Thermodynamics
Recall thermochemistry (study of heat changes) from
CHM 151: Chapter 10 specifically sections 1, 2
(except work), 3, and 6.
Spontaneous Processes
Spontaneity is determined by enthalpy (H: measure of
energy change) and entropy (S: measure of disorder)
of a reaction.
-241.8 kJ/mol
Calculating Horxn
Calculate Horxn for the following reaction:
4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g).
O2(g) = 0 kJ/mol
CO2 (g) = -393.5 kJ/mol
H2O(l) = - 285.8 kJ/mol
Answer: -1410.9 kJ
18.2 Entropy
To predict spontaneity, both the enthalpy and entropy must be
known.
Entropy (S) of a system is a measure of how spread out or
how dispersed the systems energy is.
Change in entropy of a system is the difference
between the final & initial state.

Entropy
Standard entropy (So) is absolute entropy of a substance
at 1 atm; units of entropy are J/K mol
For a given substance, So is greater in liquid phase than in solid
phase.
For a given substance, So is greater in gas phase than in liquid
phase.
For 2 monatomic species, one with the larger molar mass has
greater So
For 2 substances in same phase (similar masses) substance
with more complex molecular structure has the greater So
In cases where an element exists in 2 or more allotropic forms,
the form in which the atoms are more mobiles has greater So
Note: The standard entropy for a pure element in its most stable
form is NOT zero (like for Hof).

Entropy of Dissolution
Dissolving a substance can lead to an increase or a decrease in
entropy, depending on the nature of the solute.
Molecular solutes (i.e. sugar): entropy increases
Ionic compounds: entropy can decrease or increase
18
Entropy Trends
Entropy increases as the number of particles (molecules)
increases:
N2O4(g) 2 NO2(g)
Comparing entropy of molecules Entropy increases as:
1) temperature increases.
H2O at 10oC vs H2O at 100oC
2) mass of an atom or molecule increases (more
electrons moving around)
F2 (158 J/Kmol) < Cl2 (165 J/Kmol)
3) molecular complexity increases (i.e., number of
atoms, number of heavier atoms, etc.)
CH4 (186 J/Kmol) < C2H6 (230 J/Kmol)

determine the temperature for a phase change.

For ice:
263K (-10oC): G = +0.22 kJ/mol (non-spontaneous)
283K (10oC): G = -0.22 kJ/mol (spontaneous)
2) Calculate the boiling point (in oC) of ethanol if
the entropy of vaporization is 111.9 J/K and the
enthalpy of vaporization is 39.3 kJ
T = H / S = 39.3 kJ / 0.1119 kJ/K = 351.206 K = 78.2oC
