General InformationGeneral Information
"Thermodynamics""Thermodynamics", is the study of , is the study of the energy changes or transfers the energy changes or transfers accompanying physical and accompanying physical and chemical processeschemical processes

""spontaneousspontaneous" - a process can " - a process can occur (not necessarily fast)occur (not necessarily fast)
""non-spontaneousnon-spontaneous" - a process " - a process cannot occurcannot occur
General InformationGeneral Information many spontaneous rxns many spontaneous rxns
release heat energy = release heat energy = "exothermic";"exothermic";
products have less E than products have less E than reactants ("downhill") reactants ("downhill") (see diagram)(see diagram)
some rxns absorb energy some rxns absorb energy = "endothermic" = = "endothermic" = products have more products have more energy than the reactants energy than the reactants ("uphill") (see diagram)("uphill") (see diagram)

General InformationGeneral Information not all exothermic rxns are not all exothermic rxns are
spontaneous; not all spontaneous; not all spontaneous rxns are spontaneous rxns are exothermic, exothermic, so some other factor so some other factor must influence spontaneitymust influence spontaneity

NOTE: Since we know it’s Products Minus Reactants, we’ve already changed the signs of the reactants.
S = +606.4 J/K
A high positive value would be expected when solids turn to liquids or liquids turn to gas since +S means more disorder

the change in enthalpy when a chemical the change in enthalpy when a chemical rxn occurs is due primarily to the rxn occurs is due primarily to the energy energy required to break the chemical bonds in required to break the chemical bonds in reactantsreactants and the and the energy produced by energy produced by forming the chemical bonds in the productsforming the chemical bonds in the products (breaking of bond = "bond dissociation") (breaking of bond = "bond dissociation")
all bond dissociations are all bond dissociations are ENDOthermicENDOthermic because energy must be supplied to break because energy must be supplied to break bonds; therefore, bonds; therefore, all BE's are + valuesall BE's are + values
