ENERGY CHANGES IN PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROCESSES

Bond Breaking, Formation and Phase Changes
Determination of Enthalpy of Solution

By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
- Explain that energy changes are due to bond breaking and bond formation
-Investigate energy changes when solids and liquids are heated
-Define latent heat of fusion and vaporization
-Calculate energy changes using bond energies

Class experiment: Heat ice to melting then boiling, record temperature every minute. Plot heating curve. Explain constant temperature periods. Define latent heat of fusion/vaporization. Calculate energy changes in H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl using bond energies. Apply formula: ΔH = Energy absorbed - Energy released.

Standard Conditions and Standard Enthalpy Changes
Hess's Law - Theory and Energy Cycles
Hess's Law Calculations
Lattice Energy and Hydration Energy

By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
- Define standard conditions for measuring enthalpy changes
-Use standard enthalpy notation ΔH°
-Apply correct notation for different types of enthalpy changes
-Explain importance of standardization for comparison
- Carry out calculations using Hess's Law
-Draw energy level diagrams
-Calculate enthalpy of formation from combustion data
-Solve worked examples using energy cycles

Q/A: Review enthalpy measurements. Define standard conditions: 25°C (298K) and 1 atmosphere (101.325 kPa). Introduce ΔH° notation where θ denotes standard. Show subscripts: ΔH°c (combustion), ΔH°f (formation), ΔH°neut (neutralization), ΔH°sol (solution). Practice using correct notation in thermochemical equations.
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.

Definition and Types of Fuels
Fuel Selection Factors
Environmental Effects and Safety

By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
- Define a fuel
-Classify fuels into solid, liquid and gaseous types
-Define heating value of a fuel
-Calculate heating values from molar enthalpies of combustion

Define fuel as "substance producing useful energy in chemical/nuclear reaction." Classify: solids (coal, charcoal, wood), liquids (petrol, kerosene, diesel), gases (natural gas, biogas, LPG). Define heating value as "heat energy per unit mass." Calculate for ethanol: -1360 kJ/mol ÷ 46 g/mol = 30 kJ/g. Compare values from Table 2.8.
