Hess's law of heat of summation is based on law of conservation of energy. It has found significance in deriving heats of many reactions which either do not take place or if take place, than other side reactions also accompany it. For example heat of reaction for C + (1)/(2) O_(2) toCO can not be studied directly as it occurs with simultaneous reaction of oxidation of CO to CO_(2). Bond energy is referred as heat enthalpy when a bond is broken to produce isolated gaseous atoms. In case of breaking up of bonds between unlike atoms e.g., C – H bond in CH_(4), bond energy is referred as average bond energy as four C – H bonds are broken up. If C + (1)/(2) O_(2) to CO_((g)) , Delta H= -110 kJ . C + H_(2)O_((g)) to CO_((g)) + H_(2) (g) , Delta H = 132 kJThe mole composition of mixture of steam and O_(2) and steam on being passed over coke at 1273 K so that temperature remains constant is :

Heat of combustion of ethyl alcohol is 325 kcal and that of acetic acid is 209.5 kcal. Calculate the heat evolved in the following reaction : C_(2)H_(5)OH+O_(2) to CH_(3)COOH+H_(2)O

Answer»

Solution :Given that,
(i) `C_(2)H_(5)OH(l)+3O_(2)(g) to 2CO_(2)(g)+3H_(2)O(g),DeltaH=-325kcal.`
(ii) `CH_(3)COOH(l)+2O_(2)(g) to 2CO_(2)(g)+2H_(2)O(g),`
`DeltaH=-209.5kcal`
`C_(2)H_(5)OH` in EQN. (i) and in the required equation is on the same sides, wheras `CH_(3)COOH` in Eqn. (ii) and in the required equation is on the OPPOSITE sides. Hence, applying
`[Eqn. (i)- Eqn. (ii)]`, we get,
`C_(2)H_(5)OH(l)+3O_(2)(g)-CH_(3)COOH(l)-2O_(2)(g) to `
`2CO_(2)(g)+3H_(2)O(l)-2CO_(2)(g)-2H_(2)O(l),`
`DeltaH=-325-(-209.5)`
or `C_(2)H_(5)OH(l)+O_(2)(g) to CH_(3)COOH(l)+H_(2)O(l),`
DeltaH=-115.5kcal`

Heat of adsorption is greater for chemisorptions than physisorption. Why?

Answer»

Solution :In chemical adsorption, gas molecules are held to the SURFACE by FORMATION of chemical bonds. Since strong bond is formed, nearly 400 KJ / mole is given out as heat of absorption. Whereas in physical adsorption, physical forces LIKE van der Waals force of attraction exist between adsorbent and adsorbate. The various other forces that can cause physical adsorption are
(i) dipole - dipole INTERACTION
(ii) Dispersion forces
As these forces are weak, heat of adsorption is low, hence physical adsorption occurs at low TEMPERATURES.
