5.1 Measuring energy changes
OBJECTIVES

Enthalpy level diagrams

Examples include:
1. Combustion reactions
2. Neutralization reactions

In an exothermic reaction products:
• have less stored energy
• are more stable
• have stronger bonds (harder to break)
Heat energy change (Q)
Q = mcΔT
m = mass in g
c = specific heat capacity of the substance JK-1g-1
ΔT = change in temperature in K
wwww.mrwengibchemistry.com
Q = Heat energy change
ΔH = Heat energy change per mole
So, ΔH = Q /n
Calorimetry
• A technique used to measure enthalpy change.

Assumptions and sources of error
• That no heat is lost to or gained from the surroundings.
• Significant errors are associated with reactions:
– involving the evolution of gas
– involving combustion where hot gas is used to heat liquid in a
calorimeter.

• Heat rises & T under these conditions are reported to be
less than the literature stipulates.
• Thermometers often have precision uncertainty ± 0.1oC
or greater
Measuring Enthalpy changes graphically
Temperature is constantly changing to return to room
temperature so lines are extrapolated to calculate the
value of ∆T.

Problem 1: 1200 kJ of heat is evolved when 2 moles
of magnesium react completely with 1 mole of
oxygen. How much energy is released if 0.600g of Mg
is burnt?
H = Q/n
so Q = H x n = -600 kJmol-1 x 0.0247mol = 14.8 kJ
Problem 2: 20.0cm3 of 2M NaOH is added to
30.0cm3 HCl of the same concentration. The
temperature increases by 12.0oC. Determine the
heat released.
Total volume is 50.0cm3, water density is 1.00 g cm-
3 so mass of aqueous solution is 50.0g.

Amount of heat required to heat the water, Q
= mcT
= 50.0 g x 4.18Jg-1ᵒC-1 x 12.0ᵒC
= 2508 J or 2.51 kJ
So, 2.51 kJ is the amount of heat energy evolved in
the reaction:
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

n(KOH) = CV = 0.2mol/L(0.300 L) = 0.06 mol
n(H2SO4) = CV = 0.2mol/L(0.150 L) = 0.03 mol
For molar enthalpy of the reaction you need to watch for stoichiometric
ratios. There are 2 moles of KOH so divide by 2:
ΔH = Q/n = -13.10 kJ/0.03 moles = -109 kJ/mol
5.2 Hess's Law
OBJECTIVES
• The enthalpy change for a reaction that is carried out in a series of steps is
equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes for the individual steps.
• Application of Hess’s Law to calculate enthalpy changes.
• Calculation of ∆ reactions using ∆Hf° data.
• Determination of the enthalpy change of a reaction that is the sum of
wwww.mrwengibchemistry.com
multiple reactions with known enthalpy changes.
Hess’s Law
• In a chemical reaction the total change in
chemical potential energy (enthalpy change)
must be equal to the energy lost or gained by
the reaction system.

Solution
HoCaCO3 -1207 Hoproducts =(-796)+(-286)+(-394)
= -1476 kJ/mol
wwww.mrwengibchemistry.com
Ho HCl (aq) -167
HoCaCl2 -796
Horeactants =(-1207)+(2)(-167)
Ho H2O (l) -286 = -1541 kJ/mol
Ho CO2 (g) -394 Horeaction = -1476-(-1541) = +75 kJ/mol
Problem 2:
Calculate the enthalpy change for the burning of 11
grams of propane
