Thermochemistry
Heat of Reaction :
Heat of reaction is defined as the change in heat or the amount of heat evolved or absorbed when the number
of moles of reactants react completey to give the products as given by the balanced chemical equation.

Heat of formation :
Heat of formation is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a substance is formed directly from its
constituent elements at standard states.

Heat of combustion :
Heat of combustion is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a substance is completely burnt in oxygen.

Hess's law of constant heat summation :


This law states that the total heat change in a particular reaction is the same whether the reaction takes
place in one step or in a number of steps.
e.g., H
(i) A 
 B
H1
(ii) A   H2
 C  B
According to Hess's Law H = H1 + H2.

Applications of Hess's law :


(i) To determine heat of formation
(ii) To determine heat of reaction

Enthalpy of Transition :
Enthalpy of transition is the enthalpy change when one mole of one allotropic form changes to another.
For example : C(graphite)  C(diamond) Htrsº = 1.90 kJ mol–1.

Heat of fusion :
Heat of fusion is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a solid is compltely converted into liquid state
at its melting point.

Heat of vaporisation :
Heat of vaporisation is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a liquid is completely converted into its
vapours at its boiling point.

Heat of sublimation :
Heat of sublimation is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a solid is directly converted into vapours
at sublimation temperature.

Heat of solution :
Heat of solution is the change in heat enthalpy when one mole of a substance is dissolved in excess of water
so that further dilution does not involve any heat change.

Enthalpy of Dilution :
THERMOCHEMISTRY_MEGA-XII

The enthalpy of dilution is the change in enthalpy when a solution containing 1 mole of solute is diluted from
one concentration to another.

Enthalpy of Hydration :
Enthalpy of hydration of a given anhydrous salt is the enthalpy change when it combines with the requisite
amount of water to form a new hydrated stable salt. For exmaple, the hydration of anhydrous cupric sulphate
is represented by
CuSO4(s) + 5H2O()  CuSO4 · 5H2O(s)

Enthalpy of neutralisation :
Enthalpy of neutralisation is the change in enthalpy when one gram equivalent of an acid is completely
neutralised by one gram equivalent of a base in dilute solutions.
Strong Acid + Strong Base  Salt + Water, Hºneut – 56 kJ/mol–1

Enthalpy of Ionization :
Whenever a weak acid (or base) reacts with a strong base (or acid), the release of heat is less than
57.1 kJ mol–1. It is because of the fact that these acids or bases are not completely ionized in solution.
Some of the heat is consumed in ionizing the acids and bases this heat is known as enthalpy of ionization.
Examples are :
HCN + Na+ OH–  Na+ + CN– + H2O
rHº = –12.13 kJ mol–1.

Enthalpy of precipitation is the enthalpy change when one mole of a precipitate is formed from constituents
ions (aq. form). For example :

1
Cl (g) + aq  Cl–(aq) Hrº = Hrº (Cl–, aq)
2 2
By convention, the standard enthlpy of formation of H+(aq) is taken to be zero.

Bond enthalpies :
The bond enthalpy is the average of enthalpies required to dissociate the said bond present in different
gasesous compounds into free atoms or radicals in the gaseous state.
The bond enthalpy given for any particular pair of atoms is the average value of the dissociation enthaplies of
the bond for a number of molecules in which the pair of atoms appears.

Estimation of Enthalpy of a reaction from bond Enthalpies :


Let the enthalpy change for the gaseous reaction
C2H4(g) + HCl(g)  C2H5Cl(g)
be required from the bond enthalpy data. This may be calculated as follows :

 Energy required to   Energy released to 
