The enthalpy of formation is given by the symbol h̅ f 0, where the subscript f refers to the formation of the compound from its elements, and superscript (0) indicates that all reactants and products are at the standard state. The enthalpy of formation of a compound is defined as the enthalpy change that accompanies the formation of 1 mole of the compound at the standard reference state from elements at the same state. With this standard reference state established, enthalpies of all species have a common base. If an element has two or more stable forms, that form which is stable at 25☌ is chosen as reference. It was conventionally agreed to assign a zero value to the enthalpy of elements in their most stable forms at a standard state of 1 standard atmospheric pressure and 25☌ (77☏). To establish an enthalpy scale of elements and compounds, it is first necessary to choose an arbitrary datum for zero enthalpy.
Combustion may be defined as a rapid exo-thermic reaction between a fuel and an oxidizer in which chemical energy is liberated. Clearly, then, complex interactions are involved, and problems of calculation of product composition can be handled only by considering both laws simultaneously.Īlthough, the principles outlined here apply to any chemical reaction, particular attention will be given to an important class of chemical reactions, the combustion processes. The second law dictates that the composition of the products depends on temperature and pressure, whereas the first law dictates that the temperature and pressure of the product depend on their composition. Third, equilibrium composition is determined by relationships that arise indirectly from the second law of thermodynamics. Hence, this gives attention to calculation of flame temperatures of combustible mixtures. Thus dictates that the total energy be conserved, just as the total ass is. Second, the resultant temperature and pressure of product mixtures depend upon the first law of thermodynamics.
We shall therefore consider the calculation of elemental composition of various mixtures and examine the laws of stoichiometry which apply in chemical reactions. This requires that the total quantity of each chemical element in the product mixture be the same at that in reactants. For one thing, the composition of the products of reaction is affected by material balance considerations. The nature of the product species, their proportions, their temperature, and their pressure depend upon three major controlling factors.
