CALCULATION OF ENTHALPY CHANGES
Molar Enthalpy
the enthalpy change for 1 mole of a substance associated with a chemical, physical or nuclear change
the units will J or kJ per mole
Example
A common refrigerant , Freon-12, has a molar mass of 120.91 g/mol. The molar enthalpy to vaporize Freon is 34.99 kJ/mol. If 500 g of Freon is vaporized, what is the enthalpy change?

Specific Heat Capacity
the quantity of heat needed to change the temperature of 1 g of substance by 1˚C
the symbol is C the units are J/g˚C or Jg-1˚C-1 EX. C water = 4.18 J/g˚C
Specific Heat Capacity
the quantity of heat needed to change the temperature of 1 g of substance by 1˚C
the symbol is C
the units are J/g˚C or Jg-1˚C-1
EX. C water = 4.18 J/g˚C
Specific heat capacity is a measure of how ‘easily’ a substance changes temperature. A substance with a high heat capacity can absorb more energy without changing temperature than a substance with low specific heat.
Heat Transfer Problems
ΔH= mCΔT
Enthalpy Change (J)
Mass of the substance changing temperature (g)
Specific Heat Capacity (Jg-1°C-1 )
Change in Temperature Tf –Ti (°C)
Heat Transfer Problems
When Tf is greater than Ti :
-energy is absorbed- the process is ENDOthermic - ΔH is positive
ΔH= mCΔT
Enthalpy Change (J)
Mass of the substance changing temperature (g)
Specific Heat Capacity (Jg-1°C-1 )
Change in Temperature Tf –Ti (°C)
Heat Transfer Problems
When Tf is less than Ti :
-energy is released- the process is EXOthermic - ΔH is negative
ΔH= mCΔT
Enthalpy Change (J)
Mass of the substance changing temperature (g)
Specific Heat Capacity (Jg-1°C-1 )
Change in Temperature Tf –Ti (°C)
Examples
1) A 150 g sample of Pb at 100.0 °C is plunged into a beaker containing 50 g of water at 22.0 °C. The final temperature of the mixture is 28.8 °C.
a) What is the energy change for the water?
b) How much energy is lost by the Pb? c) Calculate the CPb

Examples
2) While running an adult expends 5.0 x 105 J/mile. If this energy could be transferred as heat to a beaker of water, how many grams of water could be heated from 25.0 °C to 100.0 °C?

CALORIMETRY
Calorimeter – an insulated device used to determine temperature changes during a chemical or physical process.
the calorimeter is part of the surroundings
Two Kinds: 1) Simple 2) Bomb
Simple Calorimetry
the process occurs at constant pressure
RECALL that ΔH is + for an ENDOTHERMIC change and – for an EXOTHERMIC
ΔHobserved = mCΔT = - ΔH rxn
Assumptions
for a dilute aqueous solution, use Cwater = 4.18 J/g°C as the heat capacity for the solution
1 mL of solution = 1 g of solution
no heat is transferred to the outside of the calorimeter( i.e., the calorimeter is perfectly insulated)

reaction mixture
Example
1) 5.00 mL of 1.0 mol/L NaOH and 5.00 mL of 1.0 mol/L HCl are mixed in a simple calorimeter. The initial temperature of each substance is 23.0 °C. After mixing, the temperature rose to 27.5 °C.
a) What is the enthalpy change for this rxn?b) Calculate the energy change per mole of
HCl.On Board
Example
2) 1.50 g of NH4NO3 is added to 35.0 g of water in a simple calorimeter. The initial temperature of the water is 22.7°C and the final temperature of the mixture is 19.4 °C. Calculate the enthalpy change per mole of salt.
Bomb Calorimetry
Bomb Calorimetry
Not Really !
Bomb Calorimetry
the process occurs at constant volume used to measure the heat released in a
combustion reaction

NOTE: q is used in place of ΔH for an energy change at constant volume
q observed = C’ΔT = - q

Example
A food manufacturer wishes to know the number of calories per serving of a new dessert. They hire a chemist at the Dep’t of Consumer Affairs to help them out.
a) The chemist places a 1.00 g sample of the dessert in a bomb calorimeter. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 8.151 kJK-1. The temperature increases by 4.937 °C. Calculate the number of food calories (kcal) in the sample of dessert.
b) A single serving of the dessert weighs 30.00 g. How many food calories are in the dessert?
