Energy and the First Law of Thermodynamics: We have discussed in the previous discussion the connection of energy with the first law of thermodynamics. From this point, we are interested to calculate the change in internal energy of the system and determine whether the process is endothermic or exothermic: (a) A balloon is cooled by removing 0.655 kJ of heat. It shrinks on cooling, and the atmosphere does 382 J of work on the balloon. (b) A 100.0-g bar of gold is heated from 25 °C to 50 °C during which it absorbs 322 J of heat. Assume the volume of the gold bar remains constant. (c) The surroundings do 1.44 kJ of work compressing gas in a perfectly insulated cylinder.

When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter. In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 5.26 g of CsClO4(s) are dissolved in 103.30 g of water, the temperature of the solution drops from 22.98 to 19.81 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.79 J/°C. Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of CsClO4(s) in kJ/mol. Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water.

Copper has been used for thousands of years, either as a pure metal or in alloys. It is frequently used today in the production of wires and cables. Copper can be obtained through smelting or recycling. Determine the energy associated with each of these processes in order to recycle 1.40 mol Cu. The smelting of copper occurs by the balanced chemical equation: CuO(s) +CO(g) → Cu(s) +CO,(g) where AHtCuo is = - 155 kJ/mol. Assume the process of recycling copper is simplified to just the melting of the solid Cu starting at 25°C. The melting point of Cu is 1084.5°C with AH®fus = 13.0 kJ/mol and a molar heat capacity, CPCU = 24.5 J/mol:°C.

A bomb calorimeter, or constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy available from foods. Since the "bomb" itself can absorb energy, a separate experiment is needed to determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter. This is known as calibrating the calorimeter. In the laboratory a student burns a 0.461-g sample of 2-naphthylacetic acid (C12H1002) in a bomb calorimeter containing 1150. g water. The temperature increases from 24.70 °C to 27.20 °C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J g1 oC-1. The combustion enthalpy is -5779 kJ/mol 2-naphthylacetic acid.
