 17.1 – The Flow of Energy
 Energy is the capacity to do work or supply
heat.
 Energy has no mass or volume.
 Chemical potential energy is energy stored in
chemicals.
 The kinds of atoms and the arrangement of
the atoms in a substance determine the
amount of energy stored in the substance.

Heat
 Heat is a form of
energy that always
flows from a warmer
object to a cooler
object.
 Heat is represented by
q.

Thermochemistry
 Thermochemistry is the
study of the heat changes
that occur during
chemical reactions and
physical changes of state.
 The law of conservation
of energy states that in
any chemical or physical
process, energy is neither
created nor destroyed.

The Great Debate
1. Exothermic reactions lose heat.
2. Endothermic reactions absorb heat.

Exothermic and Endothermic
 Thermochemistry is concerned with the flow of
heat between a chemical system (reaction) and
its surroundings.
 A system is the specific part of the universe on
which you focus your attention.
 The surroundings include everything outside the
system.
 The system and the surroundings constitute the
universe.

Exothermic and Endothermic
 In thermochemical calculations
the direction of the heat flow is
given from the point of view of
the system.
 A process that absorbs heat from
the surroundings is called an
endothermic process.
 A process that loses heat to the
surroundings is called an
exothermic process.

Units of Heat
 A calorie is the quantity of
heat that raises the
temperature of 1 gram of
pure water 1oC.
 A Calorie, or dietary Calorie,
is equal to 1000 calories.
 A Joule is the SI unit of heat
and energy.
1 Calorie = 1000 cal = 1 kcal
= 4184 J
1 cal = 4.184 J

Energy Conversions
Make the following conversions.
444 calories to Joules
850 Joules to calories
444 cal x 4.184 J = 1857.7 J
1 cal
850 J x 1 cal = 203.2 cal
4.184 J

Heat Capacity
 The heat capacity of an object is the amount of
heat it takes to change an object’s temperature by
exactly 1oC.
 The greater the mass of an object, the greater the
heat capacity.
 The heat capacity of an object also depends on its
chemical composition.

Specific Heat
 The specific heat capacity of a
substance is the amount of
heat it takes to raise the
temperature of 1 gram of the
substance 1oC.
 Specific heat is represented by
C.
 The units of specific heat are
J/goC.
 Water has a higher specific
heat than most substances.

Heat
Heat = mass x specific heat x change in temp
q = m.C.DT
Mass is in grams
Specific heat is in J/goC
Change in temp is in oC

Section 17.1 Review
1. In what direction does heat flow between two
objects?
2. How do endothermic processes differ from
exothermic processes?
3. On what factors does the heat capacity of an
object depend?
4. Using calories, calculate how much heat 32.0g
of water absorbs when it is heated from 25oC
to 80oC. How many joules is this?
q = 32g (4.184 J/goC) (55oC) = 7363.8J
7363.8J x 1 cal = 1759.9 cal
4.184 J

Section 17.1 Review
4. How many kilojoules of heat are absorbed
when 1000g of water is heated from 18oC
to 85oC?
q = 1000g (4.184J/goC) (67oC) = 280328J
280328J x 1kJ = 280.328kJ
1000 J

Section 17.2 – Measuring and
Expressing Enthalpy Changes
 Calorimetry is the accurate and precise
measurement of heat change for chemical
and physical processes.
 Calorimeters are devices used to measure
the amount of heat absorbed or released
during chemical and physical processes.
 Enthalpy is the heat content of a system
at constant pressure.
 Enthalpy is represented by H.

Calorimeter
q = DH = m . C . DT

Heat Change Sign Convention

Heat Flow Sign Reaction Type

of the System -DH Exothermic
Heat Flows Into
the System +DH Endothermic

Thermochemical Equations
 An equation that included the heat change is
a thermochemical equation.
 A heat of reaction is the heat change for the
equation exactly as written.
 Ex:
CaO(s) + H2O(l)  Ca(OH)2(s)
DH = -65.2 KJ
2NaHCO3(s)  Na2CO3(s) +H2O(g) +CO2(g)
DH = +129 KJ

Section 17.2 Review
1. When 2 mol of solid magnesium
combines with 1 mol of oxygen gas, 2
mol of solid magnesium oxide is formed
and 1204kJ of heat is release. Write the
thermochemical equation for this
combustion reaction.
2Mg(s) + O2(g)  2MgO DH = -1204kJ

Section 17.2 Review
2. How much heat is released when 12.5g of
ethanol burns?
C2H5OH + 3O2  2CO2 + 3H2O DH = -1368kJ
12.5g x 1mol x -1368kJ = -371.74kJ
46g 1 mol

Section 17.3 – Heat in Changes of
State
 The heat of combustion is
the heat of reaction for the
complete burning of one
mole of a substance.

DH
 The heat absorbed by one mole of a
substance melting from a solid to a liquid
at constant temperature is the molar heat
of fusion.
 The heat lost when one mole of a liquid
changes to a solid at a constant
temperature is the molar heat of
solidification.
DHfus = - DHsolid

DH
 The heat absorbed by one mole of a
substance changing from a liquid to a
vapor is the molar heat of vaporization.
 The heat released by one mole of a
substance changing from a vapor to a
liquid is the molar heat of condensation.
DHvap = - DHcond

DH
 The heat change caused by dissolution of one
mole of a substance is the molar heat of
solution.
 Ex.
NaOH(s)  Na+
(aq) + OH-
(aq)
DHsoln = -445.1 KJ

Section 17.3 Review
1. How does the molar heat of fusion of a
substance compare to its molar heat of
solidification?
2. How does the molar heat of vaporization
of a substance compare to its molar heat
of condensation?

Section 17.3 Review
3. Identify each enthalpy change by name
and classify each change as exothermic
or endothermic.
a. 1 mol C3H8(l)  1 mol C3H8(g)
b. 1 mol Hg(l)  1 mol Hg(s)
c. 1 mol NH3(g)  1 mol NH3(l)
d. 1 mol NaCl(s) + 3.88kJ/mol  1 mol
NaCl(aq)
e. 1 mol NaCl(s)  1 mol NaCl(l)

Section 17.4 – Calculating Heats of
Reaction
 Hess’ Law of heat summation states that if you
add two or more thermochemical equations to
give a final equation, then you can also add the
heat changes to give the final heat change.

DH
 The standard heat of formation of a compound
is the change in enthalpy that accompanies the
formation of one mole of the compound from its
element with all substances in their standard
states at 25oC.
 The DHf
o of a free element in its standard state
is zero.
DHo = DHf
o (products) – DHf
o (reactants)

Use the enthalpy changes for the combustion of
aluminum and iron:
2Al + 3/2O2  Al2O3 DH = -1669.8kJ
2Fe + 3/2O2  Fe2O3 DH = -824.2kJ
