Chemical Reactions: Energy, Rates, and Equilibrium
Energy and Chemical Bonds
• Chapter 6– Kept a careful
accounting of atoms as they rearranged themselves
• Reactions also involve a transfer of energy
Energy and Chemical Bonds
• Two fundamental kinds of energy. – Potential energy is stored
energy. – Kinetic energy is the
energy of motion.
• Law of Conservation of Energy– Energy can be converted
from one kind to another but never destroyed
Energy and Chemical Bonds
• A chemical– Potential - attractive forces in an ionic
compound or sharing of electrons covalent compound
– Kinetic – (often in form of heat) occurs when bonds are broken and particles allowed to move
Heat Changes during Chemical Reactions
• Bond dissociation energy: The amount of energy that must be supplied to break a bond and separate the atoms in an isolated gaseous molecule.
Heat Changes during Chemical Reactions
• Bond breakage requires energy to be added to the system (+ energy)
• Bond formation gives off energy as the bonds form (- energy)
Heat Changes during Chemical Reactions
• Heat of reaction: (Enthalpy)– Represented by H– is the difference between the
energy absorbed in breaking bonds and that released in forming bonds
• Endothermic: – More energy is required than
released. H is positive
• Exothermic: – More energy is released than
required H is negative
Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
Problem
• Br2 (l) → Br2 (g) ΔH = 7.4 kcal/mol
– Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic– Is this reaction spontaneous with respect to
enthalpy?
• 2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O + 239.5 kcal
– Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic?– What is the sign of ΔH?
Why do Chemical Reactions Occur? Free Energy
• Events that lead to the system having less energy are said to be spontaneous with respect to enthalpy– Exothermic reactions are spontaneous– Why would endothermic reactions occur?
• Free Energy (ΔG)– Enthalpy – ΔH – heat of reaction– Entropy (S)
Entropy
• Entropy – measures the spreading out of energy – universe moves toward disorder
– Entropy favored system is one that goes from a concentrated area of energy to the energy being more spread out
• ΔS is positive
– Unfavorable process involves concentrating the energy into less area
• ΔS is negative
Why do Chemical Reactions Occur? Free Energy
Problem
• Identify each of the following as entropy favored or disfavored. For each state the sign of the ΔS.– Assembling a jig-saw puzzle
– I2 (g) + 3F2 (g) → 2 IF3 (g)
– A precipitate forming when two solutions are mixed– Demolition of a building
– CS2(g) + 4H2(g) → CH4(g) + 2H2S(g)
– 2HBr(g) → H2(g) + Br2(g)

Problem
• H2 (g) + Br2 (l) → 2 HBr (g)
– Is this reaction spontaneous with respect to entropy?
– If the ΔH = -17.4 kcal/mol is the reaction spontaneous with respect to enthalpy?
– If the ΔH = -17.4 kcal/mol and ΔS = 27.2 cal/mol K, is the reaction spontaneous with respect to free energy?
– What is the value of ΔG at 300 K?
Problem
• Given the reaction:
8 Al(s) + 3 Fe3O4(s) --> 4 Al2O3(s) + 9 Fe(s) + 3350 kJ
– Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?– The sign of ΔH should be positive or negative?– According to enthalpy, is the reaction favored or not favored?– According to entropy, is the reaction favored or not favored?– The sign of ΔS should be positive or negative?– Calculate Gibb’s free energy for this reaction at 25oC if
ΔS=215.1 J/K and has the sign you determined in part e.– Is the reaction favored according to free energy?
How do Chemical Reactions Occur? Reaction Rates
G indicates whether a reaction will occur– But how fast will it occur?– To what extent does the reaction occur?
Rates of Reaction
• Rate of Reaction – How fast does a reaction go?
• Properly oriented collisions• Sufficient energy to break the bonds of the
reactants
– Factors affecting collisions and energy• Concentration of reactants• Temperature of system
How do Chemical Reactions Occur? Reaction Rates
• Orientation
How do Chemical Reactions Occur? Reaction Rates
• Sufficient energy – Energy of activation
Effects of Temperature, Concentration, and Catalysts on Reaction Rates
Effects of Temperature, Concentration, and Catalysts on Reaction Rates
• A third way to speed up a reaction is to add a catalyst—a substance that accelerates a chemical reaction but is itself unchanged in the process.
• A catalyzed reaction has a lower activation energy.
Problem
Chemical Equilibrium
• Equilibrium – To what extent a reaction occurs
Reversible Reactions and Chemical Equilibrium
• Many reactions result in complete conversion from reactant to product.
• Many however do not
Chemical Equilibrium
Equilibrium Equations and Equilibrium Constants
• Consider the following general equilibrium reaction:
aA + bB + … mM + nN + …
– Where A, B, … are the reactants; – M, N, …. are the products; – a, b, ….m, n, …. are coefficients in the balanced
equation. – At equilibrium, the composition of the reaction mixture
obeys an equilibrium equation.
Equilibrium Equations and Equilibrium Constants
• The value of K varies with temperature.
Problem
• Write an equilibrium constant equation for
– N2(g) + 3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)
– FeCl3(aq) + 3NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)3(s) + 3NaCl(aq)
Equilibrium Equations and Equilibrium Constants
• K larger than 1000: Reaction goes essentially to completion.• K between 1 and 1000: More products than reactants are
present at equilibrium.• K between 1 and 0.001: More reactants than products are
present at equilibrium.
• K smaller than 0.001: Essentially no reaction occurs.
Problem
• Indicate the primary substance or substances in the reaction vessel given the K values of the reactions
– 2CO(g) + O2(g) → 2CO2(g) K = 1.4 x 102
– H2O (l) + HNO2(aq) → H3O+(aq) + NO2-(aq) K = 4.50 x 10-4
LeChatelier’s Principle: The effect of Changing Conditions on Equilibia
• Le Châtelier's Principle: When a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the equilibrium shifts to relieve the stress.
• The stress can be any – change in concentration– pressure– Volume– temperature that disturbs original equilibrium.
