  • 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. Universe = System + Surroundings universe Matter Surroundings (Huge) Work System Matter, Heat, Work Heat 1.

  • 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.

Raola 20-1 Santa Rosa Junior College Chapter 20 Thermodynamics: Entropy, Free Energy, and the Direction of Chemical Reactions 20-2 Thermodynamics: Entropy, Free Energy, and the Direction of Chemical Reactions 20.1 The Second Law of Thermodynamics: Predicting Spontaneous Change 20.2 Calculating Entropy Change of a Reaction 20.3 Entropy, Free Energy, and Work 20.4 Free Energy, Equilibrium, and Reaction Direction 20-3 Spontaneous Change A spontaneous change is one that occurs without a continuous input of energy from outside the system. All chemical processes require energy (activation energy) to take place, but once a spontaneous process has begun, no further input of energy is needed. A nonspontaneous change occurs only if the surroundings continuously supply energy to the system. If a change is spontaneous in one direction, it will be nonspontaneous in the reverse direction. 20-4 The First Law of Thermodynamics Does Not Predict Spontaneous Change Energy is conserved. It is neither created nor destroyed, but is transferred in the form of heat and/or work. DE = q + w The total energy of the universe is constant: DEsys = -DEsurr or DEsys + DEsurr = DEuniv = 0 The law of conservation of energy applies to all changes, and does not allow us to predict the direction of a spontaneous change. 20-5 DH Does Not Predict Spontaneous Change A spontaneous change may be exothermic or endothermic. Spontaneous exothermic processes include: • freezing and condensation at low temperatures, • combustion reactions, • oxidation of iron and other metals.

  • General Chemistry II Chapter 18 Lecture Notes Entropy, Free Energy and Equilibrium
    General Chemistry II Chapter 18 Lecture Notes Entropy, Free Energy and Equilibrium The Three Laws of Thermodynamics 1. Energy can never be created or destroyed, only altered in form 2. The entropy (disorder) of the universe is always increasing. The entropy of a system increases in a spontaneous process 3. The entropy of a substance can be zero only for a perfect crystalline substance and only at 0 K. Spontaneous Processes and Entropy Chemical and physical changes may be spontaneous or nonspontaneous. The spontaneity of a process is driven both by enthalpy change (a negative ∆H favoring the forward reaction) but also by the increase in entropy, or disorder of the system. A more disordered product is more likely to form than a more ordered one. Most exothermic processed such as fuel burning are spontaneous, but a few endothermic processes such as solution of sodium nitrite in water (ice pack) can also be spontaneous. An important factor in the spontaneity of a process is the increase in entropy (disorder) of the system. A system at equilibrium does not undergo an entropy change, because net change is not occurring. Ex: The combustion of glucose is highly spontaneous both because it is exothermic and because there is a large increase in entropy. Try to imagine the reverse reaction occurring spontaneously by the assembly of glucose from carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. A simple way to understand the entropy of a physical spontaneous process is the distribution of gas molecules between two connected flasks, starting with just one gas molecule. Entropy Facts: • Entropy units are joules/K · mol.

The hydrolysis of ATP (ATP → ADP), a spontaneous process, can be coupled to a non- spontaneous reaction to drive the non-spontaneous reaction forward. ATP ADP The resulting ∆Gº of the coupled reaction is the sum of the individual ∆Gº values. First, let’s calculate the ∆Gº for ATP hydrolysis at 310 K (body temperature) given that ∆H° = -24 kJ/mol (from Lecture #17) and ∆S° = +22 J/K•mol. ∆Gº = ∆Hº - T∆Sº ∆Gº = -24 kJ/mol – 310 K (0.022 kJ/mol) ∆Gº = -31 kJ/mol of ATP hydrolyzed Note: the calculated free energies are under standard conditions.

  • Thermodynamics of Biological Systems
    Thermodynamics of Biological Systems Thermodynamics: A collection of laws and principles describing the flow and interchange of heat, energy and matter in a system of interest. Thermodynamics allows us to determine whether a chemical process or reaction will occur spontaneously (in the direction written). Thermodynamics does not tell us about rates (that’s kinetics!). First Law of Thermodynamics: The total amount of energy in an isolated system is conserved, though the form of the energy may change. Second Law of Thermodynamics: In all natural processes, the entropy of the universe increases. Thermodynamic Concepts: The system is the portion of the universe we are concerned with; everything else is the surroundings. The system + surroundings = universe Closed system: No exchange of energy or matter closed system surroundings Isolated system: Energy exchange occurs isolated system energy surroundings Open system: Energy or matter exchange occurs open system Never at equilibrium!! energy matter surroundings 3 Thermodynamic quantities describe energy changes in living systems: 1. Gibbs Free Energy (G): The amount of energy capable of doing work during a reaction at constant temperature and pressure. When the system changes to possess less energy (free energy is released) then the free energy change (∆G) is negative and the reaction is exergonic (SPONTANEOUS!). 2. ENTHALPY: The heat content of a system (H). When a chemical reaction releases heat, it is exothermic and has a negative ∆H. 3. ENTROPY: Randomness or disorder of a system (S). When the products of a reaction are less complex and more disordered than the reactants, the reaction proceeds with a gain in entropy (positive ∆S).

  • Spontaneity Entropy the Second
    Spontaneity A process or reaction is spontaneous if it happens without external intervention. There are two factors that determine if a process will be spontaneous or not: Enthalpy- Reactions that give off energy tend to be spontaneous. Entropy- Entropy is a measure of the randomness or disorder in a system. Generally reactions that increase the randomness of the system are spontaneous. To understand if a reaction will be spontaneous we need to consider both of these factors. Entropy Entropy(S) is a function that describes the possible ways that a system can be arranged. It is possible to calculate the absolute entropy of a system by calculating all the possible microstates of a system. While entropy can be calculated directly we generally are more interested in determining the change in entropy ∆S. Most often we are not going to calculate the actual value for ∆S. We will only need to determine the sign for ∆S. We need to think most about positional entropy. The Second Law The second law of thermodynamics states that for any spontaneous process the entropy of the universe increases. We want to be able to deal with reactions from the point of view of the system. We can do this because the ∆S of the surroundings depends on the heat flow and the temperature the surroundings are at. To determine if a process is going to be spontaneous or not we need to determine if the ∆S of the universe is positive. We generally do this by looking at a function known as Gibb’s free energy.
