Chapter 17
Thermochemistry is the study of heat changes
that occur during chemical reactions.
Energy is the ability to do work or
cause change.
Work is force applied over a distance
Potential Energy is stored energy
Kinetic Energy is energy of motion
Chemical Potential Energy is stored within the
structural units of chemical substances.
Heat
Heat (q) is Energy that is transferred from one object
to another
Transfer is due to temperature difference between the
two substances
Heat ALWAYS travels from hot to cold
Remember, temperature is a measure of the average
kinetic energy of a substance
Heat
CANNOT be detected.
the changes CAUSED by heat however
can be
ex. Rise in temperature
Law of Conservation of Energy
In any chemical or physical process, energy
is neither created nor destroyed.
All of the energy involved can be accounted
for as Work, Potential Energy, or Heat.
Terms for studying heat:
System – what you are focusing on
Surroundings – everything else
Universe = System + Surroundings
Direction of heat flow is always described relative to
the system.
Endothermic process – Energy is absorbed by the system
from the surroundings (Heats up)
Exothermic process – Energy is released by the system
into the surroundings (Cools down)

Units of Heat
calorie- the quantity of heat needed to raise the
temperature of 1 g of pure H2O 1 degree Celsius.
Calorie = 1000 calories = 1 kilocalorie => Dietary
Calorie
Joule – the quantity of heat needed to raise the
temperature of 1 g of pure H2O, 0.2390 degrees Celsius.
4.184 J = 1 cal
Heat Capacity vs.
Specific Heat Capacity
Heat capacity – the amount of heat needed to raise
the temperature 1 degree Celsius, for any substance
Depends on mass and composition
Specific heat capacity (specific heat) – the amount of
heat it takes to raise the temperature of 1 g of a
substance 1 degree Celsius.
Depends on composition only
Calculation
Specific heat =
Heat______________
Mass x Change in Temperature
Specific heat (C or Cp)
Heat (q)
Mass (m)
Change in temperature ( ∆T)
q = m C ∆T
Measuring and Expressing Heat
Changes (change in temperature)
Calorimetry- Accurate and precise measurement of
heat change
Instrument – Calorimeter
For systems at constant pressure, the heat content is
the same as enthalpy (H)
Heat changes are the same as changes in enthalpy (ΔH)
q = ΔH
Since q = ΔH, then by substitution
ΔH = m x C x ΔT
Heat in Changes of State
Molar Heat of Fusion (ΔHfus) – Solid to Liquid
Molar Heat of Vaporization (ΔHvap) – Liquid to
Gas
q = ΔH x mass OR q = ΔH x moles
Depends on units of ΔH

Group Concept Questions
Your text defines energy as “the ability to do work or
to cause change”. Another definition of energy is
“the ability to resist a natural tendency”. Explain this
definition and provide an example.
A friend of yours reads that the process of water
freezing is exothermic. This friend tells you that this
can’t be true because exothermic implies “hot”, and
ice is cold. Is the process of water freezing
exothermic? If so, explain it so your friend can
understand it. If not, explain why not.
Group Concept Questions
You place hot metal into a beaker of cold water.
Eventually what is true about the temperature of the
metal compared to that of the water? Explain why this
is true.
Label this process as endothermic or exothermic if we
consider the system to be:
the metal. Explain
the water. Explain

containers for soft drinks.
Calorimetry Problems:
Changes in Temperature
How much heat is absorbed by 60.0 g of copper when
its temperature is raised from 20 oC to 80 oC?
What is the specific heat of a 124 g sample of brass if
3.94 x 103 J raises the temperature of the brass from
12.5 oC to 97.0 oC?
If 350 J of heat energy are added to 100 g of a metal and
the temperature changes by 25 oC, what is the specific
heat of the metal? What is the identity of the metal?
10g of an unknown metal requires 39J of energy to
increase its temperature from 50 oC to 60 oC. What is
the specific heat of the metal? Identify the metal.
Calorimetry Problems:
Heat Lost = Heat Gained
When 80.0 grams of a certain metal at 90.0 °C was
mixed with 100.0 grams of water at 30.0 °C, the final
equilibrium temperature of the mixture was 36.0 °C.
What is the specific heat of the metal?
Calculate the specific heat of a metal if a 55.0 g sample
of an unknown metal at 99.0 °C causes a 1.7 °C
temperature rise when added to 225.0 g of water at
22.0 °C.

A piece of an unknown metal with mass 23.8 g is
heated to 100.0ºC and dropped into 50.0 cm3 of water
at 24.0ºC. The final temperature of the system is
32.5ºC. What is the specific heat of the metal?
A blacksmith heated an iron bar to 1445ºC. The
blacksmith then tempered the metal by dropping it
into 42,800 mL of water that had a temperature of
22ºC. The final temperature of the system was 45ºC.
What was the mass of the bar? Note: Specific heat of
iron is 0.4494 J/g·Cº.
How does ENERGY affect REACTIONS
Enthalpy
The amount of energy gained or released in a reaction
is the ENTHALPY (∆H).
ALL reactions require energy to occur.
The amount of energy needed to occur is called the
ACTIVATION ENERGY.
The more energy required for the reaction to occur, the
less likely the reaction will happen.
Because of the energy released in exothermic
reactions, exothermic reactions are more likely to
occur than endothermic reactions.
In other words, they are more spontaneous.
Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
Catalysts
Catalysts speed up reactions by lowering the activation
energy required for the reaction to occur.
Enzymes are biological catalysts.
Most catalysts work by helping ions and molecules to
“line up” the right way so they can react.

Reaction Path
Entropy
Whether or not a reaction will occur depends on both
ENTHALPY and ENTROPY.
Entropy is a measure of disorder.
Increasing disorder is a spontaneous process.
Entropy of States: solid < liquid < gas
Kinetic ..Energy – Gas
Kinetic Energy – Liquid
Kinetic Energy – Solid
Mixing substances, combining or separating elements, and
changing the temperature can affect the level of disorder as
well.
Mixing gases
Spontaneous?
If energy is released and disorder is increased, the
reaction will be spontaneous.
In other words, it will happen “on its own.”
If energy is absorbed and disorder decreases, the
reaction will be non-spontaneous.
These reactions will need “help” to occur. They can’t do
it by themselves.
If one factor is favorable and one is unfavorable, then
spontaneity will depend on the values of enthalpy and
entropy.
How fast will the reaction happen?
Rates of Reaction
A rate is the measure of change over time.
Reaction rates measure the change in reactants over
time.
The rate of a reaction is governed by collision theory.
Collision theory states that in order for a reaction to
occur, the reactants must collide and collide with
enough energy to overcome the activation energy
barrier to form products.
Collision Theory
So…anything that affects the number of collisions that
occur in a reaction or the amount of energy the
reactants have will affect the rate of reaction.
The rate of a reaction is dependent on several factors.
Properties of the elements and compounds in the
reaction
Temperature of the reaction
Amount of reactants present
Size of the particles
Presence of catalysts or inhibitors
Properties
The combination of elements and compounds in a
reaction will affect the rate of reaction.
Some substances are more reactive than others.
Ex. Metals rusting
Also, some substances are more reactive when in the
presence of other substances.
Ex. Baking soda in water vs. baking soda in vinegar
Temperature
Measures the average kinetic energy of a substance
Raising the temperature, raises the kinetic energy of
the substance
Increasing kinetic energy makes it MORE likely a
reaction will occur, thereby INCREASING the reaction
rate
Raising the temperature also increases the number of
collisions that occur
Increasing the collisions makes it MORE likely a
reaction will occur, thereby INCREASING the reaction
rate
Concentration
Measures the amount of reactants that are present
Moles / Liter (molarity)
Increasing the concentration, increases the number
of collisions that occur
Increasing the collisions makes it MORE likely a
reaction will occur, thereby INCREASING the reaction
rate
Particle Size
Measures the size of the particles of the substance
Ex. powder vs. crystal vs. chunks
Decreasing the particle size, increases the surface area
of the substance.
The increased surface area increases the number of
collisions that occur
Increasing the collisions makes it MORE likely a
reaction will occur, thereby INCREASING the reaction
rate
Catalysts and Inhibitors
Alter the activation energy or the ability of substances to
collide
Catalysts affect the activation energy
Inhibitors affect the substances’ ability to interact
Catalysts lower the activation energy making it easier for
the reactions to happen
Lowering the activation energy makes it MORE likely a
reaction will occur, thereby INCREASING the reaction rate
Inhibitors make it difficult for reactants to interact with
each other
Decreasing the collisions makes it LESS likely a reaction will
occur, thereby DECREASING the reaction rate
