Answer:

Question 6.
1. What is meant by enthalpy?
2. Derive an equation for enthalpy change.
3. What is enthalpy change?
Answer:
1. Enthalpy is the sum of internal energy and pressure-volume energy.
i.e.,H = U + pV

2. ∆H = ∆U + ∆pV)
∆H = ∆U + p∆V + V∆p
At constant pressure, ∆p=0
∆H = ∆U+p∆V
But ∆U=q+w
∆H=q+w+p∆V
w = -p∆V
i.e; ∆H= q – p∆V + p∆V
∆H = q_p

3. Enthalpy change is heat absorbed or released at constant pressure.

Question 7.
1. Find the enthalpy of the reaction,
C(graphite) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)
Given,
i) C(graphite)+ ½ O₂(g) → CO(g); ∆H =-110.5 kJ mol^-1
ii) CO(g) + ½ O₂(g) → CO₂(g); ∆H =-283.0 kJ mol^-1
2. Melting of ice is a spontaneous process. What are the criteria for spontaneity of a process?
Answer:
1. Consider the reaction,
C(graphite) + O₂(g) → CO₂ (g); ∆H = x
CO₂ can also be prepared through the following two steps:
i) C(graphite)+ ½ O₂(g) → CO(g); ∆H =110.5 kJ mol^-1
ii) CO(g) + ½ O₂(g) → CO₂(g); ∆H =-283.0 kJ mol^-1
Then by Hess’s law, x = (-110.5+-283.0) kJ=-393.5 kJ

2. Certain endothermic process are found to be spontaneous in nature. Hence, spontaneous behaviour of a process cannot be explained only on the basis of energy consideration.
For a spontaneous process ∆S_Total is +ve.
For a nonspontaneous process ∆S_Total is -ve.

Question 9.
The enthalpy change for the reaction,
N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g) is -92.38 kJ at 298 K.
What is ∆U at 298 K?
Answer:
∆U = ∆H — ∆n_gRT
= -92.38 × 10³ J – [-2 × 8.314J K^-1 mol^-1 × 293 K)]
= -92.38 × 10³J +4.872 × 10³J
= -87.51 × 10³J
= – 87.51 kJ

Question 10.
What are the two types of heat capacities? How they are related?
Answer:
The two types of heat capacities are heat capacity at constant pressure (C_p) and heat capacity at constant volume (C_v). These two are related as C_p – C_v = R, where R is the universal gas constant.

Question 11.
Enthalpy and Entropy changes of two reactions are given below: Find out whether they are spontaneous or not at 27°C. Justify.
1. ∆H = 26 kJ/mole, ∆S = 8.3 J/K/mole
2. ∆H = -393.4 kJ/mole, ∆S = 6 J/K/mole
Answer:
1. ∆G = ∆H -T∆S
= 26000 – 300 × 8.3 = 23.510
Since ∆G is positive, the process is non-spontaneous.

2. ∆G = ∆H -T∆S
= -393400 – 300 × 6 = -391600
Since ∆G is negative, the process is spontaneous.

Question 12.
1. What is enthalpy of solution?
2. What is enthalpy of dilution?
Answer:
1. Enthalpy of solution is the enthalpy change associated with the addition of a specified amount of solute to the specified amount of solvent at a constant temperature and pressure.

2. Enthalpy of dilution is the heat withdrawn from the surroundings when additional solvent is added to the solution. It is dependent on the original concentration of the solution and the amount of solvent added.

Question 13.
What is the significance of the second law of thermodynamics in the spontaneity of exothermic and endothermic reactions?
Answer:
The second law of thermodynamics provides explanation for the spontaneity of chemical reactions. In exothermic reactions heat released by the reaction increases the disorder of the surroundings and overall 1 entropy change is positive which makes the reaction spontaneous.

In the case of endothermic reactions, since heat is ‘ absorbed by the system from the surroundings, the entropy change of the surroundings becomes negative (∆S_surr < 0). In this case the process will be spontaneous only if the entropy change of the reacting system is postive (∆S_sys > 0) and is also greater than ASsurr in magnitude so that the overall entropy change (∆S_total) is positive.

Question 14.
Explain the importance of third law of thermodynamics.
Answer:
The importance of third law of thermodynamics lies in the fact that it permits the calculation of absolute values of entropy of pure substances from thermal data alone. For a pure substance, this can be done by summing \(\frac { { q }_{ rev } }{ T } \) increments from 0 K to 298 K.

Question 15.

a) Thermodynamically, which type reaction is this?
b) What is enthalpy of combustion?
c) Give another example.
Answer:
a) Combustion.
b) It is the enthalpy change when one mole of a substance undergoes complete combustion in excess of air or oxygen.
c) C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Question 16.
Bond dissociation energies of hydrogen and nitrogen are 430 kJ and 41.8 kJ respectively and the enthalpy of formation of NH₃ is – 46 kJ. What is the bond energy of N-Hbond?
Answer:
3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃; AH = -46 kJ
3 × ½H₂ + ½N₂ → 2 × ½NH₃
[(3× ½ × 430) + (½ × 941 .8)] – (3N-H) = – 46
[(3 × 215) + (470.9) + (46)] → [3N-H]
[645 + 470.9 + 46] = 3N-H
N-H = 387.3 kJ

Question 4.
1. What is meant by state of the system and state variables?
2. Give any four examples for state variables/state functions.
Answer:
1. The state of a system refers to the conditions of existence of a system when its macroscopic properties have definite values. If any of the macroscopic properties of the system changes, the state of the system will change. The measurable properties required to describe the state of a system are called state variables or state functions. A state function is a property of a system whose value depends only upon the initial and final states of the system and is independent of the path by which this state has been reached. Properties whose values depend on the path followed are called path functions.

2. State variables/State functions – Temperature, Pressure, Enthalpy, Entropy

Question 5.
1. Explain the Zeroth law of thermodynamics.
2. What are the important modes of transference of energy. Explain.
Answer:
1. The Zeroth law of thermodynamics states that if two bodies say, ‘A’ and ‘B’ are in thermal equilibrium with another body say, ‘C’, then the bodies A’ and ‘B’ will also be in thermal equilibrium with each other. It provides the basis for the measurement of temperature.

2. The two important modes of transference of energy are heat and work.
Heat:
The exchange of energy, which is a result of the temperature difference between system and surroundings is called heat (q).

Work:
The exchange of energy between system and surroundings can occur in the form of work which can be mechanical work, electrical work or pressure-volume work. The exchange of energy as pressure-volume work can occur if system consists of gaseous substance and there is a difference of pressure between system and surroundings.

Question 6.

Answer:
1. Heat is represented by the symbol ‘q’. The ‘q’ is positive, when heat is transferred from the surroundings to the system and ‘q’ is negative when heat is transferred from system to the surroundings.
Work is represented by the symbol ‘w’. The ‘w’ is positive when work is done on the system and ‘w’ is negative when work is done by the system.

2. i) ∆_fH = \(\frac{-1840}{2}\) = -920 kJ mol^-1
ii) Heat liberated during the formation of 1 mole (36.5 g) of HCl = 920 kJ
∴ Heat liberated during the formation of 365 g of HCl = 9200 kJ

Question 11.
Derive Meyer’s relationship.
Answer:
We have, q = C × ∆T
At constant volume, q_v = C_v × ∆T = ∆U
At constant pressure, q_p = C_p × ∆T = ∆H
For 1 mole of an ideal gas,
∆H = ∆U + ∆(pV) = ∆U + ∆(RT) = ∆U + R∆T
∴ ∆H = ∆U + R∆T
On putting the values of ∆H and ∆U,
C_p∆T = C_v∆T + R∆T
C_p = C_v + R
C_p – C_v = R, which is Meyer’s relationship.

Answer:
1. If ∆H is -ve and ∆S is +ve, ∆G would certainly be -ve and the process will be spontaneous at all temperatures.
If both ∆H and ∆S are – ve ∆G would be -ve if ∆H > T∆S
If both ∆H and ∆S are + ve ∆G would be -ve if T∆S > ∆H
If ∆H is +ve and AS is -ve, ∆G would certainly be +ve and the process will be non-spontaneous at all temperatures.

∆G = (-20.5 × 10³)-(298 ×-50.4)
= – 20500 + 15019.2 = – 5480.8 J mol^-1
Since ∆G is -ve, the process is spontaneous.
