Hess's Law - Theory and Energy Cycles
Hess's Law Calculations |
By the end of the
lesson, the learner
should be able to:
- State Hess's Law -Explain that enthalpy change is independent of reaction route -Draw energy cycle diagrams -Apply Hess's Law to determine enthalpy of formation - Carry out calculations using Hess's Law -Draw energy level diagrams -Calculate enthalpy of formation from combustion data -Solve worked examples using energy cycles |
Introduce Hess's Law: "Energy change in converting reactants to products is same regardless of route." Use methane formation showing Route 1 (direct combustion) vs Route 2 (formation then combustion). Draw energy cycle. Calculate ΔH°f(CH₄) = -965 + (-890) - (-75) = -75 kJ/mol. Practice with CO formation example.
Work through ethanol formation: 2C(s) + 3H₂(g) + ½O₂(g) → C₂H₅OH(l). Draw energy cycle and level diagrams. Apply: ΔH°f(ethanol) = 2×ΔH°c(C) + 3×ΔH°c(H₂) - ΔH°c(ethanol) = 2×(-393) + 3×(-286) - (-1368) = -278 kJ/mol. Practice additional calculations from revision exercises. |
