Spontaneity is determined by both the enthalpy and entropy of a reaction. Enthalpy, Entropy and Spontaneity Entropy (S) Nature tends toward state of lower energy. • Entropy is a measure of disorder or Many spontaneous processes are exothermic (e.g. combustion reactions have H < 0), but some randomness. spontaneous processes are endothermic (e.g. ice melting has H > 0). • Units of Entropy (S): J/Kmol Nature tends to become more disordered or random.

Wood Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry University of Delaware Newark, DE 19716, USA 4.1 Introduction Thermodynamic modeling is important for understanding and predicting phase and chemical equilibria in industrial and natural aqueous systems at elevated temperatures and pressures. Such systems contain a variety of organic and inorganic solutes ranging from apolar nonelectrolytes to strong electrolytes; temperature and pressure strongly affect speciation of solutes that are encountered in molecular or ionic forms, or as ion pairs or complexes. Properties related to the Gibbs energy, such as thermodynamic equilibrium constants of hydrothermal reactions and activity coefficients of aqueous species, are required for practical use by geologists, power-cycle chemists and process engineers. Derivative properties (enthalpy, heat capacity and volume), which can be obtained from calorimetric and volumetric experiments, are useful in extrapolations when calculating the Gibbs energy at conditions remote from ambient. They also sensitively indicate evolution in molecular interactions with changing temperature and pressure. In this context, models with a sound theoretical basis are indispensable, describing with a limited number of adjustable parameters all thermodynamic functions of an aqueous system over a wide range of temperature and pressure. In thermodynamics of hydrothermal solutions, the unsymmetric standard-state convention is generally used; in this case, the standard thermodynamic properties (STP) of a solute reflect its interaction with the solvent (water), and the excess properties, related to activity coefficients, correspond to solute-solute interactions.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The objective of this investigation was to develop a vapor pressure (VP) acquisition system and methodology for performing temperature-dependent VP measurements and predicting the en- thalpy of vaporization (ΔHvap) of volatile organic compounds, i.e. VOCs. High quality VP data were acquired for acetone, ethanol, and toluene. VP data were also obtained for water, which served as the system calibration standard. The empirical VP data were in excellent agreement with its ref- erence data confirming the reliability/performance of the system and methodology. The predicted values of ΔHvap for water (43.3 kJ/mol, 1.0%), acetone (31.4 kJ/mol; 3.4%), ethanol (42.0 kJ/mol; 1.0%) and toluene (35.3 kJ/mol; 5.4%) were in excellent agreement with the literature. The com- puted values of ΔSvap for water (116.0 J/mol∙K), acetone (95.2 J/mol∙K), ethanol (119.5 J/mol∙K) and toluene (92.0.J/mol∙K) compared also favorably to the literature.

Freshly cast rods of cadmium are shown to attain this value with time. 4. The behavior of cadmium electrodes in concentration cells is ex- plained as due to an allotropic change. 5. Crystalline electrolytic deposits of cadmium on cadmium rods or platinum are shown to give a reproducible e. m. f. when measured against an unpolarizsMe ekctrode. This e. m. f. is, however, slightly higher than that given by the gray cadmium electrodes. Amalgamated electrodes are not reproducible. 6. Photomicrographs indicate a change in crystalline form and con- firm the conclusions drawn from the e. m. f. measurements. 7. Attempts to inoculate the surface of the freshly cast cadmium with the stable rnaatian indicate that the action is extremely slow. 8.

In a series of studies which we are making on the theory of solutions, it has become necessary to distinguish between deviations from Raoult’s Law, whose cause may be considered physical, and those due to chemical changes. As has been pointed out it1 a previous paper,’ the choice be- tween the alternatives in a given case is possible if we know whether or not the pure liquids are associated.

  • Entropy and Free Energy
    Spontaneous Change: Entropy and Free Energy 2nd and 3rd Laws of Thermodynamics Problem Set: Chapter 20 questions 29, 33, 39, 41, 43, 45, 49, 51, 60, 63, 68, 75 The second law of thermodynamics looks mathematically simple but it has so many subtle and complex implications that it makes most chemistry majors sweat a lot before (and after) they graduate. Fortunately its practical, down-to-earth applications are easy and crystal clear. We can build on those to get to very sophisticated conclusions about the behavior of material substances and objects in our lives. Frank L. Lambert Experimental Observations that Led to the Formulation of the 2nd Law 1) It is impossible by a cycle process to take heat from the hot system and convert it into work without at the same time transferring some heat to cold surroundings. In the other words, the efficiency of an engine cannot be 100%. (Lord Kelvin) 2) It is impossible to transfer heat from a cold system to a hot surroundings without converting a certain amount of work into additional heat of surroundings. In the other words, a refrigerator releases more heat to surroundings than it takes from the system. (Clausius) Note 1: Even though the need to describe an engine and a refrigerator resulted in formulating the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, this law is universal (similarly to the 1st Law) and applicable to all processes. Note 2: To use the Laws of Thermodynamics we need to understand what the system and surroundings are.

  • Chemistry 130 Gibbs Free Energy
    Chemistry 130 Gibbs Free Energy Dr. John F. C. Turner 409 Buehler Hall [email protected] Chemistry 130 Equilibrium and energy So far in chemistry 130, and in Chemistry 120, we have described chemical reactions thermodynamically by using U - the change in internal energy, U, which involves heat transferring in or out of the system only or H - the change in enthalpy, H, which involves heat transfers in and out of the system as well as changes in work. U applies at constant volume, where as H applies at constant pressure. Chemistry 130 Equilibrium and energy When chemical systems change, either physically through melting, evaporation, freezing or some other physical process variables (V, P, T) or chemically by reaction variables (ni) they move to a point of equilibrium by either exothermic or endothermic processes. Characterizing the change as exothermic or endothermic does not tell us whether the change is spontaneous or not. Both endothermic and exothermic processes are seen to occur spontaneously. Chemistry 130 Equilibrium and energy Our descriptions of reactions and other chemical changes are on the basis of exothermicity or endothermicity ± whether H is negative or positive H is negative ± exothermic H is positive ± endothermic As a description of changes in heat content and work, these are adequate but they do not describe whether a process is spontaneous or not. There are endothermic processes that are spontaneous ± evaporation of water, the dissolution of ammonium chloride in water, the melting of ice and so on. We need a thermodynamic description of spontaneous processes in order to fully describe a chemical system Chemistry 130 Equilibrium and energy A spontaneous process is one that takes place without any influence external to the system.
