What is Energetics?
Energetics is the study of energy changes associated
with chemical reactions.
Thermochemistry is the study of heat changes associated
with chemical reactions.
Some terms
Enthalpy(H) = heat content in a substance
Enthalpy change(H)
= heat content of products - heat content of reactants
= Hp - Hr

6.2 Enthalpy Changes Related to Breaking and Formation of Bonds? (SB p.143)
Enthalpy Changes Related to Breaking and
Forming of Bonds
e.g. CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O
In an exothermic reaction, the energy required in breaking the bonds
in the reactants is less than the energy released in forming the bonds
in the products (products contain stronger bonds).

6.3 Standard Enthalpy Changes (SB p.144)
Standard Enthalpy Changes
CH4(g) + 2O2(g)  CO2(g) + 2H2O(g) H = -802 kJ mol-1
CH4(g) + 2O2(g)  CO2(g) + 2H2O(l) H = -890 kJ mol-1
As enthalpy changes depend on temperature and pressure,
chemists find it convenient to report enthalpy changes based
on an internationally agreed set standard conditions:
1. elements or compounds in their normal physical states;
2. a pressure of 1 atm (101325 Nm-2); and
3. a temperature of 250C (298 K)

enthalpy change when one mole of water is formed from the
neutralization of an acid by an alkali under standard conditions.
e.g. H+(aq) + OH-(aq)  H2O(l)

Standard Enthalpy Change of Solution
The standard enthalpy change of solution (Hsoln) is the enthalpy
change when one mole of a solute is dissolved to form an
infinitely dilute solution under standard conditions.
e.g. NaCl(s) + water  Na+(aq)+Cl-(aq) Hsoln=+3.9 kJ mol-1
e.g. LiCl(s) + water  Li+(aq) + Cl-(aq) Hsoln=-37.2 kJ mol-1

Standard Enthalpy Change of Formation
The standard enthalpy change of formation (Hf) is the enthalpy
change of the reaction when one mole of the compound in its

Hess’s Law states that the total enthalpy change
accompanying a chemical reaction is independent of
the route by which the chemical reaction takes place.
Why?

6.5 Hess’s Law (p. 158)
Importance of Hess’s Law
The enthalpy change of some chemical reactions
cannot be determined directly because:
• the reactions cannot be performed in the
laboratory
• the reaction rates are too slow
• the reactions may involve the formation of side
products
But the enthalpy change of such reactions can be
determined indirectly by applying Hess’s Law.
