To find the heat of reaction, we simply add up all of the heat of formation
numbers for each compound in the reaction:
(272 mol
kJ ) (634.92 kJ ) 361 kJ
mol mol
Because the coëfficients are all one, that means we can cancel moles to give:
The last step is to change the sign of the answer. Our calculation tells us that
the enthalpy change for the reaction is −361 kJ. That means the products have
361 kJ less enthalpy than the reactants did. That energy was released as heat,
which means the heat was produced by the reaction.
N2 + O2 → 2 NO
We see that N2 and O2 are elements with an enthalpy of formation of zero, and
kJ . Because the coëfficient for NO
NO has an enthalpy of formation of +90.2 mol
is 2, this means the enthalpy of reaction is +180.4 kJ. (Using heat of reaction
with stoichiometry will be explained on the following pages.) The products have
more enthalpy than the reactants, which means we have to add energy to make
the reaction happen. This means heat is a reactant, so it goes on the left:
N2 + O2 + 180.4 kJ → 2 NO

As before, to find the heat of reaction, we add the heats of formation:
(1 408kJ) (2 387.4 kJ) 979kJ
The result tells us that the reaction produces 979 kJ of heat when the number of
moles of each reactant and product are the same as the coëfficients. (This is
sometimes described as “979 kJ per mole of reaction”.) We can write the
equation as follows:
3 Ca + 2 AlCl3 → 3 CaCl2 + 2 Al + 979 kJ
Again, notice that we changed the sign of the heat when we wrote it in the
reaction because heat is produced, which means (positive) heat is a product of
the reaction.
In this reaction, suppose we had used 4.5 mol of Ca (and excess AlCl3). To find
the heat produced, we would calculate it as if the 979 kJ were the coëfficient for
heat in the chemical equation.

Bond Energies
Unit: Thermochemistry (Heat)
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2016): HS-PS1-4
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2006): N/A
Mastery Objective(s): (Students will be able to…)
Identify the bonds in molecular compounds and look up their bond energies.
Calculate the heat produced or consumed by a reaction based on bond energy
calculations.
Success Criteria:
Bond energies have the correct sign and the correct units based on where
they appear in the chemical equation.
Heat of reaction calculated from bond energies agrees with heat of reaction
calculated from heat of formation data.
Tier 2 Vocabulary: bond
Language Objectives:
Explain how heat of reaction is calculated using bond energies.
Notes:
Ionic compounds form crystals that have straightforward ratios of cations to anions,
which means it is practical to publish a table of the heats of formation of common
ionic compounds and to calculate the heat of reaction from heat of formation data.
Molecular compounds, however, can form long chains, and there are thousands
upon thousands of common molecular compounds.
These bond energies are shown in “Table AA. Bond Dissociation Energies & Bond
Lengths” in your Chemistry Reference Tables on page 558. Note that the table is
“bond dissociation energies.” This means that the numbers represent the amount
of energy needed to dissociate (break) the bonds listed. If it takes energy (a positive
number) to break a bond, that means energy is released (a negative number) when
the bond is formed. This means we can use bond energies to calculate the enthalpy
of formation of a compound, but we need to remember that the bond energies are
negative when bonds are formed.

Note that numbers on the left are positive, because we are dissociating (breaking)
those bonds, and numbers on the right are negative because we are forming those
bonds.
As with heat of reaction calculations, we add the energies for each of the individual
molecules:
*
These are bond dissociation energies are for homolytic dissociation (i.e., the electrons are
equally split between the two atoms). Heterolytic bond dissociation energies (where the
electrons split unequally) are always higher.
This agrees with the heat of reaction that we would calculate from enthalpy of
formation data:
Compound H f molkJ
CH4 (g) −74.8
O2 (g) 0
CO2 (g) −393.5
H2O (g) −241.8
Note that adding the bond dissociation energies for a compound does not give the
compound’s enthalpy of formation. As an example, recall that the heat of formation
kJ of heat energy to break an O=O double bond.
of O2 is zero, but it takes 494 mol
Enthalpies of formation are well-defined and precise, meaning that different people
could measure them and expect to get the same answer. Average bond enthalpies,
however, can vary widely depending on which molecules were used to gather the
data. (In fact, the numbers may vary significantly from one published table to
another.)
For example, there are many different molecules with C–H bonds. The bond energy
of a C–H bond in CH4 is very different from the bond energy of a C–H bond in
acetylene.
The bond energies found in the bond energy tables for the bonds involved in the
combustion of methane are based on:
Needless to say, the basis for each of these bond energies is exactly the same as the
bonds broken or formed in the combustion of methane. It is therefore not
surprising that using bond energies gives the same result. However, it takes much
more energy to break the C−H bond in acetylene, which is part of the reason that
using bond energies does not give the correct answer for acetylene.
Because average bond enthalpies are much less accurate than enthalpies of
formation, calculating heat of reaction from bond energies should only be used for a
quick estimation, or as a last resort when heat of formation data are not available.

Collision Theory
Unit: Kinetics & Equilibrium
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2016): HS-PS1-4, HS-PS1-5
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2006): 7.5
Mastery Objective(s): (Students will be able to…)
Use collision theory to explain activation energy and when a reaction does or
does not occur.
Success Criteria:
Explanations refer to Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT).
Explanations account for the role of activation energy.
Tier 2 Vocabulary: collision
Language Objectives:
Explain the process of reactants colliding with enough energy to react and
form products.
Notes:
Recall that Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) states:
Gases are made of very large numbers of molecules.
Molecules are constantly moving (obeying Newton’s laws of motion), and
their speeds are constant.
Molecules are very far apart compared with their diameter.
Molecules collide with each other and walls of container in elastic collisions.
Molecules behaving according to KMT are not reacting or exerting any other
forces (attractive or repulsive) on each other.
ineffective collision: a collision that does not have enough energy to lead to
formation of products.
mechanism: the details of which molecules collide and in what order and
orientation in order for the reaction to take place.
reaction coördinate diagram: a graph that shows energy vs. progress of a chemical
reaction.
enthalpy of reaction (ΔHrxn): the difference between the enthalpy of the products
and the enthalpy of the reactants. The enthalpy change is the overall heat
produced or consumed by the chemical reaction.
activation energy (ΔEa): minimum kinetic energy needed for a collision to produce
the transition state (and therefore proceed to form products).
transition state (or activated complex): the configuration of all molecules at the
instant an effective collision happens. In the transition state, all of the energy
needed by the reaction has been converted to enthalpy.
Notes:
reactants: the compounds consumed in the chemical reaction; compounds that
react.
products: the compounds created by the chemical reaction; compounds that are
produced.
The reaction rate is related to the activation energy. A reaction with higher
activation energy will happen more slowly, because fewer of the collisions will
have enough energy to enable the molecules to react. Conversely, a reaction
with lower activation energy will happen more quickly.
RT
RT Ea
The equation for rate of reaction is: ln(k) or ke
Ea
Quantitative rate calculations are studied in AP® Chemistry. In this course, you
need to understand how the equation shows that a higher temperature will
speed up the reaction (larger value of k), and a higher activation energy will
slow down the reaction (smaller value of k).
rate-limiting step (or rate-determining step): the step that determines the overall
rate of the reaction. In a multi-step reaction, the rate-limiting step is the
slowest step.
A B C D
A → B will happen faster than B can get used up, so B will accumulate and the
first reaction will not affect the overall rate.
C → D will happen fast, which means as soon as C is produced, it will react to
produce D.
Therefore, the rate of B → C, which happens slowly, is what determines the
overall rate of the reaction A → D.
Homework Problems
Consider the following decomposition reaction:
2 N2O5 → 2 N2 + 5 O2
This reaction happens in three steps:
1. 2 N2O5 + 2 H2O → 4 HNO3 fast
2. 2 HNO3 → N2 + 3 O2 + H2 slow
3. 2 H2 + O2 → 2 H2O very fast
2. If you wanted to speed up the overall reaction, which of the three steps
would you try to speed up? Explain why, and give an example of how you
might do this.
Equilibrium
Unit: Kinetics & Equilibrium
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2016): HS-PS1-6
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2006): 7.6
Mastery Objective(s): (Students will be able to…)
List and explain factors that affect the equilibrium of a chemical reaction.
Write equilibrium expressions from chemical equations and chemical
equations from equilibrium expressions.
Success Criteria:
Equilibrium expressions have products on top and reactants on the bottom.
Equilibrium expressions have coëfficients shown as exponents.
Tier 2 Vocabulary: forward, backward, expression
Language Objectives:
Explain how different factors affect the equilibrium of a chemical reaction.
Notes:
reversible reaction: a reaction that proceeds in both forward and backward
directions. Usually written with double half-arrows:
N2 (g) 3H2 (g) 2NH3 (g)
The equilibrium expression comes from collision theory. In order for N2 and H2
to react, one N2 and 3 H2 molecules need to find each other. The probability of
this 4-way collision is related to the product of the concentrations of each of the
molecules involved, i.e., [N2] [H2] [H2] [H2] or [N2] [H2]3. Notice that the
coëfficients in the equation became exponents in the equilibrium expression.
The reverse reaction requires 2 NH3 molecules to collide; the probability of this
collision is the product of the concentrations, [NH3] [NH3] or [NH3]2. Again, the
coëfficient “2” became the exponent.
equilibrium constant (Keq): when we plug the concentrations (in mol ) for each of the
L
products and reactions into the equilibrium expression, we get a value for Keq.
If Keq > 1 then there are more products than reactants, and we say that the
“equilibrium lies to the right”.
If Keq < 1 then there are more reactants than products, and we say that
“equilibrium lies to the left”.
If Keq = 1 then there are equal amounts of reactants and products, and we say
that the reactants and products are equally favored.
The equilibrium constant is related to the Gibbs free energy by the equation:
G
G RT ln(Keq ) or Keq e RT
While the calculations are beyond the scope of this course, you should understand
that a higher value of ΔG corresponds with a higher value of the equilibrium
constant Keq:
Sample Problems:
Q: Write the equilibrium expression for the chemical reaction 2H2 Cl2 2HCl
A: Products go on the top and reactants go on the bottom.
Coëfficients become exponents.

K eq
[H2 ]2 [Cl2 ]
[CO2 ]4 [H2O]2
Q: Write the chemical equation for the equilibrium expression: K eq
[C2H2 ]2 [O2 ]5
A: The denominator becomes the reactants (on the left), and the numerator
becomes the products (on the right). Exponents become coëfficients:
2 C2H2 5O2 4 CO2 2H2O
[NO]2 [Br2 ]
K eq
[NOBr]2
(0.750)2 (0.200)
Keq 0.0125
3.002
Note that the units for equilibrium constants are tricky, because each
concentration is in mol
L
. This means that if a concentration is squared, the units
2
become (mol
L
)2 mol2 . This means that every equilibrium constant has its own
L
units, depending on the number of molecules that take part in the forward and
reverse reactions.
From the equilibrium expression, the units of the equilibrium constant for this
expression happens to be:
( mol )2 ( mo l

L L

(Note: you will need to divide each number of moles by 10 L to get the
concentrations in mol

Le Châtelier’s Principle
Unit: Kinetics & Equilibrium
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2016): HS-PS1-6
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2006): 7.6
Mastery Objective(s): (Students will be able to…)
Use Le Châtelier’s Principle to predict a shift in equilibrium in response to a
change.
Success Criteria:
Prediction correctly describes the shift in equilibrium when the concentration
of one chemical species is changed.
Tier 2 Vocabulary: stress
Language Objectives:
Explain how a change provokes a response.
Notes:
If a reaction is at equilibrium, the reaction will resist any change with a
corresponding change that shifts the reaction back to its equilibrium. Because Keq is
a constant, after the equilibrium shifts, the value of Keq will be the same as it was
before the change.
In plain English, if you change something, the equilibrium will shift to partly undo
the change. This principle is called Le Châtelier’s Principle, named after the French
chemist Henry Louis Le Châtelier who first proposed the idea.
Suppose we started with [N2] = 0.05 M, [H2] = 0.3 M, and [NH3] = 1.06 M.
If we add more [H2], the reaction would use more H2, and make more NH3. If we
kept adding H2 until [H2] = 0.4 M, we would have [N2] = 0.026 M, and [NH3] = 1.18 M.
As you can see, adding more H2 caused the reaction to use up more N2 and make
more NH3.
On the other hand, if we added NH3, the equilibrium would instead shift to the left
to use up some of the NH3, and make more N2 and H2.
Note that the value of Keq is different at different temperatures. Adding reactants or
products doesn’t change the value of Keq, but changing the temperature does. Le
Châtelier tells us that adding heat must shift the equilibrium to the left. The
equilibrium shift occurs because increasing the temperature results in a lower value
of Keq for this equation.
3. The value of Keq for this reaction is 4.44 at 25 °C. If the reaction is at
equilibrium at 25 °C, the concentration of H2 is 1.00 M and the concentration
of P4 is 0.025 M, what is the concentration of PH3?

Notes:
Acids are one of the first substances that come to mind when we think of chemistry.
Acids are the dangerous chemicals that mad scientists in movies throw at people,
and the chemicals that impressively dissolve metals and other substances right
before your eyes.
Acids have held this sort of fascination for centuries. The American chemist Ira
Remsen wrote the following wonderful anecdote of his first encounter with them:
While reading a text book of chemistry, I came upon the statement, “nitric acid
acts upon copper.” I was getting tired of reading such absurd stuff and I
determined to see what this meant. Copper was more or less familiar to me,
for copper cents were then in use. I had seen a bottle marked “nitric acid” on a
table in the doctor’s office where I was then “doing time!” I did not know its
peculiarities, but I was getting on and likely to learn. The spirit of adventure
was upon me. Having nitric acid and copper, I had only to learn what the words
“act upon” meant. Then the statement “nitric acid acts upon copper,” would
be something more than mere words.
I tried to get rid of the objectionable mess by picking it up and throwing it out
the window, which I had meanwhile opened. I learned another fact—nitric acid
not only acts upon copper but it acts upon fingers. The pain led to another
unpremeditated experiment. I drew my fingers across my trousers and another
fact was discovered. Nitric acid acts upon trousers.
However, not all acids are this dangerous, especially when they are more dilute. We
eat and drink vinegar (dilute acetic acid), orange juice (which contains citric acid),
and Coca-Cola (which contains phosphoric acid).
acid: a substance that can produce H3O+ ions in water, release H+ ions* in solution,
and/or accept electrons from another substance.
base: the “opposite” of an acid; a substance that can produce OH− ions in water,
accept H+ ions in solution and/or donate electrons to another substance.
* + +
Note that an H ion is a proton. Chemists often use the term “proton” in place of “H ion”
for convenience. Thus an acid is a compound that releases protons in water. These
+
protons are just the H ions—there’s no nuclear weirdness going on!
Bases
taste bitter produce OH− ions in water
feel “slippery” (like soap) (Arrhenius definition)
dissolve people (skin) accept H+ ions
(Brønsted-Lowry definition)
give electrons
(Lewis definition)
neutralization: a reaction in which an acid and a base react to produce a salt (a type
of ionic compound) plus water. For example:
HNO3 + KOH → KNO3 + H2O
(acid) + (base) → (salt) + (water)
strong base: a base that dissociates completely in water and produces OH− ions.
Strong bases include all of the group 1 hydroxides (LiOH, NaOH, KOH, etc.), plus
the group 2 hydroxides Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, and Ba(OH)2.
weak base: a base that only partially dissociates in water. NH3 is an example of a
weak base:
NH3 + H2O NH4+ + OH−
conjugates: the acid & base forms of a compound. The acid form has an extra H+
that can dissociate. The base form is the same compound without the H+.
conjugate base: the base formed by removing H+ from an acid. For example, the
conjugate base of HCl is Cl−.
conjugate acid: the acid formed by adding H+ to a base. For example, the conjugate
acid of NH3 is NH4+.
polyprotic: an acid that can lose more than one H+. For example, H2SO4 can lose
one H+ to dissociate into H+ and HSO4−. HSO4− can then lose a second H+ to
dissociate into H+ and SO42−.
Remember that an H+ ion is just a proton. A polyprotic acid is just an acid with
more than one proton that it can lose by dissociation.
amphoteric: a substance that “can go either way”—i.e., it has both a conjugate acid
and a conjugate base. For example, the HSO4− ion is amphoteric:
2. H2S 6. H2SO3
3. HCO3− 7. NH3
4. H2PO4− 8. HS−
12. H2PO4−
13. SO42−
pH & Indicators
Unit: Acids & Bases
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2016): HS-PS1-9(MA)
MA Curriculum Frameworks (2006): 8.2
Mastery Objective(s): (Students will be able to…)
Calculate pH from [H+] and pOH from [OH−].
Identify acids and bases from their pKa values.
Select an appropriate indicator for a desired pH range.
Success Criteria:
pH and pOH are calculated correctly.
Acids and bases are correctly identified from their pKa values.
Indicator changes color in a pH range that includes the pH of the given acid or
base.
Tier 2 Vocabulary: acid, base, indicator
Language Objectives:
Explain why higher [H+] results in a lower pH.
Notes:
In water, a very small amount of H2O dissociates into H+ and OH− ions:
H2O H+ + OH−
In water at 25 °C, the product of the concentrations of H+ and OH− ions (in mol )
L
is
−14
1.0 × 10 . This number is called the “water dissociation constant” Kw*. In other
words, in water at 25 °C:
* [H ][OH ]
Kw is actually the equilibrium constant for the dissociation reaction. K eq .
[H2O]
However, because H2O is a pure liquid, the concentration of H2O in pure H2O is constant—
it’s just the density divided by the molar mass, which works out to 55.6 M. Therefore, we
leave [H2O] out of the equilibrium expression.
dissociation equation:
H2O H+ + OH−
Le Châtelier’s principle predicts that if we add acid, [H+] increases. This shifts the
equilibrium to the left, which means [OH−] decreases, and it is still true that
[H+] [OH−] = 1.0 × 10−14 = Kw.
If we have exactly the same amount of acid and base, then [H+] = [OH−] and both are
equal to the square root of 1 × 10−14, which is 1 × 10−7 M. A solution with the same
amount of acid and base is said to be neutral.
Working with concentrations in scientific notation that vary over 14 powers of ten is
unwieldy, so we define a function “p” which means “take the logarithm of the
quantity and multiply the result by −1.” (See the “Logarithms” topic starting on
page 102 for a brief description of the logarithm mathematical function.)
pH: a measure of the strength of an acidic or basic solution. Equal to −log [H+].
Examples:
if [H+] = 0.001 M, then pH = −log (0.001) = 3
if [H+] = 0.000 000 01 M (= 1 × 10−8 M) then pH = −log (1 × 10−8) = 8
the pH.
Low pH = acidic = more H+ = less OH−
High pH = basic = less H+ = more OH−
Sample Problems:
Q: What is the pH of a solution with [H+] = 2.5 x 10−4 M?

50 5.476 × 10−14 6.63
100 51.3 × 10−14 6.14
In other words, despite what your previous teachers may have taught you, a pH of 7
is only neutral at 25 °C. In fact, in warm-blooded animals with body temperatures
around 37 °C, a neutral pH would be approximately 6.8.

Notes:
Acid-base chemistry is largely equilibrium chemistry in which the solvent, usually
H2O, plays a significant role.
As stated earlier, water dissociates into H+ and OH− ions. Acids and bases change
the concentrations of H+ and OH− ions in solution, which can have significant effects
on the behavior of the solution.
acid dissociation constant (Ka): is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of an
acid. For the “generic” acid HA:
[H ][A ]
Ka
[HA]
The greater the Ka value, the stronger the acid. (Remember your negative
exponents! E.g., 10−5 is greater than 10−7.)
When exactly 50 % of the acid HA is neutralized, [HA] = [A−], and the above
formula reduces to K a = [H+]. This means that pH = pK a when the acid is half-
neutralized.
base dissociation constant (Kb): is the equilibrium constant for the dissociation of a
base. For the “generic” base B:
[HB ][OH ]
Kb
[B]
We can use the concept of pKa to add to our definitions of strong acids and bases:
strong acid: an acid with a pKa lower than that of H3O+ (1.0). Strong acids include
HCl, HBr, HI, H2SO4 and HNO3.
Strong acids dissociate completely into H+ and the corresponding anion. The
dissociated H+ converts H2O molecules to H3O+ ions.
weak acid: an acid with a pKa higher than that of H3O+ (1.0), but less than 7.0 (the
pH of a neutral solution at 25 °C).
strong base: a base whose conjugate acid is weaker than H2O (i.e., whose conjugate
acid has a pKa higher than 14). Hydroxides are strong bases because they
release OH−. However, note that aqueous Mg(OH)2 acts more like a weak base
because the limited solubility of Mg(OH)2 results in a concentration of OH− that
is similar to that produced by a weak base.
Strong bases either release OH− ions directly into solution, or form OH− ions by
pulling H+ off of H2O molecules.
weak base: a base whose conjugate acid has a pKa higher than 7.0 but less than 14.
For example, if you have a fish tank, you want to keep the pH from getting too low,
you could add NaHCO3. The reaction:
H+ + HCO3− H2CO3
occurs around pH 6.4. As acid accumulates in your fish tank, it will react with the
HCO3− ions, and the pH will remain above 6.4 until all of the HCO3− ions have been
converted to H2CO3.
Buffers can work in either direction—to absorb acid or base. If you use a
combination of two buffers (one above and one below your desired pH), you can
keep the pH within a narrow range.
In fact, water acts as a buffer, but over a very wide pH range. The pH of an aqueous
solution is limited, because stronger acids just convert more H2O to H3O+, and
stronger bases just convert more H2O to OH−. The presence of water effectively
keeps the pH between 1 and 14. In fact, the reason your biology teacher taught you
that the pH range goes from 1−14 is because acid-base reactions in biology all
happen in aqueous environments.
Based on pKa values in “Table P. pKa Values for Common Acids” on page 553 of
your Chemistry Reference Tables, rank the following ten compounds in order, from
the strongest acid to the strongest base.
