Document Summary

Revisiting thermochemistry: thermochemistry: branch of chemistry that deals with the heat involved in chemical and physical changes, first law of thermodynamics: the energy of the universe is constant. Endothermic reaction: heat must be absorbed, h > 0. Exothermic reaction: heat is given off, h < 0. Just knowing if a rxn is exothermic or endothermic doesn"t necessarily determine if a rxn will occur on its own or if an external driving force is required for the rxn to occur. Suniverse = ssystem + ssurroundings > 0. Entropy is a state function: s = sfinal - sinitial. If s < 0 (negative) increased disorder = favorable decreased disorder = unfavorable: focus on the number of moles of gas: Entropy: third law of thermodynamics: entropy (s) for a perfect crystal at 0 k is zero. All particles in the crystal have minimum energy, so there is only one microstate no disorder. It is possible to calculate the absolute entropy of a substance.

Some of the processes in Model 1 are spontaneousâthat is, they will occur without any additional work being done on the system. For example, a solute will diffuse across a membrane until the concentrations of both sides are equal. However, glucose will not spontaneously form from carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere. The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that a process will be spontaneous when it results in an increase of total entropy in the universe. In other words, either the system or the surroundings must have an increase in entropy, or both. (Please note that the term âspontaneousâ does not imply that the change will happen quickly. Rusting is spontaneous under the right conditions, but it can still occur very slowly.)
