Equilibrium: Equilibrium is a continuous state of the rate of balance between two opposing changes. In a state of equilibrium the rate of the forward change is equal to the rate of the reverse change. Most chemical reactions are reversible: A + B C + D + energy = forward reaction When the rate of the C + D + energy A + B = reverse reaction forward reaction equals A + B (±energy) C + D Double arrows () the rate of the reverse indicate that BOTH reaction, a state of reactions are occurring equilibrium is reached. at the same time. If you ride up a moving escalator, you are moving at the rate that the escalator is moving upwards. However, if you turn around and start to walk DOWN the up escalator, and you match the escalator’s rate (up) but in the opposite direction (down), to someone watching you it looks as if you are not moving. However, you are still expending energy trying to go to the bottom, and the escalator is expending energy trying to carry you uphill. If anything was to upset the process (power failure to the escalator; you trip and fall, etc.), the equilibrium would be upset and you would either make it to the bottom or ride to the top.

Properties of Systems at Equilibrium: 1. Equilibrium is a dynamic state; think of equilibrium as a continuous pathway, never achieving a ‘set’ endpoint. Particles of reactants are reacting and forming products at the same rate that products are decomposing back into the reactants they came from. Remember that the system is in continuous motion, though it may look like the reaction is stagnant. 2. Equilibrium can only be maintained in a closed system. A closed system neither gains nor loses anything. This includes energy (loss or gain), adding reactants, or the removal of products. 3. As long as the system is closed, a system at equilibrium will remain that way forever. Changing ANY condition of equilibrium will alter the balance of the entire equilibrium (see pgs. 33-40). 4. Equilibrium occurs at different concentrations of product and reactant. Depending on the nature of the species involved, assuming we start with the forward reaction, the rate of the reverse reaction will increase as the product is formed during the forward reaction. When the forward AND reverse reaction rates are equal, equilibrium is achieved. This may occur at different concentrations of product and reactant.

At any point along the line the percentage of the reaction going forward (reactants) ADDED to the percentage of the reaction going backward (products) equals 100%. (% forward reaction) + (% reverse reaction) = 100% Website upload 2015 Page 10 of 45 Unit 9b: Equilibrium Systems Unit 9: Kinetics, Thermodynamics, & Equilibrium-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch Topic: Three Types of Equilibrium Objective: What forms of equilibrium are possible in chemistry? 1. Chemical Equilibrium: i. If the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction the reaction has achieved chemical equilibrium. You have seen the Haber Process for the production of ammonia: N2(g) + 3 H2(g) 2 NH3(g) + 92 kJ This reaction produces ammonia (and heat), but some of the ammonia, NH3(g), produced will decompose during the reaction back into reactants, N2(g) and 3 H2(g). ii. When the rate of synthesis (forward reaction) equals the rate of decomposition (reverse reaction), and no other changes occur, this system will be at equilibrium. iii. As stated before, changing ANY component of the system will change the equilibrium of the entire system.

If a solution becomes saturated, the rate of dissolving equals the rate of precipitation, and the reaction has achieved solution equilibrium. +1 -1 NaCl(s) Na (aq) + Cl (aq) ii. When sodium chloride is first placed into pure water, the solid ionic crystals dissolve. As the concentration of the dissolved ions +1 -1 increases, some of those dissolved Na (aq) and Cl (aq) ions will temporarily rejoin to form a soluble precipitate which almost immediately dissolves again. Eventually all the ions will be held apart by the polar water molecules, and no more solid may enter the solution until some ions come out of solution as precipitate. At this point the rate of dissolving equals the rate of precipitation, and you have a SATURATED solution. Additional added solid would not dissolve, or only as a temporary supersaturated solution. Solution Equilibriums Unsaturated - solute almost all Close to Saturation - solute Saturated-dissolving rate is undissolved; reaction almost all almost all dissolved; reaction equal to precipitate formation forward mostly forward, some reverse rate; no net change Website upload 2015 Page 12 of 45 Unit 9b: Equilibrium Systems Unit 9: Kinetics, Thermodynamics, & Equilibrium-lecture Regents Chemistry ’14-‘15 Mr. Murdoch 3. Physical Equilibrium: i. If the rate of a forward phase change is equal to the rate of a reverse phase change, then the system is in Physical (or Phase) Equilibrium. ii. Physical equilibrium occurs AT the phase change temperature. Remember that during a phase change, all energy input is going towards increasing the potential energy of the substance, as there is no increase in average kinetic energy (temperature) at the phase change temperature. For water, the boiling (vaporization point) at 1 atm is 373 K. This means if water is maintained in a sealed container at 1 atm and 373 K, for each water molecule that changes from liquid to gaseous, another water molecule will change from gaseous to liquid.

Views or opinions contained herein do not necessarily represent those of the Institute or of the National Member Organizations supporting the Institute. PREFACE This Research Memorandum contains the work done during the stay of Professor Dr.Sc. Jean Thoma, Zug, Switzerland, at IIASA in November 1976. It is based on extensive discussions with Professor HAfele and other members of the Energy Program. Al- though the content of this report is not yet very uniform because of the different starting points on the subject under consideration, its publication is considered a necessary step in fostering the related discussion at IIASA evolving around th.e problem of energy demand. ABSTRACT Thermodynamical considerations of energy and entropy are being pursued in order to arrive at a general starting point for relating entropy, negentropy, and information. Thus one hopes to ultimately arrive at a common denominator for quanti- ties of a more general nature, including economic parameters. The report closes with the description of various heating appli- cation.~and related efficiencies. Such considerations are important in order to understand in greater depth the nature and composition of energy demand. This may be highlighted by the observation that it is, of course, not the energy that is consumed or demanded for but the informa- tion that goes along with it.

Compare compression systems with absorption systems (Section 17.7) At the end of the lecture, the student should be able to: 1. Draw the schematic of a ammonia-water based vapour absorption refrigeration system and explain its working principle 2. Explain the principle of rectification column and dephlegmator using temperature-concentration diagrams 3. Carry out steady flow analysis of absorption systems based on ammonia- water 4. Explain the working principle of Platen-Munter’s system 5. List solar energy driven sorption refrigeration systems 6. Compare vapour compression systems with vapour absorption systems 17.1. Introduction Vapour absorption refrigeration system based on ammonia-water is one of the oldest refrigeration systems. As mentioned earlier, in this system ammonia is used as refrigerant and water is used as absorbent. Since the boiling point temperature difference between ammonia and water is not very high, both ammonia and water are generated from the solution in the generator. Since presence of large amount of water in refrigerant circuit is detrimental to system performance, rectification of the generated vapour is carried out using a rectification column and a dephlegmator.

  • Chapter 8 and 9 – Energy Balances
    CBE2124, Levicky Chapter 8 and 9 – Energy Balances Reference States . Recall that enthalpy and internal energy are always defined relative to a reference state (Chapter 7). When solving energy balance problems, it is therefore necessary to define a reference state for each chemical species in the energy balance (the reference state may be predefined if a tabulated set of data is used such as the steam tables). Example . Suppose water vapor at 300 oC and 5 bar is chosen as a reference state at which Hˆ is defined to be zero. Relative to this state, what is the specific enthalpy of liquid water at 75 oC and 1 bar? What is the specific internal energy of liquid water at 75 oC and 1 bar? (Use Table B. 7). Calculating changes in enthalpy and internal energy. Hˆ and Uˆ are state functions , meaning that their values only depend on the state of the system, and not on the path taken to arrive at that state. IMPORTANT : Given a state A (as characterized by a set of variables such as pressure, temperature, composition) and a state B, the change in enthalpy of the system as it passes from A to B can be calculated along any path that leads from A to B, whether or not the path is the one actually followed. Example . 18 g of liquid water freezes to 18 g of ice while the temperature is held constant at 0 oC and the pressure is held constant at 1 atm. The enthalpy change for the process is measured to be ∆ Hˆ = - 6.01 kJ.

This realistic approach is fully consistent with statistical mechanics, but reinterprets its partition functions as measures of translational, rotational, and vibrational action or quantum states, to estimate the entropy. With all kinds of molecular action expressed as logarithmic functions, the total heat required for warming a chemical system from 0 K (ΣSiT) to a given temperature and pressure can be computed, yielding results identical with published experimental third law values of entropy. All thermodynamic properties of gases including entropy, enthalpy, Gibbs energy, and Helmholtz energy are directly estimated using simple algorithms based on simple molecular and physical properties, without resource to tables of standard values; both free energies are measures of quantum field states and of minimal statistical degeneracy, decreasing with temperature and declining density. We propose that this more realistic approach has heuristic value for thermodynamic computation of atmospheric profiles, based on steady state heat flows equilibrating with gravity.

TES systems are used particularly in buildings and in industrial processes. This paper is focused on TES technologies that provide a way of valorizing solar heat and reducing the energy demand of buildings. The principles of several energy storage methods and calculation of storage capacities are described. Sensible heat storage technologies, including water tank, underground, and packed-bed storage methods, are briefly reviewed. Additionally, latent-heat storage systems associated with phase-change materials for use in solar heating/cooling of buildings, solar water heating, heat-pump systems, and concentrating solar power plants as well as thermo-chemical storage are discussed. Finally, cool thermal energy storage is also briefly reviewed and outstanding information on the performance and costs of TES systems are included. Keywords: storage system; phase-change materials; chemical storage; cold storage; performance 1. Introduction Recent projections predict that the primary energy consumption will rise by 48% in 2040 [1]. On the other hand, the depletion of fossil resources in addition to their negative impact on the environment has accelerated the shift toward sustainable energy sources.

Minimum energy buildings (MEBs) demand as little energy as possible, with an optimized architectural design, which includes passive solutions. In addition, these buildings consume as low energy as possible introducing efficient facilities. Finally, they produce renewable energy on-site to become zero energy buildings (ZEBs) or even plus zero energy buildings (+ZEB). In this paper, a deep analysis of the energy use and renewable energy production of a social dwelling was carried out based on data measurements. Unfortunately, in residential buildings, most renewable energy production occurs at a different time than energy demand. Furthermore, energy storage batteries for these facilities are expensive and require significant maintenance. The present research proposes a strategy, which involves rescheduling energy demand by changing the habits of the occupants in terms of domestic hot water (DHW) consumption, cooking, and washing.
