Title: Spontaneity, Entropy,
1Spontaneity, Entropy, Free Energy
21st Law of Thermodynamics
- The first law of thermodynamics is a statement of
the law of conservation of energy energy can
neither be created nor destroyed. The energy of
the universe is constant, but the various forms
of energy can be interchanged in physical and
chemical processes.

4Spontaneous Processes and Entropy
- Thermodynamics lets us predict whether a process
will occur but gives no information about the
amount of time required for the process. - A spontaneous process is one that occurs without
outside intervention.

6Kinetics Thermodynamics
- Chemical kinetics focuses on the pathway between
reactants and products--the kinetics of a
reaction depends on activation energy,
temperature, concentration, and catalysts. - Thermodynamics only considers the initial and
final states. - To describe a reaction fully, both kinetics and
thermodynamics are necessary.
7The rate of a reaction depends on the pathway
from reactants to products. Thermodynamics
tells whether the reaction is spontaneous and
depends on initial final states only.
8What are some examples of spontaneous processes?
- A process that does occur under a given set of
conditions is considered spontaneous. - For example, a waterfall flows downhill, but
never up, spontaneously. - Heat flows from a warmer object to a cooler one,
but the reverse never happens spontaneously. - Iron exposed to water and oxygen forms rust, but
rust does not spontaneously change back into iron.
9Entropy
- The driving force for a spontaneous process is an
increase in the entropy of the universe. - Entropy, S, can be viewed as a measure of
randomness, or disorder. - Nature spontaneously proceeds toward the states
that have the most spread out energy, or the
highest probabilities of existing. In other
words, towards an arrangement where energy can be
contained in the greatest number of ways.
10The expansion of an ideal gas into an evacuated
bulb.
11As the number of molecules increases, the
probability of finding the molecules only in one
bulb becomes VERY small!
12Positional Entropy
- A gas expands into a vacuum because the expanded
state has the highest positional probability of
states available to the system. - Therefore,
- Ssolid lt Sliquid ltlt Sgas
- Solutions also have high entropy-accounting for
the solubility of many solids into water to form
ions in solution.
13Entropy
- Which of the following has higher entropy?
- a) Solid CO2 or gaseous CO2?
- b) N2 gas at 1 atm or N2 gas at 1.0 x 10-2 atm?
14Entropy
- What is the sign of the entropy change for the
following? - a) Solid sugar is added to water to form a
solution? - ?S is positive
- b) Iodine vapor condenses on a cold surface to
form crystals? - ?S is negative
15Predict the sign of the entropy change for each

16Temperature and Entropy
- Entropy is directly affected by temperature
changes. - Recall that kinetic molecular theory tells us
that matter is made up of particles in motion.
Temperature is a measurement of the kinetic
energy of particles in a system. - Increasing temperature increases particle
movement, increasing the disorder in a system,
increasing its entropy.
17Entropy Values
- We can make generalizations about a reactions
entropy - 2KClO3(s) ? 2KCl(s) 3O2(g)
- two mol solids ? two mol solids 3 mol gases
- Entropy appears to increase in this reaction.
- CaO(s) CO2(g) ? CaCO3(s)
- one mol solid one mol gas ? one mol solid
- Entropy appears to decrease in this reaction.
18More factors that influence entropy
19Although many factors influence the entropy of a
system, there is usually a DOMINANT source.
20Entropy for a reaction
- We can assign values to the entropy of formation
of a substance, called standard entropy, and
calculate a reactions entropy quantitatively.
Standard entropy is determined at 25C and 1 atm
(gas partial pressure) or 1 M (soln
concentration). - 2KClO3(s) ? 2KCl(s) 3O2(g)
- 143.7 J/molK ? 82.6 J/molK 205.1 J/molK
- Using ?S Sproducts Sreactants, the reaction
has a total entropy change of 493.1 J/molK - NOTE that the units are joules/mol K rather than
kJ/mol as for enthalpies. Typically smaller
energies.
Check out values in Appendix what are values for
elements? Cmpds?
21The Third Law of Thermodynamics
- . . . the entropy of a perfect crystal at 0 K is
zero. - Because S is known ( 0) at 0 K,
- S values at other temps can be calculated.
- See Appendix 4 for values of S0, which is the
entropy value of substances at 1 atm when heated
to 298K. - Review What is the zero for enthalpy values?
22Practice problems
- Calculate the standard entropy changes for the
following reactions at 25?C - (a) CaCO3(s) ?CaO(s) CO2(g)
- ?Sorxn So(CaO) So(CO2) So(CaCO3)
- ?Sorxn 39.8 J/K.mol 213.6 J/K.mol (92.9

23More Practice ?Soreaction

- 2NiS(s) 3O2(g) ---gt 2SO2(g) 2NiO(s)
- ?S? ?npS?(products) ? ?nrS?(reactants)
- ?S? (2 mol SO2)(248 J/Kmol) (2 mol NiO)(38
J/Kmol) - (2 mol NiS)(53 J/Kmol) (3 mol
O2)(205 J/Kmol) - ?S? 496 J/K 76 J/K - 106 J/K - 615 J/K
- ?S? -149 J/K gaseous molecules decreases!
24Comparing So values
- Substances with a greater freedom of motion (or
number of possible ways to move) have a greater
absolute entropy. - example I2(g) (So 261 J/K.mol) and
- I2(s) (So 117 J/K.mol)
- example CH4(g) (So 186 J/K.mol) and
- C2H6(g) (So 230 J/K.mol)

26The Second Law of Thermodynamics
- . . . in any spontaneous process there is always
an increase in the entropy of the universe. - ?Suniv gt 0
- for a spontaneous process.
27?SUniverse
- ?Suniverse is positive -- reaction is
spontaneous. - ?Suniverse is negative -- reaction is spontaneous
in the reverse direction. - ?Suniverse 0 -- reaction is at equilibrium.
28How can we predict whether a chemical reaction
will be spontaneous?
- Thermodynamics can help us determine the
direction of a spontaneous reaction, but cannot
tell us about the speed of the process (for that
we need kinetics). - Is this chemist observing
an an an exothermic or endo-
thermic reaction? - What is the sign of ?H?
29What factors are important in predicting the
spontaneity of a process?
- We know that exothermic reactions (negative ?H)
are favored since the system moves to a lower
energy state. - However, not ALL exothermic reactions will occur
spontaneously, and endothermic reactions may also
be spontaneous. - Example ice will spontaneously melt
(endothermic) at room temperature.
30ENTROPY
- The other driving force for a spontaneous process
is an increase in entropy (S) in the universe. - A reaction tends to be spontaneous if the change
in entropy (?S) is positive, and change in
enthalpy (?H) is negative. - Note -?H is really increasing entropy in
disguise! Where is entropy increasing?
31?G -- Free Energy!!!
How can we determine spontaneity using ?S and ?H?
- Two tendencies exist in nature
- tendency toward higher entropy -- ?S
- tendency toward lower energy -- ?H
- If the two processes oppose each other (e.g.
melting ice cube), then the direction is decided
by the Free Energy, ?G, and depends upon the
temperature.
32Gibbs Free Energy
- ?G ?H ? T?S (allows us to focus
from the standpoint
of the system)
A process (at constant T, P) is
spontaneous in the direction in which free energy
decreases - ??Gsys means ?Suniverse
- But, how do exothermic processes increase the
entropy of the universe??
An American physicist and founder of
thermo- dynamics at Yale! (1839-1903. 2005 stamp)
went to Hopkins and graduated from Yale at the
age of 19. He was praised by Albert Einstein as
"the greatest mind in American history".
Entropy changes in the surroundings are primarily
determined by the heat flow. An exothermic
process in the system increases the entropy of
the surroundings.
33?G, ?H, ?S
- Spontaneous reactions (shift to RIGHT) are
indicated by the following signs - ?G negative
- ?H negative
- ?S positive
34How are you feeling at this point?
The entropy of your brain must be increasing
35Temperature Dependence
- ?Ho is not temperature dependent. ?So is entropy
measured at constant 298K. - ?Go is temperature dependent, and can be
calculated for any constant temperature using the
equation - ?G ? ?H ? ? T?S ?
36?G ? ?H ? ? T?S ?
Calculations showing that the melting of ice is
temperature dependent. As temperature
increases, the Free Energy becomes lower (more
negative) -the process is spontaneous above 0oC.

reactants in their standard state are converted
to one mole of product in its standard state.

for elements in their standard states is zero. - ?G? ?np?Gf?(products) ? ?nr?Gf?(reactants)
- The more negative the value of ?G?, the further
a reaction will go to the right to reach
equilibrium.

55?G and Equilibrium
- Although a reaction with a negative ?G will move
forward spontaneously, it does NOT mean that a
reaction will go 100 to completion. - Remember, equilibrium occurs when the forward and
reverse reaction rates are equal (kinetics). - From a thermodynamic point of view, this occurs
when the reaction system is also at the lowest
value of ?G. - The relationship between K and ?Go
- ?Go -RTln(K)
56Making connections
- At any point in the reaction, the following
equation is used - ?G ?G? RT ln(Q)
- It follows that when all concentrations are
standard (1M), - Q1 ln(Q)0 and ?G ?G?
- At equilibrium,
- ?G 0 and ?G? -RT ln(Q)

57A system can achieve the lowest possible free
energy by going to equilibrium, not by going to

58Relationship between ?G and K
- ?Go -RTln(K)
- Given this equation, it follows that when
products and reactants are in their std states
and - ?Go 0, K 1
- ?Go lt 0, K gt 1
- ?Go gt 0, K lt 1
- We can use ?Go to calculate K, since K e

Q products reactants
- ?G ?G? RT ln(Q)
- Case 1 A large (-) value for ?G? will make ?G
negative also. Reaction will proceed to the
right, creating MORE products (so lnQ goes from
(-) with Qlt1 to () with Qgt1 as Q increases).
Eventually, the RT ln(Q) term becomes () enough
that ?G? is canceled out and ?G is zero
(equilib.) - Case 2 A large () value for ?G? will make ?G
positive also. Reaction will proceed right to
left, creating MORE reactants (so lnQ goes from
() with Qgt1 to (-) with Qlt1 as Q decreases).
Eventually, the RT ln(Q) term becomes (-) enough
that ?G? is canceled out and ?G is zero
(equilib.)

?Hº 134 kJ - (i) For the reaction, indicate whether the
standard entropy change, ?Sº, is positive,
negative, or zero. Justify your answer. - (i) ?Sº is negative because (1) two different
gases make a solid and a liquid (both with
smaller entropies) and (2) three molecules of
reactant make two molecules of product (a
decrease in entropy).

- (a) Consider the reaction represented below,
which is spontaneous at 298 K. - CO2(g) 2 NH3(g) ? CO(NH2)2(s)
H2O(l) ?Hº 134 kJ - (ii) Which factor, the change in enthalpy, ?Hº,
or the change in entropy, ?Sº, provides the
principle driving force for the reaction at 298
K? Explain. - (ii) natural tendency is to maximize entropy
and since this reaction decreases entropy and is
spontaneous (-?Gº), then ?Hº must be negative to
overcome the entropy change and drive this
reaction. - (iii) For the reaction, how is the value of the
standard free energy change, ?Gº, affected by an
increase in temperature? Explain. - (iii) ?Gº ?Hº T?Sº as T increases, the
value of T?Sº increases (it becomes more
positive since ?S is negative) and the value of
?Gº becomes a smaller negative number (i.e.,
moves toward zero).

- b) Some reactions that are predicted by their
sign of ?Gº to be spontaneous at room temperature
do not proceed at a measurable rate at room
temperature. - (i) Account for this apparent contradiction.
- (i) the sign of ?Gº (thermodynamics) does not
account for activation energy (kinetics) a large
activation energy would effectively prevent a
reaction even though there is a favorable free
energy change. - (ii) A suitable catalyst increases the rate of
such a reaction. What effect does the catalyst
have on ?Gº for the reaction? Explain. - (ii) a catalyst changes neither the ?Hº nor
the ?Sº for a reaction, therefore, it will have
no effect on the ?Gº.
69EXTRA Temperature Dependence of K
- y mx b
- (?H? and S? ? independent of temperature over a
small temperature range) - If the temperature increases, K decreases for
exothermic reactions, but increases for
endothermic reactions.
70Summary
- Entropy is usually described as a measure of the
disorder of a system. Any spontaneous process
must lead to an increase in entropy of the
universe. - The standard entropy of a chemical reaction can
be calculated from the absolute entropies of
reactants and products. - Under conditions of constant temperature and
pressure, the free-energy change ?G is less than
zero for a spontaneous process and greater than
zero for a non-spontaneous process. For an
equilibrium process, ?G 0.
71Summary
- 4. For a chemical and physical change at constant
temperature and pressure, ?G ?H T?S. This
equation can be used to predict the spontaneity
of a process. - 5. The standard free energy change for a
reaction, ?Go, can be calculated from the
standard free energies of formation of reactants
and products. - 6. The relationship between ?G and equilibrium
position is given by ?Go -RTln(K). - 7. The value of ?G for conditions other than
standard is calculated from ?G ?Go RTln(Q).

73Reversible vs. Irreversible Processes
- Reversible The universe is exactly the same as
it was before the cyclic process. - Irreversible The universe is different after
the cyclic process. - All real processes are irreversible -- (some work
is changed to heat). ? w lt ?G - Work is changed to heat in the surroundings and
the entropy of the universe increases.
