Hot Pack Cold Pack Exothermic & Endothermic Processes Hot Pack Cold Pack Exothermic & Endothermic Processes Lesson Plan Guiding Question:​ How do hot packs and cold packs change temperature? Overview: ​Explore endothermic and exothermic processes by making a cold pack or hot pack. Learning Goals: ● Compare and contrast endothermic and exothermic processes. ○ Exothermic Process = −ΔH The system loses energy (heat) to the surroundings. ​Graph (↓) ○ Endothermic Process = +ΔH The system absorbs energy (heat) from the surroundings.​ graph (↑) ● Recognize that​ ​enthalpy of solution​ ​depends on the combined enthalpy for two competing processes: the​ hydration enthalpy ​and lattice enthalpy. ● Observe the hydration enthalpy of ions from salts in solution. ● Calculate the enthalpy of solution using Hess’s Law. Key Concepts: ​Exothermic and Endothermic Processes, Dissociation, Enthalpy, Heat Flow, Heat of Solution Link to Simulation: ​https://interactives.ck12.org/simulations/chemistry/exothermic-and-endothermic/app/index.html Background Video If you play sports, or are generally active, you’ve probably gotten injured at some point. Maybe you’ve sprained a muscle or were hit by a ball and had to apply heat or ice to help with the pain and recovery. It isn’t always easy to keep large amounts of ice around or a hot pack warm on a rainy day. Instant hot and cold packs remain at the surrounding temperature until you need them to become really hot or really cold. The packet is filled with a solid compound, usually a salt, and a small inner pouch of water. To activate it, the pack is squeezed, which breaks open the inner water pouch, and the pack starts to change temperature! Yikes! Looks like someone was injured! Can you figure out how to make a hot pack or cold pack for them? Teacher Guide | Page 1 Simulation Overview Chemical Graph of Energy vs. Time This selector allows you to choose what ionic compound This graph shows how energy is released or absorbed as will be used in the hot/cold pack. Different salts have a result of dissolving the ionic compound. After the trial is different hydration/solution enthalpies which determine if complete, the arrow indicating the total amount of heat dissolving them in water will heat or cool the solution. dissipated or sequestered will appear.

This shows students how small changes in the Lattice enthalpy and Hydration Enthalpy of each chemical determines if it will heat or cool the solution in the pack. Teacher Guide | Page 2 Molecule Explorer Sodium Chloride - NaCl Sodium chloride, commonly known as table salt, is good for more than just making food taste good! When sodium chloride dissolves in water, each molecule of sodium chloride becomes a sodium ion (Na​+​) and a chloride ion (Cl​-​) Lattice Enthalpy = -790 kJ/mol Hydration Enthalpy = +794 kJ/mol Solution Enthalpy = +4 kJ/mol Lithium Chloride - LiCl Lithium chloride is an ionic compound that dissolves easily in water. When it is in a humid environment, it attracts water from the air. Lattice Enthalpy = -864 kJ/mol Hydration Enthalpy = +827 kJ/mol Solution Enthalpy = -37 kJ/mol Sodium Hydroxide - NaOH Unlike the other chemicals in this simulation which are salts, sodium hydroxide is a strong base. This means that, like salts, sodium hydroxide breaks apart into its ions (Na​+ and OH​-​) in water. What makes it a base and not a salt is the OH​- ion. Bases by definition are substances that dissolve in water to produce OH​- ions. Like other strong bases, sodium hydroxide is caustic, meaning that in high enough concentrations it will burn skin and should be handled with extreme care. A solution of sodium hydroxide is used to make soda and pretzels. Lattice Enthalpy = -892 kJ/mol Hydration Enthalpy = +847 kJ/mol Solution Enthalpy = -45 kJ/mol Potassium Chloride - KCl Potassium chloride is an ionic compound often used as a salt substitute for people who have too much sodium in their diets. However, sprinkling potassium chloride on your potatoes might not lead to the desired results. Most people find potassium chloride to have a bitter, not salty, taste. Lattice Enthalpy = -720 kJ/mol Hydration Enthalpy = +737 kJ/mol Solution Enthalpy = +17 kJ/mol Water - H​2​O Water dissolves so many other substances we sometimes call it "the universal solvent." Here water is the solvent and salt is the solute. You may have noticed H2​​ O is written above the arrow in the chemical equation. This is because salt dissolving in water is a physical change; it does not chemically alter the substances involved. Teacher Guide | Page 3 Real-World Connections What is a calorie? One measure of heat flow is the calorie (cal) - the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C. The term Calorie (with a capital 'C') is Why can’t we just make water? commonly used when referring to the amount of energy released by the food you eat. Calories contained within It's not that easy! In order to make water, two hydrogen food are actually kilocalories (kcal). To say that the snack atoms need to bond to one oxygen atom in an exothermic 'contains' 100 Calories means that 100,000 cal of energy reaction. The problem is that individual hydrogen and is released when that snack is processed by your body. oxygen atoms are very flammable and can result in a dangerous explosion when trying to provide the energy needed to cause them to combine. How do air activated hand warmers work? Hand warmers help to keep people warm in cold climates through the oxidation of iron when exposed to air - which is an exothermic process.

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: With the development of light and rechargeable batteries for electric vehicles, global demand for lithium has Lithium increased considerably in recent years. This has drawn more attention to how lithium is produced, especially on Brine primary extraction operations such as those at the Salar de Atacama in Northern Chile. There are concerns that Lithium Ion Batteries brine extraction at the Atacama could irreversibly damage the basin's complex hydrological system. However, Electric Vehicles differing opinions over the definition of water have frustrated basic action measures for minimizing impacts of Hydrogeology Resource Extraction operations like these. Some lithium industry stakeholders have historically described brine as a mineral, while Molecular Dynamics others emphasize that brine is also a type of water in a complex network of different water resources.

  • The S-Block Elements of the Periodic Table Are Those in Which the Last Electron Enters the Outermost S-Orbital
    Chapter-10 The s-block elements The s-block elements: The s-block elements of the Periodic Table are those in which the last electron enters the outermost s-orbital. The s-orbital can accommodate only two electrons, two groups (1 & 2) belong to the s- block of the Periodic Table. Group 1 elements: alkali metals Lithium Li Sodium Na Potassium K Rubidium Rb Caesium Cs Francium. Fr Why they are known as alkali metals? They are collectively known as the alkali metals. These are so called because they form hydroxides on reaction with water which are strongly alkaline in nature. Electronic Configuration The general electronic configuration of alkali elements is [noble gas] ns1 Lithium Li 1s22s1 or [He]2s1 Sodium Na 1s22s22p63s1or [Ne] 3s1 Potassium K 1s22s22p63s23p64s1 or [Ar]4s1 Rubidium Rb 1s22s22p63s23p63d104s24p65s1or [Kr]5s1 Caesium Cs 1s22s22p63s23p63d104s2 4p64d105s25p66s1 or [Xe] 6s1 Francium. Fr [Rn]7s1 Occurrence: Sodium and potassium are abundant and lithium, rubidium and caesium have much lower abundances. Francium is highly radioactive; its longest-lived isotope 223Fr has a half-life of only 21 minutes. All the alkali metals have one valence electron, ns1 outside the noble gas core. The loosely held s-electron in the outermost valence shell of these elements makes them the most electropositive metals. They readily lose electron to give monovalent M+ ions. Hence,they are never found in free state in nature. Atomic and Ionic Radii The alkali metal atoms have the largest sizes in a particular period of the periodic table. Withincrease in atomic number, the atom becomes larger. The monovalent ions (M+) are smaller than the parent atom.

  • Investigation Into the Potential of Mgso4 for Interseasonal Domestic Thermochemical Energy Storage
    Investigation into the potential of MgSO4 for interseasonal domestic thermochemical energy storage By Daniel Mahon Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University June 2018 © by Daniel Mahon 2018 I I. Abstract Approximately 26% of the UK’s primary energy consumption is used specifically for Domestic Space Heating (DSH) and Domestic Hot Water (DHW) production [1]. The majority of this, 88%, comes directly from gas and oil with only 2% coming from renewable energy sources [1]. Decarbonising DSH and DHW represents a huge challenge for the UK’s government which is targeting a reduction of CO2 emissions of 80% by 2050 [2]. The amount of energy utilised from renewable sources can be increased by effective Thermal Energy Storage (TES). In a domestic environment thermal energy is typically required when the energy supplied from renewable sources is low (i.e. thermal energy demand is high in the winter and low in the summer), interseasonal Thermochemical Energy Storage (TCES) offers a solution to this problem. TCES has the ability to store thermal energy from the summer months within chemical bonds and release the stored heat when required with heat losses of only around 15%. 3 Magnesium sulphate heptahydrate (MgSO4.7H2O) has the potential to store 2.8GJ/m of energy, is a low cost, non-toxic, safe material that can be dehydrated to MgSO4.0.1H2O (fully charged) at 150˚C making it suitable for domestic integration. Research has shown that when MgSO4 is used for TCES it suffers from problematic issues such as agglomeration.

  • Chapter 10 the S-Block Elements
    Chemistry (Chapter – 10) (The s – Block Elements) (Class – XI) Question 10.1: What are the common physical and chemical features of alkali metals? Answer 10.1: Physical properties of alkali metals: (1) They are quite soft and can be cut easily. Sodium metal can be easily cut using a knife. (2) They are light coloured and are mostly silvery white in appearance. (3) They have low density because of the large atomic sizes. The density increases down the group from Li to Cs. The only exception to this is K, which has lower density than Na. (4) The metallic bonding present in alkali metals is quite weak. Therefore, they have low melting and boiling points. (5) Alkali metals and their salts impart a characteristic colour to flames. This is because the heat from the flame excites the electron present in the outermost orbital to a high energy level. When this excited electron reverts back to the ground state, it emits excess energy as radiation that falls in the visible region. (6) They also display photoelectric effect. When metals such as Cs and K are irradiated with light, they lose electrons. Chemical properties of alkali metals: Alkali metals are highly reactive due to their low ionization enthalpy. As we move down the group, the reactivity increases. (1) They react with water to form respective oxides or hydroxides. As we move down the group, the reaction becomes more and more spontaneous. (2) They react with water to form their respective hydroxides and dihydrogens. The general reaction for the same is given as (3) They react with dihydrogen to form metal hydrides.

The effects of electronegativity and hydration energy on the selective adsorption, as well as potential selective adsorption mechanism of the NaX zeolite for Pb2+, Cd2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ were also discussed. The maximum adsorption capacity order of the heavy metals in the single system was Pb2+ > Cd2+ > Cu2+ > Zn2+, and this could be related to their hydration energy and electronegativity. The values of the separation factors (α) and affinity 2+ 2+ constant (KEL) in different binary systems indicated that Pb was preferentially adsorbed, and Zn presented the lowest affinity for NaX zeolite.

  • Sodium Ion Hydration: Coordination Shell Peculiarities Depending On
    Flexibility and regularity of the hydration structure of a sodium ion. Nonempirical insight Yulia V. Novakovskaya Moscow State University, Leninskie Gory 3/1, Moscow, 119991 Russia E-mail: [email protected] + Abstract: The stationary nonempirical simulations of Na (H2O)n clusters with n in a range of 28 to 51 carried out at the density functional level with a hybrid B3LYP functional and the Born- Oppenheimer molecular dynamics modeling of the size selected clusters reveal the interrelated structural and energetic peculiarities of sodium hydration structures. Surface, bulk, and transient configurations of the clusters are distinguished with the different location of the sodium nucleus (close to either the spatial center of the structure or one of its side faces) and its consistently changing coordination number (which typically equals five or six). The <rNaO> mean Na-O distances for the first-shell water molecules are found to depend both on the spatial character of the structure and the local coordination of sodium. The <rNaO> values are compared to different experimental estimates, and the virtual discrepancy of the latter is explained based on the results of the cluster simulations. Different coordination neighborhoods of sodium are predicted depending on its local fraction in the actual specimens. Key words: sodium ion hydration; sodium-water clusters; coordination number; radial distribution function; stationary nonempirical simulations; Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics; vibrational thermal energy INTRODUCTION Hydration of ions, especially alkaline metal ions which regulate numerous intra-, inter-, and extracellular processes in living organisms and are present in various current sources and electrolyte baths of different purposes, was repeatedly studied for a long time, and it may seem now that everything is already clear.

  • Free Energy Calculations of Ion Hydration: an Analysis of the Born Model in Terms of Microscopic Simulations
    4320 J. Phys. Chem. 1989, 93, 4320-4327 Free Energy Calculations of Ion Hydration: An Analysis of the Born Model in Terms of Microscopic Simulations B. Jayaram,t Richard Fine,I Kim Sharp,t and Barry Honig*Vt Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Columbia University, New York, New York 10032, and Deparzment of Biological Sciences, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027 (Received: October 4, 1988) The free energy perturbation technique is used in conjunction with Monte Carlo simulations to calculate the electrostatic contribution to the hydration free energy of a hypothetical cation whose charge varies in the range 0-3 au. The results are used to examine the validity of the continuum (Born) treatment of ion hydration. Saturation of the orientational polarizability of the water dipoles begins to become significant at values of the ionic charge of about +0.?5, a considerably higher value than predicted from a Langevin analysis. Moreover, due to the opposing effect of electrostriction on the dielectric response, the continuum prediction of a quadratic charge dependence of the hydration free energy is reproduced for values of the ionic charge up to approximately +1.1. These results suggest that dielectric saturation is insignificant for monovalent cations. Above charges of 1.1 the first solvation shell becomes fully saturated while the remaining water molecules continue to respond quadratically with increasing charge. It is argued that to within a few percent the assumptions of the Born model (without corrections for dielectric saturation) can be justified in terms of microscopic simulations. Introduction defining the cavity formed by an ion.3 Calculated solvation en- An accurate theoretical treatment of the solvation of simple thalpies based on these radii (increased uniformly by ?%) are in ions in water has been difficult to obtain despite the apparent excellent agreement with experiment even for multivalent ions.
