The rotational partition function

energy levels. The sum over levels has the form

If the levels are sufficiently closely spaced relative to thermal
energy then the sum can be written as an integral

The molecular partition functionThe molecular partition function
The molecular partition function is the product of the Individual partition functions rotation, vibration and translation:

Average energy and heat capacityWe have seen that the internal energy can be written as:
E = ∂ln Q
Many books write the energy as E (physics and statistical
E = – ∂β
mechanics), however, in thermodynamics we often writeit as U. They are the same thing.
∂ln Q
We have seen that the heat capacity is the derivative of
U = – ∂ln Q∂β
We have seen that the heat capacity is the derivative of the energy with respect to temperature.
∂UCv = ∂U∂T v
Heat capacity for a diatomic or polyatomic molecule
The derivative can be rewritten asThe derivative can be rewritten as∂∂β = – kT2 ∂
∂T or ∂∂T = – kβ2 ∂
∂β
Therefore the heat capacity can also be written as
C = – kβ2 ∂U = kβ2 ∂2ln Q
Recalling that Q = qN/N! we can also write the internal
Cv = – kβ ∂β v= kβ
∂β2v
Recalling that Q q /N! we can also write the internalenergy and heat capacity in terms of the molecular partitionfunction.

The contribution of rotationThe contribution of rotationThe contributions of the translational, rotational and ib ti l titi f ti t th i t lvibrational partition functions to the internal energy can
be made separately. The fact that they can be writtenas logarithms helps greatly. The rotational contributiong p g yto the energy and heat capacity for a diatomic is:
ln(qrot) = ln(Krot) – ln(β)(q ) ( rot) (β)
U = N ∂lnβ∂β = N

Consequences of including rotation
We have seen that the internal energy and heat capacityf t i id lof a monatomic ideal gas are:
Um = 32RT C m = 3
2R
These were derived from the translational partition function(see lecture 4) In this lecture we have formally included
Um 2RT , Cv,m 2R
(see lecture 4). In this lecture we have formally includedThe contribution from rotations for a diatomic molecule.The internal energy and heat capacity of a diatomic
l lmolecule are:Um = 5
2RT , Cv,m = 52R
Rotation of polyatomic moleculesDiatomic molecules have two rotational degrees of freedomand polyatomic molecules have three rotational degrees offreedom. The partition function for a polyatomic can be written as:
rot 8π2IAkT 1/2 8π2IBkT 1/2 8π2ICkT 1/2
qrot = π A

It is immediately obvious that the contribution from rotations

is Urot = 3/2RT and Cv,rot = 3/2 R. The total values are:
Um = 3RT , Cv,m = 3R
The contribution of vibrationsThe contribution of vibrationsThe vibrational partition function has a different form thaneither the rotational or translational One important differenceeither the rotational or translational. One important differenceis that the energy of vibrational modes is not zero at absolute zero. The zero point energy is 1/2hν. To properlyaccount for this zero point energy we will need to introducea reference internal energy, Uo, which is the zero point energy.The vibrational partition function is:p
qvib =exp – βhω
2q =1 – exp – βhω
ln(qvib) = – βhω2 – ln (1 – exp – βhω )2
The contribution of vibrationsThe contribution of vibrationsThe first term is the zero point energy:
Uo =∂ βhω
2∂β = hω
2
The second term is the population of higher vibrational levels:
β
Uvib =∂ ln (1 – exp – βhω )
∂β =exp – βhω hω
1 – exp – βhω
To see how big this term is let’s consider the function in termskT (i.e. 1/β). We will make a substitution x = hν/kT. If vibrational energy levels are larger than thermal energyhν >> kT, then x >> 1.
The contribution of vibrationsThe contribution of vibrationsThe second term is the population of higher vibrational levels:
Uvib =exp – x x

The function is plotted to theright. Note that the y-axis g yunits of RT are appropriate for a molar energy (kJ/mol) and kT in the aboveand kT in the above expression is appropriate for a single molecule J.
The pressureThe pressureBased on the definition of pressure volume work dU = PdV so thatdU = -PdV so that

The index j comes from the fact that we are going to averageover an ensemble (collection) of j systems. We are assuming

( ) j y gthat the number of molecules and volume of each system isthe same. Using our previous definition for the calculationof a molecular property the average pressure is:of a molecular property the average pressure is:
P = pj N ,V,βΣj
Pj N ,V
Little pj is the probability.
The pressureSubstituting in we find:
P = p N V βΣ ∂Uj = e– βE j(N,V)
Σ ∂Uj
Since the derivative is with respect to volume, the pressure
P = pj N,V,βΣj

The average pressure can then be written as

With this definition in hand we can also write the thermodynamicfunction of enthalpy in terms of the partition function.
H = U + PV = – ∂ln Q∂β + V

Differential relationships for enthalpy
We have defined a relationship between the enthalpy andWe have defined a relationship between the enthalpy and Internal energy
H = U + PVThe infinitesimal change in the state function H results inThe infinitesimal change in the state function H results in
H + dH = U + dU + (P + dP)(V + dV)Therefore
dH = dU + PdV + VdPNow we substitute dU = δq + δw into this expression
dH = δq + δw + PdV + VdPdH δq δw PdV VdPSince δw = - PdV
dH = δq + VdPAt constant pressure dP = 0 and we haveAt constant pressure, dP = 0, and we have
dH = δqP
A note on using current flow in l i t tcalorimetry measurements
Energy is measured in Joules. Electrical energy is used to delivery heat in calorimetry applications. In electrostaticsthe units of energy are:
Joules = Coulombs * VoltsJoules Coulombs VoltsJ = CV
Coulomb is a unit of charge and volt is a unit of potential.A charge moving through a potential is a little like a waterfallA charge moving through a potential is a little like a waterfall.The problem here is that we need a dynamic descriptionsince “moving charge” is not “static”.

We often talk about calories in the food we eat. The calorieon a cereal box is equal to 1000 calories in the chemicalnomenclature. 1 calorie = 4.184 Joules. Therefore, the,Intake required for an average man of 12 MJ/day is about 3000 calories per day (in the sense of diet).
Thermodynamic cyclesThe energies and enthalpies of ionic solids are dominated by Coulombic interactions. The lattice enthalpy can be y pycalculated from Coulombic interactions. Using the calculated lattice enthalpy and experimental data one can obtain the enthalpy of formation of an ionic solid by meansobtain the enthalpy of formation of an ionic solid by means of the Born-Haber cycle. This is illustrated on the next slidefor a generic salt of a monovalent ion M+X-.
The reactions needed to obtain M+X- in the solid phase to M+ + X- in the vapor phase are given below. The overall p p gprocess of separating the ions in an ionic solid into the constituent ions is written asM+X- (s) M+ (g) + X- (g)M X (s) M (g) + X (g)Lattice enthalpy

This is necessary for ionic solids because it is essentially i ibl t di tl th di i ti th limpossible to directly measure the dissociation enthalpy. The dissociation enthalpy is equal to the enthalpy of formation (but opposite in sign). The above cycle and the reasoning applied will allow us to determine with some the forces between ions due to Coulombic interactions.
Dependence of internal energy h i l d t ton changes in volume and temperature
We have seen from the first law that the internal energychange in the system is equal to the work done and thechange in the system is equal to the work done and theheat transferred. Work depends on volume changes andheat transfer leads to changes in temperature. Thus, it islogical that the initial description of internal energy dependson volume and temperature. Thus, for example the depend-ence of U on volume at constant temperature is:p
U′ = U + ∂U∂V T
dV
And similarly the dependence of U on temperature at constant volume is:
T
∂UU′ = U + ∂U∂T V
dT
Dependence of internal energy h i l d t ton changes in volume and temperature
Putting these together we have:g g
U′ = U + ∂U∂V T
dV + ∂U∂T V
dT
which can be written as the total derivative:
dU = ∂U dV + ∂U dT
This called the total derivative. The idea is that it includes the
dU = ∂U∂V T
dV + ∂U∂T V
dT
variables in a space. Here the space is V,T space. We shallsee that these are not the only possible variables that candescribe the dependence of Udescribe the dependence of U.

We have already seen CV and we know it as the heat capacityAt constant volume. However, πV is new. πV is the change in
fthe internal energy when the volume of a substance is changed at constant temperature.
If the intermolecular interactions are zero (ideal gas), then πVwill be zero. However, real interactions between moleculescan give rise to non-zero π Joules set out to measure πcan give rise to non-zero πV. Joules set out to measure πVin an expansion experiment, but was not successful.

In order to proceed with the next level of analysis we intro-p yduce the expansion coefficient:
α = 1V
∂V∂T
The expansion coefficient is a measure of the change in molar volume (i.e. also inverse density) of a material with
V ∂T P
temperature. Many substances expand as the temperatureis increased, hence the name, expansion coefficient.The isothermal compressibility is p y
a measure of the degree to which a substance will have a

a measure of the degree to which a substance will have ahigher density (smaller molar volume) at high pressure.
Heat capacity relationshipsp y p
The heat capacity at constant pressure and constant volumep y pare related by:
CP – CV = nR
The above expression applies only to an ideal gas. We haveseen the utility of that expression in that it applies to monatomic, diatomic and polyatomic gasses.
For liquids and solids we have the formula:q

∂H∂P = – ∂T
