Chapter Name : Thermodynamics
Sub Topic Code : 102_11_06_04_03
Topic Name : Enthalpy Change ∆H Of A Reaction - Reaction Enthalpy
Sub Topic Name : Enthalpy Changes During Phase Transformations
Introduction

• Phase transformation from 1 state to another involves energy change. • This energy change at constant pressure is called as enthalpy change of phase transformation. • Enthalpy change is positive for exothermic reactions and negative for endothermic reactions. • The magnitude of enthalpy change depends on strength of intermolecular interactions.

Pre-Requisites:

• Thermodynamic terms • The state of a system • Enthalpy

Activity:

Melting of ice, evaporation of water.

Real Life Question:

How to calculate enthalpy change during phase transformation?

Key Words / FlashCards
Key Words Definitions (pref. in our own words)
Enthalpy It is same as energy at low and moderate pressure.
Standard enthalpy of fusion It is the enthalpy change that accompanies melting of one mole of a solid substance in standard state.
Standard enthalpy of vaporization It is the amount of heat required to vaporize one mole of a liquid at constant temperature and under standard pressure (1bar).
Standard enthalpy of sublimation It is the change in enthalpy when one mole of a solid substance sublimes at a constant temperature and under standard pressure (1bar).
