THERMODYNAMICS

It is the branch of chemistry which deals with the energy changes taking place during physical and chemical changes.

SYSTEM

A system is that part of universe which is under investigation .

SURROUNDINGS

The part of the universe other than the system is known as surroundings.

Thus, Universe = System + Surroundings

In simple case surroundings implies air or water both.

TYPES OF SYSTEM

Open system - A system which can exchange matter as well as energy with surroundings.
Closed system – A system which can exchange energy and not matter with surroundings.
Isolated system - A system which can exchange neither matter nor energy with surroundings.
Homogeneous system – A system consisting of one phase only e.g. pure solid, a liquid or a mixture of gases.
Heterogeneous system – It may consists of two or more phases e.g. a solid in contact with liquid etc.

STATE OF SYSTEM

The condition of existence of a system when its macroscopic properties have definite values is known as state of system e.g. at 1 atm pressure H2O is (a) Solid below 0°C, (b) liquid between 0°C - 100°C and (c) gas above 100°C.

MACROSCOPIC PROPERTIES

The properties which arise out of collective behaviour of large number of chemical entities e.g. pressure, volume, temperature, composition, colour, refractive index etc.

EXTENSIVE PROPERTIES

The properties which depend upon the quantity of the substance or substances present in the system e.g. volume, enthalpy, free energy, entropy, heat capacity.

INTENSIVE PROPERTIES

The properties which are independent of the quantity of the substance present in the system e.g. density, molar volume, temperature, melting point, boiling point, freezing point etc.

Note – Any extensive property if expressed as per mole or per gm becomes intensive property e.g. mass and volume are extensive properties but density is an intensive property.

STATE VARIABLES AND STATE FUNCTIONS

These are the macroscopic properties of the system which change with the change in the state of system. They depend upon the initial and final state of system. They are temperature, pressure, volume, chemical composition, energy, entropy, free energy.

INTERNAL ENERGY, INHERENT ENERGY OR HIDDEN ENERGY (IE)

It is the sum of all types of energies (as given below) associated with a system or substance.

Translational energy of the molecules, Et
Rotational energy, Er
Vibrational energy, Ev
Electronic energy, Ee
Nuclear energy, En
Interaction energy of molecules, Ei

E = Et + Er + Ev + Ee + En + Ei

It is a state function, depends upon chemical nature of the substance, amount, temperature, pressure etc. Its absolute value cannot be determined but change during a chemical process can be determined.

+ve change is endothermic

- ve change is exothermic

Internal energy depends on temperature, pressure, volume and quantity of matter. In most stable form the internal energy of an element is zero.

INTERNAL ENERGY CHANGE (E)

It is the amount of heat evolved or absorbed when a chemical reaction is carried out at constant volume and constant temperature. It is measured in bomb calorimeter.

Where, C= Heat capacity of calorimeter

T = Rise in temperature

M = Molecular mass of the substance

W = Mass of the substance taken

MODES OF THE TRANSFER OF ENERGY

Exchange of energy between system and surroundings can take place by

(a) Heat (b) Work

EXPRESSION FOR PV WORK

The mathematical expression for pressure-volume work is

SIGN CONVENTIONS :

Heat absorbed by the system is positive +ve
Heat evolved by the system is negative –ve
Work done on the system is positive +ve
Work done by the system is negative –ve

PROCESSES AND THEIR TYPES

Process - The operation by which a system changes from one state to another state is called process
Reversible process - If the driving force is only infinitesimally greater than the opposing force and process can be reversed at any instant, it is known as reversible process.
Irreversible process - It does not take place infinitesimally slow.

THERMODYNAMIC PROCESSES

Isothermal process (T = 0) : During each stage of process, the temperature remains constant. If the process is exothermic heat is given out to surroundings, If the process is endothermic heat is absorbed from surroundings.
Adiabatic process (dq=0) : No heat leaves or enter the system, temperature of a system rises in exothermic process, temperature falls in endothermic process.
Isobaric process : Pressure remains constant, only volume changes.

volume decreases

volume increases

Isochoric process : Volume remains constant but pressure changes.

pressure decreases

pressure increases

Cyclic process : After undergoing a number of changes, the system returns to its original state. In cyclic process

THERMODYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

When there is no change in macroscopic properties with time. The types are :

Thermal equilibrium - The temperature of the system remains constant throughout and no heat flows from one part to another part of system.
Mechanical equilibrium - The pressure remains constant and no mechanical work is done by one part of system on another part.
Chemical equilibrium - The composition of various phases remains the same.

FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

Law of equivalence of different forms of energies
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
Total energy of universe is conserved (fixed, constant)

MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION OF FIRST LAW

If q is the amount of heat absorbed by the system and w is the work done on the system, the change in internal energy,

If volume remains constant, no work is done then

Note :- q and w are not state functions but the sum of the two (q + w) which represents is a state function

DISCUSSION OF EQUATION

(i) when

If heat is absorbed by system, internal energy increases.

If heat is lost by system, internal energy decreases.

(ii) when

If work is done on the system, internal energy increases.

If work is done by the system, internal energy decreases.

In adiabatic process work is done by the system at the expense of internal energy.

(iii) when

Heat absorbed by the system is equal to work done by the system

If we write w = - q

If work is done on the system (when

) heat flows from system to surroundings.

(iv) Cyclic process,

E = 0, q = –w

Work done by the system is equal to heat absorbed.

SIGNIFICANCE OF E

It represents the heat change taking place during the process occurring at constant volume and constant temperature.

qv = ΔE

ENTHALPY (H) AND ENTHALPY CHANGE (H)

Enthalpy is the heat content of the system and related to internal energy as follows.

H = E + PV

We can measure change in enthalpy and not absolute value of enthalpy. It is a state function.

Hproducts – H Reactants= HP – HR

If HP > HR, the change is endothermic. If HR > HP, the change is exothermic.

SIGNIFICANCE OF H

The enthalpy H is given by

H = E + PV

the change in enthalpy is given by when pressure is kept constant

P = 0,

; (From first law of thermodynamics)

The enthalpy change represents the heat change taking place during the process occurring at constant pressure and constant temperature.

FACTORS AFFECTING THE H

Physical state of reactants and products
Quantities of reactants and products
Allotropic forms
Temperature
Conditions of constant P and Constant V at a particular temperature.

KIRCHOFF’S EQUATION

If reaction takes place at constant pressure, the variation of with temperature is given by this equation

Cp = Difference in the heat capacities of products and the reactants at constant pressure.

If the reaction takes place at constant volume.

=Difference in the heat capacities of products and the reactants at constant volume.

STANDARD ENTHALPY

The enthalpy change at the standard conditions i.e. at 1 atm pressure and 298K temperature is called standard enthalpy of the reaction and is denoted by

RELATION BETWEEN H AND E:

It is given by

, where

n = (Number of moles of products - number of moles of reactants) gaseous only.

APPLICATIONS OF FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

HESS’S LAW OF CONSTANT HEAT SUMMATION

Law is based upon the first law of thermodynamics and states that if a chemical change can be made to take place in two or more ways involving one or more steps, the net amount of heat change in the complete process is the same regardless of the method employed.

APPLICATIONS OF HESS’S LAW

During expansion in vacuum

Pext = 0, work done = 0, also

i.e. expansion work or work done by system.

then Wirr is +ve i.e. compression work or work done on the system.

HEAT CAPACITY OF A SYSTEM

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the system by 1 degree (K or °C)

In case of single substance, when m=1 g, C is the specific heat of system; when m = Mg or 1 mole, it is molar heat capacity. Since heat capacity varies with temperature its true value is given by

Heat capacity at constant volume

Heat capacity at constant pressure

where

are specific heats at constant pressure and constant volume respectively

Cp and Cv are molar heat capacities at constant pressure and constant volume respectively

Dulong and Petit’s rule : Atomic mass × specific heat = 6.4

The rule is valid for solid elements except Be, B, Si and C.

Units : In SI units the specific heat or molar heat is expressed in terms of Joules ( 1 Cal = 4.184 J)

Molar heat capacity of a monoatomic gas at constant volume

Molar heat capacity of a monoatomic gas at constant pressure :

Molar heat capacity for polyatomic gas at constant volume :

Molar heat capacity for polyatomic gas at constant pressure :

For monoatomic gas X=0, for diatomic gas X=R and for triatomic gas

LIMITATION OF FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

It fails to predict the feasibility and the direction of the change.

SPONTANEOUS PROCESS

A process which has an urge or a natural tendency to occur either of its own or after proper initiation under a given set of conditions. It is irreversible process and may only be reversed by some external agents.

Spontaneous processes that need no initiation

Evaporation of water H2O (l) H2O (g)
Dissolution of sugar

Intermixing of gases

Spontaneous processes that need initiation

Electrolysis of water

It requires continuous supply of energy.

SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

The entropy of the universe increases in every spontaneous (natural) change. The entropy of the universe is continuously increasing.

Other statements of second law of thermodynamics

Clausius : Heat cannot itself pass from a colder body to a hotter body.
Kelvin : It is impossible to get a continuous supply of work from a body or engine which can transfer heat from a single heat reservoir.
Planck : It is impossible to construct a device which will work in a single complete cycle and convert heat into work without producing any change in the surroundings.
All natural and spontaneous processes take place in one direction and thus are irreversible in nature.
In a reversible process the entropy of the universe is constant. In an irreversible process the entropy of the universe increases.

Entropy (S)

It is a measure of degree of disorder or randomness in a system. More the disorder or randomness, the more is entropy.Heat added to a system increases randomness and hence the entropy. Heat added to a system at lower temperature causes greater randomness than the system at higher temperature. At higher temperature the system already has higher randomness. Thus entropy change is inversely proportional to temperature.

S =

For a spontaneous process

STotal =

Ssystem +

Ssurr > 0

Suniverse >0

Units of entropy :

Jmol-1K-1; It is a state function. The change in entropy is represented by

S = (Sfinal – Sinitial) = qrev / T

qrev is the heat absorbed by the system in a reversible manner and isothermally.

For isobaric process

For isochoric process

GIBB’S FREE ENERGY (G)

It is the maximum amount of energy which can be converted into the useful work (other than PV work). It is related to enthalpy (H) and entropy (S) as follows.

and change is given by

Useful work

HELMHOLTZ FREE ENERGY (WORK FUNCTION) (A)

The maximum work obtainable from a system is given by this energy.

A = E - TS ; E= Internal energy, S = Entropy, T= Temperature

CRITERIA FOR FEASIBILITY OR SPONTANEITY OF A PROCESS

Enthalpy or entropy alone cannot predict the spontaneity of a change. Gibb’s free energy is very useful factor for this

G = H – TS

G =

H – T

S (at constant T)

STotal =

Ssys +

Ssurr > 0

Ssurr =

Since, Heat lost by system = Heat gained by surroundings and vice versa.

STotal =

Ssys +

STotal = T

Ssys –

Hsys

= –(

Hsys – T

Ssys)

= –(

Hence,

If is negative, the process is spontaneous
If is zero, the process is in equilibrium
If is Positive the process does not occur

, the process is reversible.

Internal energy : When entropy and volume kept constant

, the process is irreversible and if

Enthalpy (H) : When entropy and pressure are kept constant
, the process is irreversible and if , the process is reversible.
Work function (A) : When temperature and volume are kept constant

, the process is irreversible and if , the process is reversible.

Note : Criteria of feasibility or spontaneity in terms of free energy is most important since most of the processes are carried out at constant temperature and pressure.

ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

If two bodies have separately equality of temperature with a third body, they also have equality of temperature with each other.

THIRD LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS

At absolute zero temperature, the entropy of a perfectly crystalline substance is taken as zero. This law was formulated by Nernst in 1906.

Calculation of absolute value of entropy:

Let S0 be the entropy of substance at 0 K and S be its entropy at T K.

Where Cp is the heat capacity of the substance at constant pressure. According to the third law

The value of the integral can be obtained from a plot of
CP / T Vs T. The area under the curve between 0 and T K gives the value of the integral and hence of S at temperature T.

CLAPEYRON - CLAUSIUS EQUATION

It gives the change in pressure dP accompanying change in temperature dT or vice versa for a system containing two phases of a pure substance in equilibrium, q is heat exchanged reversibly per mole of the substance during the phase transformation at temperature T.

EFFICIENCY OF CARNOT CYCLE OR ENGINE

Since
