Definitions [1]

Define the Enthalpy of atomization.

The enthalpy change accompanying the dissociation of all the molecules in one mole of gaseous substance into atoms is called enthalpy of atomization.

Formulae [1]

Write the mathematical equation of the first law of thermodynamics for an isochoric process.

By substituting equation W = −pex . ΔV in the equation ΔU = q + W, we get

ΔU = q − pex . ΔV  ...(1)

If the reaction is carried out in a closed container so that the volume of the system is constant, then Δ = 0. In such a case, no work is involved.

The equation (1) becomes ΔU = qv

Equation (1) suggests that the change in internal energy of the system is due to heat transfer. The subscript v indicates a constant volume process. As U is a state function, qv is also a state function. We see that an increase in the internal energy of a system is numerically equal to the heat absorbed by the system in a constant volume (isochoric) process.

State and explain Hess’s law of constant heat summation.

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that, “The change in enthalpy for a reaction is the same whether the reaction takes place in one or a series of steps.”

The Hess’s law is a direct consequence of the fact that the enthalpy is a state function, and so the enthalpy change depends only on the initial and final states of the system and not on the path by which the reaction takes place. 
Example: The conversion of A to C can take place directly
in a single step.
A → C, ΔH° = ΔH1

The reaction can also proceed in two steps, for which the ΔH° values are known.

Step (1): A → B, ΔH° = ΔH2
Step (2): B → C, ΔH° = ΔH3
______________________________
Overall: A → C, ΔH° = ΔH2 + ΔH3

According to Hess’s law, ΔH1 = ΔH2 + ΔH3. The sequence of steps is represented in the figure.
