Calorimetry

Heat changes are measured in calorimetry. There are two principal types of heat that can be

measured.

conditions. Symbol qp This quantity is equal to the enthalpy change: pqΔH

38

conditions. Symbol qp This quantity is equal to the enthalpy change:

(2) Heat changes measured under constant volume conditions. Symbol qV This quantity is equal to the change in the internal energy:

pqΔH

VqΔE

39

Which quantity is measured, qp or qV, will depend on the type of calorimeter used to make the experimental measurements.

40


A device which is open to the atmosphere will give qp, i.e. the enthalpy change.

41



A device that is a sealed container, that is one having a fixed volume, will yield qV, i.e. the internal energy change.

A device that is a sealed container, that is one having a fixed volume, will yield qV, i.e. the internal energy change.

The enthalpy and the internal energy are connected by the formula:

Calorimetry Heats of combustion are usually measured in a

calorimeter.

calorimeter. A known mass of the sample is placed in a steel

container which is filled under pressure with oxygen gas. The sample is ignited electrically, and the temperature rise in the surroundings indicates the amount of heat given off.

calorimeter. A known mass of the sample is placed in a steel

container which is filled under pressure with oxygen gas. The sample is ignited electrically, and the temperature rise in the surroundings indicates the amount of heat given off.

The surroundings are a known mass of water plus the actual calorimeter device. The assumption is usually made that no heat is lost to the outside world.

48

The heat capacity of the calorimeter is determined using a compound for which the heat of combustion is accurately known.

49

Example: If a given amount of a standard compound releases 2.000 x 104 J, and that raises the temperature of 1000.0 g of water in the calorimeter by 2.00 oC, determine the heat taken up by the calorimeter. For water, c = 4.18 Jg-1 oC-1.

= (1000.0 g) (4.18 Jg-1 oC-1)(2.00 oC) = 8.36 kJ

51

Now: heat released = heat gained + heat gained by sample by water by calorimeter

52

Now: heat released = heat gained + heat gained by sample by water by calorimeter

Therefore: heat gained = 2.000 x 104 J - 0.836 X 104 J by calorimeter = 1.164 x 104 J

53

The heat capacity of the calorimeter is:

1.164 x 104 J = 2.00 oC

= 5.82 x 103 J oC-1

Sample Calculation A 0.569 g sample of benzoic acid is burned in a

constant volume bomb calorimeter. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 3.36 x 103 J/oC. If the temperature rise registered in the 500.0 g of water in the calorimeter is 2.05 oC, calculate the heat given off by the benzoic acid in kJ/mol.

The chemical reaction is :

C6H5COOH + 15/2 O2 7 CO2 + 3 H2O

56

The heat gained by the water: = 500.0 g x 4.18 Jg-1 oC-1 x 2.05 oC = 4.28 x 103 J

Tcmq

57

The heat gained by the water: = 500.0 g x 4.18 Jg-1 oC-1 x 2.05 oC = 4.28 x 103 JThe heat gained by the calorimeter:

= 3.36 x 103 JoC-1 x 2.05 oC = 6.89 x 103 J

TCq

58

The total heat gained by the calorimeter + water contents = 4.28 x 103 J + 6.89 x 103 J

= 1.117 x 104 J

59


= 1.117 x 104 J So we can write the following equivalence statement: 0.569 g benzoic acid 1.117 x 104 J

60


= 1.117 x 104 J So we can write the following equivalence statement: 0.569 g benzoic acid 1.117 x 104 JThe molar mass of benzoic acid = 122 g/mol
