The combined heat of hydration for the ions in KBrO 3 is to be determined. Concept introduction: The enthalpy is the thermodynamic property of the system. It is defined as the sum of internal energy and the product of pressure and volume of the system. It is a state function and is independent of the path followed by the system from initial to the final state. It is an extensive property. The total enthalpy of the system cannot be measured directly so the change in enthalpy ( Δ H ) is measured. If Δ H of the reaction is positive, it is an endothermic reaction and if Δ H of the reaction is negative, it is an exothermic reaction. The enthalpy change of hydration is the enthalpy change when one mole of the ionic species is dissolved in water to give a solution of infinite dilution. It is represented by Δ H hydration . It is always negative.

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The combined heat of hydration for the ions in KBrO3 is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The enthalpy is the thermodynamic property of the system. It is defined as the sum of internal energy and the product of pressure and volume of the system. It is a state function and is independent of the path followed by the system from initial to the final state. It is an extensive property. The total enthalpy of the system cannot be measured directly so the change in enthalpy (ΔH) is measured. If ΔH of the reaction is positive, it is an endothermic reaction and if ΔH of the reaction is negative, it is an exothermic reaction.

The enthalpy change of hydration is the enthalpy change when one mole of the ionic species is dissolved in water to give a solution of infinite dilution. It is represented by ΔHhydration. It is always negative.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The ion that contributes more to the heat change of hydration in part (a) is to be determined. Also the reason for more contribution of the ion is to be given.

The degree of hydration depends on the size of the ions. If the size of ion is small it will be easily and more hydrated as compared to the larger ion. So the smaller ion contributes more to the heat change of hydration.

What spectral features allow you to differentiate the product from the starting material? Use four separate paragraphs for each set of comparisons. You should have one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR. 2) For MS, the differing masses of molecular ions are a popular starting point. Including a unique fragmentation is important, too. 3) For HNMR, CNMR and IR state the peaks that are different and what makes them different (usually the presence or absence of certain groups). See if you can find two differences (in each set of IR, HNMR and CNMR spectra) due to the presence or absence of a functional group. Include peak locations. Alternatively, you can state a shift of a peak due to a change near a given functional group. Including peak locations for shifted peaks, as well as what these peaks are due to. Ideally, your focus should be on not just identifying the differences but explaining them in terms of functional group changes.
